EXCELLENT Based on 253 reviews Posted on Rashmi Kalra Classes are incredibly good in Ganga Yogshala. The best thing I want to share is I am amazed to see the observation of the teachers individually on each student even in the online classes. Instructions are clear and detailed to apply easily. Every teacher is equally good and experienced. They have many batches in a day. So, we get the flexibility of attending any batch if we don't get the time to attend our registered batch (However, that should be done occasionally. Sticking to a one batch is more advised as the teacher can see your progress) Their classes has improved my teaching style and level also and my students clearly notice it in their practice. Getting Iyengar yoga classes from Ganga Yogshala is the best decision I have made.Posted on Carina Siems I tried many online classes throughout Europe and India and this is far the best. The session are fun and challenging, deep practice with focus, dedication and motivation. Abhishek and Mayank see every tiny mistake and explain clearly why and how to fix them which makes it easier to realize and avoid in future. I definitely recommend to everyone who wants to learn, improve and enjoy doing Yoga!! I’m very grateful for finding such excellent gurus🙏🪷🙏Posted on Vartika Mehta Excellent teachers, highly recommend these classes in case you want to deepen your practice.Posted on Dhwani Rathi The teachers are focused and amazing, details to small corrections in yoga asana and improvement of student's practice is a priority for them. With them, there is learning and growning. Thank you so much Ganga Yogshala for imparting your knowledge and making our lives healthier.Posted on poornima chauhan I’ve been practicing yoga online at Ganga Yogshala (apyogaindia) for a few weeks now. All the classes are conducted online by highly skilled professionals who are unfailingly polite and patient. They conduct 7 classes every day from Monday - Friday for one hour each - the first one starting at 6 am and last one ending at 6.15. In spite of the classes conducted online, the instructors don’t miss to notice and correct your postures. Every individual is given personal attention. The most important & best part is - you can attend any class throughout the day depending on your daily schedule. The group size per class is kept small to provide personal attention. Ganga Yogshala has changed my practice. I’m not only seeing measurable results, but I’m also feeling more energetic and focused. Practicing yoga 5 days a week has made my body more flexible and light. Looking forward to continue my practice and work towards a healthy lifestyle - physically & mentally. Overall, I would highly recommend Ganga Yogshala to anyone looking to start their yoga journey or existing yogis who are looking to deepen their practice and understanding of yoga. NamastePosted on Sandyalakshmi Pai I am doing online yoga classes with Ganga Yogshala for past one month, and the classes are excellent!!!! They are not so fast, not in a hurry to rush up the asanas, as a beginner I wanted to understand the asanas and then perform it... The online classes exactly providing the same. The master is noticing each n every member and correcting the postures. The complicated asanas are being taught easily by more preparation steps. Thank you Ganga Yogshala.Posted on Geetha Korampally Great Gurus! The queues in these classes have helped me fix the alignments and improve my practice. I am able to progress on my journey to strength and flexibility using these classes. I thoroughly enjoy practicing with the best gurus and always look forward to the next class!Posted on Malika Lal The practice sessions are really good, I liked Pooja ma'am classes and how she pushes and build mindset of not giving up. I was able to do few yoga poses which I can only imagine to do 😄. Thank you it was a great experience for me.Posted on Nagula Sravanthi I experienced a sense of lightness both physically and mentally. It was really a great idea to add yoga into my daily routine. I would like to thank Ganga Yogshala Team and the assistance of Tejaswini ji and also for being so flexible with the timings though I was never on time due to my busy schedule. Thank you.
