AyurYoga Eco-Ashram is a unique green project in India, where the love for Mother Nature goes along with the passion to improve the internal environment within our body-mind through Yoga, Ayurveda and Spirituality. With the experience of more than 85+ month long Teacher Training Retreats, AyurYoga Eco-Ashram is rated as one of the best places for both 200 and 300 hours Yoga Teacher Trainings in India. We also offer 2 week Yoga Retreats and 1 to 4 weeks Ayurveda Retreats. 

We are located on the banks of River Kabini in the peaceful countryside of Mysore, Karnataka. We are one-hour driving distance from the ancient mountains and forests of the Western Ghats in Kerala and Tamil Nadu in South India. Located in 18 acres of organic farm, A

We have 4 yoga spaces and several outdoor spots to practice Yoga. A traditional Ayurveda clinic with medically qualified doctors and therapists from Kerala compliments our yoga retreats. With 40 eco-friendly rooms and healthy vegetarian food, the ashram is an ideal place for spiritual seekers to explore the traditional Ayurveda and Yoga in India. Unlike the seasonal yoga studios in touristy towns of Rishikesh, Goa, Dharamsala etc., the yoga courses and Ayurveda retreats offered here are meant for people who are seeking long term lifestyle changes in body and mind, to lead a life of fulfilment. The ashram is often ranked in media among the top 10 places to study Ayurveda and to learn yoga in India.

Other than love for Mother Nature and Spiritual Healing of Body-Mind, we are equally passionate about spiritual and cultural exchange between East and West, as envisioned by Swami Vivekananda. Though we are non-religious, we are humble to invite and to learn from the traditional monks / teachers from various spiritual traditions within India, including Buddhism, Sufism and Christian Mysticism. We show our respect and take inspiration from the ancient yogis of India, to all modern spiritual mystics. Nevertheless, the main purpose of the ashram is to create a suitable environment to practice spiritual sadhana, irrespective of the personal beliefs students may follow.

Yoga Teacher Training Retreats at our ashram are very unique as we give equal importance to philosophical and spiritual aspects of yoga, along with intense practice of Asanas and Pranayamas of Hatha Yoga. We have an experience of teaching 60+ Yoga Teacher Training courses, graduating more than 1100+ graduates from 40+ countries. Our Yoga Retreats for Beginners and Intensive Yoga Retreat for advanced yogis are rated among best yoga retreats in India, and limited to 10 students per each group. The Ayurveda Hospital in the ashram offers traditional Ayurveda Treatments throughout the year, but limited to only 10 clients at one time. We also offer Ayurveda Courses taught by traditional Ayurveda vaidyas and planning to offer more educational Ayurveda seminars to the public.

    Besides all the qualified training received, we were treated to a ritual fire ceremony and a traditional Indian dance show. Yogic cleansing practices, meditation and Indian cuisine were part of our daily routine. It was an amazing experience.

    I will never thank enough the teachers of Ayur Yoga Ashram for their commitment and generosity in sharing all their knowledge, both theoretical and practical I definitely couldn't expect more. Much more than a teacher training, a transformative experience!

    From the moment I started my research to identify the right school to advance my training in hatha yoga, I was blown away by the rigour, sincerity and thoughtfulness applied to every detail of the pre- and in-program experience starting from the curriculum and daily schedule, and down to the ashram accommodation and diet to support a yogic lifestyle. It is hard to find words to describe the wonderful teachers I’ve had the privilege to learn from during my 300-hour teacher training program - they are truly among the best I have experienced over many years of yoga training. AyurYoga Eco Ashram will definitely be a place I fondly return to, as my practice and yoga journey evolve. Deepest thanks to everyone at the ashram for the role they have played in supporting my personal path!
