Incredible experience to dive into the Yoga, Indian culture and unique spiritual atmosphere of ancient Varkala. Highly recommend to start your way as a yoga teacher. Still miss my Indian Home, tasty food of Indian Mother and beautiful nature with the sound of ocean during your sleep at night 🙏 Very professional teachers and deep attitude to everything what they are doing. I was really lucky to find this place and such people!

I stayed at Navadurga Yoga School for a couple of weeks in November 2022. I felt most welcome by the team and family in this nature surrounded place with best home-made food. My goal was to get back to a daily Yoga & Pranayama routine and to deepen my practice. With the support of Shibin, yoga teacher and founder of the school, I achieved a wonderful pranayama technique and felt the big benefit of a daily discipline.

I completed my 200 hour ttc at Navadurga and it was a beautiful experience. The school is located in a perfect location near the beach, the temple and various cafes. The studio on the roof overlooks the trees creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. Its the perfect place to experience, yoga, nature and Varkala’s community.

Feel blessed I had the chance to attend Navadurga YTTC. It’s a tough intense and challenging experience that changes life for the better. In Navadurga I had the precious opportunity to study philosophy, meditation and adjustments from well prepared and professional teacher. But most of all I had the chance to practice yoga with a true yogi that considers yoga a path towards samadhi.
