Great training program from the origin of yoga. The teachers are amazing. Very intensive training that lasts 25 days for live classes (almost 5-6 hours daily) and more hours on reading and taking tests. The teachers are very thorough and communicative. Students are from all over the world. Highly recommend!!!

Arohan yoga is simply the best teachers training institute, it’s world class. The course is very well structured and delivered by an amazing set of teachers, making the online experience very real and close to an in-person one. The teachers set this program apart from any other. Each one is unique, knowledgeable and caring in their own way. A big thank you to Neeraj, Melmar, Vikas and Ravi for sharing so much and bringing out the best in everyone of your students. Feel really fortunate to have trained under your guidance and becoming part of the Arohan family.

Thank you very much Arohan yoga School, thank you Vikas, Ravi, Melmar, Neeraj and the whole class…It was wonderful to study at your school 200 h yoga ttc (and with the challenge of the pandemic - online study! )Thanks for the lessons, I learned and practice new things (like hatha yoga, yin yoga, breathing techniques, cleansing techniques, anatomy, philosophy and more…) and with the help of that I deepened (physically, intellectually and mentally) the practice of yoga .Hopefully I will also be able to physically visit your school to meet face to face and learn more ...NamasteAdva

I was part of the August 2021 online 200 hour Yoga TTC and gained tremendous insight into Yoga, Anatomy, Philosophy, and Ayurveda. The training pace and the learning curve are perfect, provided you dedicate yourself to them seriously. Discipline is key!This experience was possible thanks to a team of knowledgeable and professional instructors. I am so grateful to have been part of this learning journey. Thank you Melmar, Ravi, Vikas and Neeraj ! 🙏

I would highly recommend Arohan yoga school to anyone who is looking to dive deeper into their yoga practice and pursue yoga as a career.All the teachers were knowledgeable, punctual and professional. I thoroughly enjoyed all classes- theory and practicals.

Best place you can find for your online 200 hr teacher training course, with knowledgeable teachers who are creating a very friendly atmosphere. When I was looking at the reviews I saw many people wrote it was one of the best decisions they made, and I feel the exact same way! I could improve a lot over the 25 days course and learnt a lot about philosophy and anatomy, not to mention the deep insight to the three yoga styles: hatha, ashtanga and yin. All this for a very humble price, you can also count on the guidance of the teachers after you finished the course. The schedule was tough, but managable over the 3-4 weeks, it is also possible to take longer if needed as all classes are recorded, but make sure to attend live as well, it really gives an extra boost. Cant wait to visit the community in person in Rishikesh.

Arohan was such a lovely yoga school and experience. I not only learned from great teachers who are humble and extremely knowledgeable, I also learned a great deal about how to adjust my mind and spirit in my every day life. I have made a good friend from the class too and am happy that this could happen even online. I am so grateful for Arohan and would recommend the online class to anyone interested in improving their yoga -- not just flexibility or strength, but their yoga way of life!

I have just finished the 200h online TTC and it was an amazing experience. I did the yin yoga+Ashtanga Vinyasa+Hatha and ALL teachers are really good. I felt really confident about my skills as a teacher and it have been two weeks that Im also working as an Yin yoga teacher (felt in love with ir!!). Also really enjoyed the Anatomy and philosophy course. Be prepared because the course in one month demands a LOT of our body and mind. Thank you for the experience. 💜💜💜

If you are looking for a 200h online teacher training AND you have 25 days to spare AND you can participate in live sessions for at least 5 hours a day (except Sunday) AND you would want to get an insight into three different yoga styles – THEN Arohan Yoga is your choice.This is why: 1) live classes: except one of the theoretical parts (either philosophy ore anatomy) everything is life. This is a big advantage compared to other online yoga TTCs. The relationship between student, teachers and class-mates is wonderful and motivating. You get to know great people from all over the world and youll learn that good people are everywhere. It is so interesting to chat with your teachers and class-mates. The teachers will stay your teachers for the rest of your yoga-life ;o) There is one prerecorded theory session, but you can always use the second live theory session to talk about the contents and ask your questions. It is also possible to do it as self-paced training, but it would be a pity not to do it live 2) Arohan Yoga has great teachers. They are able to motivate you in a way that you suddenly dont want to miss a lesson and you want them to be pleased with your performance. We had a Yin teacher by the name of Melmar - she is such a nice person and she made Yin Yoga one of my favorite things to do. Then there is Vikas, who teaches Hata Yoga. He also is great. I loved especially his Mantra chanting and he would make sure you are doing the poses correctly at all times. He always goes into what is important for you. And he simply is a nice person who wants to spread the word about yoga and what it can do for the world. Number three is Ravi - he is the Ashtanga teacher. He would also make a good drill instructor ;-) But a friendly one. He also manages to motivate you in such a way that you are happy to endure the relatively strenuous Ashtanga lessons... And last but not least - there is Neeraj, who is driving all this. He can be described as an idealist who wants to bring yoga to the world. This story will describe him: I wanted to pay the same amount again after the training because I think the 200h TTC is offered way too cheap. But he didnt accept any money, but asked me to donate it to good causes in India. That I did. 3) Every day except Sunday there will be a Hata, Ashtanga and Yin lesson for ~90 minutes each, plus a theory session afterwards. You get insight into three important Yoga styles plus Philosophy, Pranajama, Cleansing Techniques and much more.

