I now understand asana practice is just a tip of the iceberg. The 200HRS Yoga Teacher Training Course provided me a full picture of yoga, from yoga history, anatomy and pranayama to kriyas, meditation and asana practice. I enjoyed every part of the course. The theory part is inspiring. It enriches my yoga knowledge and makes me become more serious about my yoga practice. As we all know, Yoga is far more than physical exercise; it is lifestyle, a mind and body practice. Thanks master Vishnu for all the teaching and sharing, he is such a passionate teacher. The asana part taught by master Yogananth was amazing. Each asana was clearly explained, from the warm up, steps, alignment, variations to counter poses. He has sharp eyes that he can tell your strength and limitation which you dont know. He is very knowledgeable. He can answer all my doubts I have come across in my practice. Last but not least, Thanks master Mahesh for all the encouragement and adjustments during my practice. You always surprised me by letting me know my ability is beyond my imagination. Learning will continue, although the course has come to the end. I am looking forward to seeing my personal growth on and out of the mat.

Before the Yoga Teacher Training Course, I had always treated yoga as a form of exercise. However through the course, I have gained a much better understanding of yoga. Thanks to Master Vishnu, I learned a lot about the history, origins and philosophy of yoga. Master Yogananth has taught us cleansing and breathing techniques as well as mudras, which were all new concepts to me. I, in particular, found the practical lesson of kriya useful. I am also glad to have learned different breathing techniques, which have great health benefits. This has reinforced my belief in yoga therapy. Through the Asana module, I have had the chance to learn different postures. Master Yogananths instructions and demonstrations were very detailed and clear. I have learned a lot and have greatly improved my techniques and skills. I feel very grateful for the help and the sharing of experience offered by all the Anahata yoga teachers throughout the course. I could definitely see their passions and dedications. It was truly an amazing experience. I will for sure continue my journey as a yoga practitioner and would love to be a member of the Andiappan Yoga Community.

It has been the best learning experience of yoga for me. Thanks to Yogananth, Raja and Vishnu for their enthusiasm and professional teaching. Although I practiced yoga for a number of years, it has always been in a group environment. There are lot of fine tuning in my asanas and pranayamas which I am glad I learnt and corrected them now instead of later. Quite a few of the postures I found difficult before now becomes much easier after the instructor gave us very detail description of how to do them, and giving me specific personal instructions. It is enjoyable studying the body anatomy section. The main reason I started yoga was because of a neck/spine problems. The anatomy portion makes me more fully understand different parts of the body and how yoga can help in each area more specifically. Besides, I also benefitted from better sleep and my digestive system work better after practising yoga. Yoga is truly a body-mind experience Overall I enjoyed the course very much and was very happy to have learnt yoga in such a relaxed yet professional environment with other fellow students who share similar believes and goals. I look forward to improve further my yoga practice and possibly pass on the knowledge to others in the future.

In this program, the Asana Module helped me better understand postures as Master Yogananth will go through all the different poses and breaking them down in detail. Apart from learning different postures, I had deeper understanding about anatomy. Anatomy and physiology are important components to learn as a yoga teacher. An understanding of the human body is crucial in proper alignment and in structuring a safe practice. I was also reminded by Master of how completely diverse every single body is and understand my body nature more. I can also learn more techniques to adjust another person in a yoga pose. To me, adjusting others is a challenging responsibility. I am happy that I had chance to practice teaching at the end of the program. I can put what I have learnt into practice by devising my own sequences. I also acknowledged that I had to consider various aspects both before and during teaching. I fully realized that I had a lot to learn and practice to be a good yoga teacher. Moreover, I had gained valuable knowledge in history and origin of yoga as these are important historical or philosophical information not to be confused or misinterpreted by mistake. I am delighted to know that I may have the opportunity to teach those who may not have access to yoga by registering as a volunteer at the Andiappan Yoga Community. Joining this Teacher Training program is one of the best decisions I ever made. I am thankful for Master Yogananth and Master Vishnu for their guidance throughout the program.

This yoga teacher training program has given me a holistic view of yoga and brought me to a whole new stage of yoga practice by introducing the less commonly known element within yoga such as, different yoga school of thoughts, mudra, bandha, pranayama and kriyas. After attending the course I realized that my previous focus of practice of yoga only limited to yogasana and hence it was only a mere exercise but not yoga, With the knowledge of yoga l am now able to design my own asana sequence and also brought the asana practice to the next level by incorporating other elements such as mantra and pranayama. Thanks Anahata for providing a teacher training course in such a professional manner, with all the teachers being very experienced and have been dedicating their whole life into voga. It was very beneficial having the chance to receive training from these masters, who were extremely knowledgeable, dedicated and patient.

