I highly recommend Buddha Yogpeeth for 200Hr TTC! I finished mine in January and I’m so happy I chose this school, because I don’t think I could have found better ratio of affordability and quality. If you’re looking for a place to learn more about yoga, this is definitely the right place. Even though I’ve been practicing yoga for years, I still learned so many new things - all the teachers were amazing, super knowledgeable and inspiring, which was the most important part of this experience for me. The accommodation is simple but cleaned regularly, food was not very diverse but I didn’t mind that as there was always plenty of it. Gopal and Shiva were always there for us in case we needed anything, or just for recommendations. So grateful for the experience 🙏

Without a doubt, Bhuddha Yog Peeth deserves the title of the best yoga school in Bali. Their extensive presence with a branch in Rishikesh and offering courses in Amalfi Coast only reinforces their expertise in the field. Our encounter with Sanjeev Ji was the highlight of our trip. He not only taught us the physical aspects of yoga but also delved into its profound philosophy. His caring nature made us feel like we were part of a close-knit family. Bali, with its picturesque beauty, provided the perfect setting for a transformative yoga journey. Each moment spent in Bali was filled with a sense of calm and inner peace. We left with hearts full of gratitude and a newfound love for yoga."Bhuddha YogPeeth, owned by the amazing Sanjeev Ji, is a true gem. The food from the Kitchen Department team was simply delicious. Sonu Ji and Sachin Ji's yoga classes were so rejuvenating. Sanjeev Ji's warm hospitality made us feel at home. It's a wonderful place for peace and wellness. Highly recommended!

I recently did the 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training here at Buddha Yogpeeth, going into the 23 day course I wasn't expecting much as it was a cheaper loading="lazy" alternative apposed to the others in Rishikesh, I was surely mistaken - this course for the price was exceptional!The accommodation and food provided were great for the price (bear in mind it is included with the cost of the course, no AC if you do need that) the accommodation is slightly out the way at the top of Tapovan, less noisy and you don't hear the beeping every 5 seconds from the cars and bikes.Our teachers were amazing, we had a different teacher for each discipline of yoga. Big thank you to Sanjeev for the Ashtanga, Pinky for Pranayama and Meditation, Sonu for Teaching Methology and Hatha, Radhisha for Philosophy and Gopal for the Vinyasa!I've learnt a lot during this short time, not just about the physical aspect of yoga but also the history surrounding it and see it now more as a way of life rather than it just being something you do for exercise and stretching.I would highly recommend this school as they really care about your learning and wanting to make a difference by taking the time to explain each subject in depth and not just pumping the prices up to make a profit.
