- Our Story
From one living room to two ashrams and an online academy.
Arhanta Yoga started in the small living room of Ram’s house in Tilburg, the Netherlands, in 2007.
What began as a small yoga teaching initiative has grown into two beautiful yoga ashrams in Ram’s home country India and his second home, the Netherlands.
Our centers, spread over 17 and 4 acres of land respectively, provide a spiritual retreat and a serene haven for focused study and introspection.
