Authentic yoga experience!

The quality of instruction at this program really stood out to me. The program was cohesive, and everything we learned we were able to apply in practical sessions. The teachers were extremely knowledgeable—not only of the course material, but also of everything you could possibly want to know relating to the field of yoga and yogic science.

Sudhanshu Ji led the yoga classes in a way that is practical for everybody, no matter their capabilities. His approach was based in safety and accessibility, and everyone left his classes feeling happy and accomplished.

Lata Ji is an incredible anatomy teacher, and explains everything in a way that is so comprehensible and understandable. I generally struggle in classroom settings, but in her class I was truly able to LEARN material that will be useful in my teaching practice.

Swami Sachidanand Ji’s capabilities are truly inspiring. His ability to manage the entire school while teaching 4+ classes/day, while staying available to hold space for all students 24/7 is astounding. His willingness to share his knowledge and wisdom is a special quality, and I am so lucky to have received lessons from him during the program.

Additionally, the food here is top quality. 3 sattvic meals/day are prepared fresh by a small kitchen team who is always smiling and always prepared to accommodate every student’s individual dietary needs.

I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to be taught by professionals such as the ones at D’Vine Yoga School

Deeply insightful YTTC

The YTTC was such a deeply insightful experience. The whole program is composed to let you grow as much as possible. Swami Sachidanand is enormous generous with sharing his wisdom, and then the combination of the 10 day (partial) silence really enables you to go deeper and get to know yourself better. Meditation, Pranayama, Yoga and Philosophy pave the path to deeper wisdom. Next to that, the staff and teachers are knowledgeable, extremely friendly and supportive. The food is delicious, fresh and healthy. I really like the non-dualistic vedantic approach in the course. Thanks you all!

Amazing, you won’t regret it!

The best thing about this course was the teachers, between our yoga teacher Sudhanshu, Swami and his meditation/pranayama and philosophy teachings, our anatomy teacher all gave top quality teaching, they’re amazing at what they do and really know their stuff! The whole experience was great, great value for money we had an excursion during the month of which was great. I learned so much from this YTT and feel a lot more confident to teach!

Karina Harwood

What I wish I knew before booking Kundalini YTT here

The food was nutritious and delicious and the kitchen staff were kind and offered to make things like chai tea fresh for you in the mornings. Thank you!

Adjustments to the schedule to fit in one or two meditations by the river Ganga

Embracing a new culture, having Sunday afternoons off our schedules to explore Rishikesh and make memories solo and/or with beautiful souls

Some of the content was very good particularly anatomy, thank you Dr Hemlata Ji and the kundalini classes were insightful with an Ayurvedic approach and had focus on women’s cycles too which was holistic and one of the best parts.

Being surrounded by nature and seeing monkeys in the environment was sweet although FYI generally many appeared scared as it was shared that the monkeys at the school can and have been aggressive

The office staff were very accommodating, helpful and lovely

The structure of the days was well organised with one day trip option organised by the school which was thoughtfully considered

Dinara Yakubets

I’ve never thought that I could get so brilliant knowledge!

The attitude and care from teachers , the knowledge,service, everything was amazing!!!!

I really appreciate that opportunity! I wanna back again ! Food very tasty, room amazing, classes was very interesting, teachers honestly love their job !♥️

300 hour advanced teacher training multi style

The teachers were very knowledgeable at yoga and anatomy and had degrees in yoga which meant that they really knew what they were talking about. However the yoga was not advanced and pretty basic for an advanced course and coming from 3 trainings ( 2x 200 hours + 100 hours ) I was disappointed to not be taught advanced arm balances and inversions I wanted to learn. I was told that I was stiff every day which did destroy my confidence. I have stiff hips and lower back, but my practice is very strong in other areas and I didn’t feel stretched in what I wanted to learn but just reminded that I could not do hip openers like lotus. I felt a bit left out during lessons and I would have liked to be given differentiated poses to try or perfect as I knew how to do handstands and pinch against the wall and crow but wanted to learn those more technical postures without the wall and without assistance. The teachers were very good but focussed on the other students who mainly had never done yoga before or just recently. I felt that I was on the wrong course as well because it was Ashtanga only in the morning for 4 weeks , series 1 only and Hatha in the afternoon although we did 2 lessons of restorative yoga. I would have enjoyed Viniyasa but we didn’t do any so perhaps I chose the wrong course for me and it’s my fault. I enjoyed the experience though because I was my first time in India and I made friends.

