I just completed the I AM Yoga Nidra Professional Training. It was an amazing experience. The quality of the course and... all the teachers are indeed outstanding. The teachings are a blessing and the clarity with which they are shared is just beautiful. True yoga the way it was meant to be.read more

This place is the real deal. Gurudev and his daughter, Kamini, have spent their lives teaching and living yoga with... love, passion, and sincerity. If you are serious about understanding the practice of yoga, the techniques, the history, the theories, the philosophy any of their workshops will serve you well.read more

For the price, this is a nice place. The spartan rooms are comfortable and clean and the vegetarian food was mostly... delicious- heavy on the salt. We didn't come for a program, but rather to enjoy the yoga retreat and massage services, and beautiful property. Shortly before arriving I learned that we were not allowed to attend any of the yoga classes, the only yoga space was reserved for the weekend. They suggested as an alternative I could take a mat to the dock and do my own practice. If the weather was nicer that may have been an option. I didn't come to a yoga retreat center to do a private practice. At the very least I would have hoped for a side room or yurt or gazebo, but definitely expected to have the opportunity to attend at least one class during our 3 days. As an additional sour note, our rooms were across a highway from the main buildings, I would have loved a better path along side it rather than walking through mud and grass. Maybe some creative landscaping to block some of the noise from the local bar and dogs barking. I do have to say the nearby salt springs were lovely. Overall it seems a better choice to come here for a program.read more

There is something profoundly peaceful about the Amrit Yoga Institute, not just for discovering the inner practice of... yoga, meditation or that it's a nurturing place to do that deep inner dive, peeling back the layers of daily life in "the big city" in order to reveal our true nature. No matter what your background or belief system, the moment you step onto the grounds, you can feel the reverence and a hush falls upon your shoulders. You are in the heart of the Ocala National forest, embraced by towering trees, plenty of wild life including the hooting owls at night ... I encourage anyone who has a desire to know the Divine within, enter and explore.read more

This is truly one of the most beautiful piece of property on the planet. Situated right on lake Kerr. Many places to... sit and enjoy the gardens, butterflies, and other wild life. Peaceful and enjoy sacred silence from 10 p.m. until 9 a.m. The programs are thought with a heart centered perspective from well educated individuals. The food is phenomenal đź‘Śread more

The teachings of Amrit yoga have transformed my life. Through the Amrit method of yoga therapy I was able to heal from... 20+ years of major depression and anxiety. The trainings offered are profound and take you to the truth of who you are. The Amrit Yoga Institute is a sanctuary of peace and healing. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to make true transformation in their life.read more

Simply the most profound training's I have ever experience. I am so grateful for the teachings and learning the ability... to live more free and outside of my pre-programmed habitual past. I have stopped doing so many of the things that I habitually did because it was what everyone else was doing, or because it was socially conditioned into me or because I was being driven by lack. I am now much more free to act in accordance with the natural intelligence of the universe! Thank you!read more

I had taken yoga since 2003 and thought yoga was about poses (Asana). I knew there was some pieces missing in Western... Yoga- but boy I did not know the pieces that were missing were basically the engine to the car. Amrit Yoga uses the Integrative Amrit Method ( I AM) which allows one to find and reconnect with the true essence of "I" The location is on a serene lake and beautiful place with a deer that comes up and lets you pet it. You rediscover yourself through these teachings and to have an original Guru be part of the teachings put this far and ahead of other programs. I would say if you want to learn more about you and to find the true state of bliss we so tern for go to Amrit Yoga.read more
