By the end of our training, you will have grown significantly on your journey, both as a teacher and a student, ready to bring your enhanced knowledge and experience into your practice and teaching.

Yogic Sukshma Vyayama

Sukshma Vyayama is an ancient practice introduced by Sri Dhirendra Bhramchari. It is a technique of yogic postures and dynamic movements to activate the subtle pranic body and rejuvenate our joints.

Many yoga teachers focus on asana poster practices but don’t practice these small exercises which are crucial in the development of strength and flexibility in our physical body and to develop our consciousness.

You will be learning the complete sequence of 48 yogic exercises to develop the consciousness in each and every cell of your body.

Patanjali Yoga Sutras

The literal meaning of the word “sutra” is “thread” and these sutras are just combinations of words threaded together. Within the space of these 196 short sutras the entire science of Yoga is clearly presented: its aim, the necessary practices, the obstacles you may encounter along your path, their removal and the results that will be obtained from these practices.

The Samadhi Pada, Sadhana Pada, Vibhuti Pada and Kaivalya Pada – We cover the four chapters of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras in this course offering you a greater understanding of his teachings and highlight the importance these teachings have today in our daily life.

Bhagvad Gita

“The song of god” is a conversation between the warrior Arjuna and his guide Lord Krishna. Arjuna finds himself in a moral dilemma and seeks help from Krishna.

In these classes we will discuss the 18 chapters and their meaning in detail. We give you more information about the three secrets of the Bhagvad Gita and you will realize that this scripture and its teachings are now as relevant as it was when it was written.

We will teach you how to use this knowledge in your everyday life, especially in particularly hard or over exciting times to keep the equanimity of your mind, no matter the external circumstances.

Hatha Yoga Scriptures

Yoga succeeds by these six: enthusiasm, openness, courage, knowledge of the truth, determination, and solitude.” – Swami Svatmarama, Hatha Yoga Pradipika

In Western culture, Hatha yoga is typically understood as asanas. In the Indian traditions, Hatha yoga is much more. It extends beyond being a sophisticated physical exercise system and integrates ideas of ethics, diet, cleansing, pranayama, meditation and a system for spiritual development of the yogi.

We are going to discuss the Hatha Yoga scriptures that build the foundation of all the different Yoga styles we practice today, with a main focus on the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and Gheranda Samitha.

The Hatha Yoga Pradipika and the Gheranda Samhita are the most detailed manuals describing the techniques of Hatha Yoga. We are going to explore the 4 limbs of Hatha Yoga decribed by Swami Svatmarama in the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and the Saptanga Yoga in Maharshi Gheranda’s Gheranda Samitha.

Ashtanga Vinyasa

Ashtanga Vinyasa, a vital part of the Hatha Yoga system, consists of six fixed series with a set order of asanas. In this  300 hour yoga teacher training Bali we focus on the Primary Series and introduce you to the art of teaching Ashtanga Vinyasa.

But, the way we live our lives nowadays often results in energy blockages and can lead to physical and mental disturbances and diseases.

What Our Customer Say About Us

The classes were rigorously structured, combining traditional and modern understandings of yoga and not just focusing on the asanas. This enabled a deeper understanding of practice and aided in our own personal journey and growth throughout the three weeks.

Our teachers were of the highest standard I have experienced, they really knew their stuff! They allowed time for open and honest conversations. Emotionally they were very supportive, always in contact whenever we needed them. Always with a smile on their faces and getting to understand us as individuals.

All the classes were accessible for all levels, I would highly recommended this yoga school to everyone wishing to broaden their understanding of Yoga in its entirety.

Authentic, humble honest. I did have the best experience here with such safe and comforting teachers. The groups are small the lessons are full with valuable information. yoga Philosophy being thought by Sandeep, a native indian who grew up with yoga since he is a child and lives it with his whole heart is such a special, unique and most important authentic and honest experience which is hard to find in any other schools around Bali.
Katharina is also a wonderful devoted teacher and it is nice to see this Balance of both i helps to understand.
I wouldn‘t go to any other school and I would love to join many more of Anandam Yoga School courses.

Thank you very much🙏

Anandam yoga school is amazing!!! I learned so much from them. Ankur was an incredible teacher and was very knowledgeable in all aspects of yoga, asanas, pranayama, hatha, vinyasa, etc. I absolutely loved this authentic yoga teacher training. I wanted to learn yoga from someone who knew the roots of yoga from India and Ankur taught that and more! I feel like I gained an even deeper love and appreciation for yoga through this experience which I didn’t even know was possible. They pushed me to be the best that I could be and I will always be grateful for that. The course taught me a lot and I am looking forward to teaching in my community back home!! I would absolutely recommend Anandam Yoga School. They have a wonderful environment centered on learning and growing!

I chose to take my 200h YTT on Bali with Anandam Yoga School as it was of utmost importance to me to learn about the foundations of Yoga from an Indian guide with a deep connection to the practice & its tradition in India, while having local rooting in Bali. Sandeep, Katharina & Kadek imparted a well of knowledge about Yoga asana practice as well as anatomy, yoga philosophy, the history of yoga, pranayama, meditation, shatkarma (cleansing rituals), equity, cultural appropriation, and much more, for us students (and future teachers) to build on for a lifetime to come, knowing that we'll be able to honour the roots of Yoga in India as most of us return to share our practice in Western societies. I am also deeply grateful for the care & support that Katharina & Sandeep provided to us throughout the journey, from travel logistics to a broad variety of recommendations (restaurants, clinics, visa agents, etc.) on anything we might need.

Valerie Marouche

I just finished my 300hr yoga teacher training with them. I am their return student as I also did my 200 hour ytt with them. The experience with them are pleasant. I’ve learnt a lot from them, from asanas, alignments, philosophy, pranayama, and the Hindu tradition. I’ve grown so much after the training, feeling more confident in teaching yoga. Ashtanga yoga was demanding and it’s great to have mysore style every morning with Sandeep as an instructor. He would challenge you and push you above your limits. Arm balancing classes are fun and I have developed so much strength compared to when I first started the training. Both Katarina and Sandeep have beautiful and kind souls. They are always there for you and back you up whenever you need them. After 500 ++ hours we spent together we have developed a stronger bond as good friends! I would really recommend them if you are looking for yoga teacher training courses!!
