Why should I do this course?

At Akhanda Yoga Institute, we believe that the Yoga tradition should be available to all and that these ancient teachings are worth preserving so that the countless benefits can be optimized.

Our world-renowned institute delivers the highest quality of trainings under the guidance of Himalayan Yoga Master, Yogrishi Vishvketu. This allows students to gain access to wisdom from the oldest lineage within the great yogic system.

The Akhanda approach considers a whole and complete attitude towards the exploration of Yoga, moving beyond the typical physical practices and into the areas less addressed within the modern Yoga community.  This thorough method allows students to be more efficient, wholesome, and authentic in their learning whilst uncovering ancient gems to enrich and support their holistic wellbeing with greater effect.

Move deeper through carefully curated classes consisting of a balance between asana, pranayama, meditation, Soundwork and philosophy, meeting your needs on a holistic level. 

The classes are specifically designed to support mobility, immune function, respiratory wellness, good quality of sleep, emotional wellness, and spiritual inquiry. 

It allows the unlocking of one's hidden potential by strengthening intuitive connection which then supports people to move through life with greater ease.
