What students keep repeating
Five themes come back in review after review: safety for solo women, the food, the remote location becoming the best part, teachers as family — and "a true education, not a retreat".
“As a solo female traveler, I always felt completely safe and supported.”
“I was slightly concerned about being away from the main market area, but it quickly became one of the greatest advantages… I felt safe, supported, and cared for.”
“This school offers something different from many teacher trainings in places like Bali or Thailand. There is a strong connection to the roots, philosophy, and deeper traditions of yoga.”
“The teachers are truly the best teachers I have ever known and the entire staff are loving and caring like you are part of the ashram's family.”
“The vegetarian meals are prepared with love and very high-quality ingredients. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable and readily answer all our questions.”
“Even when I had left and had trouble with taxis, I called them and they saved the day! The food was delicious and the atmosphere and accommodation was 10/10.”
“Amit ji taught me that a challenging class does not require the teacher to be uptempo and energetic. In the storm of my struggles, his voice was the anchor to still my mind.”
“To Dr. Vivek, who answered all our questions with kindness and generosity, always giving us his time with patience and care.”