I did the online YTT200. The program is well organized and clearly structured. Even with my timezone (Mexico) being completely opposite to most of the live classes all questions were answered within a day.

I just finished 200-hr YTTC with Arohan Yoga in April 2021. I have been wanting to enhance my yoga practice and eventually become a yoga teacher for a long time, and I am glad that I chose this school.All my teachers Vikas, Ravi, Melmar, and Neeraj were very kind and knowledgeable. By the end of the course, I could feel major improvements to my asanas, and I learnt so much about the practice and its related topics (e.g. anatomy, philosophy, breathing techniques).Overall the classes were rich in practice and contents, definitely worth more than their surprisingly economical tuition fee. This is a hidden gem!

I was a member in Arohan Yogas 200hr YTT Jan 2021 batch and would definitely recommend to someone who has been thinking about taking the plunge to become a certified yoga teacher.First, Arohan Yoga offers a lot of flexibility with their online course: all the classes are offered live via zoom every day, but if you live in a conflicting time zone or have a scheduling issue, you are always able to watch the session later as a recording.Second, all the teachers were very caring and genuinely wanted to see our progress throughout the month. I learned so much from them and was able to deepen my yoga practice with a better understanding of the poses, sequencing, anatomy, philosophy, and more.Third, you cant beat the price for the quality they offer! The teachers were extremely open and accessible to questions at all times.Overall, with great teachers, an unbeatable price, professional training, and the opportunity to meet people from around the world, I would definitely recommend Arohan Yoga for someone looking to become a certified yoga teacher.

Ive proudly finished the 200hrs online YTT with Arohan Yoga. I barely had any background on yoga, just wished to do it for myself... This was the reason why I didnt want to spend a fortune in a yoga course... I was then pretty amazed with how good,professional and well organized the course was!Through the process I felt in love with yoga, mainly because of the fact that the teachers knew well how to share their passion and knowledge with us...Many live hours and also very well explained and well organized information (Yoga philosophy, History,Meditation...)Iam now a richer person, so grateful to have had this experience in my life,and looking forward to share it with world!Bless you all!

I am so glad I chose Arohan Yoga to do my 200hr YTT. Their focus is really on spreading the knowledge and passion for the practice of yoga, and the asking price in return is so they can make a living - not make millions. The low price reflects this attitude in my opinion, and most importantly the quality of the course is not compromised in any way. Knowledge is priceless. The teachers - Vikas, Ravi, Melmar, and Neeraj really are masters in their field. Separating the classes by style (hatha, ashtanga, and yin) has allowed me to form an all round understanding of the origin of yoga and how I can use it to advise future students on what is suitable for them. Im not going to be teaching all those styles, but at least now I am informed about each one and how they all compliment each other!

I am absolutely amazed by the quality of their online course. When I began thinking about subscribing to a yoga teaching course 200H online due to the pandemic I did a lot of research and came across Arohan on the internet. They always had good feedback and now I understand why, because everything in this course is very well prepared and understandable, the content is authentic and so well thought and for someone who is at the very beginning of their journey in yoga like myself it was everything I could wish for. I highly recommend the school and the course, it is for everyone. The teachers are incredibly humble and energetic. I had to watch many recorded classes and it was so important to feel the energy and the vibration of every teacher. Neeraj, Ravi, Vikas and Zoei, thank you so much for the patience and support throughout the course and for giving us space to ask for help if we need also after completing the course. I would love to go to Rishikesh, India and join another training with them and hope to do that in the near future. Thank you again. Namaste, Kamila.

