As a Yoga Teacher, I chose to follow the 200 hours meditation teacher training in Yoga Essence Rishikesh because I wanted to learn and experience different meditation techniques that the training offers different techniques than other schools. Not only I experienced and learned a lot different meditation practices but also it became my life changing process. I found joy and calmness in myself; it deepened my inner journey to experience who I really am? The small group of the program allowed us to become intimate with classmates and made it possible for the excellent teachers to give personal guidance. The teachers are living what they teach and now I understand more what it means to be a yogi. Now I know how I want to teach yoga in my home country with a lot of joy, singing and dancing. I truly recommend this course and school. I’m thankful that I followed it. Namaste! Mario.

What I experienced @ Yoga Essence Rishikesh by joining 200 hour holistic Yoga Teacher training course cannot be described in words. It was a magical experience about life, mind, body and soul. About how to go deeper within and how go deeper into meditation, and how to let go. You need to feel it, to manifest it, to express it, to dance, to cry, to laugh, to scream, to jump, to understand what Swami Samarth is trying to bring with his course. I am fortunate that I have been one of his students because if you want to be a yoga teacher, you need to help yourself first, in order to help others. How you can stabilize others, if you don’t stabilize yourself? I discovered myself, I transformed myself and I learned to really love myself and others unconditionally. Per total I am grateful for what I receive at Yoga Essence. I know this was just my beginning to the Yoga journey, but this initiation was about ME, and it had a huge impact on knowing what is inside me and how I can go into yoga and meditation. Thank You Namaste!

Yoga Capital of India , Rishikesh I could experience essence of yoga by enrolling in 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training Course at Yoga Essence, Rishikesh under loving guidance of Swami Samarth. The ever friendly and supportive team of Joy, Anoop, Dhiraj, Ranjan, Prasad could made 200 hour yoga teacher training flow smoothly same as the flow of our gorgeous divine Ganga. I feel privileged as the course itself was beyond my expectations. Behind the tightly packed schedule without weekly off was the intention of keeping the group energy intact to achieve the transformational frequency at individual level and I felt it was the motto of the school. At the end of the completion of the course along with Certificate ,we could have the ‘transcend experience’ of inner growth through varied meditation practices as real take away Gift. In my view “After first-hand experience only, a participant can be an Ideal Teacher” is the foundation of Holistic Yoga Teacher Training at Yoga Essence Rishikesh. My earnest prayer for a Holistic Healthy Growth those who are joining the course and of the school. I am truly indebted to the entire team for their love and support during my entire stay. Pranam, Love

The insights I got while staying and learning at Yoga Essence is life changing. After seeking around the world for a right school/Ashram/academy for development of my inner journey I am very glad I found Yoga Essence. The school’s environment is amazing, very clean, and full of positive energy. The best part is the team and the management of the school, which is always ready to help. The techniques taught at Yoga Essence are multi-dimensional and very transformational. Swami Samarth I have to say that you are an amazing teacher and the best part is what you teach, you live. Your experience and insights are enlightening and I sincerely believe that Yoga Essence will do amazing work in the coming future. I have to add that your team consisting of Joy, Prasad, and Ranjan are amazing and all these guys are full of love, peace and harmony. The 200 hours Meditation teacher training course fulfills all my expectations what I was searching for. The contents of the course are touching various aspects of the meditation techniques which are quite refreshing and it fulfills expectations of a seeker.

Yoga Nidra Teacher Training was quite challenging for me in the beginning due to my accumulated stress and anxiety to go deeper relaxation and let-go. But as days passed, I understood the root causes of my issues and moved into the practices, I could able to release them due to Yoga Nidra sessions and expressive active meditation practices. It was a fantastic experience to understand, learn and feel the step by step methods of Yoga Nidra practices as per traditional Yogic science and modern medical science point of view from Swami Samarth. It was a nice balance between passive and active practices of yoga and meditation. The teachings were very useful and helped to go deeper into practice at the same time learning the skill to teach them. Lot of kindness and softness in teaching by both meditation & yoga teachers that were much appreciated. The food and the staff were very nice and friendly. Very tasty and lovely food, really enjoyed.
