I really loved my 200h YTTC online. If you are wondering whether an online experience can be as powerful as the in-person one, you will want to give this one a shot, to be able to say "yes!" after the course is ended :) The approach of the teachers was one of a kind. I was challenged by their immense knowledge many times and got an opportunity to grow thanks to that. I really felt like I had left the comfort zone of asanas and dove deeper into the yogic philosophy. I felt encouraged and welcome to ask any questions, which were never left unanswered. The possibility of interacting with other students was something I had hoped for, and I am happy to say we evolved into a lovely group, meeting 6 days a week to practice and learn together. Finally, the amount of knowledge provided is vast, and I mean: vaaast. Not only are the live online classes a great opportunity to learn about hatha yoga and alignment, as well as yoga philosophy, but they are also supported with many more videos and assignments on a web platform. You can do those assignments at your own pace, and trust me when I say you will get to experience so many different aspects of yoga. When you sign up for the 200h YTTC, as I did, you get the experience of live classes, but you are also rewarded with a beautiful set of classes on yoga nidra, meditation, pranayama, mantras, bandhas and much more. Finally, we had multiple opportunities to participate in other events such as ceremonies, festivals and live meditations, thus being able to connect with even more beautiful souls around the world. A truly authentic and wonderful experience!

This online yoga teacher training course went far beyond my expectations. Through zoom we were able to keep a community like feeling with our classmates and teachers which was something I didn't expect, especially since the YTTC was done over the internet.
Which just goes to show, how much effort, dedication and passion the teachers and filming team behind the scenes have placed into making this online course an authentic and valuable experience for their students.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who is dedicated to learning more about yoga and those who are ready for a personal transformative journey. It was an inspiring, challenging and emotional learning experience, directed to help growth and bring you back to the roots.
Thank you once again to everyone involved, it was truly a great experience.

I highly recommend Samadhi Yoga Ashram for your Yoga Teacher Training. The course content is very rich and the teachers are extremely knowledgeable, teaching everything from a traditional aspect from the Vedas, Upanishads, the Sutras and the Tantra.
I attended the Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training, and between Guru Ji and Satchinanaand Ji's classes, was able to achieve many deep spiritual healings and personal experiences, it has been a very beautiful journey.
Yogi Vishnu is an inspiration, and very dedicated to his efforts to share the Himalayan traditions, sharing the knowledge of his masters Swami Rama and Swami Veda.
It has been a joy to learn Yoga Philosophy in such a way that you can bring all elements of Yoga into your daily life and practice, from the Yamas and Niyamas to the tools given to practice the remaining 8 limbs of Yoga (plus so much more).
I have wanted to become a Yoga Teacher for a very long time, but only recently had the time and capacity to do so, and although I have completed 500 hours of training, I still wish to learn more from the Guru, his lessons are insightful, thought provoking and in many ways, very beautiful. I know that I will continue to learn, and may even do more courses in the future.
I hope to visit Rishikesh in the future, and practice with Yogi Vishnu and all of the others at Samadhi Yoga Ashram, and send them all blessings. In addition, being able to connect with teachers and students from all around the world has been a real pleasure, and makes the whole course even more enjoyable.
If you are considering doing a YTT, then I would highly recommend any of Yogi Vishnus schools, you will recieve so much more than just a certificate, but a personal experience, a personal journey, a personal transformation.
I thank all at Samadhi Yoga Ashram for all of the effort that they put into making the course so wonderful.

I did my 200hr traditional kundalini yoga training with samadhi yoga ashram and highly recommend this training for anyone interested in kundalini yoga, yoga and want to diving deep into yoga philosophy. The course is very well structured, the teachers are amazing and very knowledgeable and the community is invaluable. The training is full of deep spiritual wisdom not found in western yoga trainings. Yogi Vishnuji is the most loving and compassionate soul who selflessly shares his love of yoga, deep spiritual wisdom and over delivers to his students in all his trainings. This training is authentic and life changing.