Top Experience!

I really enjoyed all the classes of the Course: Swami Sachidanand has been very professional and kind.

The classes were clear and full of good input and info.

Swami has been generous in replying to all my questions, quite a lot of questions :), and in giving me tips to explore and explanations in depth.

Very recommended!

Thanks to you Swami Ji and to Art Divine Yoga School :)

Namaste'

Once in a lifetime experience

In one of the first classes we were told that we didn’t chose this yoga school but it chose us.

First I didn’t get it. But with everything I learned and experienced during my stay, I must say. I got way more than what I was looking for. I learned so much more than how to guide a yoga class. So much about myself and life in general. It was an amazing experience that I will carry in my heart forever.

Begüm Kılıç

from Turkey, April 2025

I don't know where to start. It's an experience that I'm so happy and grateful for. I couldn't be happier in a country where I went for the first time with so many questions in my mind. I came for 500 hours of yoga teaching. They were very interested in every process even before I got there. The beautiful people in the office, Pushpa and Priyanka. They are interested in everything and are incredibly kind and loving. Swami's angels. The classes are incredibly intense and educational. All the teachers are very good in their fields and are already very involved with yoga. They listened to every question with understanding and answered it. Thank you very much. Swami Ji.There is so much that can be said about him, but it seems like it will never be enough. With his deep knowledge, perspective, teachings and everything, he directs you to look at life differently. A beautiful hand in the right place, at the right time. It helps you transform your energy. Thank goodness it exists. You will find more than you expect from the food, rooms, peace. I hope your paths cross with this beautiful school and Swami Ji. And you experience this too.

A nourishing and uplifting yoga / cultural experience

I have just completed a 500 hour YTT at D’vine Yoga. It truly is a magical and uplifting experience and I can highly recommend it. The course is intense - on a daily basis we have classes on yoga philosophy, pranayama, meditation, asanas, alignment, anatomy and yoga nidra. And we have group discussion time daily when we will also practice how to lead a class. This has provided a solid foundation to aspiring teachers.

The quality of teaching is superb. All teachers are highly knowledgeable and encouraging, the class size is very manageable allowing them to provide individual attention to students. Swami Ji himself dedicates time to talk to individual students as well if they so request, and many of my fellow classmates have learned a lot from him.

The office staff are very helpful and responsive, they always stand ready to support you to have the best experience in the ashram. Food is cooked freshly and very tasty. And the ashram itself is located on the less busy bank of the Ganga near a forest - daily necessities are within walking distance, with a couple nice cafes, and you enjoy the tranquility and the natural environment around. The school has done its best to - and succeeded in - providing a sattvic environment to students.

It’s not only a YTT, it’s an immersive yoga experience!

Sublimation

I want to express my sincere gratitude to all the team D'vine Yoga. It was a month rich in learning and experiences. I think I could not imagine better training. It was transforming. First the place, we arrive from the city and we go in the jungle to arrive in the Ashram. The view is incredible. Second; the team, Swami Ji shared more than knowledge. All the courses was inspiring and revitalising. Beena did worderful kundalini classes in the rooftop with the view of the mountain and the sound of nature. Himanshu teach us so many new options to adjust in the poses, and helped us to challenge ourselves. The anatomy class from Dr. Hemlata was amazing. And of course the staff (Priyanka and Pushpa) was very very very kind and helpful with us. They did all the best to make our journey perfect! We can't forget one of the most important part : the cookers! They was cooking the most delicious dishes. And so various! Sometime we preferred to stay in the Ashram to eat than going outside! The Ashram is really safe, and you have place to meditate, to walk, to cry or to juste be alone by yourself. We are far away from traffic or noises. We have a lot of littles visitors : monkeys, peacocks, big grey hornbill, and if you are lucky : elephant. Well it was a great time for me and I think for all the group. I hardly recommend this school, particularly if you want to build your Sadhana and want to go deep into yoga philosophy. So well, just feel your intuition and go to this school ! Namaste

Excellent 500 hour hatha and ashtanga course

I enjoyed my training very much! The teachers were very knowledgeable I am grateful for all of the knowledge they shared. They sincerely cared about us receiving a proper education. I especially enjoyed the food and location. Close to ganga and market but up in the hills a bit away from the noise.

Ivana Jakacic

Powerful experience

🔸 Location is great. Peaceful and next to the forest, but still 5mins walk from all the places you need.

