"This intensive Hatha Yoga teacher training course is brilliant! It offered me challenges, personal and spiritual growth and forced me to confront my fears by absolutely completely taking them out of my comfort zone. I would recommend this Yoga instructor certification program to everyone serious about deepening their understanding of yoga."
Jasmine
USA
"It’s amazing how much I have learned in one month of Hatha Yoga teacher training. All the teachers here are very supportive. Each day I felt motivated to try something new and was pushed beyond limits I never knew I had. I feel confident leaving Arhanta and ready to teach. Overall it was a challenging and rewarding experience."

I like the way of living at the ashram, living with a lot of different people, eating, studying and... sharing experiences with each other. The quality of the classes were amazing, 3 different and such good teachers. The Jokes of Omkar, the interesting and deep questions about life from Ram and the pranayama and singing of Kalyani made my time here unforgettable. I would like to thank you for all the amazing yoga classes everyday went so quick. I liked each class. I think that everything was very professional and I liked that you are also sharing deep stories about your personal life.read more

I feel very grateful to have been participating on this course, because it gave me much more... insight in the yoga practise and the yoga philosophy. I came here in search for myself, to know who I am, so that I would know my real purpose in my life. I felt like I was in the right place to look for my answers. When I entered the ashram, it felt so good to me. In the beginning I felt like stranger in the group but soon we all were like a big team, also because of the way the course and everything was set up: the teachings, the walks, the satsang and even the karma jobs were done as teamwork. We had fun together, mostly during the ‘How To Teach’ classes. Now, almost 4 weeks later, I feel a little exhausted but so satisfied with all that I learned. I am very grateful to all the teachers and the whole team, also to the students, they were all verry helpful, kind and motivating. I wish each and everyone the very best.read more

I am impressed by the clear structure of the course. Every single lesson is perfectly linked to the... next one, all together forming a chain to make students learn, understand, use the knowledge gained and grow. All within 4 weeks! The teachers are very professional and skilled, making complex theory very clear to understand, even for non-English speakers. By studying the philosophy and anatomy behind the yoga practices, you will have enough knowledge as a teacher to explain why certain things are practiced within the lessonread more

Ho seguito il corso di Prenatal con Lucia Ilaria Seglie e lo consiglio vivamente. E’ completo,... pieno di chiarimenti e indicazioni. Ciò che ho amato di più è la sua filosofia di insegnamento, che apprezzo profondamente nei principi e le intenzioni. E nell’importanza di accompagnare una donna verso il suo passo più speciale e impegnativo. In generale, credo che mi abbia aiutato ad aggiungere un nuovo tassello alla mia conoscenza della pratica tradizionale, che è diventata ancor più consapevole.read more

The care and attention given by the teachers is very motivating and creates a fun and super focused atmosphere.Everything is so well organised, the program is excellent, and the teachers are brilliant, each with their own unique perspective and experience. Together Ram, Kalyani and Omkar have a wealth of knowledge which comes through in the classes and evening programs.I highly recommend the course for anyone who us serious about studying Hatha Yoga and who wants to share it with others.The course teaches you how to develop your style of teaching based on a sequencing system developed by the teachers.read more

Loved this teacher training. The teaching methods were good and I felt very well trained. The... course was funny, intense, practical and also hard work. I made many new friends during the course and learned so much more about myself. It has been a great start of my journey as a yoga teacher and I am proud to say I have been teaching for 5 years already, always adding new knowledge but still building on the foundation you gave me. Thank you so much for instilling in me the confidence and know how to share the practise of yoga.read more

Choosing the right yoga course is a big decision and investment. I can honestly say that my... experience at the Arhanta Ashram for the 200 hours Hatha Yoga Course (the Netherlands) was one of my best decisions. The instructors are top notch. They all have their unique strengths and compliment each other perfectly. You are pushed and encouraged from the beginning to end, the syllabus is very intense but it will be worth it in the end. I’ve met some amazing people and it is been an eye opening journey.Thank you Omkar for your constant encouragement and faith in us, you pushed us beyond what I thought was possible. Your expertise are invaluable… OOO-KAAYYY! (when you hear that you know its time to focus)Thank you Kalyani and Ram for sharing your knowledge and experience with us and allowing us into your beautiful home and Ashram. I feel extremely grateful and blessed to have you all as teachers. I have so much love for you all.read more

I liked the structure of the... course, the sequencing of the days, the contents of lessons and the “human relationships” with the whole team. I felt lots of challenges, which were emphasized throught Asana’s practice, morning's meditation and living in an ashram part of a group during 4 weeks!

