We chose Rahul's cookery class after seeing the reviews and are glad we did! We were able to be squeezed in as a group of 6 between two classes as we had a short time in Palolem, the class was fun, relaxed and we learned a lot - we will definitely be recreating the recipes we learnt at home

Absolutely authentic and raw. This is a place where yoga is treated for what it really is and has been for centuries, and not just a pretty workout for pretty Instagram photos. Krishna Baba is a traditional yogin and healer of brahmin lineage who has spent his life traveling across India on his spiritual journey - this quality is unique and makes this whole experience absolutely special. You feel his experience and that special way of understanding life in the way he teaches, the way he runs healing ceremonies and the way he tells his stories - and by being part of this retreat you're welcome to stay close to all this by not only joining the fantastic ashtanga! and hatha yoga classes and ceremonies (daily sound healing or reiki or mantra chanting), but also joining the real life: cooking, evening stories sharing, etc.. I can't imagine I could have found a more authentic and raw place in the whole of Goa. It's not all postcard beautiful (although yoga terrace on the rooftop with the view of the forest is stunning!) and tip-toe organized here, but the power of authentic learning to tap to is massive.

Highly recommend the classes for everyone-adavnced and beginner practitioners alike. I have done a lot of yoga classes and if you are looking to learn amazing adjustments, breath connection with movement and a lot of kundalini mixed with ashtanga, then this is the class for you. The location of the shala alone is a good enough reason to do the class. Opening your eyes to te ocean after meditation at the end, you will love it.

I have suffered with various neck and shoulder issues for many years (whiplash, sitting at the computer etc) and feeling very stiff. Ranjeet pinpointed all the problem areas (pretty much everywhere!) and over a series of massage sessions worked deeper into the problem areas. I have had many massages over the years all over the world but this is completely different. It can be quite uncomforatble but 'no pain, no gain'. If you allow Ranjeet to work deeply into the tight areas you will feel the benefit. I am already wondering when I ca go back for more sessions (every other day, to allow your body time between sessions). Ranjeet is coming from a physio background which helps him target and understand the body. I practice yoga and he suggested asanas that would help me. I can not recommend him enough. It is worth the money - don't fall for the 'cheap' offers if you want to feel real longer term benefits. Located in a clean room behind Neptune on Palolem beach.

The best Yoga class in Palolem, Goa. This is very traditional Hatha delivered by a very knowledgable and professional teacher. It is incredibly rare to have the opportunity to take part in this type of class as these days most 'yoga' is dressed up in fancy clothes, doused in western chill-out music and delivered to a mass audience by western teachers. The Class....Warm up, sun salutation, asanas, pranayama and meditation, the classes flow very naturally in a calm and therapeutic way The class is great value meaning I could go every day!! Also, although he doesn't advertise it, Shiva has a great knowledge of Aryuveda and helped me with a couple of things while I was attending his classes.
