I recently attended the 8 day Himalayan hiking retreat and I'm blessed to have Kuldeep as my
guide and yoga instructor for this experience.
It's very clear that Kuldeep wants to get to know his students better so he can help them
achieve their goals for the retreat, as evident from his first interaction with me when he
picked me up from the airport and had a conversation to understand my intentions for this
retreat.
Even though I was the only person attending this retreat, he went ahead with the programme
which shows how genuine he is in helping the people who applied for this retreat seeking
guidance and clarity, and I'm very grateful that he did as my experiences were much more
fulfilling when you have someone sincere and knowledgeable assisting you in this retreat.
Having a well planned programme definitely helps ease the worries for anyone who doesn't
have the time to plan their own itinerary, and I would like to thank the staff at Auro
Valley Ashram and Mystic Kailasha for their work in running the places well for their
visitors.
I would strongly recommend anyone looking for an escape from the chaos and complications of
their lives to have this incredible experience with Kuldeep and his team, and will look
forward to coming back during the winter for another meaningful memory.
Thank you Kuldeep and have a blissful and blessed wedding!
The yoga teacher training at Atharv Yogshala is truly one of a kind. Nestled in the heart of
nature, the peaceful surroundings create the perfect space to connect with yourself and
focus on your journey. The training is not just about becoming a yoga teacher – it’s a
transformative experience that brings incredible personal growth, whether you plan to teach
or not.
The teachers, especially Kuldeep, Isabel, and Hugo, put so much effort into making every
part of the training meaningful and accessible. Even as a non-native English speaker, I felt
supported every step of the way, and completing the course in English helped me grow not
only in yoga but also in my language skills.
The accommodation was so clean and comfortable, the food was absolutely top-notch, and the
sense of community was truly special. Everyone grows together so quickly – it felt like
being part of a family. I’m so grateful for this life-changing experience and couldn’t
recommend it enough!
I just finished my wonderful 8 day retreat with Kuldeep and had the most wonderful
time.
He's been very kind from when he picked me up from the airport, so knowledgeable and always
happy to share his experience and his views, not to mention he agreed to host me on my own
as no one else booked at the time for which I'm very grateful.
Yoga combined with hiking in Himalayas and spiritual talks and teachings, I couldn't have
asked for more! It's been the most valuable time with the most wonderful scenery! Meditating
on a mountain with a 360 view of Himalayas is the moment I'll never forget. I feel very
blessed to have witnessed Pandav Nritya celebrations in Makku village.
Also very grateful for introduction to the culture, all the temples I have visited and
divine energy I have experienced, yoga teachings and answering a million questions that I
had.
I am forever grateful for this experience and would recommend this retreat to anyone!
Namaste Kuldeep 🙏
Kuldeep Ji was our amazing, motivating and passionate hatha, anatomy and teaching
methodology teacher during my 300 hours yoga teacher training in Rishikesh. His deep
theorical and practical knowledge (including ashtanga, iyengar, yin, vinyasza and various
yoga styles), his professional attitude, his perfect adjustments and alignments, were
incredibly helpful and inspiring to make the most out of classes and to discover a deeper
level of practice and connection with oneself.
Sharing with us not only his
knowledge, but thoughts and experiences too, I can be just very grateful that I could learn
of him. One day at sunrise time he also acompanied us to visit together a local temple that
is important and beautiful venue and part of the local hindi culture. Thank you very much
Kuldeep Ji. Wish you the best. Namasté 🙏🏾❤️
Hi all!
I was lucky to learn from Kuldeep Ji on the 200 hour YTTS course.
Kuldip Ji is a teacher from God who shares knowledge about yoga with passion. Very wise,
energetic, sensitive, attentive to all students. Together with him on the course, we
analyzed in detail asanas, sequences, methodology, which I use in my practice and already
with my students. We analyzed in detail the cleansing practices: sutra-neti ...
Thanks a lot to the teacher for the feedback on the practical exam.
Great satsangs were with Kuldip!
How lucky I am to be in India again, I will definitely come to his lessons! Thanks🙏