I recently completed the 200 hr Yoga Teacher Training with Arohan and had a very positive experience and would highly recommend them as a training school.Students are given access to live classes: Hatha, Ashtanga and Yin plus Anatomy each day (these are also recorded for those who cannot attend live), prerecorded Yoga Philosophy Classes and also Yoga books.The 4 teachers are highly experienced and knowledgable and will help you with any questions.I personally found learning the 3 different styles of yoga all at the same time too much to digest but the course is flexible so you dont have to complete it within the 25 days. So I focused on doing the live Hatha and Anatomy classes and then focused on the other styles of yoga afterwards by following the recorded classes.Thank you Neeraj, Vikas, Ravi and Melmar, I hope to see you in Risikesh one day when life returns to normal. Namaste

I would recommend Arohan to anyone wanting to do their YTT in India. Rishikesh is the Yoga Capital of the World but the city centre is so so loud. Arohan is 11km away, on the river, quiet and BEAUTIFUL. So many places to study. Easy to visit Rishikesh on Sundays off. The Arohan team are all so kind, knowledgeable and supportive. The group I trained with were all amazing people too. It is quite physically intensive so youd get more out of it if you are used to a dynamic practise. Great academic knowledge base too. Thank you so much!!!

The teachers are amazing, open-minded, and very supportive: a big thank to all of you. They showed us that we are more capable than we think and imparted an enormous amount of knowledge and wisdom. They were very patient and always searching for solutions. They considered our straights and weaknesses (mental, cognitive, and physical). At the Arohan Yoga School, Ive learned incredible things and beautiful people. Warm and powerful energy surrounded us daily. It is worth to experience this beauty.There is almost anything I did not like. When something was not my taste or differed to my beliefs and ideas, Ive learned to open my heart, accept, and be happy with it. Or Ive searched for solutions and acted accordingly. The whole Arohan Family (teachers and owners), as well as other students, supported me in going that way. Indeed, there are some things which I, as a Western citizen, did not understand or did not like. However, the thing here is not to like or not like something but rather learn diversity and enjoy it. And everything has a meaning of why things are the way they are. Arohan School enabled me to experience that and am very thankful for this gift which is not on the service list. My conclusion is everything that Arohan promises will be realised. I would always recommend Arohan Yoga School from professional and human aspects. Try it and learn to go beyond your limitations and mindset - overcome your obstacles. This School is a great place to learn to become beautiful and live a beautiful life. Thank you so much.

I was part of Arohan Yoga schools online 200 hour YTT August Batch.I researched and contacted quite a few Yoga Schools that were providing online Teacher training. And I am so pleased I found and chose Arohan!Neeraj, Ravi, Vikas and Zoei teach with immense passion, knowledge, fantastic content of all things Yoga and with a definite care for their students.I learnt so much more about Yoga and myself in the process.The classes are interesting and enjoyable, with so much knowledge and guidance imparted to students. No question was too small and the teachers were always on hand to help with anything.It can be pretty daunting learning anything online, but this was made as easy and as stress free as possible.My journey from near total beginner, not even being able to squat (right Vikas!?! Haha...I tried, I can!); To now being able to not only squat but remain for up to 3 minutes, among others challenges I faced, was pretty incredible.Every day I am surprised by my progress and am grateful to the amazing Arohan teachers for instilling in me and other students that nothing is limited or impossible.I cant recommend Arohan Yoga School enough and am looking forward to further learning with them in the future!A huge thank you to my Beautiful Arohan family; Neeraj, Ravi, Vikas and Zoei...you will all forever hold a very special place in my heart, my practice and my teachings.

I was absolving the 200YTTC online in November 2020. To be fully honest, I could not have wished for a better online Yoga school to complete the 200YTTC. At the beginning, before I booked any Yoga School, I was very doubtful about completing this teacher Training online and not in person. But I gave it a try and it was by far worth the try.The communication with the school itself was very good from the beginning and aswell always in a considerable time. The course was very well structured and timed. The teachers not only took the time during the class to share their knowledge and teached us, they also were (and are still) here to answer questions and offer their help. They were helpful and a big support and motivation throughout the course. The school itself seems really really traditional. Its just so modest and pure what they do. I really felt well guided through the program, no matter what was my or the others starting point. Of course it would have been even better to complete this course in Rishikesh itself (what I originally wanted to do). Due to the situation tho, this was unfortunately not possible. I saw it as a chance to discover more about yoga and I feel my process through and with this school is great. Im very thankful and grateful for this amazing experience and I would warmly and from my deepest heart recommend it to everyone who is willing to complete this training online. Id do it again and again and Im sure as soon as the circumstances will allow it, Im going to this school in India.In addition its also a amazing opportunity to meet new people which have same interest and to share this with them. This is possible- even online.Warm regards and the best for you guys.Corina, 27 Switzerland

