Helpful ReviewThe school is just a short 5-minute walk from the town and the river Ganga. The teachers are really friendly and they have great knowledge. They are happy to share everything with you. The 9-day course, which was 95 hours long, was full of theory and practical lessons. The food was excellent too.
I highly recommend this course and the school. I will definitely come back to complete the 200-hour yoga teacher course. Thank you for the amazing experience!

September 1, 2021 at 12:00 amOur instructors need to improve their grasp of the English language, but that’s not a big issue because given the context, it’s understandable. They actually do a better job translating wisdom into English than I could from Hindi. I believe this will gradually improve over time. Plus, it’s worth sacrificing for because the wisdom is much closer to the source and often surpasses what’s available nationwide. The freedom and flexibility of being able to access whatever I want, whenever I want, is amazing. It prevents me from getting too burnt out and allows me to complete large portions at my own pace. This course takes an intuitive and holistic approach to yoga, making it worth every penny. Even a tiny bit of the abundant wisdom this course offers could change someone’s life.

May 27, 2021 at 12:00 amAt first, I wasn’t too excited about doing YTT online, but given the current Covid situation, I just wanted to give it a try while waiting for life to go back to normal. And I’m so glad I did! Everything from the beginning to the end was very well organized. The teachers have been amazing, especially Yogi Vishnu, who is so welcoming, helpful, and insightful, and Devesh, who is an excellent alignment teacher and makes classes so much fun. Even though we only met through messages and zoom meetings, I could feel so much positive energy, support, and love within the group of participants. I can’t thank this course enough for the knowledge I gained. I don’t think I would have learned as much if I had done the training in person anywhere else. This school goes beyond just teaching asanas and anatomy. They start with the foundation, which made me appreciate and admire Yoga philosophy even more. The materials provided would cost a fortune if I were to buy them as books, and even then, I’m not sure if they would be as good and beneficial. Thanks to this course, I now feel like I have a family in Rishikesh, and I can’t wait to visit India. Whether you’re a new yoga teacher or have been teaching for years, this course is a must-do. I’m already planning my 300-hour course with them. I can’t recommend this course enough.

April 26, 2021 at 12:00 amFor me, everything was perfect. I learned so much during these 3 weeks. I loved every minute. Guru Vishnu is incredibly kind and wise, he takes the time to explain the philosophy and lifestyle of Yoga (among other things) with patience, wisdom, and sometimes with humor. Yogi Devesh is one of the best yoga teachers I’ve had the chance to meet. He is caring, clear, and he helps his students improve their posture, practice, and knowledge with great mastery. The other classes are given in video format, but the content is detailed and really interesting (kudos for the anatomy and therapeutic yoga classes, they are fascinating). We also got to enjoy a “Yogic” dance class with Sujatha, and Guna was there throughout the entire trip to help us, accompany us, and reassure us. In short, it was truly a beautiful and wonderful journey I had with them, and I know it’s not over yet. Thank you 😉

All the teachers are outstanding and, at the same time, they are humble, funny, and kind.

April 26, 2021 at 12:00 amThe videos had a really low quality, especially the sounds, so I couldn’t enjoy watching them. I felt like the teachings relied too much on subjective experiences rather than facts, and that’s not something I’m used to coming from the west. The anatomy classes didn’t even touch upon anatomy, which was disappointing. While I appreciate the teacher’s views on various subjects, I believe they should adapt their teaching methods to cater to the background of their students.

March 26, 2021 at 12:00 amI can’t think of anything right now, but I really found this course valuable. The teachers, Guru Vishnu and the asana teacher Devesh, were friendly and knowledgeable. Guru Vishnu is a warm and loving man who has a deep passion and knowledge of yoga and spirituality. He truly walks the walk and has dedicated his life to his teachings. Devesh is approachable, funny, and competent, with the perfect balance of being gentle and pushing his students.
The online course was well-organized, well-presented, and easy to navigate. They always responded quickly to our questions in the WhatsApp group. Transforming my front room into a yoga studio every day was a great way to earn this globally recognized qualification, even though it’s not as ambitious as going to Rishikesh. Someday, I’d love to go there and personally thank them. I highly recommend this course because of the high-quality training, the warmth and professionalism of the teachers, and the valuable information they provide.

