"Great experience"

Instructors are very good and the program is rich and intense.

Location is perfect, away from the busy town but still a short ride away from any interest points.

Rooms and common areas are cosy and clean.

"My happy place 🧘‍♀️☀️"

Es war eines der schönsten Wochen in meinem Leben. Ich war mir persönlich selten so nah und habe mich richtig wohl gefühlt.✨

Einmal die Woche macht man einen Ausflug (immer unterschiedlich). Wir waren am Virgin Beach.Das war auch toll. Selbst am Strand haben wir für 45min Yoga praktiziert.

Mein Highlight war, dass wir einmal statt der Mediationsstunde eine Sing/Tanzstunde hatten. Alle trugen etwas weißes und man fühlte sich frei und glücklich. Für mich war es eines der schönsten Momente im Retreat.

Mein Zimmer (ich hatte ein Einzelzimmer mit Doppelbett) war schön und großzügig.Eher einfach aber schön. Alles was man brauchte war vorhanden. Ich hatte das Zimmer direkt am Pool, mit riesiger Terrasse für mich alleine.

Das Essen habe ich geliebt. Jeden Tag gab es 3 vegetarische Gerichte und sehr vielfältig. Das war jedes Mal ein Highlight. Hätte ich einen Wunsch frei, würde ich mir diese Essensvielfalt für zu Hause gerne wünschen ❤️.

In den 7 Tagen hatte ich 5 Massagen für je 1h inklusive. Sie waren super gut und meine Masseurin war auch super lieb.

Die Teilnehmer und die Veranstalter waren alle sehr lieb und hilfsbereit. Für alle "Probleme" hat man eine Lösung gefunden.

"It was not a retreat. I had a room in a yoga school."

It is a very good traditional yoga school. I liked the place, the facilities and the location.

Good people managing the school and good teachers.

Shame that the "retreat" was not advertised properly.

I am impressed by the staff at Bali Yoga School. They were so polite and helpful. Everyone made me feel very welcome. I am not vegan but I really love the food served at every meal. The fruits were so sweet and the rest flavourful, with catchy names.

"Yoga School Bali Review "

Instructors was very nice with a positive approach. I have learned a lot in two weeks time. The classes was in a nice flow. We had longer break to rest or relax in between the lunch and the next class. I would highly recommend this place and people working there. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Very peacful and relaxing place.I definitely will come back for the class when around Bali. Thank you for so nice experience.

"300hrs Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training"

I cannot recommend the 300hr Yoga Teacher training with Himalayan Yoga Ashram highly enough. I was very impressed by the comprehensive and in-depth information provided during the course - from the daily physical yoga practices to the technical anatomy classes, and detailed discussions with the different teachers on yoga philosophy, meditation, breathing techniques, Mudra practice and Ayurveda.

I definitely deepened my knowledge about many inter-related topics from a traditional point of view rather than mainstream yoga. I must mention the anatomy classes provided a solid foundation of the mechanics of the body in a way that is easy to relate to rather than learning without real understanding. The feedback on the assignments was very constructive and encouraging at the same time, inviting the student to reflect on their development.

After completing the course, I felt an even greater love and appreciation for yoga. More than that, it indeed prepared me and gave me more confidence for teaching in a classroom environment, and inspired me to continue learning, practicing, and walking the path of yoga.

"Great insights for self-pace online yoga teacher training"

Himalayan Yoga Association provides an extensive and complete teaching manual. The pre-recorded training videos can be viewed anytime, anywhere, at our own pace. The daily zoom live classes are useful for our understanding on the various topics of yoga, in which we can ask the teachers to clarify another questions that we have. I would love to visit Rishikesh some day. Thank you the wonderful course. Special thanks to Saumya-ji.

"Beautiful Online Teacher Training - Thank you"

I'm so grateful for this experience, thank you so much. I took part in the 300hr Online Yogateacher Training during November this year. It was a great experience for me. I found the Yoga Theorie liveclasses very clear and systematic, the information was just on point and I enjoyed this month full of Yoga a lot. I also got in touch with the other students of this course, which was also really nice and felt like a small community, this I did not expect of a online training. So this was very pleasant. I also enjoyed the practical live classes a lot and I'm happy getting into Ashstanga Yoga. The small groups make this online yoga teacher training kind of more private and less anonymous so I could ask all my upcoming questions during the live classes. Thank you all so much, Bali Yoga School and HYA.

