To whomsoever it may concern It has been a great privilege for me to undergo HATHA YTT 500hours course at Asana Andiyappan Yoga Center in Chennai during May 2018. The course was very structured in terms of both theory and practical sessions with a good focus on Human Anatomy, yoga history, Naturopathy, Siddha and Ayurveda basics, Asana basics and practical workouts. I also had the opportunity to enjoy special retreats like leaf bath, oil bath, mud bath and yoga kriyas to rejuvenate and replenish myself. My sincere thanks goes to Master Raja, Master EZhili, Master Prakash, Master Rajadurai, Master Anna Durai, Master Chamundi, Master Kavita, Master Dinesh, Master Gowri, Master Suhasini and many others who has helped me to understand the concept of HATHA yoga . My special thanks to Master Raja who has been the pillar of support for me and my colleagues whose constant motivation has helped us to groom ourselves as yoga teachers. He is a very sincere teacher and has a very pleasant approach to every student in the class. He possesses immense yoga knowledge and expertise whose guidance has helped me to understand and learn HATHA yoga art in a very short period of time. Last but not the least my heartfelt thanks goes to our AYYA DR.Asana Andiappan for being the light of wisdom and guiding me and my fellow students on how yoga need to be practiced and how yogi should showcase himself as an example for others in the community. My sincere prayers for him to lead a healthy, happy and a long life! Thank you all!

Thank you to the Andiappan team for an overall pleasant experience during my 100hr TTC. The staff we all greatly accommodating and friendly. The lecturers were professional and extremely well conversed in the specific areas of teaching.

My gratitude to our Guru Shri Aasana Andiappan sir and all the teachers who tirelessly taught us with all sincerity the details of Yoga and what they have learnt and techniques etc for the benefit of the students. I wish them all success in life. Vanakkam R.Kalyanakrishnan

The course proved to be extremely useful for me. I’m happy to have enrolled for the course and completed it this Dec 2018. There are few good aspects: • The practical sessions were very good • Both external and internal instructors were well prepared for the practical class • Therapy sessions especially with Prakash & Priyanka was very good.

DEAR ALL, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL THE MASTERS AND THE TEACHERS IN THIS GURUJI ASANA ANDIAPPAN CENTRE FPR THEIR DEDICATION, TOWARDS THEIR PROFESSIONS. I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT THE OVERALL OF YOGA. MASTER RAJA WAS AN EXCELLENT MASTER WHO HAVE DRIVE ME TOWARDS MY LEARINGS. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH MASTER RAJADURAI’S KNOWLEDGE AND THE WAY OF TEACHING. I AM VERY SATISFIED WITH THE TEACHINGS AND LOOKING FORWARD A WONDERFUL JOURNEY IN MY YOGA . THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING .

I have never met the teachers like Master Raja, Rajadurai and Prakash. I enjoy every moments of the lessons that they taught! They are extremely good at teaching practicals and also theory. I am surprised that how the masters approach for one asana, and how they explained the alignments of asana. The knowledge is very useful for either self practice or teaching. Moreover, I like the pranayama's part too. I learnt a lot and will definitely practice it every day. The school that I went before never focus on pranayama(though they did teach some of pranayama). Therefore, the experience is totally new for me. All in all, thanks everyone in the school. Thanks for your patience. Thanks for your instructions. All the teachers here are so experienced, skilful and knowledgable! I wish to meet you all again.

I’m very happy with the course content, I’ve learned so much from different teachers. I enjoyed so much the morning asana classes where I learn a lot and it was the first time in a long time, that I had time to focus completely on the training. Master Raja is one of the best teachers I ever had, he is very knowledgeable and you can see that he makes his classes for everyone one, having always an alternative for all the students. Mr Rajadurai is very knowledgeable also and I love his passion for teaching, his explanations and demonstrations are very clear and you can really focus in what you are doing. Mr Prakash, Ms Priyanka, Dr Gowri, Ms Ezhili, I can see they were very prepared at the moment to teach and the information they give us is very important and necessary for the training and for teaching yoga. Rooms are very comfortable. Namaste

A very good experience in learning. Wide amount of knowledge was shared in all the sessions. All the teachers and masters gave us an excellent learning experience. The teaching methodology of the teachers itself is a learning for us to instruct our clients.

The course was very informative making my knowledge of yoga more in depth. The masters who taught the course were very knowledgeable, friendly and patient. I learned much more about yoga than I would have imagined. At times, it would a bit overwhelming learning all the anatomy of human body but it made me realize how important it is to have that knowledge to teach students properly. My favorite part of the course was the Asana part taught by master Yogananth. He is just amazing! Looking at his postures itself is an inspiration. I wished it lasted longer in the end. I was sad it was over but I m looking forward to continuing my practice at Anahata. Thank you!

The course was intensive with a lot of knowledge sharing. I learnt a lot and it’s definitely given me more confidence to go out and teach. The instructors knew a lot in their field and took care to make sure that each and everyone of us understood their class. The only change in the course structure that I would have liked is if the Dosha class was in the beginning of the course and not end because the terms were used a lot in the rest of the classes and we didn’t have a full understanding. Overall it was a great experience and I look forward to coming back for an advanced course.

I have completed my 500 hours of Hatha Yoga Teacher Training Course with the guidance of experienced and professional yoga teachers at Asana Andiappan Collge of Yoga and Research Centre. I would like to thank each and every staff who shared their experience and knowledge in their respective fields. I would like to specially thank Raja Master for the special care taken by him to guide each and every student to learn their strength and weakness and learn in depth each asana and its variations. I also wish to thank Master Rajadurai, Master Annadhurai, Master Prakash and Ms. Charu for the special techniques and insights in this journey. I also specially thank Ms. Geetha for a wonderful introduction to the world of Yoga Philosophy. I also thank Ms. Ezhili, Ms. Gowri for their classes. We had immensely enjoyed the Naturopathy sessions. The course also introduced us to like -minded people from around the world and we had a very enjoyable learning and sharing of knowledge sessions in a very friendly atmosphere.

The TTC course was a great experience. Master Raja's class was very informative and fun as well. Learnt a lot from all the courses here. Have already referred this place to other people. Will come back again. Thanks

Extremely knowledgable teachers. Respectful environment. Great teaching. Highly recommended!

I truly enjoyed Prenatal YTT with Anahata Yoga. With all the generous and caring masters’ guidance, my classmates and I have learnt a lot throughout this 100 hours Prenatal YTT course. As a woman who is planning to have a baby and an enthusiastic yoga practitioner, I have understood a lot more about pregnancy which gives me great confidence in my yoga journey. Before commencing taking part in this course, I have a lot of misunderstanding about practicing yoga during pregnancy. After taking this YTT course, I have learned asanas, pranayama techniques and meditation techniques recommended for pregnancy. Knowing how to perform safely and avoid injury for pregnant yogis. All the variations and modifications of asanas, pranayama, and meditation for pregnant women are very useful. Thank you very much to all Masters’ guidance and patience. Namaste

The course equips students with the fundamental of pregnancy and how yoga can help pregnant women. I hope the course could include more about how to sequence a prenatal yoga class and provide more teaching practice.