I had really great experienced at Arhanta. It is amazing how teachers transfer the knowledge in... such a quick and structured way. Just from one day to another you find yourself knowing how to give a real yoga lesson. I would like to thank all the teachers for taking good care of each and every student for the personal touch, Kalyani for her nice feminine energy, Ram for every time making me dive into the depth of myself and special thanks to Omkar for challenging me every time in the right moment and just “pushing” the knowledge in my head.Ram said that he doesn’t believe in magic, but what you are doing here at Arhanta IS THE MAGIC!

It’s amazing how much effort Ram, Kalyani and Omkar give to make each and every lesson count and make us feel like we are really welcome.

The course is well structured providing students with good opportunity to study yoga teaching... didactics and methodology. Besides it offers a valuable opportunity to acquire some basic knowledge about the fundaments of the Yogic philosophy. The meditation classes are an important possibility to have a glimpse of this integral part of the yogic practice. And last but not least, interaction and team work with other students create the environment where a dedicated daily practice of new knowledge is possible. The teachers are all highly experienced and motivated professionals capable in providing students with the personal attention they require. The course is also a lot of fun, and smiles, laughter and team spirit make it a great experience. Many thanks, I truly enjoyed it!read more

I found myself being able to accept everything that cross my way, to love and comprehend my every obstacle knowing it’s the best for me at that particular moment.The whole idea and intention of the course is highly professional and very good structured. What I’m most grateful about are my teachers. The different approaches, dynamic and personalities are what makes the course so unique and alive and worth of giving yourself the chance to be yourself and to give the best you can.

Deciding to go Arhanta was a very big step for me for my own personal growth. This course exceeded... my expectations by a mile! I came to Ashram very open minded and ready for whatever this course had to offer. The past 4 weeks have truly been life changing and I would definitely do it again, if I had the chance. I was surprised by how intense and heavy the program was and I had some mental barriers that I had to overcome along the way but it only made me so much stronger. I enjoyed the structure of the course and it was all extremely well organized. The peaceful surroundings really made this whole experience even more magical. Everyone who attended the course was extremely friendly and I felt a very strong connection with a lot of people towards the end, due to sharing a lot of emotions together. People stuck together along the way, making each other stay strong throughout the course. I enjoyed all of the classes. I found the teachers very professional, each having their own unique personality. It wouldn’t be the same if one of them were missing. Especially philosophy classes gave me a whole new perspective on a lot of things in life. You grow very fast during your own asana practice and become more confident, not only in your own practice but in your teaching. I feel like I have a good foundation and ready to start teaching my own classes. A big thank you to Arhanta for this special experience!read more

The 200H Yoga Teacher course in Netherlands was the best choice I could imagine to become a Hatha... Yoga Teacher. Very interesting classes, practical and theoretical but most practical that’s what I really appreciated. We actually practiced a lot! And always with some things to improve on. Teachers are demanding because they want us to be the best as we can. It’s a really good experience and in one month I know I can teach classes and I will.

The Arhanta Yoga TTC is the best way to become a professional yoga teacher. This intensive program... will bring you much more than only teaching yoga. Living the ashram life, being close to your class mates and adapting to a set schedule will challenge you to move inwards and face your own patterns and habits. The Arhanta teachers are extremely dedicated and professional, they practice what they teach and share from their hearts. Each step of the course is delicately planned and supports throughout the process of the inner journey and transforming yourself into a confident yoga teacher.