"Good value for money course"

It’s a beautiful school with good location. All the staff are helpful and friendly and the teachers are very professional. The Balinese vegetarian meals are yummy with different varieties everyday. I enjoyed the time studied here and will recommend my friends to come too.

"Impression générale "

L’endroit est magnifique, l’emploie du temps est parfait, la cuisine est très belle et très bonne.

Les professeurs sont juste incroyable, ils m’ont personnellement mis à l’aise tout de suite et on sent que malgré leurs jeunes âges ils maîtrisent parfaitement leurs travail que ce soit en théorie ou en pratique. Neelam Ji, drôle et passionnée. Durgesh Ji, calme et apaisante. Rahul Ji, très professionnel et très patient et pour finir Ankit Ji, mon professeur préféré, amusant et challengeant, un veritable vent de fraîcheur en classe. Merci à tous les quatre pour votre gentillesse, votre patience et la passion que vous mettez dans votre travail. Je n’hésiterai pas à refaire l’expérience avec les mêmes professeurs. ❤️🙏

"Incredible experience and unforgettable memories "

Love the alignment, Vinyasa and Ashtanga class a lot. Ankit ji and Rahul ji are both very professional and full of knowledge to pass on. I’ve learned beyond my expectations. Especially thanks to Durgesh ji and Dewa ji for taking good care of all students. Accommodation was lovely and all the staffs were so welcoming, love the local family lived just next to us. Feel myself travel like a local people. It was also first time for me change diet into vegetarian but the food was so delicious and various options so actually it helped a lot for me to low my fat and built muscle. Overall it was a incredible experience for me. Had a really fun and nice time with Bali yoga school.

"Great, demanding teacher training! "

I’ve been doing yoga for 8 years now, so I was a little worried to not learn as much. But the training was Way more greater than expected! Lovely teachers with personality and a caring heart, pushing us to our save limits. I can only recommend Bali Yoga School to anyone ☺️

"Amazing and lifetime changing experience"

I enjoyed the time spent here and forever grateful for everything I learned. The teachers are very knowledgeable, super helpful and good hearted people. It felt like being with family.

It is such a beautiful space where one can truly connect with self. I was able to meditate peacefully, get deeper thanks to the teacher's guidance and energy.

To you reading this, if you still hesitating about taking this time and be in a space where you can feel pureness, connectedness of mind, body and soul and intrinsic well being, please do go. I truly recommend this and hope you make it :)

Ubud Is a lovely place to go too. Both Durgesh, Dewa, Ankit and Rahul were lovely people and did their best to rectify the many problems that the school actually has!

"A very disappointing experience "

Hard to say what I like, as almost every aspect was a disappointment. The pool at the accommodation was quite nice and the manager of the accommodation was very helpful. I felt she was embarrassed about the poor quality of food they were serving, which was suggested by the yoga school. Most of the accommodation of the other students was quite nice, however my friend and I was situated away from them and our rooms had a lot of mould in them. On checking out, I found a few of my clothes had mould however the manager was very helpful and got them cleaned promptly.

Ankit and Rahul - they are very young but have passion to teach. especially Rahul, he is willing to spend extra time to teach students for advance poses.

The course Co-ordinator - Deva tried his best to fix the problems and take actions.

"Loved the teachers, not so much the management. "

Rahul Ji was our Vinyasa teacher, he was full of energy and was very spontaneous and passionate about sharing his knowledge in yoga. I loved his classes. From him, we also learnt a lot about traditional adjustment techniques, which were really fun to learn and to try on each other. Ankit Ji's alignment classes were very clear and detailed. He always made sure we understood all the points. I also liked how he supplemented his Ashtanga practical classes with a bit of theory. Aylan Ji taught us Pranayama. The classes were very nicely delivered, and her journey in yoga was very inspiring. Durgesh Ji's meditation classes were exceptional. It was clearly structured, well explained and very, very enjoyable.

We had 2 different teachers for Meditation, 2 different teachers for Alignment, 2 different teachers for Pranayama and 2 different teachers for Ashtanga. It was good to experience different styles of teaching.

We stayed in Puri Suksma. It was a bliss to practice and study in a place surrounded by nature. We had visits from monkeys and squirrels, I've seen at least 5 different types of ants and at least 3 different types of butterflies. It was like living in a National Geographic documentary.