In this 3-month teacher training course, I have gained a deeper understanding in Yoga from philosophy and theory to pranayama and asanas The most impressive thing about the course, I think, is learning the asanas from preparation to final pose very clear, detailed and useful explanation. In my opinion, asanas the kriyas class was also a good and unforgettable experience. Glad to have experienced and knowledgeable Master Yogananth and Master Vishnu as my teachers.

A 200-hour teacher training course can only scratch the surface of what Yoga has to offer. It brought like-minded people together to share a collective learning experience, which with no doubt developed appreciation for Yoga. For many of us, it was invaluable stimulation and inspiration for further learning and self-discovery.

I'm deeply grateful for this training experience. I appreciate the instructors—Master Yoginath, Master Vishnu, Master Anurag, Master Raja, and Master Keshav—who shared their knowledge and wisdom with patience and generosity. I am thankful for my fellow students who created a supportive learning community and practiced with me, as well as laughed with me. I am grateful for the tradition of yoga itself, which has provided me with tools for living with greater awareness and compassion. This training has transformed me in ways I’m still discovering. It has given me not just skills and knowledge, but also a deeper sense of purpose and a practice that excites me about continuing to be a student. I now understand that in yoga, the journey of learning never ends. Thank you!

From technicalities of doing an asana and application of Ayurveda I got to learn a lot during the course. The teachers were friendly and explained the concepts with patience and clarity. I have already recommended this course to my friends.

I really enjoyed the course and found it to be a fun and creative experience, particularly in the context of kids' yoga classes. The teachers were absolutely amazing and incredibly helpful throughout the journey. I appreciated the course structure, which facilitated effective learning. The instructors stood out for their support and knowledge. They were always ready to assist with any questions or challenges we faced, and their passion for teaching truly shone through, making a significant impact on my learning journey. I am grateful for this positive experience and sincerely hope to receive my assessment feedback soon. Thank you to everyone involved in making this course such a rewarding journey!

I thoroughly enjoyed the Kids Yoga YTT! This subject provided valuable knowledge, and it has been both fun and inspiring to learn yoga with children. The Masters were truly motivating, and I love their passion for teaching. In addition to understanding the technical and anatomical aspects of kids' yoga, I’ve learned to let go of my expectations, be present, and focus on what’s best for the kids while going with the flow. It’s been an enriching experience!

The overall course was beyond expectations - I especially enjoyed learning the anatomy module and practiced teaching with the other classmates. The masters were exceptional and I was able to make lifelong yogi friendships.

The 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Anahata Yoga was a great learning experience. The course covered yoga history, anatomy, pranayama, asana, and teaching techniques in a clear and practical way. The teachers were very supportive and inspiring. I improved my understanding of body alignment, breathing, and teaching skills. This course deepened my yoga practice and gave me confidence to share yoga with others.

The first week was a humbling deconstruction of everything I thought I knew. My confident was taken apart muscle by muscle. My understanding of yoga was gently expanded on the very first day.I felt my ego starting to crack, and it was equal parts terrifying and exhilarating. The middle of the training was the intense, transformative core. The physical asana labs were like a university course on the human body. I learned the difference between saying "lift your knee" and "engage your quadriceps to lift the kneecap, creating stability in the joint." I discovered muscles I never knew I had. The practice teaching sessions were where the real magic—and the real fear—happened. My voice sounded foreign at first, reciting cues I'd memorized. I fumbled over left and right. But in one session, while guiding a partner into a simple twist, I saw them release a tension they'd been holding. Their shoulders dropped, their breath deepened, and a look of peace crossed their face. In that moment, it clicked. This wasn't about performance; it was about holding space. It was about service. By the final week, something had shifted. The sequencing that once felt like a complex math equation began to feel like an intuitive dance. My cueing found its own voice—it became less robotic and more my own. The philosophy wasn't just theory anymore; I was starting to feel it in my bones. So, did my 200-hour YTT turn me into a perfect yogi? Far from it. It turned me into a more aware human. It gave me a map for the lifelong journey of self-discovery. It taught me that the pose is not the goal, and the teacher is not the authority, but a guide.

Taking this yoga course at Anahata Yoga has been such an eye-opening experience for me. I didn’t just learn about poses—I got to dive into the history of yoga and understand how it connects to health, especially when it comes to common injuries and medical conditions. One part that really stood out was the session on yoga kriya techniques. I had never tried any cleansing methods before, so that was totally new and fascinating. The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and supportive throughout. I genuinely feel like I’ve grown a lot from this course.
