“Joining Gyan Yog Breath for my first Yoga Teacher Training in India was absolutely mesmerizing. I am a very introverted person, but I feel like sharing my wonderful experience. Taking up the 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training has been a dream of mine for the last 2 years. Especially the Emotional Blockage Treatment, Ayurveda, and positive reviews drew me to this place. Gyan Yog Breath consists of a team of 10 yogis, PhDs, and swami Ji who 24/7 aim to guide you, support you and lift you up! The asana classes are challenging, but rewarding. I felt my body become more light, flexible and strong within the first week already. Postures that seemed to be impossible for me, are now easier because my body allows it and I understand the anatomy, alignment, and benefit behind it. The whole course is structured very well. I learned so much in this short time. I loved the meditation, philosophy, and anatomy classes very much. Dr. Vipul Arya, Girish, and Manish are very knowledgeable, they are so calm and always knew the answer to my countless questions. I think I found many answers. During my Yoga Teacher Training, I made a lot of friendships that will last a long time. It’s amazing how you meet like-minded people in the same place and share this magical journey. I am feeling forever thankful for this teacher training and hope that I can inspire many yogis to join this school. It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or advanced in your practice, you will keep on learning and growing so much!”

“I am feeling so much love for this place? Coming to India with a very weak and nervous mind, I really didn’t know what to expect from this course. Previously, I had studied Business Administrations in Germany. I really wanted to experience some peace and connect with myself. I am not exaggerating when I say that my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training exceeded all expectations. I found exactly what I was looking for: self-acceptance, peace and strong friendships with people that I feel like I have been knowing for a very long time. I didn’t have to pretend to be someone else, I am just being myself now and joying it to the fullest. My mind changed from being always stressed, doubtful, and worried to more relaxed and settled. When I came home after the teacher training my family said that I look very different now, much more shining and happy. I guess everyone is looking for peace and happiness in their life, so if you want to make a change, you should visit this place and join the 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training! It’s for personal growth, healing and learning how to teach the art of yoga to others.”

“I highly recommend this school. It is easy to get drowned in the multitude of yoga school options in Rishikesh. After looking around for a month for a school I decided on this one. The caliber of teachers are excellent. The location is beautiful. The atmosphere created by Swami, teachers, and staff facilitates learning and self-growth. The ashram location is a great spot to be, very close to the beach. One of my fondest memories is sitting next to Ganga beach right next to the ashram on a full moon night with friends from Gyan Yog Breath. The food is also very good if you enjoy Indian food. If not, there are countless restaurant options, nearby. The education offered here is all encompassing, there are many schools in Rishikesh but this one is building a good reputation due to its hard work. Be open to all that is, accept and know that you are in good hands.”
