 “The
Arhanta TTC has really surpassed my expectations. This course has
everything required to prepare anyone interested to become a
qualified Yoga teacher. No matter what your age or fitness levels
are, all that is required is an open mind and enthusiasm to learn.There was a lot of variety in the course along with
excellently planned schedule, the curriculum is very well rounded
with good coverage of Yogic philosophy, yogic way of lifestyle and
well challenging Yoga asana classes. The countryside setting is
ideal for the course as it is peaceful and located in an area
surrounded by diverse nature. I have met so many wonderful people
from around the world. I would highly recommend this course for
anyone thinking of becoming a Yoga teacher, it is an experience
never to be forgotten.” Bláthnaid Coffey, Ireland
 “My
experience at Arhanta has been exceptional. My asana practice has
improved immensely and my skills and confidence to be a Yoga teacher
have reached a point that I never imagined upon my arrival for the
course. I think this program attracts very kindred spirits, the
friendships made here are certainly going to be lifelong. The
teachers were an ideal balance between firmness and gentleness which
allowed for physical and mental growth and spiritual reflection.
This month has been incredibly challenging but a true catalyst in
spiritual journey. I look forward to go home and using the skills
and knowledge I have gained here to begin teaching Yoga.” Britney
Stables, Canada
 “I
am so thankful that I came to Arhanta ashram to learn how to teach
Yoga and develop my practice. Our teachers gave us the true
knowledge of Yoga in its authentic original form. My understanding
of yoga has come to a whole new level and I am inspired to live
better and be the person I want to be. I really enjoyed the simple
ashram atmosphere and the closeness between all the students and
teachers. It was very supportive and caring environment. I am very
proud of all of us for accomplishing our dream to teach Yoga and
look forward to seeing where our paths will take us, Thank you.”
Michelle Bunney, Canada
 “I
really enjoyed Arhanta TTC course. It was a lot of hard work but
also a lot of fun. The course was so much more than ‘How to teach
yoga’ it has changed my whole outlook on life. If you are planning
to take Arhanta TTC then you have to remain open minded and positive
– only then you can reap the full benefit of this course.” Ana,
England
 “The
Yoga teacher training course has been a complete roller coaster
which has challenged and pushed me in ways that have allowed me to
grow and develop as a person as well as a teacher. Surprising, I
feel completely prepared to go back home and start teaching, which
is a credit to the quality of teachings we have received here.”
Gale Hubbard, England
 “I
came here as a teacher already but I am going home as more
experienced and a confident teacher. I would highly recommend this
program for anyone who has been teaching or who wants to teach.”
Wendy Henshaw, USA
 “I
had a really great time in Arhanta, I really enjoyed everything in
this experience. I was happily surprised about the accommodation and
food but most of all the quality of the course was excellent. The
teachers are here for you, to support you, motivate you and answer
all your questions. I feel that the whole group (students and
teachers) became like a big family. I would recommend this course to
anybody interested in learning and experiencing classical Yoga.”
Sandra, France
 “Wonderful
experience ! Learned so much, would like to come back and learn more.”
Martin Kroes, Canada
 Going to
India is a big adventure, doing TTC is even a big one. The training,
basic accommodation, content of the classes and lectures, the
passion and professionalism from the teachers, the extra workshops,
the beautiful morning walks made this yoga teacher training course
very worthwhile, a lifetime experience! These 4 weeks showed me a
different truth about our world, Yoga, healthy life, natural food,
curing of diseases naturally and much much more! Thank you for all
for this great and wonderful experience. From knowledge to
awareness, we will keep in touch…warm regards.” Jeroen Van de
Kerkhof, The Netherlands
 “I
have had an amazing experience at the Arhanta Yoga ashram, I learnt
so much about myself and will be going home as a different person. I
learnt a lot from the teachers, their teaching system really works.
I didn’t think I could learn so much in such a short span of time.
The teachers are approachable and you can talk to them anytime about
your worries or concerns. The food was good and the accommodation
comfortable. I have met so many great people here, we have become
like family and I will be very sad to leave them but we will stay in
touch. It was hard in the beginning to be away from the family and
for me very intense but extremely worth it!” Jayne Mckey, United
Kingdom
 “This
month has been an amazing experience. I learned much more than I
expected I could in such a short period of time. I am fully
confident in my teaching abilities after completing this course. The
time I spent at the ashram deepened my Yoga practice and allowed me
to grow as a person. I shared every waking moment of the last month
with many wonderful people whom were something better in life via
the yogic path. I am lucky enough to call these people my friends. I
know that the lessons I learned and friendships I made at Arhanta
will last a lifetime.” Denise McWilliams, USA
 “One
month at the Arhanta Yoga Ashram was a special inner experience for
me. The atmosphere and the teachers really helped me to gain the
knowledge about the Yogic path which means more learning through
experience. I went through harder days as all of us here but in the
end I felt strong and ready to teach Yoga and this Is what I came
for.” Andrea Kmetz, Hungary
 “It
is a nice place here in the nature, I loved to see every day the
sunrise and the sunset with nice red sun. Our teachers were everyday
very motivated and they live what they teach. I have done a lot of
progress in my own yoga practice in the asanas, pranayama and
meditation. We got here all the knowledge and background for a Yoga
teacher.” Maja Schegg, Switzerland
 “The
last month has been a huge stepping stone in my life. I learnt to be
much more aware of life and all living things. My own yoga practice
has improved tremendously. I feel much fitter, stronger and
healthier. The program is packed with a high standard of teaching,
not only asana teaching but also on health, concentration etc.