Initially I didn’t know what to expect when I register for this month of training. Very quickly the... intensity of both, theatrical and practical learning, pore my life. Physical fatigue, rhythm and learning a lot, dense schedule and community life are sometimes tough but ultimately growing. This training was a challenge for me, a physical experience of adaptation and observation of the benefits of ashram life. I’m diabetic and the effects of this month on my blood sugar was incredible. So I think than more than a 200H Yoga Teacher Training, it’s a healthy way of life. Thanksread more

The course is very intense and gives so much knowledge in a short amount of time. It is also very... well structured and you will really experience the progress you are making. In the beginning it seems for away to be able to teach a 90 minute yoga class – but after just a few weeks you can definitely do it. My favorite class besides learning to teach was the philosophy class. It really built the foundation to understand why we are doing yoga and it gives you quite some thinking about your own life. The teachers are also really nice and funny and have great knowledge. Another good experience was definitely the stay at the ashram. It’s a peaceful and calm place. After these weeks it already feels like home to me. I am thinking about coming back for another course one day. Thank you for everything that this stay gave to me!read more

One of the most beautiful journeys of my live, 4 weeks in a world of much more silence, and... stilness in myself. Hard work, beautiful people from all over the world who'm I was able to get to know a little better.
Joy, laughter, tears, moments of peace and moments of struggeling. I learned a lot, not only to teach and do a good job, but also know how to correct, why a pose is good for your body and a lot about the philosophy of yoga. And beside that I also learned a lot about myself.
I feel ready to teach, and I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to be in the Ashram and to share it with my group. The staf and our teachers are really inspiring people, they learn you how to believe in yourself. I will never forget it.

I can really recommend the Arhanta yoga training program. By very good ‘how to teach’ yoga classes... you learn everything in theory and practice about teaching yoga.

First of all I would like to say “thank you! (-:”, to Ram, Omkar, Karen and
Marijke. And to the... staff in the kitchen, the guards and gardeners.
I am very happy that my intuition brought me here. On the one hand I really learned a lot and I grew much more than I expected, on the other hand I could
also heal a lot on all levels of ‘me’. This TTC is perfect for you when
you come with a clear goal and focus to be ready to teach a class with
confidence, accepting and adapting to the demanding schedule of the
days, which made this experience even more authentic. Also if you want to
understand or heal yourself on deeper levels, set your clear intentions
and you will have the possibility here because you will get to your
limits and get confronted with inner conflicts or issues going on.
That’s why I would also clearly state, that this course requires good
physical, mental and emotional health and stability. I do not recommend
it to people having a lot of troubles or problems going on, whether it's mentally or physically, as it can be too overwhelming and exhausting.
Ram played the role of a strict teacher very well.
Omkar was teaching with patience and humour, always very professional.
Marijke and Karen were always giving their best to support and available
to us in times we were having trouble physically or mentally.
I was completely fine with the food provided, even though sometimes I
was missing some nuts or seeds, as it was always vegan food and maybe my
body was asking for more protein. Or it was just my mind which may be
slightly attached to nuts ;)
I appreciate it very much that we can still keep contact with Omkar and
Ram to ask them, whenever we have any questions or doubts. And I
gratefully can say that I met wonderful souls here and could learn from
each of them. To learn as a group was also something that got really
encouraged, and that strengthened the group and each individual during the last weeks. Thank you.
Namaste.read more

body was asking for more protein. Or it was just my mind which may be
slightly attached to nuts ;)
I appreciate it very much that we can still keep contact with Omkar and
Ram to ask them, whenever we have any questions or doubts. And I
gratefully can say that I met wonderful souls here and could learn from
each of them. To learn as a group was also something that got really
encouraged, and that strengthened the group and each individual during the last weeks. Thank you.
Namaste.read more

At first as a beginner I was a bit nervous to start this course, but even though it is really... intense for mind and body, the teachers support you in such a motivating way that you pull through. The second day of the course I injured my knee and also for that they were really supportive. As for the teaching part I wasn’t sure if that was my end goal, but I got so much knowledge and confidence that I probably want to proceed as a yoga teacher. Thank you Arhanta team!read more

The more time passes, the more I appreciate that i did the teacher training course. It serves as a... great foundation for your own practice and feel like a lot of the things we learned really stuck with me because of the intensity of the course and the competency of the teachers.
The location is also very interesting. You're really far out into the country, surrounded by rural India, but also only half an hour away from an airport and a very urban Khajuraho.
Anyone commited to this kind of experience will gain a lot by doing the course.read more

