Most MPYPCP batches combine live classes, demonstrations, and guided self-practice. Your exact timetable, contact-hour plan, and internal assessments are confirmed on the programme page after admission — use it together with the official YCB syllabus PDF below.

Who is this level for?

Learners interested in yoga therapy support roles under proper supervision and national norms — not a substitute for medical degrees.

Role in real programmes

Assistant Yoga Therapists learn to support structured therapeutic sessions under qualified supervision, maintain meticulous notes, and recognise when a case belongs with medical specialists — never overstating what yoga can replace.

In simple words

This level introduces therapeutic application under YCB. MPYPCP maps it to the Certificate Course in Yoga Therapy; always follow scope-of-practice and YCB exam requirements.

Remember: MPYPCP provides training; YCB certifies through its MIS portal (enrolment fee, exam fee, PrCB or accredited centre, exam calendar). See official-style steps on our YCB page. हिंदी मार्गदर्शिका

Syllabus, PDF & how MPYPCP covers it

The AYTh PDF outlines introductory therapy-support competencies and safety rails. MPYPCP's six-month institute rhythm blends theory clinics, supervised practice, and reflective assignments. Keep your institute's logbooks and case discussion notes — they double as exam revision material.

What you will be ready for

  • Introductory therapeutic yoga orientation and safe boundaries
  • How to assist structured therapy-style sessions as per training
  • Assessment literacy at the level defined by the YCB syllabus
  • Professional conduct in wellness or therapy-support settings

Fees: training vs certification

MPYPCP (institute)

Pays for tuition, mentor support, internal assessments, and campus logistics on your chosen programme. Amounts, instalment choices, and what is included are always listed on the linked course page plus central fee information.

YCB (national exam)

When you register for certification you pay YCB enrolment and examination fees yourself via the YCB MIS portal. MPYPCP does not collect those government charges on your behalf.

Two steps students follow

  1. Join MPYPCP training — open the programme above, complete admission, attend classes, and finish internal requirements.
  2. Book the YCB exam — when ready, use YCB Registration, pay YCB fees, and choose PrCB or accredited centre and exam date per YCB how-to-apply.
