Look, there are about 36 hours of audio/video lectures and some sections are in text. But just listening to the lectures is not enough for your learning.
We recommend taking your own notes and completing the assignments.
This will take minimum 120 to 150 hours of your time.
So if you devote 2 hours a day, everyday,  for 3 months then you should be able to complete it.
However, if you want to do it thoroughly, then we recommend listening to the lectures, reading the transcripts, reading the e-books, doing the assignments . This might take upto 6 months if done slowly but with dedication.

Once you enrol in the course, you will see a link ‘Ask a question’.
Your questions will be answered by Dr. Vartika Dubey, who has more than 35 years of immersion in the philosophy and practice of yoga.