Yes yes yes! Go Go Go!🥳 I started this course, looking for adventure, a new experience and... insights that supplement my life back home. I just wanted to step out of the everyday life and learn more about yoga. But then.. I found more than I could wish for. The teacher training gave me so much new knowledge and actually made me want to become a yoga teacher (I didn't expect thissss) because of the beautiful philosophy behind it and the step by step approach they used to make us comfortable with teaching. The ashram life was an experience I will never forget. If you want to expierence yoga in its purest form, choose for Arhanta!😍read more

Thank you all!!! I had the best month with Arhanta in India. I love the system in which they teach.... I really enjoy the good stories of yoga philosophy with Ram. The food helped me to keep my energy up and to lose weight. Teacher Omkar helped me to improve my practice and way of teaching. But most important, he helped me to not lose my spirit. It was just one asana class with him and everything would come back to be 100% perfect.read more

I really appreciate this course and I am glad I came. I had some doubts because of my age, but this... course restored my self confidence. It made me realise I am physically capable of things which I thought were not for me. It helped me to bring back my learning skills and reminded me of the priorities I had forgotten (yam, niyam). This course is intense with a huge amount of information, and days are busy, but everything is useful and cohesive, giving a very good insight of what yoga practice should look like. The teachers are very professional, helpful and cheerful, which really contributes to the nice atmosphere, whilst building a nice team spirit between the students. I am really grateful for what this course brought me alreadyread more

How to describe the past four weeks > one of the things I have learned here again is to listen to... and speak from your heart, so here it goes. Actually when I look back, it is indescribable. Making this journey by myself, but with the great support of the other people. I've learned so much about yoga, asan and pranayam and gained a lot of information about the philosophy of yoga itself. Besides that, also got disciplined by waking up at 5:30 with the sunrise and go to bed when the moon and stars were up in the sky. I learned how to observe more, did things I wouldn’t have dared to do before (like walking around someone and guiding them through poses). Acceptance was also part of the process, such as trust, consiousness and a calmer mindset. The location of the ashram contributes to the calmness in a pleasant way. The teachers were so full of information about different subjects, full of stories, own experiences and jokes. The food was incredibly good and eating in silence is quite a good thing to do. As I said before, it was kind of indescribable, and the things up here are only just a little part of the total experience <3read more

Very interesting classes and professional teachers. Impressive how much we have learned in just one... month. Stories that will never be forgotten... somewhere under the mango tree... So grateful and feeling blessed. Never thought I would be feeling ready and proud to teach so fast. Omkar brought great humour, pushed us to our limits and was very emphatic, except when it came to push ups, haha, you are finally forgiven Omkar.
Ram is a natural born story teller. For me, the nicest course of all, because I didn’t expect it. It made me think a lot about myself, my life and my ego. I will carry all this with me for the rest of my life and share it with my children, friends and family.
THANK YOU A LOT. Even though this was not always an easy journey, I think I understand the aim of yoga now.read more

The TTC really fulfilled all my expectations. The location, the food, the content and the schedule... appeared to be as I thought a serious TTC should look like. Nothing to complain about, although sometimes challenging.
I want to emphasize especially the high quality of both content and methods provided. Being a sport scientist and a certified personal trainer, I attended many seminars and workshops in Europe. Yet, the high standards and quality of teaching and organization by team Arhanta surprised me positively. To me it was a great experience! Apart from that, Ram and Omkar are two extremely nice guys that not only teach their subjects very well, but also appeared to be always open and approachable to any kind of personal issue. They are definitely in the right job!
In brief: If you come to Arhanta, you will learn yoga asanas, how to teach them, you will study yogic philosophy and anatomy, and , maybe most important: you will get to know a bit better who you really are - surrounded and supported by brilliant people!read more

"The Yoga Teacher Training Course from Arhanta is pretty intense, but totally worth it. I came here... to deepen my own practice and work on myself, but it became so much more than that. Now I am really considering to become a yoga teacher. It is genuinely true that you can become a yoga teacher in four weeks only, because of the high level trained teachers. I really liked the teachings of Ram and Omkar, they know what they are doing and they do it with so much passion and dedication. They enjoy teaching us and are strict, but really kind. It was a journey with ups and downs for me, but I have more confidence now. Besides everything it was so precious to meet all this mind-like people with all their own stories and motivation. I would totally recommend doing this training with Arhanta."read more

