Oceanic Yoga International - Yoga & Meditation Teacher Training in Goa 254 Google reviewsPosted on ResaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did a one-week retreat with a focus on emotional healing at Oceanic Yoga. For me, the yoga, as well as working with other physical and mindfulness techniques, was a good way to access my emotions and feel them more clearly. The program also included breathwork/pranayama, sound healing, different meditation techniques, and inner child work through conversations. After this time, I really feel like a changed person in a positive way. I was able to find a new approach to negative feelings and patterns that have been with me for a long time, and I can now deal with them much better. It was very intense work on myself that I was able to do through my own strength in this place. However, I am convinced that the atmosphere and the people there made this process possible. Through the calm of the beautiful, pristine nature, the yoga, and the healthy food, I had the impression that my body became more rested, healthier, and stronger very quickly. I came into a deep sense of calm and presence that I otherwise only know from longer meditation courses. All teachers worked with a truly kind intention to enable the most helpful experience for each student. What was special about the teachers for me was that they truly practice what they teach. They have done a lot of work on themselves, looked deeply inward, and practice mindfulness, compassion, and yoga. I have the feeling that they have engaged deeply with the wisdom and spirituality of India. Prassad taught Ashtanga Yoga with a great depth of knowledge, a small ego, and in such a sensitive and calm way that the asanas could be practiced mindfully, meaning in connection with one’s own body. Jason and Sami guided sound healing and meditation with clearly felt passion for these topics. Kalu and George, as the leaders, shaped the loving, spiritual, and serious atmosphere of Oceanic Yoga and gave me the feeling of being a guest among friends. The atmosphere is familiar, for example because all teachers and students eat meals together. I felt very comfortable. Thank you very much for these deeply formative experiences.Posted on elena golovanovaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Oceanic Yoga - это какой-то чудесный оазис покоя в Гоа. Если свернуть с главной улицы Моржима и минуть десять топать через джунгли наверх, на довольно крутой холм, то окажешься у ворот школы, где за решеткой в лепестках цветов воскуривается какое-то благовоние. Дальше территория только для студентов. На горе, спрятанные среди деревьев, стоят с десяток стеклянных бунгало. Если по мосткам подняться на вершину, то там обнаружатся бассейн, главный зал-шала для занятий и ресторан. В ресторане три раза в день кормят студентов вегетарианской сатвической едой, адаптированной, с одной стороны, под европейский вкус, а с другой, удивительно аутентичной (для меня это, кстати, было поразительное открытие индийской еды -- я провела в Oceanic Yoga три недели, и блюда в буфете почти никогда не повторялись). Отовсюду открывается вид на океан внизу, каждый день, в любое время дня он разный. Над горой кружат орлы, обезьяны скачут по крышам ночью, на ступеньки лестницы вечерами выползают гигантские улитки -- это жизнь в настоящих джунглях, где чувствуешь себя частью природы. В такой атмосфере йога кажется самым естественным занятием для человека, от погружения в себя не отвлекает вообще ничего. Я не училась на йога-тичера, у меня была собственная программа, включавшая ежедневную йогу и медитацию под поющие тибетские чаши, и это было чистое наполнение энергией... Незабываемый опыт.Posted on Erika RichterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I attended a 10-day Emotional Healing retreat and it was a truly fabulous, authentic, and deeply transformative experience. I enjoyed it very much, learned so much, and it exceeded all my expectations. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and caring. The property is beautiful, the accommodation is excellent, and the food is outstanding — varied, healthy, and based on Ayurvedic principles. All the teachers are very authentic and knowledgeable, and the center itself feels very traditional and genuine. I can highly recommend the Emotional Healing program and am extremely satisfied with my experience. A big thank you to the hosts, and sending my warmest regards.Posted on Natalie BrollTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The housing is really nice, with wonderful people to meet. Beautiful view, a peaceful swimming pool, and delicious sattvic food! I also went through deep emotions and genuine healing thanks to my meditation teacher. My initiation into yoga and sound healing was truly special - something I will carry with me forever. This place is a gem, a spot I will never forget.Posted on Rebecca TimmsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really brilliant, the whole team are really great, fun and kind, George and Kalu are always there for you, and teachers are just incredible. Beautiful, special location overlooking the trees, sea, sunsets, and food is delicious. Lots of thought has been put into making everyone feel they can focus on what they need to, with great company, in a beautiful spot.Posted on Rob LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

At the beginning of November I’ve had a pleasure to take part in Yoga Retreat in Oceanic Yoga 🇮🇳 My stay there helped me find peace within me 🧘🏼♀️ All yoga practices taught me so much - each class was so special, teachers there are so dedicated, thoughtful and experienced! I am very grateful that I could meet each of you and have the pleasure of attending your classes 🙏 The surroundings of the Ashram are breathtaking! Meditation with sound of the nature was so enjoyable 🫶🏻 However, it could not beat sound healing classes ❤️🩹 Thank you all for the greatest experience of my life! Hope to see you soon ❤️Posted on Pravin KeraiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did a 7 day yoga retreat and had an absolutely amazing experience at Oceanic Yoga. The location is stunning—it’s perched on a hill within trees and vegetation and incredible views to the ocean. It's tucked away enough to feel peaceful and quiet. The facilities are clean and comfortable and the vibe of the school is so supportive. All the staff are warm and welcoming, and the vegetarian food was healthy and delicious every single day. The yoga classes were the perfect balance of challenging and restorative. The teachers are very knowledgeable and encouraging. Its the perfect place to disconnect, recharge, and deepen your practice. It truly felt like a home away from home. I left feeling confident, inspired, and part of a beautiful community. I would highly recommend!Posted on Justyna WróblewskaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Beautiful place, people and energy. I followed the 200h hybrid yoga course in Oceanic Yoga in October and it was nothing short of amazing and inspiring. The teachers were professional and dedicated, the food was wholesome and delicious and the classes and energy will stay in my mind as the loveliest memory. It's intense, but I felt stronger with each day of practice, which kept me motivated. Highly recommended to everyone who wants to deepen the practice and discover yoga on spiritual levels.
