It is a good school with good teachers. I had an overall nice experience living in Rishikesh. I dream of returning. Like any Yoga Alliance school, the contents are limited, and in that sense I imagined that I would learn more things, but in any case it was a good choice to study in India and I will gladly return. Grateful and forever in love with Rishikesh, Ganga Ma and its people.

Everything lived up to my expectations, the teachers and staff were kind, attentive, patient, it was a real pleasure to share these moments here in Rishikesh! The food is homemade every day (delicious), the rooms are as described and you can find shops and restaurants nearby if needed.

My experience at AYM was amazing. I did the 200 hour Yoga TTC course, where I had excellent teachers, made new friends, and enjoyed vegetarian food. I learned more about the philosophy of Yoga with all the courses that were given to us as well as the day to day at school. I take pleasant memories. I hope to come back soon. Thanks.
