Each day offers a thoughtfully designed Yoga asana practice with balancing sequences to increase flexibility and strength. We provide modifications to suit all levels, ensuring you find comfort and growth in every session.

Our morning Yin asana practice is followed by pranayama and meditation to center your mind, calm the nervous system, and prepare you for a mindful day. These practices aim to deepen self-awareness, reduce stress, balance the energies and bring clarity and calm into each moment.

This retreat encourages self-reflection through daily journaling giving you specific questions to work with. This gives you space to explore insights, get a deeper understanding of yourself, cultivate awareness, and track your personal growth.

In the Yoga Philosophy workshop, we’ll dive into the Eight Limbs of Yoga – a foundational guide for leading a balanced, mindful life, both on and off the mat. These workshops provide practical insights to enrich your practice and your life!

Reconnect with nature through mindful walks and forest bathing in the serene landscapes of the Eifel National Park. These guided sessions are designed to ground you in the present, enhance your sensual awareness, and deepen your sense of connection with the natural world.

Completing my 300 hour yoga teacher training was an amazing experience. From the beginning, it was clear that this program was far beyond simply deepening my physical practice.

Ashtanga and arm balancing were challenging and fun at the same time, I loved it.

The teachers were authentic, knowledgeable and so supportive. It felt like spending time with friends.

I left this program stronger with a more refined teaching practice and a deeper understanding of yoga. I feel more grounded, more confident and more inspired.

I highly recommend this training. Thank you for this wonderful experience and time together.

If you are looking to learn about yoga from a knowledgeable source, go to Anandam Yoga School. I did the 50 hours Yin Yoga Teacher Training. The program is diverse, varying from asanas to anatomy and much more. The lessons are taught at a location in the Eifel nature park, by a lovely, authentic couple. Thank you for the wonderful experience, Katharina and Sandeep!

I completed the 50-hour yin yoga training with Sandeep and Katharina and I am incredibly happy I found them. The training was above all professional: they have a lot of knowledge and know how to convey it in a very pleasant and clear way.
Moreover, Sandeep and Katharina quickly create an atmosphere of connection and trust, which has a positive effect on the group dynamics. I met lovely people and enjoyed being together during these six days. I am very grateful for this wonderful week and hope to stay in touch. I would happily choose their expertise again if I ever consider continuing my development.
Last but not least: the location was fantastic. What a gift to start every morning with a view of the sunrise and a view of Heimbach waking up!
Thank you so much, Katharina and Sandeep.

I took the 50h yin YTT in december and I had such a good time! Katharina and Sandeep have so much knowledge about the topics being discussed, such as anatomy of the body and about yogic philosophy.

A highlight for me was definitely the anatomy classes. You learn a lot about how the body works and how that connects to yin yoga, and also how your body can get the most benefits from yin classes, for example by adjustments you can make that work for you (or for your yoga students). I asked a lot of questions during the anatomy classes, and Katharina was able to give me a good answer every time!

Katharina and Sandeep really make you feel comfortable from the beginning on, for example by giving you a warm welcome and providing some snacks when you arrive. Every meal you eat together with the whole group, which makes you feel even more like you can ask everything to them and it creates connection and a cozy and warm atmosphere.

Another highlight for me was the hotel owner Katryn and the food she makes!! She cooks delicious and healthy (mostly plant-based) food and also works really hard to make sure that everyone is happy in her hotel!

All in all it was a really nice experience and I really feel like I will be able to add so much more depth and knowledge to my yoga classes now 🙂

I was so fortunate to attend a Yin Yoga Teacher Training with Katharina and Sandeep in Heimbach. The course was enriching on a very high level and felt truly authentic. Even after teaching yoga for three years, I learned so much. There was plenty of time for questions and space to explore different topics related to Yin Yoga in depth.

I can warmly recommend this training with two dedicated teachers who genuinely enjoy sharing their knowledge and wisdom, bringing a beautiful touch of India to Heimbach.

The course location offered a calm and peaceful environment, nourishing food, and the most amazing view during practice.

I am deeply grateful that the Anandam Yoga School — and Katharina and Sandeep — found me!

