This was my second time at D'vine Yoga Shala, and this time I completed my 200-hour Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training there. It was truly a beautiful and unforgettable experience. This time I also came with my partner and we are deeply grateful for the inspiration and the practical tools Swami Ji shared with us to help us to maintain a healthy relationship. From the inspiring philosophy classes and Kundalini Yoga with Swami Ji himself, to the wonderful anatomy classes with Dr. Lata, alignment classes with Nitesh, Hatha Yoga with Chandra, and the amazing Kundalini Yoga classes, often even with beautiful live music by Harshika, every part of the training was so authentic and meaningful. The food was always absolutely delicious, and the girls in the office are incredibly kind, and organized, and always there to help with anything you need. For me, D'vine Yoga Shala is a true safe space, a place where I can recharge, reconnect, and grow deeply in my practice and in myself. My heartfelt thanks go to the entire team, who truly give their all to support the students and make the whole stay so special and memorable. Thank you so much!

I have just completed a 500-hour YTT at D'vine Yoga. It truly is a magical and uplifting experience and I can highly recommend it. The course is intense - on a daily basis we have classes on yoga philosophy, pranayama, meditation, asanas, alignment, anatomy and yoga nidra. And we have group discussion time daily when we will also practice how to lead a class. This has provided a solid foundation to aspiring teachers. The quality of teaching is superb. All teachers are highly knowledgeable and encouraging, the class size is very manageable allowing them to provide individual attention to students. Swami Ji himself dedicates time to talk to individual students as well if they so request, and many of my fellow classmates have learned a lot from him. The office staff are very helpful and responsive, they always stand ready to support you to have the best experience in the ashram. Food is cooked freshly and very tasty. And the ashram itself is located on the less busy bank of Rishikesh near a forest - daily necessities are within walking distance, with a couple nice cafes, and you enjoy the tranquility and the natural environment around. The school has done its best to - and succeeded in providing a sattvic environment to students. It's not only a YTT, it's an immersive yoga experience!.

Wow - what can I say about this life changing experience? SO MUCH! I came for my 300-hour multi style YTT and after dropping into a Kundalini Class, I was able to change to 300hr Kundalini Yoga TTC. If find it very kind, that Swami Ji is offering this flexibility to try out all styles and classes and allows us to change within the first days. I can say, that ALL teachers are high class professionals. From Ashtanga, to Kundalini Hatha, to Anatomy all of the teachers really give their best and you can feel that they truly want you to succeed, to understand and to impact the world! Their kindness, patience, humor and creativity is a blessing. And then the greatest thing and the reason why I felt the calling to choose Dvine Yoga Ashram - the presence of Swami Ji! His dedication and presence is really bringing you closer to your essence. Every morning and every evening 1 hour of meditation that he offers so gracefully and kindly. The discipline and devotion you learn from this experience is truly changing your life and your perspective. I am beyond grateful for his teachings, his humor, his philosophy classes, his yoga classes and in general his whole being. He is so kindhearted, loving and a blessing. He took us even to a wedding for the first time in his life, he made excursions with us and he always shares from the heart. The food… wow!!! The food is amazing, everyday you get 3 full meals and we all loved it so much. The girls from the management are the cutest, always ready to support, to listen to your needs and to make you feel at home. They add an aliveness and joy to the ashram which makes everything smooth and pleasant. I would always choose this school again as it has given me so much. THANK YOU FROM MY HEART

I wrote a poem to thank Swami Ji:
Thank you for your loving guidance,
Sitting many hours with us in silence.
Sharing your wisdom with pure passion,
And making us crave one more session.
Chanting mantras, laughing & dancing together,
These moments we will always remember.
Knowing ourselves from the deep inside,
Trusting that the Sattvic path is always right.
Allowing us to be authentic and pure,
Understanding that self-realisation is the cure.
Thank you for letting me see so clearly,
Feeling love & gratitude for you so dearly.
Thank you for mirroring your blissful being,
May we always retun to the one that is seeing.
Mirroring each others beauty & light,
Remaining healthy, happy & joyful inside
. HARI OM

I want to express my sincere gratitude to all the team D'vine Yoga. It was a month rich in learning and experiences. I think I could not imagine better training. It was transforming. First the place, we arrive from the city and we go in the jungle to arrive in the Ashram. The view is incredible. Second; the team, Swami Ji shared more than knowledge. All the courses was inspiring and revitalising. Beena did worderful kundalini classes in the rooftop with the view of the mountain and the sound of nature. Himanshu teach us so many new options to adjust in the poses, and helped us to challenge ourselves. The anatomy class from Dr. Hemlata was amazing. And of course the staff (Priyanka and Pushpa) was very very very kind and soooo helpful. They did all the best to make our journey perfect! We can't forget one of the most important part : the cookers! They was cooking the most delicious dishes. And so various! Sometime we preferred to stay in the Ashram to eat than going outside! The Ashram is really safe, and you have place to meditate, to walk, to cry or to just be alone by yourself. We are far away from traffic or noises. We have a lot of littles visitors : monkeys, peacock, big grey hornbill, and if you are lucky : elephants.. Well it was a great time for me and I think for all the group. I hardly recommend this school, particularly if you want to build your Sadhana and want to deep into yoga philosophy. Just listen to your intuition and don't hesitate to go to d'vine!

It was a pleasure to study yoga at D'vine Yoga! My friend and I came here to do the YTT200 course. We loved the place so much that we didn't want to leave, so we extended our stay to complete the YTT500 and stayed for an additional month. My mental and physical health improved significantly. I loved all the lessons, meditation, and pranayama classes, as well as the amazing, knowledgeable teachers. I also really appreciated that we were in a small group, me and my friend even had a couple of private lessons, which was a nice bonus. And what I truly loved was the food—it was absolutely delicious! Everyone at the ashram is super friendly and eager to help with anything. The place is nice and clean, located near the jungle, offering a calm environment while also being conveniently close to shops—just a 10-minute walk away. Swami is a man with a huge, kind heart, always smiling and offering great life advice. I highly recommend this school and am even considering returning sometime in the future!
