ālaya wellbeing by Himalaya Yoga Valley Reviews 

I’m really glad to have discovered Himalaya Yoga Valley online. They have a fantastic variety of live Yoga classes to choose from. There are also a library of recoded videos so you never miss out. The teachers are all very knowledgeable and instruct well and clear. It’s all very well organised professionally and friendly company.

The student in me was wanting to become a Yoga teacher but either the time wasn't right or the course wasn't right. Then lockdown came and I saw the course syllabus I knew it was for me. I liked the idea of the intenseness of the two weeks but also the flexibility of self study. Not only that but there was more than just the asana. Meditation, pranayama, philosophy, ayruveda and anatomy. What a variety of experiences of learning. The subjects all different did start to come together as one. It was as if someone had opened the curtains into my mind and the pieces of knowledge I knew before became clearer and the new information from the course started to build up into a picture of realisation for my mind, emotion, intellect and the physical. It felt like having a secret key to find the jewels of yoga. There were some doubts that I couldn't do it but what helped to keep me going were the comments from the teachers. The little comments after a class to support us all and encourage us. The inclusivity from all the teachers to acknowledge all different style of learner. All the teachers showed such stability in their teaching when endless questions came from the students. It was such a unique experience that I will always remember. Thank you doesnt seem enough but I would like to say that I hope I can pass onto my students the teachers passion, inclusivity and dedication that I experienced. Namaste my friends.

The Himalaya Yoga Valley 200YTT was an amazing experience. The two weeks of classes and daily practice showed me how different the body can feel with regular practice. I also find the philosophy and yoga lifestyle lessons challenging my everyday habits and interactions. Overall a beautiful and enriching journey.

Joining the 200h online YTT at Himalaya Yoga Valley Center in 2020 has made my dreams come true.
Practicing Yoga for the past 12 years, I was looking for a teacher training for quite a while, but taking a month or more off from work, leaving family behind for a retreat, plus the costs associated to it was not on my immediate and affordable agenda.
When YTT became available online, I started to search for a serious school with an affordable price that would resonate with my inner self.
Based in France I started to look for a French YTT that would match my expectations and agenda and couldn’t find something. As I geographically enlarged my searches, I came across HYV, read about their story, the course structure, the teachers behind the scenes, the videos and it really matched my expectations.
But the final decision criteria (on top of the attractive price) was the way the 200 hours are built: a mix of real time webinars, self-paced online classes and self-study and readings. That was the trigger that made me hit the I REGISTER button.
The first half of the training takes place during 2 first weeks as real-time webinars, where you have a great interaction with deeply engaged and caring teachers. The courses are amazing and I have learnt so much not only in anatomy, philosophy, Ayurveda or practicing, but on myself as well. Then the second half of the training is self-paced but still with regular check ‘ins to raise questions, and a great community within my student group sharing experiences during these 5 months.
I couldn’t recommend HYV 200h teacher training enough to all those hesitating, just do it. I just received my graduation certificate, am so proud of what I have achieved thanks to the caring teachers, their always relevant feedback on my practicums, and my student group .
I can’t wait to be able to meet the HYV team in person in Cork or Goa some day!
It is a life changing experience!
Namaste

I have just completed the Himalaya Yoga Valley teacher training course and I have to say at the outset that I am going to give the Himalaya Yoga Valley teacher training a really good review and glowing report but please understand I had never heard of them before seeing an ad 3 months ago. So I have no reason to write this except that I have tried a number of the other courses and found this the best. I have taught Buddhist yoga for 25 years and in that time I have seen Hatha, Vinyasa and other types of yoga become more and more popular so I decided to try the teacher training courses in some of these different types of yoga to educate myself, even though it is quite late in life for me, but I wanted to continue my yoga education. After a number of particularly poor yoga courses which only had videos to follow, I was so pleased that I found Himalaya Yoga Valley. This is not just another online course with succession of old re-run videos. These people really care and from the beginning real people took the time to interact with me and make me welcome. The course is time based so you do really do have to turn up to proper seminars on a daily basis like you would expect with a non online course. The seminars are with proper experienced and knowledgeable teachers of anatomy, philosophy and ethics as well as, you would expect, meditation and asana. In every seminar you can interact and ask questions and without exception each seminar was really interesting and inspiring as well as educational. Lalit, the head yoga teacher, gives live classes with caring, live instruction, which students of all levels can follow. Lalit is a traditionally trained and inspirational teacher to anyone who is seriously interested in becoming a properly educated teacher of traditional yoga. I would say that if you want to be a yoga teacher, this course will equip you with everything you need to know, plus it will give you a thorough assessement of your abilities before you start to teach. I cannot recomend this course enough. There are plenty of courses out there that cost more and are just non-live video content. Himalaya Yoga Valley really is not one of these, they have real live experienced teachers who I believe genuinely give their best, so that you can. If you are thinking of doing a teacher training course, I would say, after all my experience with over priced yoga teacher training courses I thoroughly recommend this one.

