The 200 Hours Yoga Teacher Training Certificate Course is comprehensive and what I have experienced is far more than the 200-hr course included. First, the 40 hours self practice allow me to try all different types of yoga class, from Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, Yoga balance and core yoga. Throughout these practice, I have learnt more about asana practicing, more on self improvement, focusing more on enjoying yoga and find myself more calm and balance. Master of each class always provide their professional instructions and advice which allow me to enjoy the classes I have attended. The 30 classes of Adiappan yoga practice are the best and very valuable time for my practice. Each one or two hours class allows us to first, doing group practice, then do self practice under supervised by masters. I particular like the choices of class, from Shoulders and upper back, back bending, hips and hamstrings, wall series, inversion, and twisting, so I can do practice focusing on particular body parts which I hope to improve. In the YTT course, my classmates and I attended to the classes twice a week since November last year. It has been a long but fruitful journey, as we have been guided and have discovered the world of yoga from its history, philosophy, basic anatomy of human, asana practice, teaching practice and techniques. We have opportunities to exchange our ideas when we have discussion together and we have our doubts cleared when we asked questions to masters during the course. And the yoga journey is not only about doing poses, it is all about getting know more about ourselves and find the peace. I enjoy the class a lot especially when I can find myself improve a little each time after both theory classes and practical classes. I would like to send my deepest gratitude to all masters in the classes that I have attended, thank you for your teaching and I hope I will see you again in my upcoming yoga journey. Namaste.

Simply awesome, inspirational and unbelievable! Many thanks for the Masters for their exceptional guidance as well as patience in guiding each student in exploring the potentials of Yoga.

After completing level 1, I noticed that I gained a lot in strength and flexibility. I learnt that yoga is a long journey and although I really wanted to achieve some postures, my body regularly reminds me that it needs more time to reach the requested level. In a way, I learnt about patience and listening to my body. I also learnt how some fears can influence the ability to make good postures. For example, until the end of level 2, I was always using the wall for all inversion/ arm balancing poses as I was super scared to fall. With the help of the Masters and regular practice, I progressively tried inversions without the wall and I also practices the fall. Since then my fear are much lower and it is a real improvement for me. I also learnt which postures to use for back pain as it is very useful for me and to teach to people around me. Overall, I learnt a lot about postures, body muscles and joints and most importantly to be aware of my own body, including its strengths and limitations.

Learned so much in this course. very elaborate teaching.

Apart from broadening my horizon regarding to advanced asanas, what matters most to me is to know more about myself and how to improve my practices in future.

The 200-Hour teacher training provided a thorough and holistic view of yoga for me. After 2 years of practice, I was looking to deepen my understanding of my asana practice and yoga journey as a whole. I connected deeply with the Anatomy module as well as the Ayurvedic modules that I can use in my teaching and practice. Thank you to all the dedicated masters at Anahata who has helped gain more confidence and guided my on my path.

This course has opened my eyes to yoga and it is so interesting to get to know so much of the history of yoga and theory behind each pose. All the instructors are really nice and knowledgeable and through this course, I can see what I'm lacking in, even the most common pose has so much to learn about.

It was quite an enriching experience. This programme not only provided the physical flexibility but gave me the much needed peace of mind. it changed my perception about yoga that it is not only about the poses but about connecting mind and body with soul.

It was an amazing 3 month journey and authentic yoga experience. I have learned so much and these 3 month education broadened my knowledge and corrected some of misunderstading I have had about yoga for very long time. Experience at Anahata was truly unique as this was the first institute or school that put heavy emphasis on the truth where yoga is not only about asana, fitness regime but a complete system, of which asana takes very small part. And the entire purpose of yoga is spiritual in mind and body, harmony as whole. I have enjoyed all various types of groups classes and appreciate different teaching method, different approaches, different types of yoga. It has helped me to gain better understanding of what types of yoga classes are available and suits for me depending on my physical condition, weather, time of the day to practice etc. Andiappan class was something that I rarely can see in any other institute or school in Hong Kong. I obtained a lot of knowledge on a lot of postures or practices using tools to approach asana and help with achieving correct alignment. One suggestion I would like to share is the possibility of offering Andiappan class for beginners or basic/intermediate level (or basic asanas appeared on 200 hour YTT booklet). I found that the level of warm up poses or asanas during Andiappan classes I’ve attended were aimed for intermediate/advanced level so as a beginner, it was challenging to practice modification/variation pose without digesting or grasping the basic alignment of the asana. Over all, again it was truly delightful experience for me and I’ve enjoyed every module of the classes and teachers. Namaste!

I enjoy the course very much and I have a deeper understanding and knowledge in yoga. All masters are very experienced and patient in teaching and guiding us along our yoga journeys.

After finish the 200 training course, I think I have learned a lot. It was not just the physical exercises but more beyond it. The history and anatomy parts of yoga let me know more about the yoga itself and know my body better. I like the masters in anahata who always give me useful suggestion and advice. I like the environment in anahata where feels so peaceful. It was a good start for my yoga journey and I will keep doing yoga as my lifestyle.

