The Sri Sri Yoga Experience

A life changing experience

“

The ashram itself is so beautiful that just being here naturally draws you into sadhana.The philosophy, meditation, pranayama, and asanas were taught in such a way that we could implement them in our lives. It has been a truly wonderful experience, and we’ve learned something valuable from everyone here. Grateful for this enriching journey.

I just completed my 200 hours TTC in Mysore Ashram. I had the best experience. It felt like going back to my roots, reviving myself. We had a great time, made wonderful friends, and learned a lot about yoga. Yoga is not just about flexibility but about going deeper within. This was bliss, and I would definitely recommend everyone to take up this course.

If you want to have authentic food, you search for the right hotels. Similarly, if you want to learn authentic yoga, you can come to Sri Sri School of Yoga. I have experienced that authenticity here, and I highly recommend others to come and flavor this authentic taste.

This 21-day experience is something I’ll carry for life. Yoga has been an important part of my journey, and this program opened my mind beyond asanas, pranayama, and meditation. We practiced Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, studied Patanjali Yoga Sutras, anatomy, and physiology—all essential to becoming a yoga teacher. The teachers here are highly knowledgeable, and I’m inspired to spread yoga in the future.

I’ve practiced yoga since childhood, but at Sri Sri School of Yoga I discovered yoga beyond asanas. They follow a holistic approach, teaching meditation and many aspects of yoga that transform your life completely. I met my true self here, made wonderful friends, and learned from highly experienced mentors. The atmosphere here is simply magical.

I came with the agenda of becoming a yoga teacher and learning more about yoga, but I’m taking home much more. These 21 days have been life-changing, with a calm environment and nurturing care. This has truly been a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

“

I was truly lucky to choose my 200-hour Yoga TTC at Kailash Ashram, Dharamshala—the perfect place for me. The asanas, breathing techniques, and yoga practices became not just a fitness routine but a way of life. Practicing amidst the majestic Dhauladhar mountains was breathtaking. The amazing food, luxurious rooms, and thoughtful care created the right environment to observe the mind and experience lasting happiness.
