One thing I would like to say after completing my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training Course in Rishikesh from Gurukul Yogashala is that this was the most amazing life-changing experience of my life. Yoga always fascinated me but I never thought that I would like to learn in-depth all about yoga. I enrolled for the course just to see if Yoga is really my thing or not but my experience at Gurukul Yogashala blew me away. The learning here with experienced teachers has given me the opportunity to learn the traditional practices of yoga. The ambience of the ashram was so good I really enjoyed the peace inside. The excursions, complimentary sessions especially the sound healing and personal Ayurvedic consultancy session were amazing. I leant so much about myself. I had a great time. Will definitely suggest everyone who would want to learn about themselves and ;earnt he traditional practices of Yoga then Gurukul Yogashala is the best yoga school in Rishikesh to experience it.

I joined my 200 hour course here at Gurukul Yogashala in September. Although I have been practicing yoga for a quite long time and had a lot of flexibility also. But my postures and knowledge deepened here with their alignment and anatomy classes. As I got deeper understanding about the right alignment of each asana which helped me to go even more deeper and also in all the classes the teachers would provide specific instructions for people like me who had more flexibility so that it didn’t feel to me that I am doing a beginner classes. As for the Anatomy classes I got way deeper understanding about my body and anatomically my body will react after different asanas and pranayama.

Yoga has always been my strength. I have already completed 200 hour from someplace else but I am grateful that I got the opportunity to complete my 300 Hour teacher training course from Gurukul Yogashala as their teaching pattern is so precise and traditional that various concepts that were not cleared during my previous course was cleared in this. I would highly recommend anyone to take this course even if they don’t have the desire to become a yoga teacher, do this for yourself and you will find that how beautifully you transformed to your better self.

Great place

Hello, this review is a bit long but I want to put everything sincerely so that people who are looking to take a course to become yoga teachers can make a conscious and responsible decision. I hope this feedback is not hidden like all the others that never came out or will come out because they don't publish them. I booked my trip to Rishikesh at Gurukul in mid-June. The communication from the administration was excellent; there was never any problem. I requested a private room with air conditioning, which added $200 more to the cost. It seemed a bit expensive, but I accepted. When I arrived at the school, I found that the rooms with air conditioning were not within the school premises (which I was never informed about when I reserved my spot). They took me to two places which I did not like, first because I did not know the area and second because of the hygiene. When I returned to the school, they told me they could give me a cooler for an extra $100, which I accepted because I was exhausted from running around after three days of travel and just wanted to shower and sleep. When they showed me the room, it was disgusting, full of dust, the bathroom super dirty, and the sheets horrible too. I literally had to walk to the town to buy detergent, bleach, Lysol, and other things to clean the room myself. The sheets and pillows were filthy i had to buy new sheets and pillow cover myself. I let it go because I didn't want conflicts and aimed to clean the room myself during my stay. we spend 4 days without electricity and the school generator give out (which is not the school management fault) so i decided to return the cooler and after a couple of days they refund me the 100 dollars.
Food is decent, not the best i never ate inside the school premises because im a picky eater but is not what they advertised they don't have variety. They treat local students (students that comes from India) vs Western students totally different i can testify that is in discriminatory way and I have proof of that, they charged westerners 4 times more than local and when you complaint about it management just says they pay more taxes for foreigners.
Please please do your own research before going to a yoga school in Rishikesh this one doesn't have any negative reviews which now i understand why, they hide everything and silence the people that have a negative experience.

I complaint about cleanliness in the common areas because they had trashcans full and they told me that "im probably not used to the Indian culture" I will be posting the pictures here.

Good thing about school that I cant deny is the education, I had the opportunity to learn from exceptional teachers, and mentors they hired fine and knowledgable people to teach and I would be lying if I say other wise. So you can take classes if you want as a walk in but I highly recommend to stay elsewhere for sleep although in India Hygene in general is really questionable specially rural.

At the end of the 200 hours i decided to leave the premises to another hotel and they didn't even help with my luggage .

please please DYOR before leaving for a month and be very self conscious of what you will be getting yourself into and for how long.

I enrolled in 200Hr multistyle yoga teacher training course at Gurukul Yogashala.

We had classes from ashtanga - vinyasa , hatha yoga, philosophy classes , ayurveda diet session, shatkarma , pranayama and yoga nidra seesion, sound healing session. The property is very beautiful with full of mango trees in the garden area.

The food is very tasty and they offer wide variety of food in each. The location is very close to Ganges river , one can go for a dip everyday. The water is very cooling . There are multiple massage parlour and cafes near by.. I had a great time here and taking lots of memories with me

I will definitely be coming back for another course .

I came here to Gurukul Yogashala after just completing my graduation to see what I can do in yoga. I liked our Ashtanga classes a lot and our weekend trips as it not helped in exploring nearby areas but also were organized very well.

I have enrolled in 200 hour online yoga teacher training course. I knew that taking online classes was a risk but because of the busy schedule I couldn’t take leave from my job. But I would like to say thank you to all the teachers that during my entire course I have not felt disconnected even once during the course. During the classes the teachers have given the individual attention to us and I was able to get in depth understanding of all the concepts.

Being already a Yoga practitioner but was still able to learn from the teachers was a things that I was not expecting. It was truly amazing that how small things can really help us in finding the posture with the right alignment. It was so amazing how the experience of the teacher helped me in finding the right way to do the asana even when I myself is a practitioner and that is why I loved the best about the school. the teachers are really really good and have a lot of experience. Also the garden was very peaceful. we sat during the evenings. I am going to miss my time here. I will definitely will be coming again.
