Student Feedback

Hear what our past and present students have to say about our Teacher Training Programmes.

Below is my feedback and learning experience: I have been practicing yoga since 2011 and suffered from low back pain for several years. I want to learn the correct alignment from yoga so that I took the 200hrs YTT at Anahata Yoga. From this course, I have deeply understood about many information of yoga anatomy, physiology, history, pranayama, mudra and asana. From the 30 hours group class practice, the back care class which were conducted by Master Vishnu, Nirmal and Mahesh were a great help to me. Thank you so much for the team of knowledgeable, experienced and professional masters teaching us yoga from the heart. I look forward to studying and practicing at Anahata Yoga again in the future. Namaste

It was an amazing experience, learning so much every single day of the Yoga Teacher Training Course from knowledgeable masters with a lifetime of experience. Learning at such a pleasant atmosphere, from an authentic source about both the theory and history of yoga was fascinating. As for the practical part, getting very hands-on instruction was great. I felt myself improve in my practice after the course. Despite having to work full-time during the course, with a busy schedule, the early mornings and late nights during the period of the course was worth it. Im beyond satisfied and happy that I decided to join the course and would like to join more teacher training courses in the future to deepen my knowledge and improve my yoga practice.

Although I have practised yoga for almost ten years, I have never experienced such an in-depth self-transformation as what I learned from yoga masters in the Anahata Yoga school. All yoga masters teaches my classmates and I with enthusiasm. They will answer what we queries and interested patiently during class or even after class in order to ensure we understand well. What I learned from the training is all individuals are unique physically and mentally. We should respect the uniqueness during the yoga practice. Hence, we shall never compare oneself with others. Try our best. We sometimes shall accept our limitation and let go if we have already do our best. I am delighted to meet professional yoga masters and supporting classmates during training course. Ending of this 200-hour training course marks the beginning of my next step of yoga journey. In order to advance my horizons in yoga learning, I have already signed up the coming Advanced Hatha Yoga teacher training course. Namaste

I have learnt a lot about different aspects of yoga (history, philosophy, physical, mental etc.) from this Teacher Training Program, and it has made me want to learn further more about yoga. All masters, Anurag, Yogananth, Vishnu, and Mahesh taught us with all their heart and much energy, they gave detailed explanations and answered every question patiently. The program is structured nicely with a well balanced mix of theory and practical. I really enjoyed going through the Program with my dear classmates. It was great synergy having classmates to learn, discuss, practice, and grow together.

The 200hr Yoga Teacher Training at Anahata was an experience that is truly enriching. During the first month that we discussed all theories, Masters Vishnu and Anurag both were very patient in explaining all the basic theories. After which, we discussed body anatomy, history of yoga, types of yoga, yogic literature, styles of yoga, the 8 limbs of Ashtanga yoga, pranayama, kriyas, mudras and bandas. We also discussed teaching techniques which was very helpful if we are to teach beginners yoga straight after the course. These information learned from all the theory classes are very helpful in attaining a deeper knowledge on my practice, but what I enjoyed learning about most were the different types of asanas, and how to teach them, from Master Yogananth. He was very patient in going through each asana in the module, having us do it first, and then teaching us how to teach the asana effectively to others. This module was also the main chunk of the course. Now that the course is finished, I am so thankful that I decided to finally go ahead with the course. I now have a holistic view of yoga, that it is indeed a way of life. My practice will never be the same again, as from before I started the course. I now view yoga as something that is part of me, a way of living that does not just deal with fitness or physical health, but also mental and spiritual health too. I would like to especially thank our teachers, Master Vishnu, Master Anurag- for being ever so patient with your teaching, and for sharing with us your stories, personal experiences, connecting with us and answering all our questions. And also to Master Mahesh, for helping out whenever he could. I enjoy his classes very much too. I would also like to give Master Yogananth the biggest thank you, because without his patience, and his contagious passion for yoga, this course would not have been so successful. Master Yogananth and his kindness of heart, lightness of being and sincere love for others, has really made me develop a deeper love for yoga. I will be recommending this course to other friends and family, and might even take another course in Anahata Yoga, HK. Truly worth it!

I have gained more knowledge of yoga in all aspects after this training course. More practices on asana and meditation could be done. Working with a partner certainly helps enhancing the experience as it is always easy to watch the demonstration but its different when you actually do the posture. Good vibes throughout the class.

I joined the 4-month 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training course at Anahata yoga with the aim to enrich my personal knowledge: to learn the philosophy of yoga its relation with human anatomy as well as proper teaching technique to prepare myself for my interest outside of regular work. Overall, I was satisfied with the teachers quality and course content. The different modules of the course set a proper foundation for new yoga teachers. The practical modules also helped us understand our own anatomy and limitations and how to work around them. The teachers are very knowledgeable in their subjects and tried their best to answer all our inquiries even after class hours. All in all, I would definitely recommend the course to anyone who is interested in learning the basics of teaching techniques in yoga / those who would like to improve his / her own knowledge in yoga.

