Adishakti Yogashala

I have just completed the most fantastic, inspiring, informative yoga teacher training course at Adishakti Yogashala. I didn't stay at their guest house Pachamama, because I live somewhere already but it's a wonderful place to stay while doing the course . Lovely rooms and balcony space overlooking lovely lush green gardens, and all of the food made for us was made with care and consideration while during the course, delicious healthy meals every day. All the teachers have been absolutely amazing. Their knowledge, care, compassion, support, guidance, humour, and love has been absolutely incredible. They have patience to us as a group and on an individual basis as well. The theory classes were full of such in-depth topics I have learnt so much from each and every class. The Asana classes have taught me so much too. Manoj's classes were extra special with his meditation, pranayama, mudras and yoga nidra included in the classes. Sujeesh is an incredibly patient, excellent ashtanga teacher. Anil's alignment and adjustment classes were so beneficial to fully understand the postures. I have learnt so much from each teacher due to their knowledge and teachings. I am so very grateful for everything that they have a shared. I highly recommend this yoga school for anyone interested in studying a yoga teacher training course due to the structure of their courses, the lessons and in-depth knowledge and general all-round excellent customer care to all of the students and guests. Highly recommended.

I made the best decision of my life to choose such a wonderful TTC with absolutely fantastic teachers. I love every minute of it. Would recommend to everyone who would like gain knowledge of yoga and Ayurveda in traditional Indian way. Definitely coming back next year for more. Adiskhati Yogashala thank you for everything !!!!!

Adiskakti Yogashala is a very professional and thoroughly working Yogaschool. Very good Yoga training, Education in Philosophie, Breathing,History, Cooking and much more. They provide great companie, a lot of fun and passion beside their Yoga. Accomodation and food is excellent. In just loved it.....very good choise. goodie

The yoga classes I did here were exceptional. So authentic yet presented in a very resonant way. The knowledge of the teachers here is huge and it was such a pleasure to glean off them. I stayed at pachamama and the accomodation was excellent - clean and comfortable. It’s a little slice of paradise. The family who run the shala are amazing. So genuinely caring and such a warm inviting environment. The food was absolutely exceptional - every day something different and just so yummy. Special mention to Shiva who was the waiter/cleaner/helper - he works so hard and does such an excellent job. Thank you everyone

I can reccomend AdiShakti Yogashala for those, who are searching for a traditional yoga and Ayrveda courses with focus on yoga philosophy. For those who want to deepen their knowledge in the basics of yoga and learn Ayurveda also. Manoranjan is a great teacher and I can say with confidence that you will learn a lot in his classes. I’m happy and grateful to get knowledge from him

I just finished my November 200 hr TTC with Adishakti - I learned so much! The course was different from what I expected and focused more on the theoretical and philosophical aspects of yoga rather than asanas. In that way, I came out with a stronger foundation in my practice of 10 years, a better understanding of the Hatha tradition, of which asanas are only a part. The course was very dense with information and seemed to be structured in a way that emphasized self practice. Now that I'm finished, I have everything I need to develop my own unique style of teaching. The highlight of the course was the teachers and the entire staff at Pachamama - everyone went out of their way to meet the varying needs of all the students. They really operate and make one feel like part of a family. So sweet And I couldn't have asked for a better group of fellow students - all karmically connected and now in this life I'm happy I chose Adishakti and can recommend it for foundational studies, which many of us in the West are lacking. You'll become stronger in your practice and can begin sharing a more expanded or comprehensive version of yoga to your students back home. Thank you Adishakti!

Great teacher, I enjoyed every class and learned a lot of him. He Is very professional and the best teacher that I found in varkala.

If you are looking for a real yoga experience, Adishakti yogshala is definitely the right choice! The teachers are really specialists and professional and putting all their passion in it. They are not just teaching yoga, they also live it! The Hatha and Ashtanga classes are awesome, challenging as well as intense and the feeling afterward is just great! The experience of the whole package with yoga philosophy, mudra, meditation and holistic yoga lifestyle with this wonderful people definitely changed my life for ever. Can´t wait to be back!

Amazing group of teachers, calm and pleasant stay at Pachamama beach in beautiful Varkala, Kerala. Highly recommended for the traditional Ayur-yoga experience.

Great experience !!! In our spanish retreat in varkala, super yoga teachers, and lovely accomodation i feel at home in every moments, i recommend it to all yoga lovers. Thanks for everything. Such amazing team!

I tried both hatha and ashtanga yoga and every time I enjoyed so much. Great teacher as always trying to achieve new moves. Thanks for everything I’ll be there as much as I can!

Amazing yoga classes. I know the best teacher, this is Manoj. Once you come at his class, your heart will stay there forever

These teachers have changed the course of my life forever. The knowledge they shared with me not only saved my life but improved it exponentially. It should not be a question if you should train with them only how you'll get there.

Manoj and I spent a lot of time together, talking about everything, life, cooking, the crazy world. He's so passionate about yoga and the benefits it can bring to you, his energy rubs off on everyone! We did all types of yoga, and my favorite was ashtanga. Recommend him to everyone!!

I had a pleasure to visit Manorajan's yoga lessons at Adishakti Yogashala in Varkala. I want to admit personal attention of the teacher to everyone in the group even if there were up to 10 students. I have started progressing really fast after yoga lessons here and feeling so good. Thank you for growing the interest in me. I would not hesitate to recommend the school and Manorajan personally to anyone who will be in Varkala.