As I have been taking this course, I am more satisfied than I expected I would be. First of all, all masters are very passionate about teaching and have considerable expertise in every aspect of yoga. They actively interact with students and kindly help them to do self-practice in Andiappan class. That’s why I could improve a lot very fast on the knowledge as well as asana. I also could gain a lot of knowledge about the muscles involved in some of the specific asana through anatomy class, and could enhance spiritual awareness through meditation class. Especially, the final demonstration was very helpful in wrapping up all the knowledge that I acquired from this course and understanding making a sequence for a yoga class with benefits, contraindications, warm-up, modifications, neutralizing and variations etc. Yoga has been a means to balance and harmonize my body, mind and emotions. I will continue on with my own yoga journey, keeping this amazing experience at Anahata as a momentum. Namaste!

The course was incredibly interesting and I feel I have gained a lot of knowledge to improve my own practice, as well as taking the steps towards becoming a teacher in the future. I thought the Masters were very knowledgeable and I enjoyed learning from Masters with different teaching styles. Namaste

My experience in this 200 Hours Yoga Teacher Training has been great. I was able to fully understand the different ways of teaching through different masters and apply it to the learnings that was taught throughout class. Learning the different muscles group also enlightened me to deeper understand my body and how to prevent injuries during practice. I would definitely recommend this course to others when they want to do yoga teacher training.

This course has been a great experience. Love the flexibility of having choice of morning, evening or weekend class. Love the idea of having students to attend andiappan and regular classe to gain insight of yoga. The Masters are very knowledgeable. They are happy to share their experience. However, I would love to have more guidance of how to teach a a flow class. Namaste

Anahata yoga brought me a great experience of learning yoga. I have been practicing yoga for over 3 years on and off, but the previous practice was like doing exercises without deeply understand about what yoga is. Masters are excellent and they helped me to build a good foundation. The course was comprehensive and informative which helps me to improve a lot. After taking this course I can feel yoga is changing me. Thank you! NAMASTE:)

The 200 hour yoga course at Anahata Yoga was a truly wonderful learning experience. I have practiced yoga for many years but still felt some trepidation in taking a teacher training course. I wondered if I was physically fit enough, needed to work on public speaking or classroom presentation, or general teaching skills. For these reasons, I postponed my desire to undergo yoga teacher training for many years. However, my anxieties were immediately calmed as I began the course and I understood that in my yoga training journey, the other skills would naturally fall into place. Being present to the knowledge was all that I needed to do, and it has transformed my way of thinking and all areas of my life. I am more calm, more present, and happier. I am not as easily bothered by minor stresses in life. Further, yoga poses that I have struggled to achieve for years suddenly became easy and accessible. The Masters at Anahata Yoga are a treasure for Hong Kong, and I am so thankful to have this special place to study. Areas of the course that I enjoyed the most were breathing and meditation. It was also helpful to learn anatomy. I would like to further my learning about the chakras and yoga poses that benefit specific purposes. I am now signed up for the Pranayama training course and Yoga Therapy and look forward to continuing my yoga education.

I learned a lot from the course, but not just about yoga. I also discovered more about my own strengths and weaknesses. I liked that the course explored the origins and theories of yoga in depth. But I wish more time was spent on class sequencing. Getting to learn from a number of masters, all with their own perspectives and approaches to the practice of yoga, is a huge benefit. The teachers are all very patient. However, I would say that overall experience is one that I have already recommended to others!

I really enjoyed this course. I not only learned proper alignment for my asana practice, different styles of meditation practices but I learned how to emerge in present moment fully activated and at peace within my body and mind.I had found a wonderful balance with yoga. The courses give a good background knowledge of theory, as well as practice. I have got a lot of new knowledge and practice experience that I have never got in my yoga practice before.The masters are very professional and supportive to students. They taught me that yoga is not just exercise, it is a way to live a better life. Thank you for all those teachings that you have given to me. This learning experience has changed my life forever.

For anyone looking to advance their practise and yoga journey, this is the course.

The Level 1 Advanced Hatha Yoga Teacher Training was a very challenging yet enjoyable experience for me, in which I furthered my practice in yoga and gained insight into the future paths that I could take as a yoga enthusiast.

One word: Amazing experience.

It was an amazing experience, and many thanks to all Masters for their inspirational teaching, and also to my classmates for their support. My entire yogic journey has been transformed by moving closer to the heart of what Yoga is all about.

I learnt the strengths and weaknesses of my body through the different postured taught by the Masters. For example, although I was previously aware of my lack of hamstring flexibility, I however discovered that I have a good back bend and that I am quite comfortable with balancing poses. I learnt how to prepare a posture and which counter postures to use to neutralize the stress on the muscles and joints. I also learnt how breathing helps to relax the muscles and find a good balance in different postures.

In Level 3, I could learn the teaching method and it was so valuable. I started teaching after finishing level3 and now I feel I understand what I have to do in a class when I teach. Thank you
