"I came here to Arhanta ashram with an open mind and no idea what will come. It was four weeks full of intensive, hard, emotional, great, strengthening and fantastic work with the group, with the teachers and with myself. I have no regrets and I am still thankful and happy that I was allowed to learn from such good teachers in this wonderful area. Now I am looking forward to teach my yoga class. Thank you very much to the entire Arhanta team. I wish you all the best."

I have highest regards for Arhanta, they stand by their values. I am so glad I cam across their website. Every teacher has a great teaching style. Ram has very deep knowledge which he explains very efficiently with humor & tales. Omkar helped me to go deep with my yoga asanas and teaching skills. I learnt more with this course in one month than I learnt in the two years long teacher training I completed earlier. I highly recommend Arhanta!