I met the most beautiful souls from all over the world and learnt so much from them. Upon completion of this programme, I made new friends, I'm more aware of my body, have discovered other aspects of myself and have become a much better yoga practitioner. For this, I'm really grateful.

"Great knowledge and training getaway"

I love how this experience brings me back to simplicity. Simplicity of the mind, expectation, resources, food in particular, and relaxing locations.

I appreciate all the hard work and preparation the teachers have done.

Great learning in Yoga Asanas by Rahul Ji & Ankit Ji, Types of Breathing by Aylan Ji, and Meditation by Durgesh Ji.

Feels like I've been there for a long time and didn't feel like to leave.

"7 days of living in a dream."

I stayed at the retreat for 7 days. This was run by Dewa and his wife who were wonderful hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. The guest house was charming with a lovely pool. The massages by Mini were invigorating and the yoga by Cynthia and Armin just perfect. If you need a break from the chaos this place has got all the right ingredients.

"Was an amazing experience "

The teachers were a wealth of knowledge and provided us with everything that we needed for the course.

The location was amazing, we felt completely secluded from the busy streets with a small temple just next door, yet close enough to meet all our needs I ubud.

The food was beyond my expectations, it got to be abit of the same but the end but it was always fresh and plentiful and for that I am grateful.

"Shaky at the start....ended much better. "

Well to begin with the city of Bali is truly special. The people there are very warm and always smiling. In regards to the YTT, I would have to say that the instructors made it all worth while. Their deep knowledge and great energy helped me to continue day by day in such a strict but nevertheless rewarding schedule. Special thanks to Guru Pradeep Ji, he has a really clear and in-depth way of explaining postures and alignment. His knowledge and expertise, along with the other teachers' information and energy input, made the course completely worth it's value. The delicious vegetarian meals were also one of the best parts. I'd also have to say that as a group experience, with people that you just met, it's extremely heart filling. The moments and experiences shared along the short but intense course with all the amazing people there are never forgotten and really priceless.

"Unforgettable experience, great teaching staff!"

We just finished 200hour TT with Bali Yoga school associated with Himalayan Yoga Association in Rishkesh India. We were searching for yoga school that could pass on authentic knowledge of yoga. The teaching staff managed to do an incredible job of doing that throughout the course.

We started our days with Shatkarama (cleansing process) every day followed by Ashtanga yoga led by Pradeep ji who is a fantastic teacher with an in-depth knowledge of yoga anatomy and alignment. His knowledge in yoga science was clearly evident with the instructions we got throughout our time at the school. All four weeks were well structured as we learned 3 new asanas every day and gradually progressed through the Primary series of Ashtanga Yoga.

Meditation and philosophy was the favourite part of the day as we got the opportunity to learn from such a humble human being Johsan ji who taught some in-depth topics with some lightheartedness so that all of us could easily understand.

Vinyasa flow with Cinthia was great, she gave us valuable information on sequencing, teaching cues and most importantly encouraging everyone to teach which made the practical assessment component of the Training a lot more enjoyable.

Our rooms had hot water air conditioning, communal pool and an area to study at night. The food was supplied by a caterer organised by the yoga school overall it was great especially breakfast, all meals were Vegetarian and gluten-free.

Overall it's a great school! Minal and Hesh

"Best experience ever"

The most positive thing about this yoga school are absolutely the teachers: lovely persons full of energy, passion and dedication. They know how to motivate the students, they have a lot of knowledges and they love to share and spend time with the new yogis, are always smiling and available for any kind of help. They really inspired me and gave me the strenght to go on on this path and stay focused! Everyone gave me a piece of his/her soul, I have so many beautiful memories of the time spent together with other students and all the teachers. I'm grateful to have found a new beautiful family. Thank you teachers, you are simply great!!!

"Bali Yoga Gem"

I am actually English, not from the States 🤔 The adaptability of the teachers to our requests for altered schedules to suit our needs was impressive. Our Sunday sightseeing trips organised by Dewa were great. He also tried so hard to make our stay memorable in so many ways. Their philosophy was, they wanted us to have an amazing stay. Also Cynthia needs a mention, she was our Ashtanga flow teacher. She was awesome. Incredibly knowledgeable, approachable and so much fun. 😁
