Real Stories, Real Results

  • “The best TTC Yoga course in India”

    This is the best YTT TTC Yoga course in India, definitely in Mysore. It is in the beautiful countryside outside of Mysore, as it is a real ashram experience.
    This kind of YTT yoga experience you cannot find in the West, and they are rare even in India …
    The teacher Didi is so real, authentic and amazing.
    The price is very affordable, not just a commercial scheme.
    111% recommend to anyone looking to take a 200hr or 300hr yoga training.
    This kind of Ashram, teacher and experience is a real gem to find. Go for it.

  • “One of the best experiences of my life”

    I completed a 200-hour TTC at Praguna Yoga Shala, and without a doubt, it was one of the best experiences of my life. I came in hoping to deepen my yoga practice, but I left with so much more than I could have imagined. This place is not just about becoming a yoga instructor or mastering yoga asanas - it’s about transforming both the body and mind.

    Didi is probably one of the best teachers one can find nowadays, and it’s noticeable that every detail in the course was designed with so much thought and love. The dedication of the karma yogis was inspiring, and their selfless service, along with the nourishing and delicious meals lovingly prepared by the aunties, created a warm and supportive environment that truly enriched the experience.

    I can’t express in words how grateful I am for my time in the ashram and can’t wait to come back for more courses. Om Nama Shivaya. 🪷✨🤍🙏🕉️

  • An authentic Yoga Ashram experience

    I don't have words to describe how good this place is. Didi Kadambari is a yoga teacher par excellence but what stands out is the authenticity of Yogic Ashram experience she and the team is providing. I participated in the 200-hour TTC in Nov/Dec 2024 with my wife and we feel we are blessed to find out about this place. The program is structured with great thoughtfulness and covers various aspects of Yoga holistically.
    The charges are set absolutely minimum and is same irrespective of nationalities. The only mission of this ashram is to spread yogic knowledge in its full authenticity at minimum charges for everyone.
    Please do give it a try if you are willing to learn yoga holistically.
