I’ve had an amazing experience on my 200hrs Yoga Teacher Training. Located in an incredible place, the ambience and teachings provided here are a perfect match for your yoga studies. Padma is a wonderful human being as well as experienced, charming and lovely teacher. All the rest of the team are perfectly qualified for an unforgettable training :)

Having a yoga vacation the previous year I attended Padma’s TTC. I was educated, and nourished.
I felt at home in Padma’s community, good to be guided by a woman who knows her yoga, and presented in a knowing way.
Since my return , I have excluded alcohol and meat from my diet, and am about to embark on ‘teaching seniors ‘ of my own age. ‘ if you can breathe you can do yoga’ do it at Padma’s

I did the 200 RYT course with the incredible Padma. This was a great course!! One of the reasons I chose PadmaKarma is that it’s the only female created and ran yoga shala in Kovalum. There aren’t many female ran RYT programs in India. It truly is whatever you choose to make it. The classroom is perfect! It’s open to the smells of nature, located in the tree canopy for a beautiful view and close enough to the water to hear the sound of the ocean. It is a very very short walk to all the shops and whatnot, so it feels somewhat disconnected from the busyness. My particular groups of classmates became very close and were wonderfully uplifting. The housing is comfortable and private. Honestly, the beach is so lovely that I didn’t spend much time in my room. The food is ayurvedic and healing. It can become very repetitive but it’s light, local and detoxing. Padma is a wealth of knowledge, she is patient and a great teacher. The curriculum she set up was wonderful and I feel very confident teaching now. Saju was endlessly helpful!! He made sure everything was done in a timely manner, helped with every little detail and was able to anticipate our needs. Arjun was the best! He provided a lovely afternoon class; he had a wonderful balance of pushing us to do more and knowing when we needed a lighter compassionate practice. Jinu will push you past anything you felt you were capable of. He is difficult but I learned a lot from him and will always be thankful for that.
Thank you!! I am excited to visit again as a volunteer or for a 2 week yoga vacation :)

After practising yoga for many years, I decided to made a YTTC to deepen my practise, I didn't know at that time if I would enjoy teaching (but I do !!).
I know India very well and knew that in some places, teachers are just pushing the body to make you realize the asanas.
What gonna be your teaching message if you learn how to push your body no matter what ?
This was definitely not what I was looking for and that is one reason I chose Padmakarma school, the second is because I know how it could be difficult for an indian woman to develop and succeed alone and I admire Padma for what she did with this school.
This woman is really a character : always smiling, humble, funny, caring, and so professional.
I made my YTTC in August 2017, in this amazing place in Kerala, close to the sea (so good to walk on the beach when your mind is wandering), with amazing teachers that really helped me crossing my boundaries (you know when your mind so : No you can't do that ! and your teacher with a word, a touch show you that you are able to do it at your own rythm). I am so grateful for the way they taught me how to treat, open up and listen to my body with my limits to go further more in my practise.
I try to teach my students the same way and they love it !!
For me Yoga is about kindness towards yourself and the others and I found here exactly what I was looking for.
That was, indeed, the most transformational experience in my life. The teacher training was physically and mentally challenging but also completed with Philosophy of Yoga, mantras and so much more.
Yoga is a path and this school will definitely show you how to walk on your own path.

.Een prachtige ervaring om samen met klasgenoten in Kerala te genieten van indiaas eten, cultuur, filosofie en vooral yoga, heel veel yoga. De guru (vertaald leraar) is Padma Nair. Zij is een lokale vrouw uit Kerala die ook in Europa is gewwest. Dit geeft haar een uniek inzicht in onze westers leven en denken en kan daarmee als geen ander een verbinding leggen met oosterse zienswijzen.
Ik zou zeggen: laat je lekker onderdompelen, geniet en ervaar :)

