Thanks Samyak

The 200 Hr TTC at Samyak is taught in the traditional gurukul (guru-shishya or master-student) style. The teachers were friendly and understanding. The school is located away from the main city amidst lush green fields of sugarcane. The infrastructure facility is great. Taxis are provided on request and prior permission needs to be taken before leaving the premises. Overall good experience. Thanks Samyak for a new lease on life!

The best decision of your life

I did my Ashtanga Yoga training at Samyak in Mar'18 and I can gladly say there wasn't one day throughout the training that made me question my choice. The training method, the Yoga philosophy, the serene environment, the wonderful teachers, the lovely caretakers, the delicious aunthentic healthy food, the list goes on why I believe Samyak was the best choice. Especially the fact that in this world of competition they have stuck to their roots and ensure they teach what actually Yoga is than fabricating and presenting distorted views.The teachers go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and rest assured there is no question that goes unanswered. They make you teach each other from the very beginning which helps a lot to develop teaching skills. By the end of the course each and everyone of our batch was so confident to teach and all that because of the teacher's never ending support. Even after the training they stay in touch to answer any questions that you still might have. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to get introduced and welcomed into the yogic world.

Ashtanga Vinyasa teacher training 2018

I can't say enough about how highly I see Samyak yoga. The teachers, Arvind and Rakesh are warm, kind, funny, and have an incredible depth of knowledge and capacity to teach. They challenge you, care for you, and they will continue to be a tremendous source of inspiration throughout my life.
The ashram is peaceful and beautiful and borders a majestic river and a bird preserve. Students are encouraged to meditate in nature.

The content of the course was very rigorous and deep. Yoga philosophy, anatomy, kirtan singing, Asana clinic focusing on alignment and teaching, and practice were the foundation for the course and there was a lot of interesting variation amidst that.

The rooms were nice and overall the value and quality of this program seems unbeatable.

At first I enrolled to other yoga…

At first I enrolled to other yoga school. Then, I got recommendations about Samyak yoga. After reviewing Samyak website I was impressed positively. I postponed the first enrollment and I enrolled to Samyak. It was the right choice!!! For me Samyak is a home, a family, a place and people where the spirit of yoga is in the roots! I extremely recommend Samyak! I’m waiting for my next time for 300h course. Thank you Samyak family, miss you!

Excellent school, professional teachers, beautiful environment

Samyak Yoga near Mysore is an excellent school where I had the privilege to learn for one month in January 2018. The teachers are extremely professional, the covered physical and theoretical knowledge is very comprehensive, I felt ready to start my own classes after the course.

Rakesh and Alvin are dedicated teachers…

Rakesh and Alvin are dedicated teachers with a wealth of knowledge between them. They are supportive, interested and understanding.I flourished during the course. The situation is a lovely one with the river close by-it was my favourite place to relax. Support staff are lovely and do their best to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
As well as incredibly thorough teaching of the asanas, breaking them down, the chance to teach beginning with small groups, and lots of tips about managing classes there was chance to learn some philosophy. I would have welcomed the opportunity to debate and discuss issues that came up.........to talk about my views as a westerner, and clarify my ideas about eastern philosophy. I feel it would have been more stimulating to engage in a conversation with other students and the teacher. I would also have welcomed a restorative class in the afternoons. This is a demanding course, both physically and mentally. That said I would have no qualms in recommending it.

Namaste Jenny,

Thank you so much for your kind words and detailed review.

We appreciate it. Given the intensity of the practice and less-time, often we are unable to give as much time as we want to. However, we will note this and bring into the structure of the training. Along with some restorative classes :)
