What Our Students Say

200 Hour YTTC | India | 2019

Rishikesh, India

I started taking classes in 2019 and then decided to attend the YTT in India. I had never thought of teaching yoga myself, so I wasn’t sure why at first, but something in me told me I had to go. This teacher training completely enhanced my personal practice and the way I think. We spent our days in a Traditional Ashram, learning all aspects of yoga, with dedicated and experienced teachers. We also went on adventures up in the mountains, and hiked up to the tallest temples...

200 Hour YTTC | India | 2017

Rishikesh, India

I was fortunate enough to go to teacher training in Rishikesh. Amit has such a welcoming vibe and lives a very inspiring life and has inspired me with my own life, practice and as a yoga teacher. Words cannot really express how much my yoga teacher training has meant to me, but I’ll try to give you some details of what to expect. First, Rishikesh in November is absolutely beautiful. Once you arrive you’ll stay in an Ashram along the Ganges River...

200 Hour YTTC | India | 2018

Rishikesh, India

My teacher training experience at Sakshi Bhava Yoga was something absolutely extraordinary and forever life changing. It wasn’t about just getting the training but instead learning the core of Yoga and what it truly does for the mind body and soul. Anyone could complete the training and physically teach yoga but not everyone is able to fully embody the true meaning of Yoga and be able to bring it to people all around you...
