Goa Yogashala

I really loved the experience from start to finish. The schedule was full and quite intense, but it helped us learn and improve quickly, which was incredibly rewarding to see in such a short time. The classes were well structured and the program felt balanced throughout. It could be tiring at times, but absolutely worth it.

I especially appreciated the teachers, the food, being so close to the sea, and the wonderful group I shared this journey with, I made some truly special friends. Thank you!

I had the feeling I wanted to do a second YTT. Last year the 200H in Marbella, this year I wanted to go to the roots of Yoga: India.

I was doubting between (holy) Rishikesh and (beautiful beachie) Goa. First time in India, so Goa felt like the best option. 5 yoga schools remained. The nature of South Goa appealed to me. The fact that Goa Yoga Shala offered multi-style yoga, all reviews were positive and the program appealed to me, made choosing easy. It is of course always exciting whether this would be the right choice. It was!! Praveen is an absolute excellent teacher. My private room with air conditioning and hot shower was very comfortable. Sonu the hotel manager took care of every need.

Indeed a beautifully varied program with Hatha, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Yin, philosophy, Ayurveda, singing mantras, Indian culture and extra surprises. Everything and everything was there. Due to the nice energy of the teachers, the group atmosphere was so so nice. I've been back in the Netherlands for a week and

I’m on cloud nine ever since. Just like my students who see a big difference in my yoga classes (which they were actually very satisfied with). This was particularly in-depth for both beginners and teachers.

Thanks thanks, thanks lovely people!

(And beware: could be live-changing if you’ll book this YTT. If you have time, please book the 200H. I regreted a bit that I booked the 100H, but it was amazing nevertheless. I’ll be back next year for the last 2 weeks)

Namaste!

The care and attention to detail by Praveen who set up the Goa Yogashala is amazing! The course is rigorous and thorough really prepares you to be a yoga teacher. We were teaching each other in front of the class by day 2! I have learnt a lot of Sanskrit terms and the philosophy of yoga which is a huge strength going forward to teach this 5000 year old tradition in the west.

The food is amazing ! Always fresh and delicious!

The location just across the road from the beach is ideal for our regular lunchtime swim! The setting of the yoga shala is really peaceful with views of the jungle as we start our practice.

The teachers are excellent and always willing to answer any questions.

Also opportunity to attend events at the weekend like cacao ceremony/ dolphin watching/ breathwork/ kirtan.

Agonda is such a beautiful chilled part of Goa. I would definitely recommend it to anyone!

It’s also incredible value for money

I feel so lucky to have found this place.

I have learnt so much about yoga and about myself 🙏🏻❤️

Good group, learning outside

The course is very complete, focused on all aspects of yoga. Excellent organization, teachers and staff very professional and friendly. You have your classes in the nature, surrounded by lush green, birds and monkeys. Beach is 2 minutes walking distance, perfect for a quick dip in the sea between the classes. Accomodation also very nice and clean.

Excellent school with amazing teachers who are fountains of knowledge & are really committed & dedicated to their students & their progress. They really took the time to engage every student & help us to reach our goals. The food & Accommodation were also excellent

The place is incredible, Agonda is a really nice spot to relax and connect with the nature ( sea and jungle). The place is really safe and clean. The teachers ( Santosh, Praveen and docteur Grishna ) are really qualified. The food was perfect. Praveen is alway trying to make his best to please everyone. All those details mad the journey perfect ! I wish i could stay there forever...

The location is fantastic. In both shallas there is either a nice view of the ocean or a nice view of the rain forrest. The shallas are clean and well equipped. The classes are well organized, teachers are great, adapt to the group, responsive to needs, demanding but interested in your development not some external norms. Food is great. They cook satvig foord, always fresh, three times a day, not boring and for everybody there is something to look at. always rice, two curries and a dhal, some salad... it gives you the energy to do the classes from 6.30-19h and never lays heavy in your stomach. Other activites (excursion to spice farm, cooking class) are great. Some nice extra activities: rock or beach meditation. Praveen is the heart and soul of the course. He is an amazing teacher serious about yoga with a smile....
