The city’s vibrant energy serves as a catalyst for personal growth, inspiring practitioners to find inner peace amidst the hustle and bustle of urban life. In Mumbai, every corner holds the promise of a new experience, whether it’s practicing asanas on the serene beaches of Marine Drive, meditating amidst the lush greenery of Sanjay Gandhi National Park, or delving deep into yogic philosophy in the heart of the city.

What PEOPLE SAY
ExcellentBased on 108 reviewsVarsha Dodeja2024-05-20This is genuinely coming from the bottom of my heart and as honest as possible, so my experience and learning of Yoga before coming in contact with Sayujya Yoga was that - Yoga is much more than just physical poses and stretching exercises. Yoga is a way of life not just on the mat but off the mat as well. I was actively looking for an institution in Mumbai for a TTC that imparts the knowledge of Yoga in its authentic form and resonates with the profound wisdom of Yoga in a manner similar to my own connection and appreciation for the practice. After evaluating and visiting several well known yoga institutes in Mumbai, I discovered Sayujya Yoga’s page through Google. I was thoroughly impressed to find that their approach to teaching aligns closely with my understanding and study of yoga. This includes aspects such as philosophy, Bhakti Yoga, Mantra chanting, Pranayama, Mudras, Anatomy and much more. I enrolled for a 200hrs TTC (11th Batch) with Sayujya Yoga and I think this was one of the best decisions, immense gratitude to Hardik Sir and Prutha Ma'am who patiently taught us all the concept of Yoga from Philosophy, Asana, Anatomy to Functional approach towards asana’s keeping in mind the human body of the modern time Pros : 1.Very in-depth sessions and with a detailed explanation. 2. Prutha Ma'am and Hardik Sir bring a wealth of knowledge and wisdom they have acquired over the past decade. 3. They love sharing their learning and experience so that their students don’t repeat the same mistakes. 4. The location that was selected was centrally located and very convenient to commute 5. Very reasonable in terms of the cost and 6. The entire 200hrs TTC module/Structure was very well planned, everything was systematic and well organized. Cons: 1. I find it difficult to identify any disadvantages associated with this program. The only possible downside is that one may miss the opportunity to participate in it. 😊 May the light of Yoga continue to shine brightly in my life and yours, illuminating the path towards greater peace, happiness, and fulfilment. Hari Aum Varsha from Batch 11 (Mumbai)Anita Joshi2024-05-19I just completed the 200hrs TTC with Hardik Sir and Prutha Mam at sayujya yoga Mumbai. They both have very depth knowledge of their field, down to earth and very nice people. I think this is my one of the best decision to learn yoga with them Thanks a lot 🙏🙏🙏🙏meenal n2024-04-13Liked the classes and TTC program. Hardik Sir and Prutha Mam pay attention to the students needs and queries 🙏🙂Lucy Rutherford2024-04-10I have taken my online yin yoga course with Sayujya. I highly recommend this course , I learnt a huge amount and loved the one hour yin yoga practice. The course is set out well and very clear to follow. Great teachers. Thank you 🙏The Science Orb2024-04-08Dear Prutha Ma’am and Hardhik Sir, Thanks for sharing your immense knowledge and giving very good yin sessions. Both philosophy and alignment classes were interesting and easily understandable. All the doubts in the classes were cleared with proper explanations. Learnt so many new concepts. Wish to learn more from you both. You both look perfect and compliment each other so well and are very professional. It was pleasure to be part of this Yin Family💝Radha Bisht2024-02-21I had a great learning experience with sayujya yoga . (Course name - Sthirsukham asanam) I learnt how to use props without taking any risk . about different movements of our body . And what is the science behind every movement of our muscles, joints , bones structures etc. Hardik sir is great teacher , great listener . He listen to everyone's problems and try to give the best solutions . With sayujya yoga I got to know the real yoga and how we should treat our body. Thank you 😊Marko Stott2024-01-28My 200hr Yoga Teacher Training with Prutha and Hardik was a fantastic experience and completely changed my perception of what Yoga is. They are both great teachers but what stands out is how committed they are to doing a thorough job, really going into the detail, whether that is in the yoga philosophy, understanding anatomy or the importance of adjusting each asana position in line with individual body types and skeletal systems. Between them, they cover everything with precision and detail but then also show how it all interlinks - which is a real benefit of having a couple as teachers. I've heard from several other people taking YTTs and none of them have sounded as thorough, or comprehensive as this one. Prutha and Hardik are also great fun, we laughed a lot in lessons and spent some very happy times together. Thank you, Pruthaji and Hardikji, and hope to see you again one day.Felicia Marcano2024-01-15Das 200H Yoga Teacher Training, welches Hardik und Prutha in Kooperation mit Kashish Yoga in Palolem ausgerichtet haben war wunderbar und eine super lehrreiche Erfahrung, die ich jeder Person empfehlen würde, die nur ein bisschen an Yoga interessiert ist. Ich hatte Anfangs die Sorge, dass ich vielleicht nicht genügend Vorwissen oder eigene Vorbereitung hatte - aber das war gar nicht nötig, denn Hardik und Prutha führen einen strukturiert, aufeinander aufbauend und logisch durch die Yoga-Philosophie und grundlegende Asanas. Wir waren eine kleine Gruppe und hatten dadurch genügend Zeit für all unsere Fragen, die Hardik und Prutha mit viel Geduld, Wissen, stets freundlich und motiviert beantwortet haben. Außerdem haben wir zwischendurch auch tolle Ausflüge gemacht, die mir viel Freude bereitet haben. Großes Dankeschön nochmal Prutha und Hardik 🤗🙏🏽🕉️anne verheecke2023-12-21Truely excellent 200 hour YTT in Goa, thanks to 2 exceptional teachers, Prutha and Hardik.the most important message: yoga is so much more than just asanas. Sure, we spent time on those, but with a functional approach, not an Instagram approach. Every day we did chanting, pranayama, yoga anatomy, fysiology, philosophy, teaching methodology. The nice thing about having just 2 knowledgeable teachers for ALL these subject, is that everything got seamlessly integrated and started making sense. I feel that this YTT has made me a better person, and has given me a push on my yoga journey. Thank you! 🙏