🔸We were a small group of students which enabled us to feel like the valued members of the community. I felt like all the staff, teachers and Swami are available to support and give attention to each of us

🔸 Silence period was important. It was one of the reasons I chose D'vine. Nothing would be the same without it

🔸 Feeling like attention was not only to make us better teachers, but to make us better people of this world

🔸We were gently encouraged to go out of comfort zone and look within, journal and grow

🔸The food was very nutritious and tasty

🔸All teachers were very knowledgeable and kind

Much more than Asanas

I completed my 500-hour TTC at D'vine Yoga, an experience that has already begun to reshape my life in profound ways. Traveling alone to a new country and culture as a woman can be scary, but the staff made me feel safe and supported before and throughout my two-month stay. //

The ashram is surrounded by nature while still being conveniently close to the village, and you'll often see wild peacocks, toucans, woodpeckers, monkeys, and other wildlife. The food is delicious every day. // The teachers were deeply knowledgeable, sharing their expertise in asanas, alignment, and anatomy. Beyond that, Swami Ji showed us how to better understand and navigate our minds through the lens of yogic philosophy, a potential turning point for many. Every day, we practiced pranayama, meditation, and delved deep into ourselves. While this process can sometimes bring challenging emotions to the surface, Swami Ji was always there to help and guide us forward. // If you're looking for a place to simply learn how to teach asanas or enjoy a relaxing retreat, this might not be the right fit. But if you're ready to explore yoga in its many dimensions, acquire tools for life, and put them into practice, this is the right place for you. // My advice:

Respect others' personalities and cultural differences, be flexible and don’t expect the often superficial "niceness" found in the West. Stay curious and ask questions respectfully. Be humble. Give 100%. Live in the present moment. Respect your body.

Christian Collins

I’ll never forget this place!

I loved so many things here. The overall experience in general. Swami Ji has cultivated such a special place for people to delve more deeply into the principles and practices of yoga and all the elements of yoga, not just the asanas. It’s very thought provoking. I loved in particular aside from the asana practice the focus on pranayama and meditation. The various ones we did were all so powerful and an element I really liked. I loved Swami Ji and thinks this school is so special to have a swami , it really brings a whole new layer to the entire experience of training here for YTT. I loved all the teachers and miss them already. I made long lasting connections there, and am so grateful for the entire experience. The location was great too, away from hustle and bustle but all shopping areas cafes etc easily accessible. Accommodation and food too was fantastic and price really reasonable.

Surpassing all expectations

Reached some amazing highs with yoga, pranayama and meditations… was blown away above all expectations. Swami is the real deal, Staff is always attentive, and teachers are very good.

Alice Ferri

from United Kingdom, December 2024

A truly divine experience!

D'Vine Yoga is immersed in the green and a quieter area of Rishikesh, which makes it the perfect place for a teacher training. I completed my 200hrs YTT in November and struggle to find the words to describe the experience. It's been a fully immersive 3 weeks and I am beyond grateful for everything I've learnt and experienced. Swami Ji is really inspirational, his knowledge and humanity are incredible. The staff at the ashram is all super nice and make you feel at home since day 1. Would definitely return!

Delaite Kassaye

from Sri Lanka, November 2024

I am beyond Grateful

I had the most transformitive time here at the training. I couldn't have picked a better school to do my 3oo hour Kundalini Training. I was met with challenges that encouraged growth. I am impressed and humbled by all the knowledge the instructors had. I even found Anatomy enjoyable :).

I found Swami Sachidanand to be one of the most wonderful teachers of all. From his patience to his knowledge to his way of teaching. He actually spent time with us and put in effort in all the classes we had with him. I believe this is one of the only schools that has their Swamis be as present as him. No question was left unanswered and really.. I am so happy I chose this school.

At the end of the day, this is a traning so it has its challenges but worth every minute. We were also an amazing group!!! :)

To all the inspiring yogis and yoginis, this is your school. You will grow into you a little bit more. Have an amazing experience as I did. Until next time.

