I purchased a package of courses over a year ago, but the courses I purchased have never been delivered. Others have, of questionable quality. I don't know why the Yoga Alliance allow this school to be registered with them, the school and courses do not meet the standard set out by them. If you just want a certificate with little effort, this is a good choice, but if you want to learn and actually care about yoga and your students, it is not. The man in charge is manipulative and rude as well. He can be quite aggressive in tone. Yet in the way we have seen over and over again in the yoga world, many follow, unquestioning, and defending him. It is worrying. Students who do question or provide critique - or who point out errors, flaws and inconsistencies in the school and leadership's messaging, are shot down which prevents other, like me, from feeling able to speak out. Avoid the school and pick another, and if you are a current student, widen your view and open your mind to more than the limited opinions of a manipulative leader.

Dear "Emma Climber", we are not sure why you would write this, we don't recognize you as one of our yoga teacher students. In our school, when people find things that can be improved, they volunteer with the many others to fix them. We are in this together. Yogamu has been founded to make teacher training available to everyone and to support people in need. Also we felt that there is a need for authentic yoga as taught in India. Two years ago during the deepest point of the pandemic we offered a bundle where a one time payment (of $199!) bought multiple trainings including a year of daily(!) live classes that we have been extended till today. The people who had enrolled into it, now enjoy 50 live classes per week! Many training programs have been delivered since then or are delivered as we speak and they are all included. Our (real) students know that they can just reach out to our support if something is missing or has to be criticized. Perhaps you could consider joining us and find out for yourself. We would love to have you!

This school misled and ripped-off at least several hundred students when originally starting up. Basically sold a bunch of people a bunch of courses at a great deal that still haven't been released over a year later. If you're looking for a "certificate mill" option, this a is a good choice, as it is eligible for Yoga Alliance registration, but doesn't require all of those bothersome things like actually doing 200 hours of training or doing synchronous learning or all that other stuff Yoga Alliance typically requires in order to get YA certified. If you're looking for a good yoga school sans a headmaster who financially takes advantage of students without any sign of remorse and plays messed up games, avoid this one. Yogamu doesn't have their own YTT. The Bhakti Yogshala course which they licensed for their use was developed during 2020, when YA standards were transitioning to online and far less stringent than they currently supposedly are. As far as updating with the financial information, I had purchased "multiple certificates in one package for $199" in December of 2020. Of those multiple certificates (6 total), only the one produced by Bhakti Yogshala was in existence at the time of sale. A very short (2 hrs video content and 11 pages of YTC handouts) prenatal course was eventually released late spring of 2021, but there was no certificate issued upon completion. No others that I purchased have been released. I've already explained to yogamu that I wasn't a fan of the contradictions in some of the classes, and that I found the misinformation and mispronunciations of the Sanskrit words distracting. Your Kundalini and meditation classes were not what I was interested in. They were not what I purchased. I would have been totally fine had I not wasted any of my time perusing them. You shouldn't sell people something, then fail to deliver, then be like "well look at all this other stuff I gave you that you didn't even want". It's called a bait-and-switch, and it's not an ethical business practice. I'm done emailing your support email, as simple questions have a way of turning into lengthy threads without being answered whenever I do that. I've got more productive things to do with my time. Maybe you should get on that as well.

Dear Mel, we are sorry that you are feeling this way about our school. You took at least 12(!) courses with us that we granted you in 2021 as part of the $199 one time fee (Meditation (200+300), Kundalini (200+300), Yin, Pre-natal and more). In your messages to us you praised the depth and quality of them. The yoga teacher training you completed with another school as you mentioned in your own review (in the second half of it). We don't fully understand your review and would like to invite you to write [email protected] and we are sure we can explain which courses you took, your testing scores, your participation etc and help you gaining a better overview of your many activities in our school.

I signed up for an 100hr meditation course last year for a small donation not really knowing what to think. I was blown away by content, live classes and support so decided to enrol onto monthly subscription where all courses are available. Since doing this I have completed the 200hr meditation, 200hr kundalini and now working towards the 300hr courses. Every day there are opportunities to join live meditations, yoga classes and lectures with wonderful teachers. The yoga teachers in Rishikesh teach with loving discipline- and are comfortable correcting you over Zoom to ensure you are practicing safely and effectively. I have learnt so much over the past year or so, and I’ve only just scratched the surface. Thanks to Yogamu, I have just begun teaching meditation regularly through my own business :)

I’ve been a student with Yogamu since December 2020. First, I started with 200 he Yoga Teacher course. Then I moved on to Meditation teacher 100hr and Meditation Teacher 200hr courses. Finished both of them and thoroughly enjoyed the structure and learning. Currently I studying the Kundalini 100hr course and plan to do the 200 and 300 hour. I’m receiving a well rounded education. I also will take the 300 he Meditation Teacher course. You can not go wrong with Yogamu! 💜🙏🏽💜

If you do the work, you will get a lot out of this training. The 1- and 3-star reviews here are truly unreasonable (Wanting a donation refunded? Trying to use an expired code? - these people clearly aren’t ready to become meditation instructors). Any online training requires extra discipline. Yogamu gives you all the tools, but it can’t do the work for you. There’s a wide range of videos, live classes, and written materials available and the price is more than reasonable.

I am so grateful that I found Yogamu. I have taken several of their programs & am currently enrolled in more. Between all the live classes, knowledgeable teachers, and wonderful community of students, this is one of the best online schools I've been a part of. Any time I've had any issues the support team has been quick to reply & solve my problem. I have learned so much & experienced such tremendous growth since staring my education with Yogamu.