January 26, 2021 at 12:00 amI absolutely loved everything about the course. Devesh, who taught us Hatha, was hands down one of the best teachers I’ve ever had in my yoga practice. He not only taught us asanas but also shared the philosophy of life with us. Every time we attended his classes and lectures, we were completely blown away. And I can’t forget to mention how much I enjoyed the philosophy classes from guru-ji. He simply taught us that yoga is an art of living. This course is truly incredible because it teaches you the path of yoga as a lifestyle, rather than just a way to become a yoga teacher.

Helpful ReviewI just had to tell you how amazing this online yoga teacher training has been for me. I honestly didn’t know what to expect when I signed up, but boy am I glad I did! It has been a complete game-changer in my life. Originally, I was just looking to learn more about the asanas, but I ended up being so captivated by the philosophy, yoga Nidra, pranayama, mantras, and meditation. The philosophy classes with Guruji were absolutely mind-blowing. He presented the world and myself in such a fresh, eye-opening way. It was like a lightbulb went off inside me – everything just fell into place in my heart, mind, and soul. Plus, the teachers were fantastic at breaking down complex concepts into simple terms that anyone could understand. I can’t express enough how grateful I am for this experience. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This training has truly transformed my life, and I can’t wait to continue learning. I’m actually planning a trip to visit the ashram in India soon. If any of you are on the fence about taking this course, let me reassure you – just do it! You won’t regret it. I now have such a deep understanding of what authentic, traditional yoga is, and I couldn’t be more thankful. I’ll carry all this knowledge with me wherever I go. Thank you all so much! Namaste

November 27, 2020 at 12:00 amI really wished I could have been in India, but unfortunately, I don’t think I’ll have the chance to travel there for a long time, if ever. It was tough to attend the live classes because of the huge time difference. I wish there were more time zone options available. Both the students and the school had some difficulties getting the technology to work, but it seems like they’ve sorted it out now. This experience was absolutely mind-blowing and truly expanded my mind, heart, and soul. I’ve been practicing yoga for 20 years, but I had no idea about the true essence of yoga until this course. I had read books and attended workshops in the US, but I always thought the spiritual side was somewhat silly. Now, imagine waking up at 5 AM every morning and learning yogic philosophy from a genuine guru in a small group setting. It’s unbelievable. Yogi Vishnu showers us with love and is incredibly caring and considerate towards each one of us. Whenever I asked him questions, he would provide insightful, thought-provoking answers that were tailored specifically to me. I felt so cherished.
Moreover, Yogi Vishnu has a unique way of meditating where he seems to momentarily transcend consciousness and return with a peaceful smile. It made me desire what he has and inspired me to embark on a profound journey and fully commit myself to the yogic lifestyle and meditation.
The course material went far beyond the promised 200 hours. I would say there was more like 400 hours of readings, classes, live sessions, and tutorials. It was challenging to balance it all while living my normal life at home. However, the materials are incredibly valuable, and you have access to them even after the course is over. I would have loved a longer course to fully savor and deeply absorb the content.
In conclusion, I highly recommend taking this opportunity to study with the amazing yoga masters. It’s an experience you won’t want to miss.

Even though I had to cancel my trip to Rishikesh due to the pandemic, I was skeptical about doing the training online. But now, I am so happy that I did because the experience was amazing.
The daily live lessons and abundance of online videos provided so much knowledge that I don’t think I could have gained even in a month of in-person classes.
I had the privilege of learning the philosophy and yogic lifestyle from Guru Vishnu, the founder of Living Yoga School and four other Ashrams in Rishikesh. He is incredibly experienced, having started his spiritual path at a young age. He is a wise and humble soul with so much knowledge to share.
For Asana practice, Alignment, and Anatomy, I had the incredible teacher Ashu ji. He was always patient and willing to explain things multiple times until we fully understood.
Since this was an online training, I can’t personally rate the accommodation and facilities, but judging from other reviews, they seem to be more than satisfying.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn authentic traditional Yoga and embark on their own spiritual journey.

These individuals possess immense knowledge and truly put in their best effort to teach their students about their subjects. It was a privilege to spend time with them and learn from them.
The reading material provided is also extremely valuable. If I calculate the cost per hour just for the live classes, it was unbelievably worthwhile.
Considering that I couldn’t attend in-person training yet, this online course was a great option for me. I was initially skeptical, but it has proven to be worth investing in.
I also discovered the value of studying with an Indian school. They are involved in charity work, so it’s an added bonus to know that by supporting them, I indirectly contribute to their causes.

