EXCELLENT Based on 210 reviews Posted on Yana TretiakovaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was a pleasure having this experience in India Yoga School ???????? I fell in love with practices, mindful yoga theory classes, thoughtful teachers and good accommodation and food. Will recommend it to all my friends who plan to stay in Goa for the yoga and healthy trips ????Posted on Princy AwasthiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My journey with India Yoga School in Goa (Mandrem) has been nothing short of life changing. I’ve been practicing here for almost a year now, and every single day on the mat has deepened my understanding of yoga—not just as a physical practice, but as a way of living. What truly makes this place special are the teachers. Achita and Shivansh are not just incredibly knowledgeable, but also deeply grounded, warm, and genuinely present with every student. Their guidance goes beyond instruction they create a safe and nurturing space where you feel seen, supported, and encouraged to grow at your own pace. I initially came here to explore yoga more deeply, but the experience has been far richer than I ever imagined. The Hatha classes, especially with mantra chanting, bring such a beautiful balance of strength, stillness, and devotion. There’s something incredibly powerful about beginning or ending practice with sound it shifts your entire inner state. The aerial yoga sessions have also been an absolute joy. They bring playfulness into the practice while still building strength, awareness, and trust in your body. It’s rare to find a place that balances discipline and lightness so effortlessly. For anyone considering yoga teacher training, I wholeheartedly recommend their 200 hours teacher training as well as their Aerial TTC. The depth of knowledge, the authenticity of teaching, and the environment they cultivate make it a truly enriching experience whether you want to teach or simply deepen your personal practice. Being a student here has been a journey of self-discovery, discipline, and inner connection. This school is not just about learning postures it’s about understanding yoga in its true essence. Grateful to be part of this space in Goa. ????Posted on Christina BollTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly experienced Teacher.

I have enjoyed how he weaves mantra into class, and his energy in holding space that makes class both effective and enjoyable. The reminder to be present and the Inclusion of ancient teachings and Sanskrit throughout class is really wonderful. Thank you ????Posted on Lina LahlouTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After trying different class in Mandrem this one was definitely the best ! I loved the singing in between the asanas, the view of the shala and the smile of the teacher ! Thank you so muchPosted on David InnesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Did the aerial yoga class. It was really good. There was also meditation and chanting afterwards which we joined in. Being Holi they also invited us to join them to celebrate Holi. Really friendly and lovely people and can definitely recommend it.Posted on Eva Leifland roseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was here for a 4 day yoga retreat with my friend, and we both loved it and wished we could stay longer.! The teaching is very professional, yet delivered in a relaxed and easy going manner. The bed is one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in in India, and the food was delicious.! I can not really fault the retreat and the structure.. There was plenty of free time to do your own thing, or just chill by the pool or beach and plenty of amazing yoga in the morning and evening.. we are leaving very content, and definitely would love to return ???? Thank you!! Eva and SimonPosted on rashid m yTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The classes in Aerial Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga, Aqua Yoga, and Meditation are well-structured and suitable for all levels. The instructors are highly knowledgeable, patient, and deeply focused on correct alignment, breathing, and mindfulness.Posted on Pooja BurdeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed a 1-week Yoga Teacher Training at India Yoga School in Goa, and it was truly a transformative experience. The training was intensive and ran throughout the day, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the learning process. In just one week, I was introduced to Aerial Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Ashtanga Vinyasa, Pranayama, and Meditation - with both theory and practical sessions covered in depth. The teachers were knowledgeable, patient, and deeply rooted in authentic yogic principles. I appreciated how beautifully the course balanced physical practice with philosophy and breathwork. The hands-on guidance helped me build confidence not only in my personal practice but also in my teaching skills. Beyond the asanas, I gained deeper clarity about breath awareness, alignment, and the philosophy behind the practice. The learning environment was supportive and encouraging, making it easy to ask questions, explore, and grow. A special mention to Shivansh and Archita. Shivansh for his wonderful Yoga Philosophy and Hatha Yoga classes - energetic, heartfelt, and enriched with meaningful explanations of each topic, beautifully supported by principles of physics. Archita is incredibly experienced when it comes to asanas, she notices every detail and helps you improve with kindness, patience, and encouragement. And finally, the food was amazing - healthy, delicious, and always adaptable to individual needs, which made the entire experience even more nourishing. I am truly grateful for this journey and would highly recommend this school to anyone looking to deepen their yoga practice or teaching path. Thank you for such a beautiful learning experience :)