Michalis Martinos

from Greece, September 2024

I completed the 300h Multi Style YTTC in August 2024 and all I have to share from this experience are positive memories and impressions. First of all, the ashram is located in the outskirts of Rishikesh, surrounded by nature but in the same time 10min walk from the market. All the rooms are either single or double, clean and quiet, with a convenient private bathroom and a shared balcony which one can use for study. The food is always of the best quality (usually consisting of rice, dal, cooked veggies indian style, chapati, fresh fruit in the morning and herbal tea) offering energy but also keeping the body clean in the yogic sense. Secondly, as far as the training program is concerned, the schedule is intense but not exhausting, well organised to cover the necessary 300h of training during a 28 day period. Both the Ashtanga and Hatha Yoga teachers (Sudhanshu Ji and Himanshu Ji) as well as the anatomy teacher (Dr. Hemlata Ji) are very skilled, knowledgeable and willing to offer their knowledge consistently and tirelessly. Last but certainly not least, the presence, energy, knowledge, vibe of Swami Sachidanand Ji is the highlight of the course. Being present in the Ashram 24/7, he personally instructs the meditations and the philosophy classes and he is always available to answer to all possible questions and needs, worthly holding the role of the spiritual guide and mentor. This experience transformed me in a better version of myself and for this I sincerely thank him.

A life changing experience

Honestly the teacher training exceeded my expectations by far. I came here to deepen my knowledge about yoga, of course, and maybe improve my meditation - becoming more aware of breathing techniques etc. But what I found was a truly transformative approach to life instead. I found answers to questions I’ve asked myself my whole life, I found love, unity and connection. I think it’s so important to find time to explore that spiritual part of ourselves, we forget about it way too often in our busy lives. Would 100% recommend!

Best Decision I've Made!

I am so proud that I've started my Yoga Teacher training here at D'vine! You never truly know how it's going to work out when you book anything like this online but I knew on the first day here, I was in the right place. You feel like a disciple, a student, a seeker, being given knowledge, wisdom and information from a true master and sage! Thank you to Swami Ji, the teachers, staff and the students for creating a beautiful and loving space to learn Yoga and passing down this sacred knowledge from generation to generation.

I definitely urge anyone who is on the fence to come here. You won't be disappointed!

Namaste 🙏

200H YTTC in dvine yoga school

I really enjoyed the training. I learned a lot from the teachers and the material provided. I am very happy I went to dvine yoga school. The ashram is in nature, a short walk from local infrastructure, which was perfect as it was very quiet. The food was very tasty and nutritious. Maybe I will come back to do my 300H some day! :)

Der perfekte Ort für mich!

Ich habe im Dezember 23 meine 300 Std Yogalehrerausbildung gemacht.

Ich bin sooo glücklich darüber, diese Schule gefunden zu haben!!!

Für mich war die Kombination aus Körper, Geist und Seele perfekt.

Swami Jii ist ein außerordentlich toller Lehrer- Ich habe so viel gelernt in diesen 4 Wochen. Mein Körper wurde stärker, flexibler und ausbalancierter, meine mentale Präsenz und meine eigene Spiritualität erreichten ein neues Level.

Die Unterkunft ist sauber und einfach, das Essen super lecker und alle Menschen die dort arbeiten sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! DANKE!!!!

Namaste, my beloved D‘vine yoga school! It‘s such a pleasure to be at your place, and such a luck for those who are seeking for the spiritual knowledge and well-being. I had a wonderful experience. Wonderful teacher, Swami Ji, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, wisdom, love, and time with us. And thank you for creating space for us, you helped me a lot. The staff team is very friendly, lovely, and helpful! The food here is amazing, we were humming every time:) Nature around is very beautiful, and Rishikesh is a very special place. Here in D’vine Yoga School I got to know myself better, and met my true Self. And i am so grateful and happy I’ve chosen exactly this school.

Authentic place to learn and practice Yoga

I have deeply enjoyed my time at the yoga center. I feel it is a safe place to learn about and practice the different aspects of yoga. Well rounded and well guided. The main teacher, Swamiji, has a lot of experience and is very knowledgable. The other teachers were also good in their respective subjects. The staff is a very warm team and took good care of us. The location is a little away from the hustle and bustle, yet close to shops, restaurants and the Ganges. I am happy I spent my time here.

INCREÍBLE

La elección perfecta. Me encantó desde la llegada el trato y el cariño del personal y del Swami que se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodas después de un largo viaje. Nos ofrecieron inmediatamente comida y agua. La habitación estaba limpia y perfecta para descansar. En cuanto a los profesores me parecen de la más alta calidad por sus conocimientos y por el trato a los alumnos. Sólo tengo buenas palabras. Las clases de filosofía con el Swami son increíbles, el tiempo se pasa volando. Es una fuente de conocimientos inagotable en todas las materias. Las clases de yoga son increíbles, alto nivel, disciplina y constancia. Se toman muy en serio todo y eso es exactamente lo que estaba buscando. Las meditaciones son diarias, te ayudan a crear la constancia que necesitas para hacerlas en tu día a día. Está rodeada de pura naturaleza, árboles enormes llenos de ardillas y aves increíbles. Acabas echando de menos el sonido de los animales. Pura paz. La comida es riquísima y de calidad. Siempre agua fresca las 24 horas del día. Y también me encantó la limpieza de la escuela, de sus jardines y la seguridad. Sólo puedo dar gracias por escoger esta escuela para este maravilloso camino. Volvería a repetir sin dudarlo. Estaré siempre agradecida a todo el personal por hacer de esta experiencia algo tan bonito.

