Yogshakti

If you’re looking for a yoga training course with a focus on connecting with the mind, Yogshakti is an amazing place to be. Under Shilpa’s watchful guidance, it was fascinating to observe the transformation that has happened to my body in the span of two months. Shilpa introduced many useful concepts that have helped me understand how to use my body to connect with my mind. When I could access this, a lot of postures opened up for me. While I understood intellectually what lightness in movement meant, but it wasn’t until I achieved my first weightless headstand that I saw the power of the techniques in Integrative Yoga. I liked the part online, part in-person structure of the 200hr yoga teacher training program. The online course, over a period of 1.5 months, allowed my body to slowly absorb the benefits of a consistent practice. I was mind-blown when my breathing cleared up, I saw a difference in my meditation, and I’m probably the strongest and most flexible I’ve ever been. But what's most beautiful for me in the practice is learning how to come home to myself, to that stillness that resides within each of us. I really loved learning about the philosophies and theories behind the practice that teach me how to navigate the ups and downs of this world. Because the real yoga, as Shilpa would put it, begins off the mat.

I would also like to share with everyone here on my beautiful experience at YogShakti for the past 10 days Immersion we all had. I have learnt so much from Shilpa that I do not know where do I start from. Firstly, I never knew what Yoga meant before coming here. The way we are all educated here is like the most essential lessons in the school of life we needed all this while. I'm very very Grateful coming here. As I have just completed my 10 days Immersion today, I have not perfected my Asanas as yet but compared to day 1 and now day 10, I feel so much lighter , more flexible and I personally have encountered some health benefits. I have been an asthmatic all my life. But after the 5th day of doing Yoga at YogShakti, I have not used my inhaler till now and I have started to breath from my nose very comfortably as all this while I have been using my mouth to inhale and exhale. I am also a Migraine Patient...and it's incredible that I did not get a migraine attack. Seeing all this Amazing results has made me more excited in exploring Asanas and to practice them very diligently. Besides that, the way Shilpa had explained everything so beautifully on philosophy aspect, that has truly touched me from within. And the relation between Asanas and the philosophy of life. In the rat race in the world, I never expected to find such a school where it has taught us to appreciate our own beings and to simply learn how to LIVE. I refer to this as School because I feel this is what School really mean and not the those schools that has taught us to participate in the rat race and compete till we reach the final destination of life where we return to dust , taking nothing with us. Shilpa has taught me that virtues are what goes with us...that contributes to Samskara which then decides the destiny of our lives. I'm blown away with each day's experience I had here. I am also thankful to all those who joined these 10 days Immersion. Lovely people. I'm so grateful to meet all of you and all those lovely conversations we all had during breakfast and lunch times. It's been a Lovely Family for 10 days. Waking up early and reaching there by 7.30 am has been such a bliss. ???? Our Beautiful Marlene who has been preparing very Delicious Lunch for all of us for the past 10 days. Thank U Marlene. I'm so grateful for every single meal prepared and the love you put in ?? Shilpa , I am looking forward for this 21 days Online which I am starting tomorrow????will definitely update everyone on my experiences and looking forward for everybody's sharing as well. ????????????????????????????

I just finished Shilpa's 21 day yoga course and I am "hooked." After doing yoga for 15 years including getting my yoga teacher training and attending many yoga workshops/trainings over the years....I feel like I have finally found the yoga that is for me. A yoga that is meditation in movement, flowing, accessible, mindful, full of ease and grace and healing mentally and physically. I went back to my old yoga class right afterwards and struggled as I missed the beautiful graceful flow that Shilpa teaches and shares with her students. I highly recommend and have been telling everyone about it. I loved it so much that I am getting my 300 hour teacher training with Shilpa. It was a beautiful journey and one I look forward to continuing.

Dearest Shilpa! The daily practices were really great! Love your explanation. Your suppleness is truly impressive. How you are able to move from one pose to another speaks volume for integrative yoga. It was easy to follow as they were not too difficult to do. The stretches, the flows, the breathing techniques resonate well with me. Am so so grateful for this opportunity to join your 21-day course online. (happy I can say I'm a pioneer for this.. ??) Am still taking down my own notes for reference. I can't thank you and your team enough for introducing it to me. I wish Yogshakti continued success in sharing this wholesome practice... Hope to join you and the gang again soon. God bless! ??????

I attended the wonderful 21 day course. It helped undo many misconceptions I had on how certain poses should be done and also improved my overall posture... I find myself more mindful of each pose and more focused. The routines turn into a form of moving meditation. I will definitely continue to practise and hopefully progress! Completely hooked! A fantastic experience!

There is no way one can explain what actually is going on in the 21 days course. It is so beautiful, so rich, intense and different to what one usually know, feel and do. At the same time is done with ease and surprising lightness. The only way to understand it is to come and try it by yourself, as it is exceptionally individual and unique. I think Shilpa have created one of a kind approach of contributing to people's health and happiness. Well balanced course that you fall in love with and can not wait the sun to rise so you can go again and again. It is addictive. Once you succeed, under the highly professional supervision of Shilpa, to implement the practices and poses, you will not be the same - you will discover yourself in a different way, without limits of your physical body and especially of your soul. My personal biggest achievement is learning to meditate. I tried many times earlier. Only now I understand that I was not even close to it before. Equipped with this and many other new skills I can move further empowered and free. Thank you Shilpa! We are blessed to have you in Kuala Lumpur!

I have just completed my second 21 day course and I cannot wait until the next one. After years of doing multiple styles of exercise and not always enjoying much of it, this has been such a breath of fresh air. Shilpas approach to tackle the mind, body and soul leave you feeling so energised and refreshed. I have thoroughly enjoyed all of my time at Yogshakti and feel as though I have really learned new things about myself, not just the poses being taught. I would really recommend taking the time to come to any one of the workshops Shilpa runs, she is a true inspiration.

I seriously feel everybody with health issues right from asthama , BP , skin allergies to lack on focus , you name it , should take resort to Shilpa’s yoga practice as she is an image of perfection . Her sincerity & dedication to her teaching practice is unsurpassable as it’s from the heart with no commercial twist to it . It’s a very big asset that appeals to me immensely . I have been suffering from asthama due to the pollen count being rather high in the city I live in , but the Buteyko workshop has changed my breathing pattern and am now conscience of my breath every moment of the day . In conjunction the 21 days chakra workshop has been a game changer . Can’t thankyou for the tool u’ve given me for a feel better lifestyle shilpa ???? Mita Puri

I have done Shilpa’s 14 days journey through the chakras and also 21 days course. It was an amazing experience, an amazing insight into integrating yoga movement, Qi Gong, meditation and philosophy. Here I am, taking up RYT 500 hours with Shilpa’s teaching on Integrative yoga. I love the philosophy behind the teaching, the teaching of the yoga sutras, and various movements of the asanas. I will recommend Yogshakti to all who seek for a holistic approach to yoga, rejuvenation, and self realizations. ??

Shilpa Ghatalia is such an incredible teacher. I met her over a decade ago while starting my journey of yoga. I had the opportunity to take a class on a return visit to KL. I was honoured to teach an Ayurveda workshop at her studio, and then I enjoyed a class with Shilpa. She is holistic and integrative with her approach. Very special space and teacher
