The course is comprehensive and well-designed, covering various aspects of yoga, from anatomy, asanas, lineages, mantra, pranayama, kriyas to bandhas. It is just a right mix of theory and practice, teaching me what yoga teachers should know and all the important points to pay special attention to. All Masters are very enthusiastic to teach and share their knowledge. Besides just teaching, they are so warm that they really care about students well-being and health, both physical and mental. I appreciate their care and vehemence deeply. I feel so profoundly indebted to their teaching and concern. I am truly enlightened and get to know what yoga really is. Yoga, now I understand, is the attitude towards life, and balance. How ignorant I once was, only knowing that yoga was just posture and asana. This understanding is really shallow, and if a yoga teacher really just focuses on asanas, and just keeps pursuing postures, it is somewhat misunderstanding the essence of yoga. I am very much inspired by the Masters. They taught me that yoga is in life, not in the studio. It is how you live as an integral person, with cultivation, love and peace in the heart that counts. Thank you, Masters. I will try to bring yoga to my everyday life. Besides, I get to know my limitations. I once tended to compare myself with the others, envious of what others could do. Now I try not to compare but respect myself. I come to know everyone has limitations, but we just get to accept them. We are what we are. Everyone is unique and got different structures. Just accept them and do what we can. Thank you, Masters, once again for enlightening me. Thank you.

I am so grateful to have joined the 200-hour yoga teacher training at Anahata. It has been a great and wonderful experience for me. The masters here are all very experienced and provide invaluable advice and guidance on our alignments and which postures would best suit our bodies and skills. In these few months, I have found myself progressing gradually from one who does not manage to do a headstand to one who can now do it for some time with some simple variations. I have gained more strength and also flexibility on my back throughout the training after attending the group and Andiappan classes by Masters Yogannath, Mahesh, Vishnu, Guruprit and Aarya. Not only do the practical classes benefit me, I am also very much inspired by the theory classes which lead us to the history and origins of the yoga, the various sutras, mudras, pranayama, etc, enriching us with the life philosophy of yoga. Master Yogannaths sharing of thoughts that there is no perfect posture but the only one which suits an individuals needs the most and that yogis should try to learn and experience the different modes and styles of teaching by different masters are indeed very impressive. Thanks to the generosity of masters, some of us have the opportunity to do a demonstration of a sequence at the big yoga event IRIS. That was again a very memorable and wonderful experience and I sincerely hope that the Andiappan Yoga Community will grow bigger and more and more people will benefit from understanding and doing yoga in the future. Some very minor remarks are that it would be better if more Andiappan classes are available in the evenings or on weekends. Furthermore, I believe members here would welcome more classes taught by master Yogananth as its really quite difficult, to register for masters classes.

I am a 25-year-old girl. The most important thing that I learned during YTT course was that yoga is not only about movements but also the spirit. Yoga had changed my mind from not willing to walk out my comfort zone to being positive on facing challenges. It seems like there is a voice telling me I can do even better. It was such an honour as one of the students of the classes. The masters are professional and patient on guiding me. They encourage my strengths and offer advice on my weaknesses and that is the most useful and meaningful part to help me keep improving my skills on yoga. Thank you so much.Namaste!

The training was a truthfully great experience. It is a very good first approach to Yoga and teaching. I very much like the spiritual aspect of the training. The anatomy and asana modules were great eye openers on my current limitations. I would say it is a good start to be a better teacher for myself and it gave me more willing to pursue in this direction. I also think it is a lot of information to digest in a short period of time, especially when dealing with office work. I would have hoped to have more time to assimilate and more time for andiappan classes. But it is part of life:)

Its been great weeks learning and getting more in-depth knowledge about not only yoga practices but also about the anatomy of human body and yoga history that deepen my understanding about yoga. It was a great course that had very clear outlines of learning materials every week, and I liked the way how the yoga masters tried to really train us to become successful instructors through providing very thorough feedback on individuals.

They are all very passionate about all aspects of yoga so I have learned a lot of knowledge and gain experience from them. I love the course. I would highly recommend for anyone who is interested in Yoga. If you have any doubt or question, you may ask masters after the classes, they are willing to answer and explain. I really enjoy being a student in the course, given lots of chances to learn and practice.

Thank you so much. I really appreciate the depth of knowledge and experience of all the masters. I have gained different experience from different masters. The amount of knowledge that I have obtained at Anahata Yoga is life-changing. and I grew an enormous amount intellectually, spiritually and emotionally over the course. I appreciate its clarity, commitment, and broad knowledge and experience. This is more than just an education, it was a life-affirming experience.

I had been practicing yoga for about a year and a half before I came across and applied for the part-time 200hr YTTC at Anahata Yoga. Yoga had helped me with my flexibility and state of mind and I was interested to deepen my knowledge of yoga and learn how to develop self-practice. I was basically doing a series of random asanas without really knowing the purpose of each one or if I was even doing them properly! The yoga masters at this studio are extremely knowledgeable about yoga from all aspects, with different masters teaching different modules of the course. I really appreciate how they are able to make that knowledge accessible and relatable to anyone regardless of their background knowledge. I could always approach them if I had any wonderings and everyone at the studio and the course were also very supportive. I feel the advantage of doing YTT part-time is that it provides you with time and space to digest all the wonderful things you are learning and have a go at experiencing them yourself. I would imagine it also makes the transition back to your normal life easier than if you had gone away for a month for an intensive course. Anahata Yoga also has a great community that provides you with opportunities to assist and eventually teach at community classes for when you "graduate", providing a great platform and support system for new teachers. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Anahata Yoga for making me feel welcomed and for inspiring me to deepen my practice!

Get to know more about yoga, knowing Yoga is not only about flexibility but many things as well. Will need to learn more in the future! The masters here are awesome, shows a lot of patience. and helpful!