Arhanta Yoga is a really professional organisation. The surrounding of the ashram in India was... mindblowing.
The ashram has a calming effect on your mind because there is no distraction or noise.
The food was perfect and healthy prepared, nutritious and tasty.
The local staff were doing a great job. They took care of us (felt very safe), kept the ashram clean, and were always friendly.
The teachers and assistants were really helpful and professional. The Arhanta learning/teaching system works really well.
First time of teaching a small group during the teacher training was hard because I felt really insecure. Just a few weeks later I was able to teach a class with a smile on my face. They brought us out of our comfort zone.
Thank you Arhanta. This course was life changing.read more

The training in India was beyond my expectations. The ashram is situated in the nature, outside of... all the noises of the city.
We lived there together with the teachers, we could be a part of their Divali celebration and experienced the "easy" life without distractions.
The training was of the finest quality. It almost surprised me how much knowledge one can absorb in only one month in the theory classes taught by Ram. I enjoyed all the stories and objectivity that made me listen to every single word.
What I enjoyed the most were the asana classes as I could focus on myself and grow in my own practice. I was pushed physically, emotionally and spiritually. After a challenging month of "How to teach" classes I can truly say that I am ready to go home and start teaching yoga classes. That with all my thanks to Omkar and the volunteers.
The teachers made this time unforgettable, along with the beautiful sunrises, singing birds and amazing students from all over the world. Thank you! 🙏read more

The teachers here are 100% there for you. The setup of the course is incredible. You can see and... feel yourself progressively improve. It is so much more than ‘just’ a yoga TT course. Things you get the opportunity to face and learn from go way beyond any other course I have ever done. The assistants help where they can and both Ram & Omkar are fully tuned into the group giving it all they need.
I would recommend it to anyone who is ready to dive into yoga or is ready to look at him- or herself.
Thank you for all lessons given, I am still benefitting from it from moment to moment.read more

I also went on a beautiful journey towards myself, feeling more comfortable, peaceful about the path I am walking. The teachers are all passionate and never lacking in humour. The course, structure, though strict and tough at times, made this month the best you can expect form a 200hrs training course. I will cherish this beautiful time and all the people that made it possible, always.

I have felt so comfortable and can only recommend this course with teachers who contain so much proximity and professionalism and sharing their experiences and knowledge with great commitment. Regardless of whether the dream as yoga teacher is present, or as a personal journey, it will be fulfilled. Thank you so much Arhanta Yoga for this experience.read more

Last February I joined Arhanta to do the 200 hour TTC in India. After having finished the course I... was already grateful to have done the TTC with Arhanta, but the more I travel and get into contact with yoga, the more grateful I am I did my TTC with Arhanta. With almost having no experience in yoga (participated in 7 yoga classes last summer), this month I learned very thorough the basics of yoga (the asana’s and the philosophy), that I felt (and feel) confident to teach and am curious to learn more about yoga. The whole course is very professional and the Arhanta team knows how to transfer their knowledge to the needs of their students. Thank you Arhanta and highly recommend you to all people interested in learning more about yoga or wanting to teach yoga!read more

It was a very intensive time, the lessons were well structured and effective without waste of time.... My experience during the yoga teacher training in India pushed me to my limit at times but it helped me get to know myself better.
One of the things I liked most about the “how to teach classes” is the how structure of classes enabled me get outside my comfort zone whilst reducing the fear of teaching other people yoga. I could see my progress after each class.
I am also grateful for the different kinds of meditation and pranayamas which they taught us. My biggest passion goes to yoga philosophy with Yogi Ram (a very good communicator and storyteller) and the chanting which touched my heart deeply. Since then I chant every day and I feel changes within me as my inner balance grows and serenity surrounds me.
Furthermore the food was delicious, the ashram clean, quiet and surrounded by beautiful nature…I love it.
All teachers are professionals, have a passion for teaching and are friendly.

