Student Testimonials: Growth, Peace & Inspiration
Preksha madam guided us through philosophy and asthangha with such clarity and depth. Their wisdom opened up a whole new dimension of yoga for me.
Rajesh sir brought an incredible energy to pranayam, he demonstrated a strong understanding of traditional pranayama techniques, effectively combining theory with guided practice.
I just finished 100 hours YTT at AYM Yoga School in Goa, and I’m highly satisfied with my experience. I stayed for 10 days at the school in a private room with full board (breakfast, lunch and dinner). I joined the ongoing 200 hours YTT course and they allowed me to attend for a shorter time given my work holidays restrictions.
I addended each class of the programme from 6:45 until 19:00 each day, including Pranayama, Hatha yoga, anatomy, yoga philosophy, karma yoga and Ashtanga yoga. Thanks to the teachers and the practices I’ve learned so many new things about the yoga practice and lifestyle, plus I feel incredibly rejuvenated and relaxed.
The team is professional and kind, ready to welcome and accommodate your requests. The food is vegetarian (no eggs, no meat, no fish), so be ready to adjust your diet or bring your own food in case of different habits.
I was able to maintain my high protein diet with few adjustments from the school’s menu.
The school is located in a safe area, you can walk around and reach the beach in 15 minutes, and visit the village and its shops. Being a female solo traveler I felt extremely safe and I have connected with few locals that supported me during the days of my stay making it a wonderful and pleasant experience! We created a close connection with the other course participants and this is for sure the best thing that happened during the course! Be ready and open to new meaningful connections ❤️
Rajesh and his team are wonderful and it’s an experience I’ll never forget! Im definitely continuing my yoga education and will be getting a full 200 hours YTT certificate online with AYM 🙏
Special remakes to Preksha, our anatomy and Ashtanga teacher, for all the knowledge and deep conversations shared on the mat and off the mat 🫶
AYM Goa was more than a yoga teacher training it was a soul-awakening experience that cracked me open in all the ways I didn’t know I needed. By being Surrounded by lush nature, sacred trees, singing birds, and the hum of the jungle, this place became my sanctuary. The sounds of the earth mixed with the rhythm of music and chanting created something indescribable like my inner child remembered a language she had forgotten. It wasn’t just about learning yoga poses it was about coming back to life and learning how to be present again. The food was nourishing and full of love. Every meal felt like a reset for my body simple, clean, and grounding. And the outdoor activities, from hiking to waterfall dips, pushed me far outside my comfort zone in the most beautiful way. I learned how brave I actually am.
What makes AYM truly special is the energy it holds. This isn’t just about yoga it’s about remembering who you are. The breathwork sessions changed my life. They unlocked emotions, clarity, and peace I’ve never felt before. I now carry that breath with me into each day it’s become a sacred ritual. The teachers aren’t just instructors they’re wisdom keepers. They saw us. Held us. Walked beside us. The staff treated us like family, and my classmates? Soul family. We stepped into the unknown together and witnessed each other’s transformations in real time. We laughed, cried, healed, and grew beside one another.
I came to India looking for something and I found me. A softer, braver, more grounded version of myself. One that values her worth and no matter who comes along her journey she will value herself enough to know what she deserves. This journey brought me to this place. So If you’re ready for a true mind-body-spirit transformation, AYM Goa is calling you. Say yes. You won’t be the same person as you came. A piece of my heart will always be at this school. Thank you AYM. ❤️

I came to India without any expectation. I was thinking I just wanted to experience Goa for a month and head to China while learning something new.
Teachers here are all amazing individuals. They are not only knowledgeable but also caring to every one of students.
Rajesh is the symbol of yoga spirit, as far as I know about yoga. Rajesh is always calm, collected, mindful, and respectful. Rajesh and his wife are always warm and welcome everyone.
Our anatomy and philosophy teacher Prekshar is a wonderful soul. I can not ask for more. She is inspiring, loving, and always supports every student possible.
Our Alignment and Hatha teacher Chryston is also inspiring. We all become a new better version after graduating here. I'm so thankful for my teachers here and forever grateful to Ms Maya and Mr Mithiledge in the kitchen who cook with love and spreading love to all of us. We will be missing all of you very much 😭😭
The morning would start with pranayam and meditation class taught by Mr. Rajesh, who always had a calm and peaceful energy. He also organised kirtan and wholeheartedly participated in it by playing drums by himself 😊😊
Hatha and ashtanga was taught by Rohit sir, i specifically liked how powerfully he started ashtanga class with ashtanga mantra that would give us a hell lot of energy to go through ashtanga class(ashtanga is intense😅) he also carefully explained adjustments and alignment which is necessary to go deep in any asana and to avoid injuries at the same time…
Anatomy and philosophy was taught by Mr. Chryston. He always poured all his knowledge into the class with a smile on his face, always made sure that we understood what he taught with an interactive session…
About the place
Rooms are quite nice, 3 veg meals cooked by kaki and bhaiya were always delicious..
There’s a washing machine to wash your clothes…View from rooftop is mesmerising(it was my favourite place to be).. as it was low season, not too much rush in arambol, which made my experience quite laid back and pleasant…
If u are planning to do 200hr ttc in goa, I recommend this place 100%
The curriculum was well-structured , which helped me develop both personally and professionally.
The environment was peaceful, welcoming, and ideal for learning. Whether you're looking to deepen your practice or become a certified teacher, I highly recommend AYM Goa for its authenticity, quality instruction, and sense of community.
The classes were led by experienced teachers with deep knowledge, very dedicated and professional in their teaching. The learning environment is really what you make of it—your experience will reflect your attitude and openness to the process.
That said, I personally felt that the overall energy of the place didn’t resonate with me fully. While all the staff and teachers were kind and helpful, the atmosphere was quite controlling at times—more like being in a strict school for children than an adult learning environment. This may be due to cultural differences or a specific management style, but I found the energy to be quite masculine, chaotic, and occasionally stressful. We often lacked clear information regarding logistics, which affected the overall comfort and ease of the experience.
Accommodation was very good: clean rooms, comfortable beds, options for AC, plenty of storage space, armchairs, and a table. The food was delicious vegetarian cuisine, and we had access to filtered water, washing machine, and brand-new yoga mats. The price is also very competitive compared to other schools in the area. The place has a lot of untapped potential when it comes to the outdoor and common areas. With just a few clean lounge chairs, cushions, or outdoor seating, it could become a really lovely space to relax and connect with others during free time.
Another important note: the school operates in collaboration with another yoga school under a different name, and this can be confusing. I signed up under a different school name and course description, which didn’t mention anything about Ashtanga Yoga, yet it turned out to be the dominant practice here.
In summary:
If you’re looking for an affordable yoga training, this is definitely a good option.
If you’re here to learn a lot and deepen your practice, you will definitely find that too.
However, if your yoga background is mostly from the West and you expect a lot of emotional support, flexibility, and open dialogue from teachers, this might not be the best fit—and a training in different country might be more in line with your expectations.
I must say, I’m very grateful for for Dr. Yamuna (anatomy teacher), the philosophy teacher Nvard, and Sami—each of them was trying to bringing a beautiful, supportive energy to the space. These are exactly the kind of teachers I wish to meet on my path in the future.
Please note that this review is not only an evaluation of the teachers’ skills—many of them were truly excellent—but rather a reflection on the school as a whole and the overall experience over the course of several weeks.
