Govindananda Saraswati

About

I guide advanced yoga students who have already done their Sivananda Yoga Teachers Training (200-hour YTTC) and are looking to go deeper into the real sadhana side of practice. My approach is straight from the teachings passed down by my Guru, Swami Vishnudevananda, so nothing fancy or modern - just traditional, tough, and honest.

What to Expect

• Two main paths: Hatha Yoga Sadhana Intensive (HYSI) and Advanced Hatha Yoga Course.
• HYSI: Up to 9 hours a day of serious Hatha Yoga and advanced pranayama course work, with time for yoga scriptures too. It's proper hard - not for everyone, but it will break down your limits.
• Advanced Course: 2 weeks of sharpening advanced asanas, learning classic kriyas, and digging into yoga philosophy.
• Both happen inside a yoga ashram immersion setup, so you'll be cut off from phones, emails, even tea or sugar. Simple sattvic food, no outside distractions - just full-on practice.
• The schedule is relentless - there are no breaks, just continuous practice.

Who This Is For

• You need strong discipline, good health, and real motivation for self-transformation.
• The ashram environment is strict, so be ready for digital detox and total seclusion.

If you’re feeling the itch to go all in, start prepping with daily practice and a clean lifestyle. This isn’t about showing off - it’s about breaking past what you think you know. If you’re ready, I’ll meet you there.