I had the most wonderful experience completing my 50-hour Yin Yoga teacher training course in Heimbach, Germany. Firstly the location was absolutely beautiful, peaceful, surrounded by nature, and the perfect setting for yoga. The stay was also so comfortable, cozy and welcoming, it really felt like home from the very first day.

It was a small group, which made it even more special. We had so many opportunities to ask questions, share, and learn deeply, it felt like a little family by the end. The teaching was traditional and authentically rooted in Indian yoga philosophy, which made the experience even more meaningful.

This course has completely opened up my knowledge and inspired me to delve much deeper into yogic philosophy and practice. I feel so much more connected to the true essence of yoga and am motivated to continue learning and incorporating the whole philosophy into my daily life.

Because of the teachers’ authenticity, passion, and dedication to sharing the true essence of yoga, I now feel confident to begin sharing the practice myself. They reminded me that yoga isn’t about performance or all the bells and whistles, but about being genuine, present, and offering a meaningful practice that truly supports people in their daily lives.

I met some lovely people and it was truly nourishing for the body, mind, and soul. I couldn’t recommend this course enough 🙂

Yin yoga teacher training, Oct 2025, Heimbach

Katharina and Sandeep are gracious, warm, dedicated yogic practitioners and teachers; a dedication which shines through in every aspect of their being. I suffer from chronic joint pain and had felt disempowered to broaden my asanas practice for this reason, but with patience and care they illustrated to me how yoga is for everyone- and how our limitations can lead to the greatest wisdom. After this teacher training, I feel empowered in my own body, but I also feel empowered to teach and hold space for people who need to navigate their own physical limitations. Katharina and Sandeep have an extremely strong theoretical foundation in Chinese medicine and Indian yogic tradition, combined with Katharina’s extensive knowledge within western nutrition, anatomy and physiology. They answered all our questions with eagerness and openness, and every teaching felt like a blessing and a warm ritual. They prioritise community, humor and knowledge in their yogic approach. I felt extremely safe in their capable hands during the entire training. Namaste and thank you!

I took the 50h yin yoga teacher training with Katherina and Sandeep in Heimbach and it was a great experience. The quality of the teaching was perfect. Very comprehensive, and they were patient with all our questions. The schedule was perfectly balanced. The location was amazing, the nature, the peace, everything we needed to enjoy our time there. The group size was on point, so we could feel at home. I only have positive things to say about!!! To anyone looking for an authentic and human experience to deepen your knowledge and practice, don't hesitate for a second. It is all worth it 🙏🏻

I had the pleasure of taking part in the 200h Yoga Teacher Training in Heimbach, Germany. This beautiful experience was guided by Katharina and Sandeep from the Anandam Yoga School, and I couldn’t be more thankful for their support and kindness. 🤍
Together, they created a heartwarming space for growth, learning, and appreciation. Every person’s opinion mattered, and all questions were welcomed with openness.
The knowledge shared about yoga-its history, philosophy, anatomy, and teaching methods-was truly extensive. As students, we were given the opportunity to explore different styles of yoga, including Hatha Yoga, Hatha Flow, Vinyasa Flow, and Yin Yoga.
Beyond the wonderful teachings, Katharina and Sandeep are genuinely kind and inspiring individuals. They share their passion and experience openly and wholeheartedly, always wanting the best for everyone.
I am deeply grateful for this life-changing experience🤍

The 300 hour advanced Yoga Teacher Training in Germany with Sandeep and Katharina has been one of the most powerful and transformative experiences of my Yoga journey.

The program is rooted in Ashtanga Vinyasa and gave me a strong foundation to master arm balancing and advanced transitions. Sandeep’s wisdom in philosophy and traditional practice, combined with Katharina’s supportive and precise teaching style, created the perfect balance of tradition and modern application.

I also loved the in-depth study of Yoga philosophy, anatomy, pranayama, and meditation. Training in a small group setting created a warm, international community where I felt safe to grow and expand as both a student and a teacher.

For anyone looking for a 300h Yoga Teacher Training in Germany, especially if you want to deepen your Ashtanga Vinyasa and arm balancing practice,
I wholeheartedly recommend Anandam Yoga School with Sandeep and Katharina.