A magical experience

The staff was so nice and welcoming, specially Pushpa, that welcomed me on day 1 (I was a mess after the long and terrifying journey 😂)

The place is great, quiet compared to the other places, in the jungle while being close the city, (10mn) on the most « preserved » side of the ganga, power cuts happen several times a day (well it’s India), but they have their own generator so it is fixed rapidly.

The staff is great, the girls are absolute sweethearts, the cooks are so nice and their food is amaziiing, so tasty ! we have fresh fruits every morning, and we discovered so many special local dishes from the north and the south.

I’m gonna miss the food so bad 😂

The schedule is intense, every class is so interesting, the teachers are great, the Ashtanga teacher is excellent 🔥, Swami is so knowledgeable, he shares the greatest stories to really understand some tricky principles and remember them better. We could hear him speak for hours. The evening méditations were almost always new, and really special 🙏🏼 we did some kriyas, so the energetic dimension is really present and it is exactly what I was looking for.

I loved the silence period even though it was quite hard for me to respect it completely and it was an interesting process to go through, observing my resistances popping up. It was a real chance to go inward and integrate everything we learned during the day

The group was amazing, heart to heart connection

It was way more than a YTT, I am so grateful thank you

Beyond what I could imagine

I juts finished few days ago a 300TTC at D'Vine.

The experience was incredible in so many ways.

The teachers are amazing, I learned so much from all of them. They have a lot of knowledge and they love what they do, they always teach with a lot of enthusiasm and love.

Punctuality was excellent.

The Swami is a beautiful person, he teaches with passion, love and knowledge. I learned so much from him.

The school is very nice, the rooms are very comfortable, and when we needed anything the staff immediately responded it.

The yoga shala is very comfortable, beautiful,clean, fresh, with big windows with a beautiful jungle view.

The sound of the birds around there makes the yoga practices and meditations so magic. The sunsets from the roof terrace were really magic.

The food was delicious, a lot of variety and the two guys cooking I can tell they cook with a lot of love, they were always very sweet.

I felt safe, comfortable and supported.

I learned and I got way more than what I expected.

This experience is beyond my expectation.

I highly recommend 1.000%.

Probably the best school in Rishikesh.

Life transformation experience.

Beyond expectations

Hatha, Ashtanga classes with adjustments. Anatomy. Philosphy, meditations and pranayamas. Kryias. I really appreciate the profound knowledge we received on yoga!

Lidia Viktorova

from Bulgaria, September 2023

Life changing experience

This is my second time in Rishikesh, this year for the 300TTC. Choosing D’vine Yoga school this time was first, because the school is led by Swamii Jii, a true yogi and devoted teacher, who doesn’t take a short cut when teaching yoga philosophy, Hatha the therapeutic aspect of yoga, pranayam and meditation. He led the Hatha classes, and instructed us on alignment and teaching adjustment techniques, and so many more, including daily sat sang, kirtan, and even dancing. Swamii Jii is well spoken, with a lot of experience teaching all over India as well as Europe, the US, and other countries in Asia. Listening to his life stories as a yogi was truly inspirational. The rest of the teachers, Mrs. Lata Ji (anatomy) is very sweet, knowledgeable, and dedicated teacher. The ashtanga teacher was very hands on teaching instructions, advanced poses, he genuinely shared his knowledge with us for which I’m beyond grateful. And last but not least-the admin girls, who also led yoga Nidra, as well as Hatha classes are super kind, always going beyond their responsibilities to be in assistance. The food is Satvic yet various and delicious. The kitchen personnel is very accommodating, they cooked soups for me upon request as I had some difficulties with digestion.

Perfectly situated next to the jungle, serene location, with a view above the Ganga, between Lakshman Jula and Ramjula. Away from the hustle and bustle of Tapovan.

Transformational Experience!