I chose back Samadhi Yoga School to complete the 500 YTT because I felt I could truly immerse myself in the true and authentic Himalayan yogi tradition. I experienced a wonderful journey of personal development and self discovery that is never going to stop.
My personal experience at the school has been completely fulfilling, and even though I was miles away from the teachers and colleagues the community created has made me feel part of the family.
I truly recommend studying with Vishnu ji to get a deeper understanding of the true traditions and the techniques that every yogi and yogini should get access to. The teachings come from real love and understanding of the philosophy of yoga.
Your life will change when attending a course with them.
Shanti, shanti, shanti

I did the 200 hr Yoga Teacher Training at the Samadhi Yoga Ashram and I really want to recommend them because it was a Unique experience for me. All the teachers and team was so careful and did a really great job. Guru Ji inspires me every time He talks to us, it is a real bless. Besides that, we become like a family on the course, all the share and love spread thru this days was really inspire! The content of the course was perfect and I’m a better yogi now, for sure. I’m leaving the course wanting to do a new one and already missing everyone! 🙏🏻

I have just completed my online 200 hr kundalini ttc. It has been an amazing experience from start to finish. Guruji and his teachers especially Ashu, Maynak, Guna, Dev and Deepak and everyone else else involved has worked tremendously hard. They are patient, kind and professional but also funny and real. It felt like a real community from around the world learning together. If I could give them 10 stars I would. I can’t wait to do my 300 hr and also visit when we can travel again. I will miss seeing everyone every day but I know we are all staying in touch to travel this journey together. If you are thinking about doing any yoga course to teach or just to deepen your knowledge I can not recommend them highly enough. What I love is that they are using our fees to help feed the orphans and elderly and look after each other. That says it all really.

I was looking for an online YTTC as close as possible to traditional authentic yoga, and I found the best. Samadhi Yoga Ashram in Rishikesh, the heart of the Yoga Capital, provides an holistic learning experience with a spiritual ambiance which the student experiences deeply, not only in online classes, but even in the prerecorded videos. The enthusiasm, the contagion but mostly the love with which Yogi Vishnu Ji Panigrahi teaches, inspires and motivates everyone, is beyond all expectations. Also excellent all the other teachers and the entire support team that made sure everything went well, always willing and available for any issue.
I attended the self paced Kundalini Yoga (which allows you to move at your own time without pressure). It includes Hatha, Pranayama, Yoga Therapy and Anatomy, Yoga Philosophy, Meditation, Kundalini Theory & Alignment classes and so much more. I am grateful for the knowledge, the experience and full support I received. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is interested.

I highly recommend Samadhi Yoga Ashram for those who wish to become yoga teachers. I have wanted to become a Kundalini teacher for some time, so when the opportunity presented itself, I jumped on it. It was much doable because I was able to do the self-paced Kundalini teacher training. It was great to connect with people from all over the world. The teachers I worked with are extremely wise, experienced, kind, and patient. They are the real deal! They live in India- it doesn't get much better than that! You will have a wonderful experience! They also provide videos to help supplement the training, so you can access them at your convenience. The teachers continue to include us in special events. They truly value what they teach and it shows. Please book a teacher training class with them!

I truly love my stay in Samadhi Yoga Ashram.
It was a life time transfomational experience for me and The best school of life, wisdom, love I have attended in my life.
I came for YTTC Kundalini Yoga training with 200 hours looking to find where my path was guiding me.
After I have completed one month of training, I knew my direction and have decided to stay and continue with YTTC 300 hours of Kundalini Yoga training.
The training itself is absolutely transformational and amazingly enriching with morning Sadhana with Guruji Vishnu, Kundalini kriyas,Hatha yoga,Mantras, etc..
The quality, the knowledge, the experience, the disposition and the care of all the teachers were exceptional.
The life wisdom, strength, the love of Guruji Vushnu were blessing.
We were leaded by having them as example of what is to be so wise and in the same time so humble, so loving, so simple and so strong.
You simply feel accepted, supported, empowered and loved the way you are.
The group I stay with were such a loving people, with the same vibes of kindness between us, positive mind, shared values.., just as true friends and family.
The food was great. There was cleanliness, variety, organization.
The staff in the dining area were gorgeous and accommodating, and the staff in the rest of the Ashram were gentle, understanding, meeting your request if there was any in the closest for you way.
We celebrated all together - teachers, students, and the rest of the people in the Ashram as family.
We spent time together in a spiritual practices and in festive celebrations.
Ashram is positioned in a central( with shops and restaurants area) ,but calm and queit area surrounded by Himalayas and Ghanga river.
The landscapes are stunning and you feel the power of the energy.
I am deeply grateful to the Universe,to Guruji Vishnu, to all my teachers and my friends there for been part of that journey together.