I definitely recommend this RYT 200 course to my friends. Also, It is a milestone for me to take this course and I wish I could be a yoga teacher one day.

It was a very great experience for me to participle in the YTT training in Anahata Yoga. The Masters and staffs are all very friendly and caring. I am so glad that I have made the right choice taking the YTT course in here. The reason for me to take part in the YTT course is not only to learn fancy and advance poses but also to really understand what is yoga including the mental and meditation theory behind it which I think this course equipped me well with that knowledge. I completely understand that practicing yoga is an endless journey and I am sure I will keep going on this path. Please allow me to take this chance to thank you for all the masters who given me support throughout this course especially after found out I am pregnant. Without all of yours understand and support, I do not think I can get through this. Looking forward to rejoining the classes with more intense training after my delivery! See you all later.

It was a great experience to be part of this Yoga instructor training module. It opens my eyes on Yoga theory and practice by the amazing instructors and warm support of the fellows in my class. I was never a fitness or yoga person when I was young. I picked up exercise 10 years ago and it changed my life really. In recent years I started to practice yoga occasionally and becomes my interests in an in-depth learning. This is just a beginning and I still have a long journey to go. I will remain humble and keep learning on theory and practice of yoga and would like to become a yoga instructor one day to share my passion and knowledge to my students. Thank you so much for all the instructors of Anahata Yoga 🙂

After I completed YTT 200 hours and Yoga Therapy 300hours, I was looking for something challenging to do. Hatha Advance Level 1-2 was the perfect training to do since I was looking for something to deepen and develop my practice. I started my 30 hours self-practice earlier because I knew that my body needed to be ready for a minimum of 3 hours of intensive practice a day during this training. The poses are challenging, but we did an intensive warm-up and preparation every time and they showed us steps to follow to the final pose. Sometimes the final pose was too difficult for me, but we had variations and modifications of every asana. I felt very safe during the training, as Master Yogananth, Master Mahesh, and Master Kamal were very clear about how to prepare our body, performing safely avoiding injury. I learnt a lot of poses also in Sanscrit name, anatomy, benefits, and chakra awareness and technics regarding how to use props. I m very happy with the result, and I feel confident to do my home practice working on these beautiful poses. Thank you very much to the Masters that guided me and helped me to do my best. Namaste

It was a special experience for me to join the Level 1 course as a woman in midlife with stiff muscles. All of the final postures in the handout looked like mission impossible for me at the beginning. However, all the masters of Anahata are very professional, patient and helpful. We never got any chances to injure ourselves during the practice of those challenging poses. After the intensive three-week training, I can perform most of the variation and modification poses and feel great and blissful about it. Namaste

Level two was more intense than level 1. But quite enjoyable. Thank you so much!

Thank you Master Yogananth, Master Mahesh, and Master Kamal. It is a gift to be able to experience the practice with you. I have proved to myself the true strength I have, become more aware and living a better life. Namaste

This course was very practical and has taught me many different ideas and the overall concept o kids yoga. I especially like that we are allowed to teach an actual class, which is of course the best learning we can get.

I thought the teacher training experience was positive and I learned a lot. I also enjoyed learning from three yoga masters with different teaching styles. My favorite part of the course was taught by Master Yogananth because he focused on children's themes, asanas and variations, and how to sequence a class.

The kid yoga training is great! I never think of the theme and game that can make yoga to be fun. Teaching the kids needs to be more flexible, this class teach me a lot. I hope I could have more opportunity to practice the skillset that I learnt from the kid yoga class to enrich my teaching skill.

There are many of difficult postures, but I learnt how to approach to these difficult ones. I enjoyed the class so much!

I am grateful to complete this 200-hour YTT course at the Anahata Yoga. I did not have any regular yoga practise before the course though I have tried a few yoga classes in different studios/fitness centres before. My feeling to yoga was a relatively boring and slow exercise. From this 200-hour YTT course, I learnt more about the background of yoga in different areas, from its history, philosophy, asana, pranayama, mudra, bandha, teaching techniques etc. Through the intensive classes, I maintained a regular practise in the past few months and learnt different techniques from different talented yoga masters. More importantly, I learnt that yoga is a life-long learning and practising process. It taught me to observe and accept myself and yoga is not for comparison. I will continue my yoga journey starting from this 200-hour YTT course.

It was a great experience. I have gained an immense amount of yoga knowledge that is the yoga philosophy and anatomy. I was able to connect with other yoga enthusiasts through Anahata yoga. It has been a very fruitful few months and I am excited to share what I have learnt with others and also cannot wait go further with my yoga journey to take on the next 300 hours to extend my yoga knowledge and practice.

When I first joined Anahata Yoga studio, I didnt realise how this could be a life-changing experience. Before Anahata, I used to do yoga on and off however, this was the first time I took Yoga seriously and decided to do a yoga certification course. As time went by, I learned more about the history of yoga and human anatomy. As an Indian, I had expected that I knew a lot about yoga, however, with time, I realised I had a lot to learn. The course material provided by Anahata was very good and drew me to read more books and understand different facets of yoga. The tutors at Anahata have been an inspiration. They are all humble and very thorough with their teaching and practices. They all are very compassionate and cater to everyones needs. I also liked the Group sessions that Anahata provided as a bundle. These have helped me to practice my learnings and poses. I have been able to discuss with my family and teach them various poses and have long conversations on the benefits of yoga with them. By doing so, it has helped me solidify my concepts in my mind and build my own perspective on yoga. It has also helped me at a personal level as I have found myself getting calmer and more composed day by day and found a way to channel my stress in a positive manner. Anahata has helped me grow a lot as an individual and I believe that it is one of the best yoga studios Ive attended.