Thank you so much for creating a beautiful and safe space to learn, grow and expand together. I previously did my training online so doing it in person was hands-down a beautiful decision. The people, the food, the staff, the teachers who brought me to unknown new heights and most of all the group that gathered felt like a soul family! Thank you!! It was intense at times, yet through discomfort comes new found growth! Swami is a beautiful person. Thank you!

Amazing experience !

The ashram is very nice, the yoga hall is very spacious. All the teachers were great. I've learnt so much during the philosophy classes, which I loved. The asana classes were challenging but very rewarding. I definitely feel ready to be a yoga teacher and cannot wait to start that journey ! :)

The content was very interesting and presented excellently. I really enjoyed this retreat. Please note this was an online retreat so location, lodging, food are not applicable for the review and could not be submitted without me choosing a rating. I imagine if this was done in person it woud have been excellent all around.

Carlota Pinheiro

from Spain, July 2022

Definently a good learning for 200HR

The staff (teachers, cookers, reception, cleaners…) are super helpful and always attentive to your needs- any kind of need (if you’re sick, if you have problems with the food, any any anything) they will help and provide for you. So I felt very safe, taken care of, very at peace. The place was wonderful in the middle of the nature, no noise or people around, but very close to the town. Swami also is very attentive and helpful. He knows a lot, and he’s always available to answer anything.

The two yoga teachers were super nice and young and know how to ajuste your body to do amazing things. It’s kinda like a family- everyone is there from 6am to 7pm Monday to Saturday.

Swami is always concerned and organizes Sunday trips or activities if the students wish to, which really makes you feel welcomed.

Enya Sommerfeld

from Germany, July 2022

Lifechanging journey!

I honestly loved everything in this training! In 24 days I gained so much knowledge, not only about Yoga but also about myself and my life. During my training the D’VINE Yoga School moved to a new ashram and this place made everything even better- so calm, surrounded by nature and such a great vibe. And here also the food improved!

I enjoyed every single lesson, every lecture and I even enjoyed studying because it felt like learning for my spiritual growth. The teachers are simply awesome, such nice and kind guys and they helped me whenever I had a question. Everyone in the staff of the school wanted me to feel comfortable and I could ask for everything. The biggest „thank you“ goes to Swami Ji for sharing his knowledge with me and guiding me on my path of yoga.

I highly recommend this place to everyone who does not only learn about yoga but also about life. I am super grateful for this opportunity and I will definitely come back for my 300 hours. Thanks for everything!

Stefanie Mieth

wonderful experience

Swami-Ji and all the teachers are dedicated, professional and helpful in any matter way. It was an incredible learning journey that taught me invaluable lessons. The feedback I received from them showed me what I needed to focus on to improve. And I didn't think such a correction would work so well online.

Yoga is a business like any other these days, still, it was important to me to find a school that focused on pranayama, meditation and philosophy... not just teaching what asanas are in right now, aimed for pretty pics. It was a wonderful experience and I can fully recommend this school!

Immersive & Transformative Yogic Journey

Learning to become a Yoga teacher with D’vine yoga was an incredible experience. With D’vine yoga you don’t just abstractly learn about asanas and yoga theory, you begin to walk the Yogic path, as you put into practice the very things you are studying. The whole team will push your body, mind and spirit at the same time you are intellectually learning the importance of this union in your philosophy classes. The same can be said for the need to endure hardships and challenges, but this is not just a school of intellectual knowledge nor is it a yoga retreat centre, this is an intense glimpse into the yogic lifestyle that comes with learning from many areas. If you are disciplined and willing to surrender to the entire experience and view all parts of it as your education, you will truly come through the other side stronger and wiser. When you leave here you are free to take with you what you choose, but in order to know what is available to take, you first have to accept, surrender and absorb. I recommend D’vine Yoga to anyone looking for a fully immersed yogic journey that will dig deep into the capabilities of your body, the buried reaches of your emotions and the expansion of your spirit. Written with gratitude and respect.

Unforgettable retreat!!!

I spent a month in Rishikesh ashram

I really enjoyed my stay.

Swami ji and his team are very attentive and available.

The ashram is well located, and it is beautiful on the edge of the ganga river.

On Sunday, we visited nice places,

I keep a very good memory of it, I made beautiful encounters.

Just what i needed

I loved the Yogahall with its amazing Ganges View. There is Ashtanga in the morning and Hartha Yoga in the afternoon. Both Teachers are really professionell in their practice and kind and compassionate in their heart. The feedback i received from them showed me exactly where i needed to focus to improve.