October 27, 2020 at 12:00 amWhat an amazing journey I’ve had during the 200 YTT online course! I was originally searching for a school in Rishikesh where I could train directly with local teachers, and as soon as I found this school, I had a strong intuition that it was the perfect fit for me. And I was right!
The love and support from our Gurus throughout this journey has been incredible. I’ve gained so much knowledge and I feel like this is just the beginning. The Gurus have shared their wisdom with honesty, humility, and authenticity, and I couldn’t be more grateful.
The online classes provided excellent material and the flexibility to complete the course at my own pace has been really valuable.
Namaste to Guruji, Devesh, and everyone at Living Yoga School!

October 27, 2020 at 12:00 amI really wish we could all meet up and I could give each and every one of you a big cuddle! But don’t worry, it’ll happen in due time, haha. Let me tell you, my experience with our 200 YTT online course has been absolutely incredible! I came across this site while I was looking for more information about YTT and thought I’d give it a shot, without any real expectations or prior experience. And let me tell you, it has blown me away. The connections I’ve made with people from all over the world, even in these strange times, have been like a breath of fresh air. I’ve learned more about yoga, life, and myself in the past month than most people probably ever do. The online modules and the option to work at our own pace have been a huge help. I think the best way to describe it is that our amazing Gurus, teachers, and peers have all come together to continue our journey of enlightenment. The knowledge and wisdom shared in this course truly set us up for every aspect of our lives and yoga practice. It’s hard to put into words, but you should all experience it for yourselves. :’) Thank you all so much, I am forever grateful. Namaste. <3

October 26, 2020 at 12:00 amYou start learning new things from minute one. The world of yoga is infinitely vast and even though you think you know or understand things, this course and especially these teachers have taught me a lot. Before taking the course, I used to practice yoga in a different way, but after these 200 hours, I see and understand yoga in a different way, that’s how I feel. I could listen to Yogi Vishnu’s classes for hours…it’s incredible and very enriching. The online Ashtanga classes are also very rewarding and I personally followed them day by day and my body transformed. In general, it has been an incredible experience that I recommend to every yogi, yogini : ) I will soon take another one of their courses. Thank you very much to the whole team. Nere

October 8, 2020 at 12:00 amI absolutely loved the 200-hour online yoga teacher training! It was a transformational course that taught me so much. Even though I’ve been practicing yoga and meditation for years, there were many new things I learned. Now, I have a much more holistic understanding of yoga, beyond just the physical aspect. It encompasses mental, spiritual, and lifestyle practices.
Every day, I can see myself making progress not only in my understanding but also in what I am capable of achieving. The teaching quality was top-notch, and the teachers and course organizers were incredibly patient with all our questions on Whatsapp. They always answered promptly!
The amount of material provided was fantastic. I know I’ll be watching the videos and reading the e-books for months to come. This experience has had such a positive impact on my overall lifestyle and wellbeing. I find myself less interested in pizza and more motivated to get up early and jump right onto my yoga mat!
I believe this experience will stay with me for the rest of my life, and I’m excited to share what I’ve learned as a teacher. I can’t wait to enroll in my next course with Living Yoga School someday. Even though there was no option to rate food and accommodation since this course was online, it still deserves an “Excellent” rating because it teaches you the importance of healthy eating and daily living. 🙂

October 7, 2020 at 12:00 amI haven’t found anything disappointing with this course at all. It has exceeded all my expectations. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to take the 200 hours YTT self-paced course from Rishikesh online. The course is incredibly well-organized, systematic, and scientific, covering every aspect of yoga. The teachers are so knowledgeable and motivating, and they’re available to help anytime during the course. The videos they provide are top quality. I’ve learned so much about subjects that I used to find difficult to understand and apply in my practice and daily life, like pranayama, meditation, mudras, bandhas, mantra… I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn more about yoga and deepen their understanding of its origins and purpose in human life.

September 30, 2020 at 12:00 amI loved and highly recommend this course. I made sure to attend as many live classes as possible so I could build a connection with the teachers and other students. The instructors patiently and informatively answered all the questions we had on the WhatsApp group they created for us. It was a genius idea that allowed us to share information with one another. Overall, it was a course worth every penny. Personally, I found the philosophy lectures especially enjoyable.

September 30, 2020 at 12:00 amSometimes, the live recordings don’t have great quality, so it can be difficult to understand them. I decided to take the Yoga teachers course online because of the whole corona madness, and I have to admit, I was skeptical at first. But that changed quickly when I realized how much I could actually learn through this online course. Unfortunately, because of work, I couldn’t join any of the live classes, so I’m doing the course at my own pace. Nevertheless, I must say that all the materials provided are enough to make me feel confident in teaching a yoga class. The videos are easy to follow and they provide a lot of valuable knowledge. I’m truly glad I made the decision to take this course and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who’s unsure about taking an online YTTC. Can’t wait to visit the school in person! Namaste.