Before coming to the ashram I had little expectations of me becoming a yoga teacher. I wanted to... improve my own knowledge and practice, but I didn’t think I would have the courage to become a teacher. After doing this course many of my insecurities are gone, I am still not sure whether I will teach, but I find it amazing how much I have learned and grown in these four weeks. The course isn’t easy, and will take you out of your comfort zone many times, but in the end it is so worth it.

Free time you have to study and that is good. You are very nice people and you love to teach. The knowledge that you gave me I will carry it the rest of my live. The way of living in the ashram is very good. There is no luxury that can distract you. All the lessons were all professional and I loved it.

The practical classes were very good, we have learnt very well how to teach and especially how to correct in the right way. The area is the perfect location for an ashram, so silent, that is great, also the possibility to practise Yoga outside.
I liked hearing and learning the main parts of the yoga philosophy - Who am I?- and to concentrate 1 month on this.
The food - lunch and dinner - was good.

The Arhanta Yoga TTC has a straightforward and clear approach to training asan teachers. The... program is set up so that you have very few distractions and can experience a taste of the lifestyle that the philosophy describes. Daily asan practice ensures that everyone walks away stronger and more aware of their bodies than they were before, and a variety of meditations, chants and pranayam help each student to turn their focus further inwards. Ram is a very good teacher. It’s clear that he knows what he is talking about and he gives his lectures in a funny and engaging way. The rest of the teachers were also incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and approachable. Toward the end of the course, Ram gives a lecture about how to start a studio or find a yoga job. He draws from his own personal experience and leaves nothing out. This teacher training has make me feel confident about my ability to teach, find a job and implement parts of the yoga philosophy into my own life. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to spend a month among such amazing people. I would recommend Arhanta Yoga to anyone, and I hope to return as a volunteer or to eventually participate in the ATTC!read more

The calm environment, friendly and skilled staff and the balanced meals has made this trip a very special one.read more

I think it is a very complete course, taking into account the little time (one month) for so much... knowledge to be acquired. I liked the teachers a lot, that apart from knowing a lot, made us feel very comfortable, because they are so nice. The food was great, a very simple and perfect diet for so much daily practice. I also liked the accommodation for its authenticity as an ashram; I would like to thank the nice attention from the local workers every day so kind and respectful. It has been a really positive experience.read more

This is a high standard course, it is qualitative and full. Yoga is very “in” these days. One of my... goals was to come to India to understand a bit more of the philosophy behind the asana and this is what the teachers gave me. I am grateful, thank you.read more

Amazing teachers. They are all very knowledgeable with a great passion for sharing and helping... people grow. I was not expecting such a high level of human skills and presence. I was inspired and enjoyed their company a lot. The course is very intense, quite heavy in the middle but worth the pain. The structure is really well thought out, right balance between Yoga theory, asana practice and learning how to teach. A lot of content but progression is made easy. Here is not the time to overthink or debate, just do do do and do again. Learn from previous mistakes, and keep improving. I am exhausted but feeling grateful for what they have shared with me. Not only, I know how to teach a yoga asana class now, but I am also very glad that I got the chance to deepen my understanding of yoga philosophy and lifestyle. Thank you so much for everything!read more

An experience becomes a good experience when you start feeling you are in exactly the right place... at the right time, Arhanta gave me this exact experience. It started as soon as I entered the ashram, which the photos don't do justice, its a beautiful place, everything you want it to be: green, clean and quiet. Then the teachers, they have a professional distance, and are there for you when you need more encouragement and support. Prepare to become like a family with your fellow students (you have an international network right away) for you will share a life changing experience with them. And life changing it is, because whatever your goal is before you come here you will develop you will develop yourself in many ways. That’s why at arhanta you will be in exactly the right place at the right time, I reached my goal; I feel confident enough to teach something I never thought possible in just three weeks! Thank you so much I enjoyed every minute.read more

200 hours in less than four weeks….. It’s double, but it requires full attention and engagement. If... you’re ready for this you will experience an incredible development in a short period of time. The ashram itself is in a beautiful surrounding. The buildings, including the yoga halls and the sleeping rooms are simple but functional. The staff is just great. They are very supportive in a really personal way. However they expect you to respect the rules, behave properly and make progression. I’m quite sure that I will get the full benefit out of this experience only a few weeks after I’m back at my place. And it showed me once again: If you want to succeed and you get the right environment you will achieve your goals.read more