All the instructors are extremely prepared and professional. Always willing to share and help to understand the huge amount of knowledge of their ancient culture. They are always positive and smiley, which helps a lot since the intensity of the course. The books and didactic materials we were provided are understandable and very very interesting and well written. We didn’t have any issues with the internet connection or using zoom. Everything very clear. Of course it’s a bummer not being able to do this in person, but they tried to make the most of it anyway and they succeeded! Personal feedback of every students have being given very objectively and with a positive attitude. I was impressed by the modesty and incredible knowledge of Neeraj, the accuracy and vigour of Ravi, and Vikas being always smiley and very encouraging. Thanks Zoei (lovely Yin Yoga instructor) for underlining the strength of each one of us. I would do it again 100 times. Super recommended❤️

I attended an online 200 hours hour teacher training program at Arohan Yoga and it was truly a great learning experience for me here. Course structure was very well organized, all details were shared, teachers followed the outline so it was very easy to follow. I could always go back and read more about the practice. All the teachers here are very dedicated, supportive and responsive. I felt positive, inspired and encouraged every time I interacted with the teachers in those live sessions. Even though it was an online course and I was in the US time zone (EST) , the communication was seamless and I felt I was able to network very well with my fellow students and teachers. I joined this course thinking that I will learn about different yoga styles which will help me to augment my ability to do yoga postures, but I came out of this course with much more than that. I learned the art of living a happy and healthy life and feel very confident that I can teach yoga. I am grateful to all the teachers-Neeraj, Ravi, Zoei and Vikas. A big thank you!! Keep up with the great work Arohan yoga!!

Arohan Yoga is one of the gem I discovered while researching for yoga school to do 200 hr online yoga teacher training. However, those 25 days of training has completely changed my life physically and mentally that yoga has become immense part of my life. All the teachers Zoei, Vikas Sir, Ravi Sir and Neeraj Sir not only share us bookish experience but also real life examples which is very much essential to grow into wonderful human being. I m always grateful to all the teachers who has taught so many things during yoga practice and helped us groom so well. I would certainly visit Rishikesh to take up further 300 hr or 500 hr course in upcoming years when the situation is all good. Thanks again for all the support and encouragement during teacher training.

This is perfect for you whether you want a deeper practice of yoga or you want to pursue your teaching career. They offer the most traditional and authentic training course. Their roster of teachers are superb --- Neeraj, Viktas, Ravi and Zoei have a gift of molding good teachers. Their passion and dedication are unparalleled, and the guidance continues even after training. Their price is such a bargain for the quality of the training course. 🙏

Great place to start your yoga teacher journey. Beautiful surroundings and really good attentive teachers. I came here with my partner, not having really done much yoga prior, now after completing the 200 hour program we both feel yoga will be a major part of our lives. Found learning about the philosophy and anatomy behind yoga really interesting too.I cant fault the place apart from the lack of samosas :) !Keep up the good work guys.Namaste.Devon.

Ive had such a pleasant experience with arohan yoga. The family behind the school and all the staff are absolutely lovely people. The teachers are very talented and supportive in their own way. Furthermore the area surrounding the school is incredibly beautiful, situated just by the Ganga with forests and mountains in the background. The noisiest things around are birdsong. I enjoyed every bit of my stay and could I do it over, I would still have chosen this school.Thank you so much for everything!

There are many schools in Rishikesh, it’s hard to choose. You pay less than average at Arohan and you start to doubt. Well, don’t anymore. It’s a very good school and if you open your mind and heart you will have an unforgettable experience. I read reviews from many schools and people were complaining about too many people, poor organisation, people getting sick. Nothing like that at Arohan! We were very lucky group of 9 and I’m very greatful for every beautiful soul I met there. First, the location is perfect. Tucked away from hustle and bustle of the city. You will appreciate it at some point. 100 meters from Ganga beach were you can find the serenity in nature. Or you can get on the rooftop for magic sunrises. Second, passionate teachers who always give 100%. Very supportive, ready to answer every question. Sneeha, is always there to accommodate your every need. Neeraj is well organised, willing to listen to your feedback and improve. Variety of classes will give you an opportunity to choose the style that suits you. I loved Ashtanga with Ravi. Lastly, food was delicious. Big portions. Maybe even too big :) Once again, thank you everyone who is part of Arohan and made my experience very special. Keep growing Namaste

