What Our Students Say
The first thought that struck me upon meeting Yogi Madhav is that he is an extremely special young man. There's a certain glimmer in his eyes that seems like it's only the shining surface of an ocean of knowledge and a soul beyond his years! He is truly incredible at Yoga and asanas and he is so inspiring in the way he teaches. He is the reason I can do a headstand which is something I never thought I would do. He has magic as a teacher and although he is young he seems wise beyond his time. I think every yoga student and teacher needs to make it a priority to learn from him.
I completed my teacher training at Yoga Ashram in India and am so thankful for Yogi Madhav's genuine caring and compassion for his students. Not only is he incredibly committed to his own practice, but also to his students. His approach is direct, thorough, encouraging and kind. He has the ability to read his students and push when it's needed. He has a great sense of humour and brings that to the class making for a difficult asana class seem not so difficult in the sweater heat of India in July. Thank you Madhav for an amazing experience you will always be my teacher.
I did the TTC in Cambodia and had the pleasure to have Madhav as my yoga teacher during this time. He was an amazing teacher, you can feel that Yoga is his passion. His Knowlege about the yoga philosophy and body is very big. He teached us all the important things about yoga in this short time. I felt very comfortable and save in this time and just enjoyed to learn about Yoga from him. It was one of the best times and I would recommend to everyone to go to a Yoga lession or TTC of Yogi Madhav. Thank you so much for sharing your Knowlege and passion with us!
I am very honored to have a opportunity of being a student of Yogi Madhav in RYT200 training. He is full of knowledge, intelligent , academic, very physically trained, caring, compassionate and very supportive to all students. Yogi Madhav’s teaching and instructions are clear and sharp, always purely essential. His guiding is very profound and effective in body, mind and spirit. Yogi Madhav has highest quality for all elements as Yoga teacher. I strongly recommend him to anybody who is looking for genuine quality and life changing Yoga experience.
