Traditional Yoga Teacher Training & Ashram Living
Discover the authentic path of Sivananda Yoga. Our ashram in the Amboli hills provides a space for deep practice, teacher training, and true self-knowledge, far removed from the distractions of city life.
We begin our days at the ashram greeting the sun. This morning ritual of quiet contemplation connects us to the rhythm of nature and sets a peaceful tone for the Sadhana ahead.
Personal guidance is the cornerstone of my teaching. Here, I assist a student in deepening their Vrischikasana (Scorpion Pose), ensuring safe alignment while helping them explore their physical and mental potential.
Yoga is more than physical postures. During our philosophy sessions, we delve into the timeless wisdom of Vedanta, exploring concepts like the states of consciousness to gain clarity and self-knowledge.
A moment from a traditional Puja ceremony. The warm glow of diyas and the intricate beauty of the rangoli create a sacred space for devotion and inner reflection, an integral part of Bhakti Yoga.
A joyful moment with students, resting together in nature. The bonds formed at the ashram create a global Sangha, a spiritual family that supports one another on this path.

About Featured
The images here capture our life in Amboli, but the real transformation happens in our daily schedule. We follow a strict, sattvic lifestyle that resets your system, combining daily asana practice with karma yoga and philosophy sessions. Whether you are joining us for intensive teacher training or a retreat, know that this is a disciplined path intended to clear the mind, not just strengthen the body.
Our approach to yoga is based on the five principles taught by Swami Vishnudevananda: proper exercise, proper breathing, proper relaxation, proper diet, and positive thinking. When you step into our ashram, you are not just attending a class; you are entering a space where these principles are lived daily.
The Amboli Ashram Experience
Life at our ashram in Maharashtra is intentionally simple. You wake up early for meditation, follow a regimented schedule of asana and pranayama, and engage in daily karma yoga to keep the community thriving. We serve sattvic vegetarian meals to ensure your body is fueled by pure energy, free from stimulants.
Teacher Training and Certification
We offer both Level 1 (200-hour) and Level 2 (300-hour) residential training programs. These courses are physically and mentally demanding. You will study anatomy, Vedanta philosophy, and Sanskrit, balanced by intense hatha yoga practice. Upon successful completion and examination, you receive RYS certification through Yoga Alliance USA, qualifying you to teach globally.
Why Choose This Path?
We do not focus on fancy poses or the commercial side of wellness. We focus on the inner journey. If you seek a deeper understanding of the self and are ready to commit to the discipline of a traditional lineage, you will find clarity here. We welcome everyone from beginners to advanced practitioners, provided you possess a sincere desire for knowledge.
