Samyama Mindfulness 200 hour YTT was incredible in its depth and breadth of education. It was a full immersion with people who have dedicated a large part of their lives to yoga and meditation, living in Bali. Students were primarily taught Tantric Hatha yoga but were also exposed to vinyasa flow and "heart of yoga" styles. Any of theses styles were eligible for the practicum. I learned an enormous amount of yogic theory/ philosophy and many different styles of meditation as well as how to lead and teach meditation. The vegan diet provided at the Samyama eatery 3 meals a day for the duration of the training was delicious and inspiring. The venue is beautiful and our group of students from all over the world developed a bond that we will will keep-- comparing yoga notes globally as we move into teaching in our respective countries. My only caveat is that this may not be a fit for someone definitely interested in a very athletic style of yoga.

My time at Samyama was truly transformational. I got such incredibly valuable tools for both my work in holistic health and for my personal life. I grew miles as a person, and enjoyed learning so much about the yoga philosophy, in such beautiful ways. When I arrived I didn't think I would be offering yoga classes per se but rather just use yoga as a tool in other work. I will do so, yes, but I have also changed my mind and will want to offer actual yoga classes as well. Samyama truly inspired me and enriched my life in incredible ways, and I am forever grateful.

After months of searching which YTT I would like to do, I found the MYTTC at Samyama Mindfulness and Meditation Center in Ubud, Bali. I am sooo HAPPY I found the right place, their program, teachers, surroundings and food are great. People who are going here will find a big transformation within themselves, and will learn so much, not only Yoga, Meditation and Mindfulness, but a positive new beginning of the rest of your life! I just loved it, and my wish is to follow another MYTTC at Samyama!

This was an amazing training and I would recommend it and do it again. I feel like I got to understand and learn the true essence of yoga and meditation. It was challenging, strategic & overall and life changing experience. It took my yoga knowledge to the next level as well as knowledge on meditating, the chakras and energy.

This was a very humbling and connected experience put on my amazing people that deliver the educational content and practical content so efficiently. I was immersed in the experience and when I got home I didn’t want the journey to end. It has made a profound impact on myself and I look forward to being part of an amazing community and future training with Samayma.

If course the location is amazing but they made the journey extra special with full days dedicated to each chakra and the 3 day silent meditation retreat worked in made it unique and gave more hands on knowledge than many other options.

A wonderful course from teachers who clearly love teaching and yoga. I came away from the course feeling a deep knowledge about not only the material but also myself, which has given me the confidence to deepen my practice and keep learning and improve as a teacher