We have regular yoga classes with Himalaya Yoga Valley Online, through work at Granite Digital. These classes have received incredible feedback and the numbers of attendees have grown each week. The classes are varied but still suitable for all levels. We have partners, husbands, wives and children taking part in our classes which is great! My colleagues love that they have their cameras on or off, whatever suits them, and makes them feel comfortable. Anca from Himalaya is like one of the Team at Granite at this stage; she is an absolute star. We are looking forward to lots more yoga classes in 2021!

I cannot rate Himalaya Yoga Valley highly enough! Their 200hr online teaching training course is fantastic. The teachers are so supportive and knowledgeable, the course content is interesting, informative and practical, and the systems are second to none. The course provides a flexible, in-depth and nurturing environment for you to train, whilst also having a great community feel.
I would recommend anyone looking to complete their YTT or to deepen their yoga knowledge to go ahead with Himalaya Yoga Valley. Its truly a life-changing experience. Thank you to all of you!

Hymalaya yoga valley has been a lifeline for me over the past year. I find the team so generous with their time and care. I particularly find Anca and Lisa's practice so calming and easy to follow. I would be totally lost without my daily yoga. A day without yoga is a day without joy , for me. Thank you Hymalaya yoga valley . Míle Bouchas, Le grá more, Aideen.

The last time I was there, I attended the Yoga Retreat. And it was a treat, a real treat from beginning to end, being picked up at the airport to being dropped off at the end of my stay. I loved the warm and sincere welcome, my own large room with a huge balcony and constant hot water. The swimming pool is so well maintained and has plenty of shade, fresh towels, shower and chaise lounges which helped me get a super tan. The food is amazing and I suggest the Himalaya Yoga Valley invite Jamie Oliver to check it out! Most evenings involved attending local restaurants which were hand picked and of the highest standard and the lowest cost. The Greek Dancers at the Greek Restaurant was amazing. I look forward to going on the next retreat as soon as possible! Thank you Himalaya Yoga Valley.

The best yoga school that has a very structured way of teaching that enables student to shape their knowledge and also their career. More importantly, they provide a global perspective that is so much useful in current times. Not to mention the authenticity is maintained a 100% and you will get to learn the true yoga as it should be learnt. I recommend this school any day.

I signed up to the Himalaya Yoga Valley online app a few months ago and it has been a game changer. The mix of live classes and video library is perfect for me. With the video library, I really like being able to choose from various classes from an hour-long to 15 minutes. The teachers are excellent and explain things very clearly.

The variety of classes is excellent plus there is the added flexibility of doing workouts in your own time. I really enjoy these yoga classes.

Incredible teaching course. Genuinely life-changing. All the teacher were excellent, and so helpful to needs of the students. The course content was very interesting and informative. Would highly recommend it to any aspiring yoga teachers or anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge of yoga.

Great variety of content. A library for when you can’t make live classes. Really good value for money. So pleased I joined.

Namaste,
I want to thank to all Himalaya Yoga Valley Goa teachers!!!!
the training let me grow to such a yogi that I feel comfortable to teach and also having the desire to share my light of yoga now. it is such a relaxed, safe and effective way to being prepared for the next level to share my yoga love as a teacher! I enjoyed the course.

I would highly recommend this course to anyone considering signing up to a yoga teacher training course.

As the course was delivered online this allows for so much flexibility, yet there is still a real sense of community and support to keep you feeling motivated. The teachers were so informative and helpful, and really couldn’t do enough for you.
I am so thankful to all of the team at Himalaya Yoga Valley for creating such a fantastic course, and making it more accessible for me to complete the 200 hour teacher training.

What an incredible course!Delivered online but had such an intimate and supported experience.Felt so lucky to be learning from teachers who were so authentic and honest. They continue to really support you during and after. The Himalaya Yoga Valley has such a respected and growing community I feel very supported and connected by them even in 2020!

I had a fantastic time doing this course!
A friend of mine had recommended the course to me and I can’t thank them enough! I enjoyed having a few months to absorb all the information and being able to fit the course
in around my everyday life.
The teaching on the course is incredible!
Everything was very thorough and it felt like a very personal experience. I cannot recommend this course enough!
Can’t wait till I can get to India now 🧘‍♀️

I have to say that it was complete synchronicity that I found Himalaya Yoga valley and there online YTT when I needed a greater purpose during that early stage of lockdown.
The course was phenomenal not only in its content but also in the quality of its online platform.
The structure was excellent, with half the course centred around being part of a group, learning together and the second half based around self study.
All this was possible due to an incredible team with wonderful teachers. I can not recommend the course, and company enough, and I look forward to continuing my journey with them.
Thank you

I chose to do this course with HYV as I love their ethos and authenticity, as well as the affordability and accessibility of their online course but it still totally surpassed my expectations!
Throughout the course, I was continually impressed with the professionalism of the online resources - it was great to be able to watch and rewatch the lectures in my own time. I felt connected to my peers and the teachers during Module A which made it a really personalised experience. I continued to feel so well supported by and connected to the teachers throughout the more self-directed Module B.
I can't recommend this YTT any more, would give 6 stars if I could!!