September 26, 2020 at 12:00 amThere wasn’t much that went wrong. Some of our classes were affected by factors outside of the team’s control, like the weather and internet connection, but they handled it all well.
It would have been nice to receive a curriculum that outlined our progress and goals each week, but other than that, everything was amazing. I’m so glad I chose this course for my 200-hour multi-style yoga teacher training! The things I learned far exceeded my expectations. I would recommend this training to both beginners and advanced students. The gurus and the team behind the scenes did an excellent job creating a comprehensive course that goes beyond just the physical poses and what we learn in a typical studio. You’ll get so much more from this course than just the advertised 50 hours of live sessions and 200 hours in total. Honestly, I wouldn’t even call it a “200-hour yoga teacher training” – it’s a complete guide to living and leading a yogic life based on Himalayan traditions and ancient Vedic philosophy. The yoga philosophy classes were my favorite because they tied together all the wisdom and concepts from the other classes and videos. I’m incredibly grateful to all the wise and humble gurus who helped us find our own inner light. The 200 hours and 25 days went by so quickly, but the real training begins once the program ends.
I also want to express my deep gratitude to the team behind the scenes who took care of all our needs and concerns. Thank you for being patient and understanding! The way the school organized the online classes day by day is wonderful. Everyone’s dedication is truly exceptional.
I wish I could have been in India to fully immerse myself in all the wisdom. Hopefully, one day I’ll have the opportunity to train live at Living Yoga School in Rishikesh!

It’s incredible to have the opportunity to learn more than I ever imagined in just 25 days, with our teachers providing the proper attention and support. Guru JI delivers the most enriching teachings on yoga philosophy, which I really appreciate. The anatomy/pranayama class and the challenging yet rewarding Ashtanga class also provide us with valuable information. I couldn’t be happier with the decision I made to join this course and embark on a journey of self-discovery through yoga.

July 10, 2020 at 12:00 amI recently completed an online Yoga Teacher Training Course since I couldn’t travel at the time. While I can’t provide a review on accommodation, food, facilities, or location, I can only imagine they would offer a warm welcome.
Let me tell you, it was a truly amazing experience! Despite being intensive, I thoroughly enjoyed the learning process and it provided me with a beautiful introduction to the deep and unlimited ancient knowledge of yoga.
The classes in this online course were well structured and planned, thanks to Ashu Ji and Surendra Ji. Guru Vishnu Ji shared his wisdom on yoga philosophy, meditation, and yoga nidra. Around 85% of the classes were held on zoom, which made me feel connected to the teachers and my fellow students. There were also some pre-recorded videos for self-study. They made sure to answer all questions with care and deep insight. The teachers, administrative team, and film crew were absolutely amazing and dedicated.
They even provided reading material and footage of the classes for review during self-study time. The whole course was carefully thought out from beginning to end.

March 16, 2020 at 12:00 amVishnu, the school leader, announced that we plan to move to a new location in the future. The interior of our current main building is outdated, but thanks to the group, teachers, and staff, they have made it feel like a comforting home. Other than that, the food options were a bit repetitive. However, it did taste delicious, and surprisingly, I didn’t miss having meat at all as I thought I would.
I discovered that the food is actually cooked at another school and transported to ours. It’s a shame that we don’t prepare our own food here when we have a good kitchen available. Nonetheless, we did eat at restaurants sometimes, and luckily, there’s a wonderful coffee shop just a few meters away. With those outings and the food provided by the school, I was quite satisfied.
The teachers at this school are excellent and very knowledgeable. They allowed for conversations to naturally arise during discussions, which was appreciated. Manshu, the yoga anatomy and therapy teacher, wasn’t listed for me to review, but he was truly outstanding. His knowledge was extensive, and his teaching style was superb. He has inspired me to pursue a qualification in yoga therapy from home. I would like to express my gratitude to all the teachers.
I would also like to mention Manesha, who efficiently manages the day-to-day operations of the school. She is always kind, calm, and helpful. Thank you, Manesha. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of another person who works for the school. He kindly gave me a ride on his scooter twice to help me get cash and was also very helpful with everything. Thank you to him as well.
