- Tuition (Deep Yoga): $1,800–$3,800 USD by program length

- Visa + insurance + personal: $250–$800 USD combined
How this calculator works
- Tuition reads from our published course pricing (the same number on each course page). Includes shared accommodation, all meals, materials, and Yoga Alliance certification.
- Flight cost ranges come from industry-average fares to Delhi by source country (Skyscanner, Kayak, IATA aggregates). Founder re-verifies quarterly.
- Visa fee uses the official Government of India e-Tourist visa rate card. Lean season (Apr–Jun) is $10 for the 30-day tier; standard rates apply otherwise.
- Insurance uses a conservative $50–$180 range for a residential program with medical evacuation coverage.
- Personal expenses uses a $150–$600 range based on what graduates actually report spending — Tapovan is inexpensive.
- Comparison strip applies destination-specific tuition multipliers (Bali 1.85×, Costa Rica 2.4×, Europe 3.2×) sourced to the BookYogaRetreats 2025 market analysis. Flights/visa/insurance are held constant since they don't change with destination.
Always confirm current flight prices on Skyscanner / Google Flights and current visa fees at indianvisaonline.gov.in before paying. This calculator is for budgeting, not for booking.
