Uttarakhand (English: /ˌʊtəˈrɑːkʌnd/), officially the State of Uttarakhand (Uttarākhaṇḍ Rājya), formerly known as Uttaranchal, is a state in the northern part of India. It is often referred to as the Devbhumi (literally "Land of the Gods") due to many Hindu temples and pilgrimage centres found throughout the state. Uttarakhand is known for the natural environment of the Himalayas, the Bhabhar and the Terai. On 9 November 2000, Uttarakhand became the 27th state of the Republic of India, being created from the Himalayan and adjoining northwestern districts of Uttar Pradesh. It borders Tibet to the north; the Province No. 7 of Nepal to the east; and the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh to the south and Himachal Pradesh to the west and north-west as well as Haryana on its south-western corner. The state is divided into two divisions, Garhwal and Kumaon, with a total of 13 districts. The interim capital of Uttarakhand is Dehradun, the largest city of the state, which is a railhead.

Om Shanti Om Ashram is a wonderful place to get to know the roots of Yoga, to learn in a practical and easy way, to connect with yourself, to have amazing teachers (many thanks to Dinesh, Jitender, Kanna and Kamal) and to be surrounded by like-minded people from all around the world. It is situated in a village between many other Yoga Schools and cafés with a breath-taking view to the mountains and a few minutes away from the banks of the holy Ganga and some small shops. The whole team consists of endearing, helpful, funny and wise souls who take great care of the ashram, its facilities and their students. It is perfectly organized thanks to lovely Priya who helps with any questions or doubts. The ashram is very neat and clean. Food varies from day to day and will give you a taste of India. Breakfast is the best! Very happy to do my first TTC in Om Shanti Om Ashram and I hope it won't be my last visit to this spiritual place. I'm sure everyone who will go there will take their own lesson for life and a piece of the spirit with them, no matter why you came and how long you stay. Thank you so much for this wonderful month!

If you're looking for an authentic yoga teacher training experience, I thoroughly recommend The Nada Yoga School. I chose the Nada Yoga (Yoga of Sound) program which not only provides in-depth training in asana, ayurveda, pranayama, shatkarma and yoga philosophy, but also Nada Yoga: bhajan, kirtan, mantra chanting and music lessons (harmonium, sitar, tabla) taught by extremely accomplished Indian musicians. What was particularly special for me was the humble authenticity of the teaching. Not only was each teacher professional in his and her respective field, they each drew upon their extensive life experiences which for me, provided deep learning that you simply cannot get in the western world. Expect to receive a taste of the cultural context of yoga in its broadest sense (not just asana), expect to unlearn, expect to be challenged and expect to come away thinking "why didn't I do this before now?" Accommodation is typical of an ashram but comfortable (bedroom, living room, shower with hot water). Three sattvic meals are freshly prepared each day which were another highlight of the experience. Fancy a regular masala chai? No worries, there's a roadside vendor by the school gate who makes it fresh for just 10 rupees. Delicious. Afraid you'll miss the odd cappuccino and croissant? Worry not, as there are a few 'German' bakeries just 10 mins walk or so away! The only downside for me was the 200 hour training passed much more quickly than I would have liked and if ever a 300 hour program becomes available I'll certainly be back like a shot. For me, this was an outstanding experience and if you're reading this far, I suspect the Nada Yoga School is meant for you. Namaste.
