200 Hours Yoga Teacher Training - Part 2 (Yoga Alliance) (Udemy.com)

The course was in depth with an incredible balance of anatomy, history, and spirituality. No part of what yoga truly is was missed, and that knowledge continues to deepen. I absolutely loved learning yin yoga ancient styles and yoga nidra alongside the more yang styles that are more popularized in the west. The historical discussion was detailed and thorough, and my own personal interest in Ayurveda was also deepened by Maria's mastery of Ayurveda and integration of this topic into yoga. There were many elements that touched on both emotions and physical and spiritual bodies making the training well-rounded, deeply thought through and it was clear the instructors knew the many and complex aspects of this beautiful artform of the body and soul via many lenses and a deep love for it

I recently completed the 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training with Ashram Om, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The program was exceptionally well-structured and went remarkably in-depth into all aspects of yoga, from posture alignment and anatomy to philosophy and traditional practices. I am a Bhakti student as well and this tied together very well with my Bhakti learning. Ashram Om provides a deeply supportive and authentic learning environment that truly exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a comprehensive, transformative, and heartfelt teacher training program, this is absolutely the one to take.

I believe this was a very valuable and professionally designed yoga teacher training course. The program is well organized, and the training materials are clear, comprehensive, and informative. I especially appreciated the extensive anatomy section. Not every training program dedicates so much time to this subject, and I consider it an extremely valuable area of knowledge for every yoga teacher. Thanks to this course, I significantly deepened my knowledge and gained new perspectives on many aspects of yoga teaching. I would gladly recommend it to anyone who wants to grow on the path of becoming a yoga teacher, including those who, like me, are already teaching yoga classes. For me, this was a unique course that stood out from other trainings I have had the opportunity to complete. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. I wish you continued success and all the best for the future. Warm regards, Joanna

I loved the course content and the different teachers. The resources were helpful. Feedback- Their microphone was consistently too low. Maybe I am hard of hearing, and I am surely not the only one. No matter what device I used to listen, over ear headphone, laptop phone ear bud or speaker, I often struggled hearing. I would much rather need to turn it down than not be able to turn it up and this caused a lot of frustration and my progress. Also, could not hear the questions of all people int he workshops and the teachers did not repeat the questions. I also would have loved to get the slides from the lessons as some images or writing was too hard to see.

The course was very thorough, conducted with great care and attention to the students' comfort. The contact with the team was excellent, and the teachers themselves are wonderful people who do what they love and have extensive knowledge of yoga. I highly recommend the Ashram Om course – it provides the foundational knowledge every beginner instructor needs. The teaching goes beyond asanas – in this course, you will also go into topics of Ayurveda, yoga traditions, astronomy, philosophy, and energy. The course exceeded my expectations. Best regards to the Ashram Om team.

Highly knowledgeable instructors that educate in a way you can learn, regardless of your learning style. There's readings, lectures and live demonstration so you get multiple ways of taking in the lessons. I've learned more about how to improve my own practice, but also how to properly pass on the information to others. Well rounded, you learn more than just various poses. Pay attention and put the work into it, and you will come away with an understanding of the history, the lifestyle, and the impact yoga practice can have on your body and mind. Cannot recommend this course highly enough.

The self-paced structure of the training and the ability to access the content anytime were among its greatest advantages. I especially appreciated that many of the classes were recorded with in-person students, which allowed me to observe how face-to-face teaching is conducted in a real setting. It truly made me feel as if I were there myself. The way the lessons were held so closely connected with nature felt like a beautiful reflection of the true spirit of yoga. It must be an incredible experience to attend these classes in person. If our paths ever cross, I would genuinely love to meet you in real life one day.

The content is significant. How do I get the resources for each session?

Have just completed number 1 of this course and have just started the second 100 hrs. Really getting so much out of it and abundant scope for further reading, investigation and personal development. I have already started implementing the things I have learned to my own practice and to my classes. I teach a lot of older adults with a range of physical needs and I want them all to experience their own personal yoga journey so having as much knowledge as possible is good for me. Teaching has always been the best way for me to learn. Such good lectures and invaluable information is given in this course. A must for teachers who cannot travel to do in-person tuition because of financial or personal circumstances. Highly recommend.

I deeply appreciate the time dedicated to the study of Yamas and Niyamas, as I clearly understand that these principles form the essential foundation for all subsequent aspects of yoga practice. The strong emphasis on the first two limbs of the Eightfold Path highlights their fundamental importance. The course also explores Yoga Ethics in considerable depth, integrating ethical principles with Yamas and Niyamas. This integration further deepens the understanding of the values and disciplines that a yogi must uphold in order to progress meaningfully on the yogic path. One particularly fascinating aspect of the course is its inclusion of Jyotish Astrology, a subject rarely taught in most yoga programs. This was truly refreshing and insightful. It opens a doorway to understanding how planetary influences shape one’s life journey, while also revealing Jyotish as a “science of light” that supports a yogi in discovering inner illumination and living in alignment with one’s destiny in a conscious and constructive way. The most challenging component of the program for me was the hip-opening practice. I sincerely hope that future editions of the course will include an expanded section on this topic, allowing for deeper practice and further embodiment. Registering for and participating in this course, and becoming part of an internationally recognized yoga community, is only the beginning of a much longer journey. Along that path, the guidance and support provided by Ashram Om truly serve as an excellent and solid foundation.