In this short time, arhanta has made it possible to set up a schedule which trains you to be a... confident yoga teacher. Everything you need to reach your goal is there and nothing more that makes it more easy to really concentrate on the course without other distractions. I am really thankful for this course and it has been a great gift to stay here for one month together with an amazing group that feel like a family, and the great teachers, whom have all the attention and patients for you, you can ask anything any time. This was a great adventure, I can see the improvements I have made from the beginning, I was very insecure, untrained and I had no goals, Now after one month I feel that my practice has improved a huge amount and I feel very confident to teach, I totally enjoy it and if feels more and more natural. a big thank you to Arhanta, and the people who have joined me on this adventure which changed my life and helped me gain a new view on life.read more

The course meant a huge growth for me. I got the chance to develop not only the basic skills for... being a yoga teacher but also a lot of skills to improve my own life. With all the teachers I was able to go deeper in every process without getting lost. I grew every time more. I am really grateful for all of you that you have been here for me, caring for me and supporting me. Each one had something special to teach me that now I can leave with a smile again. And this is the greatest gift you helped me to present myself. It means so much to me. Thank you!

Since the moment I arrived at the ashram, I knew that the experience was going to be awesome, and... it was. Omkar is one of the best teachers I have ever had, really professional, and from the first class I could tell he has a lot of knowledge. The environment at the ashram is lovely, and from Yogi Ram, to the Gardener the staff make you feel at home. I definitely recommend the 200 hour TTC, thank you for making me feel at home.read more

I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to be a student at the Arhanta Yoga Ashram in India. I... have had the immense pleasure of learning from good-natured teachers who truly embody the yoga philosophy and who offer quality lectures and classes. I couldn't have asked for a better learning experience and I feel confident that my peers and I are equipped with all necessary tools to succeed as yoga teachers. I have thoroughly enjoyed sharing this experience with like-minded individuals working towards a common goal. I warmly recommend this school and wish the teachers, assistants and fellow students all the best for their future endeavours.

The ashram is so beautiful, nice and quiet, a perfect place for a yoga course. The course is very... strict and professional. The ‘How to teach’ and asana classes from Omkar were clear, funny and he knows his students very well. I found the philosophy classes from Ram more than interesting, He tells stories in clear and humorous ways, which you will understand and remember. It is a full schedule and you are constantly busy, time really flies because you are focused on one thing. . . Yoga, you don't have time to think about anything else. I really enjoyed the walks because it gave me a variation during the week. The food and accommodation are all you need as long as your expectations aren't too high. The days off are to recharge a bit, see a bit of India and to study. The only negative point is that the ashram isn't built for tall people like me, I have to sleep in fetal position and I have banged my head a few times. But I enjoyed every moment of the experience, and I will remember this for a lifetime. Thanks to Ram, Omkar and Kalyaniread more

Firstly the teaching is great. High quality, clear, well-paced, and enjoyable. The course is... structured very well and allows for all different learning styles and pace. Omkar has a good balance of professionalism, humour and also patience!
Although the ashram experience was very hard for me in the beginning, I understand that its due to my own perspective and has nothing to do with what is offered here. We are not used to living with such structure in our lives, so it takes some of us time to adjust. But it has given me what I came for personally, and I also can't wait to teach when I get home.read more

I could say this has been the most intense month of my life. So much to learn every day, so many... different classes and practices, and so much yoga! The teachers have been awesome; they have an answer to every question and they give us all the knowledge we need to become teachers, and much much more. After the first week I thought that I wasn't going to be able to finish it, but I got continual motivation from the teachers and my classmates and it turned out great! Now I trust myself and I know I will be a good yoga teacher. Thank you everyone, especially Lovely, Sweet and patient Omkar, your smile kept us going! :)read more

