On Date; my student and I departed ZZZ1 in Aircraft X at approximately XA40 local time. While maneuvering over the ZZZ practice area at 4;000 feet MSL; our engine quit. We began turning towards my chosen landing site on [an] island as I was troubleshooting. I had my student run the 'Power loss in flight' checklist followed by the 'If no restart & time permits' checklist.We were unable to restart the engine so I continued setting up for a forced landing. During the rollout; we contacted a dirt berm which allowed us to decelerate and come to a complete stop in approximately 200 feet. We landed at approximately XB20 local time. Both my student and I sustained no injuries.
C172 instructor pilot reported engine failure during training and performed an off airport landing.