I also loved the theoretical classes with Swami Ji. He is a skilled teacher who can convey even complicated terms. He is always making sure that everyone understands and i hornestly never got bored thanks to his unique style of teaching.

Also i am very grateful to everyone from D'vine Yoga for making sure that i had what i needed from arrival till departure always with a humble and loving attitude.

I came for the right push, to get back on the Yoga track and this is exactly what i got.

Hallo, meine Erwartungen sind übertroffen

Einfach alles:

-die mentale Kraft , die physische und praktische Erfahrung dem Guru, sein großes Herz, seine Kompetenz in allen Richtungen. Er war mein Phylosoph, mein Doktor, mein Psycholog, mein Yogatrainer, mein Berater, mein Alles. Jeder Yogi hat ein Guru. Ich bin sicher, dass der Swami Satshidan ist mein Guru geworden. Er ist in mir reingegangen. Ich werde ihn immer in meinem Herzen tragen.

Und seine Yogalehrer: Daniel, Anush und Denis sind sehr gut, top fit. Hier muß ich auch seine Managerin und Manager, die Jungs an der Rezeption, das Bedienungspersonal erwähnen.

Alle in diesem Ashram sind so warmherzig, so behilflich. Wegen gewissen Probleme mit der LOT-Fluggeselschaft konnte meine weitere Reise nach Indien ohne die Hilfe von der Seite der D ivine Yoga niemals stattfinden.

Mit einem Dankeschön kann man die Dankbarkeit zu diesen wunderbaren Leute nicht ausdrucken.

Die professionelle Ausbildung von 300 Stunden Yoga Teacher Training bei D'ivine Yoga schließt meine 500 YTT in Indien. Ich bin jetzt stark, perfekt ausgebildet, stolz auf mich, meine Leistung hier. Ich fühle mich sicher und werde D'ivine Yoga verantwortlich vertreten.

Ich werde nie vergessen, was ich gefühlt und erlebt habe. Diese Erfahrung ist das, was ich nirgendwo anders bekommen könnte, außer beim Swamiji, mein GURU, mein Freund! Es gibt Leute, die nur einmal geboren werden, und das ist ER.

Vielen herzlichen Dank, GURUJI!!

A truly life changing experience

This was such a valuable experience. I can't believe how much I learned! D’vine yoga provide constant support and answer questions quickly. Swami ji would even go beyond and above to arrange online meeting to explain any questions. The live sessions are superb, especially the morning Ashtanga session!!! All in all, the content of the course is very well-organised, thoughtful, though-provoking, detailed and informative! A great way to learn more about all aspects of yoga, not just asanas! I truly enjoyed taking this course, and going at my own pace. Thank you for helping me to further my knowledge as I continue my yoga journey. I’d highly recommend this course to everyone. Wish D’vine Yoga all the best and keep training more amazing teachers!

Enlightening Experience as a total Yoga-Newbie

I thought I had practised some Yoga before - but after this retreat I know, that I had known hardly anything about Yoga. In the evening lectures I learned that there is so much more to it, so much knowledge about breathing, mindset that helps you for the actual Yoga Asanas in the morning, which I also enjoyed very much.

Swami is a fantastic teacher with a great energy, it was very easy to let go and put myself into his hands. Thank you for this great experience, I'm definitely a different person that I was before the retreat and I've gained a lot of knowledge that will help me to improve the connection with myself in the future.

If I have the chance, I will definitely to a YTT with Swami someday!

A fantastic experience

D’vine Yoga will be the best choice for you if you‘re willing to improve not only physically, but also mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Along with very well organized trainings you are going to receive traditional yogic knowledge and wisdom that will help you transform your body, mind, psyche and Life in general. All of the teachers and Trainers at D‘vine Yoga are incredibly friendly and care deeply about their students. Overall I‘m so happy that I found this school - when I first started my Yoga Teacher Training at D‘vine, I had a very basic idea of what yoga is, and this school showed and taught me so much about Yoga and myself, which helped me change my lifestyle completely and made me see how strong, capable, beautiful and intelligent my body is. So here you will get extremely interesting lectures that contain the most valuable, precious information, awesome effective trainings every day with different time options, breathwork and joy from learning all of it. I’ve never thought that an online course could be so well-done and feel so immersive. It was a fantastic experience for me and I‘m gonna stick with the D‘vine Yoga for my further Yogic journey.🙏🕉😌

The deep and enlightening experience I was looking for

I really loved the lectures with Swami Sachidanand and the team. I found the lectures particularly illuminating and comprehensive. I enjoy the approach from a traditional and scientific view as well as all of the philosophy that has been covered really well.