Living together with all the other students and our teachers brought
us very close and I can now say I am at least 20 friends richer in
my life.” Hanne Cournede, Denmark
"I really enjoyed the time
here in the ashram. The teachers really do the best for you and I
really learned a lot here! I feel now prepared to give Yoga classes
in my town even for children, pregnant women and elderly people. The
food was very tasty and balanced with a lot of fruits. I really
enjoyed the location of the ashram, it is very green!" Claudia Suter,
Switzerland
"I didn’t know what to expect
when coming to this TTC. I wasn’t even sure how much I really wanted
to be a yoga teacher. Now, after the course I know that I want to go
home and teach. It has been such an amazing experience for me here.
I have really deepened my knowledge of yoga and what it really means
to live a yogic lifestyle and to be a teacher. I have been doing
yoga my whole life but this teacher training enhanced my own yoga
practice more than ever. It has been amazing to see my personal
practice grow so much in these last four weeks. The teachers are so
incredible and really have the right knowledge and the ability to
teach it so beautifully. I am so happy with what I have gained from
the course and my overall experience." Hanna Nicholson, USA
"The Arhanta Yoga TTC gave me
a beautiful foundation for a career in teaching yoga. It gave me
access to a great wealth of knowledge, along with the practical
skills to implement it. My own asana practice improved a great deal,
and I was exposed to several new practices that I look forward
growing into. I am thankful that I chose to come here." Eric
Ganassin, Canada
"The Arhanta TTC was a life
changing experience. I deepened my knowledge of yoga asanas and
beyond. The practice is of outstanding quality and the teachers
instructions are excellent. I can highly recommend the Arhanta Yoga
TTC for everyone with an earnest approach to yoga. It will
definitely enrich you as a person and prepare you to be a very good
yoga teacher." Tijan Ramahi, Germany/Palestine
"The Arhanta Yoga Ashram
Teacher Training Course was an experience I don’t think I could have
gotten with any other training course. The teachers were so
knowledgeable and gave us information to help us continue on the
path of yoga. The environment was simple, lush and comfortable. The
simplicity of our surroundings allowed us to stay focused during our
4 weeks of studying, teaching, breathing and living yoga. I grew so
much and was challenged in ways I have never been before. I am so
thankful for this irreplaceable experience and would recommend it to
anyone who has a desire to live a yogic lifestyle for a month. It
will make you want to continue on the path of yoga for a life time!"
Kristin Wetzel, USA
 "This course was challenging.
The teachers were well informed and enthusiastic and the
instructions were practical and clear. I came into this course only
intending to deepen my own practice, but now I am leaving with the
skills and confidence to be an excellent yoga teacher. I highly
recommend this course to anyone seeking an in-depth knowledge of
anatomy, theory and instructional practice." Jessica Baker, United
Arab Emirates
"I really appreciated my TTC
here. The teachers were great and they gave us a good and profound
approach of yoga in all its aspects. It has been a lot of work but
it has been worth it, for my own practice as well as for my
development as a teacher. I am thankful for everything that I
received and learned here." Céline Coyac, France/Bénin
"I would like to let everyone
know that coming here was a real challenge to my endurance for tough
situations. Was it worth it. Yes. I was able to overcome a lot of
obstacles. I am older than all of the students in the group and
probably the least flexible. The daily asana classes helped improve
my flexibility. The course was tough because you have so much to
learn and so little time and you always want to learn so much more
but time didn’t permit this. The teacher really taught you what you
need to know to start being a confident yoga teacher. I have learned
so much valuable information and am glad I came to India to learn
it. If you pick this ashram come with an open mind and heart and you
will succeed to starting your dream." Brenda Andringa, Canada
"Initially I didn’t want to
become a teacher, I wanted to do this course to develop myself and
experience the ashram life. During the course I really started to
enjoy the teaching and now I feel confident to teach at home. The
ashram if peaceful and surrounded be beautiful nature. I already
felt at peace after a few days, even though we got a lot of new
information to think about. Inspired by the great teacher I will
definitely change my way of living. I recommend this Yoga Teacher
Training Course to all people with an open mind!" Nina Voets, The
Netherlands
"By no means was Arhanta
teacher training easy, but nothing worthwhile in life is easy. My
own practice has grown and I feel like I have grown as a person. I
am looking forward to taking everything I learned back with me." Patsy Springer, USA
"The Yoga TTC was a great experience for me. I
learned a lot about myself, about teaching, about philosophy. The
teachers were great and shared a lot of their experiences. Giving a
good yoga class is not as easy as it feels like when you are not
teaching yourself. The past four weeks I filled my backpack with a
lot of information I am going to use in my daily life in the future.