Overall, I enjoyed my experience with the 200-hour YTT at Anahata Yoga. The teachers seemed very knowledgeable and passionate about the practice of yoga, and they welcomed questions or concerns. Regarding the 30 hours of self-practice, I was glad for the opportunity to learn from different instructors and experience different class and teaching styles. I feel that I learned a great deal about the history and background of yoga, as well as the poses and parts of the body.

It was such a great experience of have my first 200hrs YTT in Anahata. I truly felt every Masters in Anahata are teaching us with heart. Yogananth and Vishnu are yoga guru with fruitful experience that they always are willing to share with us. I will definitely consider to continue my yoga study in Anahata.

For the TT course, I found it very fruitful in deepening the inner depth knowledge of yoga. It is not only the asana I had learnt for not hurting myself by doing postures right, but the spirit and philosophy behind and being explained clearly into details of anatomy, mind and soul. Thanks sincerely here for all Masters who had been teaching patiently and intellectually. Bravo!

I signed up this course to deepen my own practice and to develop my body and mind prior to leaving Hong Kong. Now I am so pleased that I decided to take my YTT with Anahata Yoga in this time. Thank you so much for one of the best experiences ever. I know “life changing” can be used often, but I really feel it has been for me now. I can honestly say I learned a lot there, and enjoyed the time I spent during the training, group lessons and “Andiappan Yoga” practices. I would highly recommend this course to friends and I am even considering returning in a few years for the advanced teacher training. Towards the second week and into the third week, I really started feeling wonderful, joyful and being positive on practicing in any teachers group lessons and “Andiappan Yoga” classes. Learning yoga philosophy was also a great experience for me. It brought me a change with a deeper understanding of yoga and life itself. All teachers will be part of me forever. Master Yogananth with his great guidance on asana practice, Master Vishnu with his amazing knowledge and enthusiasm on teaching and healing people, Master Anurag, incredible yoga teacher with an incredible voice, soul and energy. Beside above three main teachers, all instructors in Anahata Yoga are so kind and skillful on teaching. I cannot express in writing how grateful I am to have had the opportunity to learn from those teachers on this course. And hopefully, Andiappan workshops or any training courses will be held in Osaka region, Japan in not so far future. With heartfelt thanks to all who were part of this journey.

The Anahata 200-hours Yoga Teacher Training Certificate Course has deepened my understanding of yoga. The yoga masters who teach the course are impressive with their commitment to a yogic lifestyle and their vast knowledge. Throughout the teaching, the yoga masters shared how yoga can help with different physical ailments and disease. I had already learnt about the ‘energy’ flow of Chakras and the importance of diet in yoga but this was my first introduction into learning Yoga through Yoga anatomy and developing an understanding of how asanas and pranayama work with the muscles, bones and joints. I began to understand poses in terms of strengthening and stretching muscles, working with the body and understanding the differences in lateral stretches, lengthening, twisting and rotations, for example. I learnt the importance of sequencing asanas to work with the body and with the movement of air. I have always preferred the active meditation and flow of breathe, I find in the sequence of asanas. Yet, during this course I have understood the fundamental role of pranayama, mudra, bandha and kriya in ones practice. I also have a renewed sense for mediation. I found the assignments not only a great opportunity to reflect on what I had indeed learnt from the course but also to continue to deepen my understanding.

The course has taught me a lot. Not only on the theory but how to apply the principles of yoga in daily life. I have also learned the reasons behind the poses and the sequences, how to think and analysis for each pose based on the anatomy and the type of the pose, how can it combined with the warm-up exercise and the neutralizing pose. Last but not least, how it gave me the opportunity to understand more deeply into yoga.

I love the course. I have learnt so much about yoga from this course. It first cleared all the wrong ideas I had about yoga, and it also instilled in me what yoga really is. Teachers are great with many years of experience. They are very passionate about all aspects of yoga, such as Mudra, Bandha, Asana, Meditation and Pranayama. They always tried their best to help or give you options when you cant approach an asana. Besides, all the teachers know their subject thoroughly so they will provide you with answers to all your questions. Instructions are given clearly, so that even beginners like me feel confident that I can to do a more advanced asana or become good at yoga eventually. Also, all the admin staff is very friendly and easy-going and always ready to help when you need them. After the course, students are also given chances to work with different charity groups to put what we have learnt into practice.

Instructors were all knowledgeable and experienced. I can feel their enthusiastic to yoga. Yoga Theory was very informative and useful.

In the first session, I was enlightened by Master Yogananth when he was explaining what yoga is. At that moment, I suddenly realized that I was only practicing asanas in the past without knowing the real meaning of yoga. I felt so insufficient and ignorant. However, instead of bewildered, I was inquisitive in further understanding yoga. After attending Master Anurags module on Introduction on Yoga Theory, I then have much clearer concept on philosophy of yoga, which provided me the foundation in understanding the profound orthodox of yoga. The meaning and concepts of “The eight limbs of yoga”, the ways to clear my soul with Yama and Niyama, the ways to achieve harmony of yin and yang inside the body through practicing asanas, kriyas and pranayamas, and the means to achieve Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi all these were brand new horizon for me to explore. I now feel like having something beautiful to pursue throughout my life time, which can lead me to the highest spiritual status. And I hope I can somehow influence the people next to me, simmer down the restless souls and savour the joy of life with them.