Er wordt bij de Arhanta Yoga Ashram NL in Sinderen door professionele en zeer kundige docenten... gewerkt aan het opbouwen van zelfvertrouwen om les te geven, vanuit een positieve insteek. Dus vriendelijke feedback in plaats van kritiek. Eerlijkheid over wat er van ons wordt verwacht qua houding, manier van les geven, veiligheid van onze studenten en het eindresultaat. Ook brachten de docenten focus bij ons aan om yogadocent te kunnen worden en hadden we (en dat is ook belangrijk) regelmatig lol in de lessen. En na vier weken was het voor iedereen helder; 'ik kan een goede yogales geven en ben yogadocent'. Ik heb in de Arhanta Yoga Ashram NL in 4 weken geleerd om op een goede en veilige manier een fijne yogales te geven. Dat is voor mij de belangrijkste reden 5 sterren te geven. Kortom, een hoge kwaliteit yogaschool.read more

Firstly, thank you Ram and your wonderful team during my stay here. Each and every one of you have... shown great attention to the entire class. The first week was tough for me because this is my first time being apart from my children, aged 9 and 8. I didn’t know what to do with myself for the first few days! I felt a strong sense of emptiness without my family, who am I. Slowly as the weeks progress, I gradually found some peace and harmony within myself. I enjoy each and every asana classes, sometimes I even wish asana class can last longer. Philosophy is a bit heavy for me because I’m pretty simple minded, but I’ve learn a lot from it, especially Raj yoga, which I would to like to practise and develop in my life. ‘How to teach’ class has everyone’s nerves breaking but I’ve become more at ease teaching compare to the past weeks. Thanks you!read more

I had a very nice time here. It is very intense, but in a good way. You learn so much, all the... time. Sometimes it can feel like a little too much in the same time, but maybe that’s because I’m not used to it. All in all, I had a very good journey here. I especially like the focus there is on your own personal practise. And I love the area here! It was so good for me, that you’re so for from everything and you’re home, amazing, greens everywhere. So inspired! The teachers are very professional, you can easily feel that they know what they are talking about. Also the volunteers – so lovely girls.read more

When I came I told my parents that a 4 week course can only be the beginning to learn how to be a... teacher. I’m not coming home ready to teach, it will take time but one has to take the first step. Yesterday I called my parents and told them that I’m making plans to start teaching a.s.a.p. I took this course for authenticy but I got so much more and for that I’m really grateful. It felt like school and not a retreat and that was important to me. I feel I can really go home and call myself a yoga teacher. I’m excited to see where else I will land with yoga. Maybe even back on your doorstep.read more

The course is very intensive but it is very well scheduled and balanced. ‘How to teach’ with Omkar... was my favourite class, he is an excellent teacher, you can feel his knowledge is huge and he is always happy to help and answer questions. Ram’s lectures on philosophy are extremely interesting and his stories are mesmerizing. Asana class with Jyoti or Kalyani are both great, though I liked Jyoti better, maybe because we had her more often. The atmosphere at the ashram was a home feeling, really nice. Overall it’s a top course, and all the 4 teachers are excellent and amazing. :)read more

It was really a diverse course, that was very pleasant for me. Because of that you don't get too... much information about only one subject, but you get allround knowledge. The teachers were very professional and they listened to what the students want and need. They immediately adjust the things that where asked for, so they really helped a lot. The environment they created felt so safe an learning, because of that I was not afraid to asked ‘stupid’ questions and to fail during the moments we could practise things. For me all about Yoga was new, but I didn't felt like a newbie. It was an inspiring and professional group of teachers and I maybe want to become one of them in the future. I had an amazing time during the course.read more

And it is so good to have Simona, Amalia and Sherani around us. They always had open ears and eyes for our ‘problems’. To me, Omkar is an extraordinary aware and respectful yoga teacher. I loved to learn from him, he is so young (could be my son) and so wise. And, of course, the ashram is in a beautiful and calm environment.

When I was going to do this course I didn’t have any idea at how it will be, how my life will be... here. But I had a desire to learn. First few days were very hard, I guess all together like early meditation, food, people. Schedule was so new that all of us had to have time to adapt. When the first days passed, I start really to enjoy everything. The first times when we tried to teach each other all of us could hardly connect the right words together, but how after three weeks we freely give instructions. The progress is enormous compared to when we just came. The teachers are great, with every class each of them brought something new, the details. I’m very happy to study here and for sure I’m going to miss it all.read more
