After his return to India and practicing with wonderful teachers in Auroville, he has decided to do 200-hr TTC in Sivananda style of Hatha yoga. He has been teaching yoga classes in Auroville since then. Besides Sivananda style, Bala has been practicing Ashtanga and Vinyasa himself for a few years. He believes the discipline of both body and mind is the only way to live a yogic life.

"Amazing Experience with super enthusiastic teachers!"
I had an amazing experience with Bala Yoga School and Balas knowledge and passion for Yoga as well as other teachers who were part of the team. I really enjoyed getting to know various forms and styles of Yoga and deepen my interest and knowledge. Like Kriyas and detailed versions of Asanas.
Through the training I could explore my own daily practise and my growth, discover new questions and answers about myself and life and at the same time learned how to give this knowledge and practise to others.
I feel I could trust the teachers completely with their knowledge, their techniques and the teaching in general in the group and felt in good hands throughout the course. The teachers are expanding their own knowledge and practise all the time which is motivating me even more on the path of Yoga.
I feel now on my way of being a Yoga Teacher myself and bringing the beautiful wisdom of Yoga into the world wherever I am.
If you are looking for very enthusiastic and passionate teachers who really love what they do and share everything from their heart, I can really recommend this school!
I am very grateful and blessed for this amazing experience and everything I learned here!

"Not just a yoga TTC but a life changing experience"
First ,The TTC changed me as a person. The TTC happened in a time of constant changes and uncertainties of the virus . But once we were in the place every thing happened with such smooth flow . Starting from our accommodation to every meal was preplanned and executed with such ease. We were people of different background and we all felt that more such prograns shall be the norm in a TTC . Lead teacher Bala is a treasure trove of knowledge both cultural and yogic . He has in depth knowledge about the Asanas and various schools of yoga . He breaks down each asana so that you can first learn it and then taught how to teach our students . Entire concentration is on becoming a teacher with compassion .The TTC made us feel comfortable in our own self . We had many classes like Hatha , Viyasa ,Ashtanga,Yin, Kalaripayatu etc . This gave us a glimpse of various styles and we can choose where we want to concentrate . We had special classes for teaching kids ,pregnant women and senior citizens. We had our Anatony class from a physiotherapist so we had indepth knowledge how our body works . Philosophical terms were explained with lot of examples and Bala is great in it . We can see that all the faculty had travelled and lived in many parts of the world, so they can explain things from all perspective . I got friends for life and I learnt that you can change some ones life through yoga. Glad to see the passion in their teaching and I highly recommend this course