I will never forget Khajuraho, the ashram and the beautiful tree in
front of the yoga hall." Mirte Slenders, The Netherlands
"I arrived with low
confidence in my teaching skills and now I could not feel more
comfortable teaching. The teachers really have a lot of knowledge to
give. The whole group really inspires you to keep pushing yourself.
I am extremely proud of myself after completing the Arhanta Yoga
Teacher Training Course. I recommend this course to people who enjoy
new experiences and have an open mind." Stephanie Leblanc, Canada
"I had a great time studying
here. All the teachers have great knowledge and they are very
helpful. Studying philosophy was challenging for me but I received a
lot of information that opened my eyes and that made me even more
interested in Vedic Philosophy. I can’t wait to read more books to
deepen my understanding. The How To Teach classes were great and
bursting with useful information. I didn’t have confidence to teach
at first, but with the help of my teachers I grew my understanding
and the confidence in myself and now I am very excited to start
teaching. Also my own practice has grown much more than I ever
expected. To learn about the classical Hatha Yoga and to understand
the correct alignment has helped me a lot and I am motivated to
keep practicing and to keep studying . Overall it was a wonderful
experience that was enhanced even more by the beautiful nature
surrounding us. I had an irreplaceable time!" Yuko Narimatsu, Japan
"When I came here I had no
idea what was Yoga actually, I thought it was just exercise, once I
got here I realized that yoga is a way to live my life. It’s not
just body, it is mind, soul, faith, knowledge. I won’t lie; it was
super hard way, every day I wanted to leave but I didn’t and I am so
happy that I stayed and now that I am finishing I realize that I
learn a lot and my life has changed. I really feel different. I want
to keep living my life this way and I am very happy that picked this
YTTC. I give a big GRACIAS to all of the teachers that make my YTTC a
lot easier. Thank you for believing in me and helping me with
everything. Thanks with all my heart, I will never forget this
experience." Isisneith Pernia, Venezuela / USA
"You will share your
experience with a variety of wonderful, interesting people. Prepare
to be challenged and encouraged to think and work beyond your
limits." Pamela Pletsch, Canada
"If you want to become a
Yoga teacher and are serious about Yoga you will learn a lot in this
course. If you are just looking to deepen your practice I don’t
think it’s the course- it’s not a Yoga vacation". Kaire
Kotsalainen, U.K./Estonia
"My confidence to teach
classical Hatha Yoga has increased significantly since beginning the
course. The “how to teach” contingent is very attentive to detail,
especially corrections and classical techniques. I am excited to
take this knowledge further". Nic Green, England
"This programs strength is
the low class size and the vast, comprehensive knowledge being
imparted to us. It is rigorous and challenging. The philosophy class
will open your mind infinitely – I am looking forward to using this
ancient knowledge to live a more profound, peaceful life in the
present. The asana class pushed me beyond my limits by taking me
back to a very traditional approach. Learning Classical Hatha Yoga
informed me about the values of Yoga and how it has gone wayward in
today’s world. Also, in the pedagogy class, the structure involves a
lot of practice and detail in correcting and teaching poses. As I am
completing this course, I am filled with optimism for the
possibilities coming my way as a result of the ways that this course
helped open my mind and heart. Pareena Lim, USA /Thailand
"The
Teacher Training Course is a very intensive course as mentioned on the website. My one
month study of the course was demanding of time where almost every
moment of the class is spent really for learning. The course was
also demanding of students knowledge and ideas and in exercising the
mind to think more profoundly and to learn and develop the better
understanding of the subjects whether in philosophy, asanas ,
practice of teaching and setting up yoga business classes. We had
bright, smart and well experienced teachers who provided good
insights, examples and ideas applying the teachings of the course in
practical life. The course material was comprehensive and I believe
we covered all areas important for the course. Going back home and
use the teachings gathered will be the most exciting par t of the
learning experience. Thank you for teaching and sharing !!!" Luz
Amlag, Philippines / USA