The teacher training was really amazing, from the location going to the program passing through the teachers and including the team I found there. Was everything so cozy, realized and learned that there is a whole science behind yoga in and out the mat. Grateful for everything I learned,grateful for the people I met. I took not only new knowledge but also a whole new family,learned that people can actually be good even when they don’t know each other. Teachers that had no trouble sharing their time and knowledge unfortunately we didn’t have more time.Attention in solving our problems And the location....sooo beautiful never will forget that view. Enjoyed everyday Vikas very kind and warm soul, always supportive Saajan one of my favorite teachers couldnt get enough of his classes Neeraj very professional, eager to share his knowledge Ravi makes you find strengths (and flexibility) you didn’t know you could. Sneha so supportive and open always here and there to make our stay as comfortable as it could.

I really loved the School! I enjoyed everything: the location (amazing quiet place far from the noise of the city), the kindness of all the people working there and the professionality of the trachers. I fell in love with Ashtanga. Ravi, the teacher, is amazing and he is really able to teach A LOT in less than one month! All the subjects are well-studied and the program is interesting but still easy to undestand from people with no background knowledge. I loved philosophy sooo much! Saajan is a very great teacher, he is always smiling and gives you the most out of his classes. Vikas, tha Hatha teacher, is super nice, he is very experienced and fond of his job, you can see how much he loves it! Neeraj is the owner and he is also teaching anatomy, Iyengar Yoga and Aerial Yoga. He is a man full of knowledge, always willing to learn something new and to share it with his students. I really enjoyed all of his classes, also anatomy, which is really difficult for me, became easy to understand and study! Also a BIG thank you to Sneha, Neerajs wife, and to the other nice women and men working at Arohan: everybody is super nice, professional, kind and always smiling! I feel I really got the most out of this School and I am really happy with this choice!

What an amazing experience i had here in Arohan Yoga. Neeraj, Sneha and all there team were ready to do anything so we fill at home. They are so concern about our comfort. The qualities of the teacher’s is high. For sure you’ll increase your Assanas in your formation. Food is good and if you have any allergies intolerance or have specific diet (vegan, no lactose, etc.) and you advise them, they will do anything they can to provide you what you need. There is two excursions included. They are worth it and really well organized. The place is in nature, quiet, with a beautiful view on the Ganga river. There is a rooftop where you can sometime have your Hatha class or just do self practice in the sun. A lot of useful equipments are provided (yoga mat, mat towel, water bottle, pen, books, etc.)I really recommend this school and a really nice timeThank you so much

Ive just completed my 200 YTT. The best place to study in Rishikesh!! Amazing location, great teachers. I felt very well looked after, whenever I needed something or I had a doubt (outside my course) they were always there to help me. Course itself is very well planned. If you are looking for a place to study your 200 YTT in India, dont look any further, you have just found the best one!

This is a challenging yet fun YTT set right along the Ganges River. The YTT is family-owned, providing a cozy, easy-going atmosphere. The location is outside the tourist area, and therefore, considerably tranquil with access to nature and sweeping views of the Himalayas and Ganges. Prospective students should be prepared to do a lot of yoga and spend a significant amount of time learning about yoga beyond the asana practice - including theory, cleansing techniques, breath control, meditation techniques, and aerial postures. Highly recommend.

In the beginning I was a little swamped by India, new culture, new habits, new rules. But the family-atmosphere at arohan yoga, with Neeraj, his lovely wife Sneha and two adorable kids, made it easier for me to understand the indian way of life a bit more. They will always listen, if you have any question and they will always find a way to help you. The different theoretical and practical courses were held by 4 teachers, each one of a kind: Ravi- the hardcore Ashtanga teacher- is responsible for a few grams of extra musclemass and flexibility of my body. He will make you hold the warrior-pose for a few minutes and even more advanced postures- you will hate it- but you will love it, too. Vikas- the creative Hatha teacher- has always a few plans in mind and will create the yogaclass in a way that fits best for you that very day. But dont think he will let you relaaax the whole time, with his assistance you will gain a whole new level of flexibility. Sajaan- the beloved one- this is the meaning of Sajaan and describes him perfectly. With his kind and open smile he will explain the whole philosophy behind yoga and will add his favorite mediation techniques. Neeraj- the multitalent- will teach you not only in Iyengar, aerial yoga and anatomy but also in life. By opening up about how and why he made certain decisions and how he developed personally his courses are far away from dry (how he likes to describe himself) but became one of my favorites during the whole month. Additionally to the 4 teachers, Sneha was always around and helping with every day problems. She also organized weekend trips and we even did two cooking classes with her and found out that she is the best chef in town! The ayurvedic meals you will get 3 times a day- with extra fresh fruits every day- are really good but again- nothing is better than Snehas meals. There is a wonderful balance between all those 5 characters so that everyone will be able to learn, to improve, to feel at home and understood in this environment. So all in all there is not much left to say except that I really enjoyed every single day of my time at arohan-yoga. Thank you so much for letting me stay even 2 days longer! I learned so much, got so much input and so many new friends that I feel like there is nothing to stop me on my starting yogic-journey.

