Student Testimonials
Oceane, France
I want to suggest this school to everybody. I spent one amazing month in this ashram . I left France with my own skills in yoga as a casual student. Here I learnt the real YOGA with indian teachers with a beautiful soul, knowledge and took care of us. We were a close group of girls who share everything with smile, patient and love . After this experience, for sure Im coming back to India to continue my study. thank you to all teachers.
Veronica Blanarova, Spain
I had successfully completed the 200 Yoga Teacher Training gaining my teaching certificate. I had truly an incredible – life changing month at the Avdhoot Ashram and have learned a huge amount in such a short period of time. I had also grown as a person both physically and mentally. I am very confident in my asanas and get into poses deeper than ever, and my mind seems sharper and more focused. I am ever so grateful to my incredible teachers Vikas, Siddhant, Vicky and Vipul, and of course to IYMS Rishikesh for all that I had learned. Namaste.
Jan Hammer, Germany
I have attended a yoga teacher training at IYMS Rishikesh in July 2017. I can clearly say it is very authentic – people are nice and kind, teachers are great and inspiring, food is nutritious and generous in quantity and lastly the housing is clean, comfortable and adequate for an Ashram. I would recommend going there for a training or a retreat. It is truly a great and authentic Indian experience! Namaste!
Bailey Murphy, United Kingdom
My 200hr Hatha certification course at IYMS Rishikesh was an incredible and authentic experience. I learned so much about asana, meditation, pranayama, philosophy, etc. I especially enjoyed the asana classes by Sonu and Vikash, I was able to really take my practice to a deeper level. The course was intensive but in a good way, although it would’ve been nice to have more reference texts beyond the fundamental Asana Pranayama Mudra Bandha text, and clearer communication about course progress and expectations. The small group size was awesome!