I did my 200-hour yoga teacher training here in January 2018. Even today, almost 2 years later, the transformational experience has stuck with me and shifted my perspective on yoga.
I wanted to go to India for a more authentic yoga experience so that I could learn the spiritual roots and traditions of yoga that are often overlooked in the west. Padmakarma certainly delivered. The teacher training was physically and mentally challenging,yet accessible for everyone, even those with only a couple years of practice. At the beginning of the program less than half of the students in my cohort could do a headstand, but by the end almost everyone could. Padma is incredible, authentic, humble, warm, and professional. I couldn't be more happy to have had her as my teacher. All of the other teachers are fantastic and experienced as well.
I had been practicing yoga for a decade before coming to this training, yet just one month here was more beneficial for me physically, mentally, and spiritually than several years of practice in the USA. I felt a sense of lightness and ability to view my emotions as a separate entity instead of getting caught up in them. I learned to relax every part of my body on command. I learned to feel the flow of energy in my body in ways I hadn't been able to before. I developed muscles that I didn't know existed in my body. And, thanks to the amazing skills of the teachers here, I was able to finally perform asanas that I had been trying to learn for years, including arm balances, headstand variations, bird of paradise, king pigeon, forearm stand, scorpion, and more. All of this in only a month!
As far as food and accommodation goes: The ayurvedic food is simple and delicious. I felt healthy the entire time I was here. The accommodation is basic but nothing is lacking. I wouldn't want anything different, because to me the simplicity is part of the yogic experience. This is a yoga shala, not a gimmick for westerners looking for a fancy vacation.
I would recommend this teacher training program to anyone looking for an authentic yoga teacher training experience in India, whether you actually want to teach after or just deepen your personal practice. There's something about this place that just feels magical, and facilitates magic to happen within each of the students that attend. I truly felt that during this training I got a glimpse of what yoga really is...I never experienced such an internal transformation in my decade of practice in the US, and I hope that others will find this shala so that they, too, can achieve new depths in their practice.

Padmakarma Yoga was recommended to me by one of my dear yoga teachers, back in Paris. I’ll never thank her enough ... !!!
This teacher training is, for true, the best thing that could have happened to me !!!
A team of thoughtful, committed, knowledgeable, genuine teachers, an amazing natural environment, a unique experience I shall recommend to anyone who wants to go deeper into his/her practice and start teaching.
I gratuated last August and still vibrate with this amazing, utterly life-changing experience.

The YTT 200 hours course at PadmaKarma was a transformational experience. I had been practicing yoga for a number of years, and knew that I wanted to deepen my practice by completing my training. I am by no means flexible, and at first I felt a little intimidated by the poses of a couple of my ex gymnast class mates, but through the non-judgement and acceptance of my teachers, I soon learnt to accept the limitations of my own body and to focus on what I can do rather than what I can't. Jinu is an exceptional teacher - at first his classes were tough, not just physically, but also mentally as he really pushed us to our limits (but never too far beyond). In contrast, Arjun had a much more relaxed approach and seemed to instinctively know when we were feeling tired and would tailor his classes accordingly. I absolutely loved learning mantras with Arjun, especially when he played the drum - it was really uplifting and he clearly had so much passion. The teachers complimented each other perfectly. The highlight of the day for me was always Padma's philosophy classes - she is so so knowledgable and when the exam came, I had the answers to every question and realised just how much I had learnt. Despite actively studying the vedas and sanskrit to a level of depth I can only imagine, Padma's approach was always down to earth and accessible interlaced with personal anecdotes and stories which made the classes really fun. I thought teaching my first class would be terrifying, but the design of the course eased us into it and by the time we taught a group class, I felt much more confident.
The important stuff: The food was delicious and healthy but there are plenty of restaurants nearby if you wanted to go out for food one evening or Saturday - I recommend Varsha and Annam. The accommodation was basic, but had everything I needed. The natural mosquito repellents are best - go to Lalu's organic shop! The taxi from the airport was waiting for me when I arrived. Saju, who manages everything, was extremely helpful and often went above and beyond to help us out. Padma has two adorable dogs - I had so much joy playing with Kanga the puppy!
This is not a luxurious retreat, but if you are after an authentic, local experience with deeply knowledgable, caring and passionate teachers and staff, then I whole heartedly recommend PadmaKarma.