I absolutely loved my time at Arohan and can highly recommend this yoga teacher training! The accommodation was really nice right at the ganga with a beautiful rooftop view, big common area and clean spatious rooms. Even the wifi worked pretty well after some initial problems :) In general Neeraj and Sneha always had an open ear for any questions and problems and always did their best to solve them as fast as possible. The food was really nice most of the time, a little repeptitive, but totally ok for 25 days. And the yoga was the best part of course! I think the education you get here is really good, very profound and professional, and all the teachers were amazing in their own way. Ravi makes you sweat a lot and go to your limits and always gets everyones names wrong but finds his own name for you instead ;) Neeraj with all his dryness is also a super nice and helpful guy and extremely knowledgeable, he also gave us a lot of extra informations and insights into Indian culture which was really cool and of course Im super grateful that he let me stay for 2 more nights after the course! Saajan is such a sweet kind person who you just cant not love, and Vikas is just amazing, he is the most experienced yogi and very dedicated, he even came earlier sometimes to have more time with us and also after the course. And Sneha who organised excursions, massages, cooking classes and doctor visits is super lovely too :) Thank you all for this amazing time, I will miss you!!

An awesome yoga teacher training place.The managements are very proactive in solving problems. They will do their best to accommodate our needs.Neeraj has structure in his teaching. He will explain all the materials in details and patiently explain all over again until we fully understand. Start from iyengar, anatomy, culture and business... apart from that, i remembered when few of the student ft sick he took us to the hospital, took care of us and made sure everything went well.Sneeha.... she is a loving caring and amazing mother of the school. She will make sure each and everyone gets what they need. And when we were sick, she made sure we got our ayurvedic tea. She is a lovely lady.Ravi... he has structure in his teaching and know how to push your limit without hurting u. He is also a funny guy who always twist each and everyone name.Vikas ... he will gladly teach u everything you wanna know!!! He will go to the very basic to strengthen u and also from philosophical side. He is so humble and full of compassion.Its a value for money yoga training school.Well, i told myself to practice more. whenever im ready for my 300 hours, i definitely will go back to this school.

I attended the TTC at Arohan in Januray 2019 and enjoyed my experience there very much. The teachers there were top notch, I especially loved the astanga classes. The school manager is attentive and accomodating, and is continuously working to improve the programme as the school is relatively new and is in its second year of operation. The school is right on the beach of the Ganga which provided the perfect backdrop for the rooftop classes. The location also cultivated a quiet and somewhat peaceful environment for study, concentration and contemplation as it is away from the main part of town. I highly recommend Arohan for 200hrs TTC especially for the price, it far exceeded my expectations.

Highly recommended, Neeraj, Sneah and the rest of the teachers have been wonderful, very pleasant and willing at all times to help and teach. It is a very familiar school and therefore great. The best classes for my Philosophy, asthanga and hatha, very complete, super dynamic. Although you may need a couple of days to adapt to the rhythm, you will end up enjoying and learning a lot. They also give you a lot of additional material to complete what they teach in school. You also practice various meditations and techniques of pranayama. The location is far from the tourist center of the city, which is great to focus on if it is what you are looking for. In tuk tuk you arrive in about 40 minutes or something else to Tapovan. The 100 hour training has been perfect for a first approach to yoga from a more technical point of view, in order to continue training. As a personal experience it has been beautiful and intense. We also did an excursion to see sunrise and the massage was one of the best I have received so far in India.The food despite being super good, is still thali and getting a little tired, but on Sundays you can shop for the week to give a different touch to meals and breakfasts. In the winter months it is very cold, shelter well is very important. And any problem or doubt ask and share will help you everything you need, they are wonderful.Highly recommended