I enjoyed the variety of teachers for the live classes as well and the strength of the asana and emphasis on pranayama etc. It was very convenient that there were 3 time slots to choose from for the live classes to make it easy for everyone globally to chose a time that suited their time zone. The YTT manual is also very informative and in depth. I really appreciated how accommodating the whole team was and I felt supported in my training.

A retreat in Depth

I've practiced yoga for more than 5 years now. YTT has always been on my to do list to experience yoga fully in a deeper level.

Journey with Swami Ji was exactly what I was looking for. Through the learning process with Swami ji, I was continuously inspired and amazed by how yoga is teaching us to live with our greatest potential. It's a beautiful experience with countless enlightening moments for both my personal and professional development. I am tremendously grateful for it.

Wherever you are in your yoga journey, beginner, intermediate, advance, as long as you are ready to learn with an open heart, I am sure you are going to learn, gain, and let go through the journey.

Namaste.

Fantastic yoga journey!!

Everything is so wonderful. The theory, pranayama, meditation, anatomy, and the detail for every single asana, everything is so clear. Especially Ashtanga yoga! I’ve learn a lot of the basic part of it. If you are still confused what to choose for your yoga program, I recommend you pick up this one. I am also thinking of doing 300hr program within this year. Hope we can meet up again soon. And I wish someday I can really go to Rishikesh, the beautiful place to practice yoga with everyone. Thank you so much! Namaste🙏

Excellent - So much more than basic kriya asanas!

This excellent online course was the authentic, total package. It would be great whether you are a beginner or an experienced yoga practitioner. I hope you sign up, you're worth it! I was so grateful to receive these precious practices in my own living room (since I can't travel to Rishikesh during covid - excellent location. :) Even though India time is 13.5 hours ahead of my time and other students were all from different time zones, D'vine Yoga accommodated all of our time zones.

Swami Sachidanand was easy to understand, thorough, approachable and accommodating. In addition to excellent asana, pranayama, and discussion, the Sunday morning practice includes a special sacred transmission from Swami Sachidanand. I've been doing yoga a long time, and you don't get this in other kriya yoga classes. And I love that once you've paid for the initial course, you can attend the other Sunday morning sessions for free!

Even better, at the end of the 4 days, he gives you a powerful, easy-to-follow practice to continue on our own. Perfection.

Amazing Transformative Experience!

A highly intensive 4 day workshop, with an amazing teacher and wonderful learnings. Each day involved 2 sessions, a 90 min Yoga practice and a 90 min Pranayama/Lecture.

The organization and Swamiji went out of the day to organize the live sessions. Since I was in a different time zone than the rest of the group, Swami made sure to schedule a session convenient for me, and I had live sessions where I was the only student.

This is extraordinary, and goes to show how much they care for the student.

The yoga sessions were a mix of asana, meditation and each of the four days had a variant of the practice with a different emphasis.

The pranayama sessions taught us the breathwork, and the basics of Yoga Philosophy.

All of this culminates in the final day of practice, where Swamiji led us into an intense Kriya, which had a transformative experience.

In 4 days of practice, I noticed changes in my state of being and had a great experience.

The program is very affordable and the fact that it includes 12+ hours of live sessions is a huge value add. Additionally, we can repeat this workshop for any for life without having to pay for it again.

Highly Recommend the program.

The sessions were very enriching and went into the right amount of details, just perfect, also very flexible, Swami was really making his best to accommodate everyone's needs when it came to time. I would highly recommend this retreat, also great value for money compared to other retreats available. I chose it as felt it was the most authentic.

Wonderful

I am from Sydney Australia and really appreciated the opportunity to attend classes with a yoga master in Rishekesh. It was a very special experience for me. I really enjoyed learning about yoga philosophy and the different breathing techniques. Swami is an excellent teacher and many of the other in my class students had previously spent time learning from him in person at the yoga centre in Rishekesh. We all had time to ask questions and everyone was very supportive. Highly recommended

New Experience

After doing several on line Yoga sessions, I have realised there is so much more to experience and learn. I really enjoyed the after effects i got from the Kriya Yoga and appreciate the time given by the teacher and feel I have a little bit more understanding of the 8 limbs of Yoga.

I find Indian teachers are the BEST !
