This was the first thing I decided to do when planning my trip. I have never seen such great reviews on the Trip advisor for any attraction. I had high expectations, but Amit and his wife exceeded them on every level. They were so friendly and accessible. Explaining everything in perfect detail. He handed out sheets with all the recipes and detailed instructions, as well as an overview of the spices. A lot of good cooks can’t tell you why they cook the way they do. They learned from someone and never asked the science behind the rule. They know what to do, but they don’t know why. He can tell you exactly why you cook the aromatic spices in the oil, but add the flavor spices later. He can tell you how to tell if you are overcooking, undercooking, or just right. He knows much of the history of food. We asked a lot of questions and he answered every one clearly and fully. He even offered to accept our questions over WhatsApp if we got stumped when we got home. Amit let me shoot pictures and videos of our entire experience. It was a perfect afternoon. The class was very hands on letting us measure, mix, and cook our own pots. Sometimes if you study with a master, you feel later like everything was a blur and you didn’t really absorb anything. I left this class with a high degree of confidence that I can replicate the results in my own kitchen. That I can use his “Magic Sauce” as a jumping off place to create my own unique fusion dishes using locally sourced, seasonally ripe ingredients from my home in upstate NY. If you have food sensitivities, he spoke about substitutions to make vegan, vegetarian, or lactose free versions of the dishes. He explained each of the primary spices, what they are used for and how they can balance each other. He taught us the difference between aromatic and flavor spices and how to use them. Some, like black pepper can serve in both roles. He owns a spice shop and has crafted some special spice blends perfectly balanced for certain dishes. I have had this experience with Thai foods too. Sometimes the flavors are so complex that it’s virtually impossible to replicate the exact flavor when cooking family size portions. The measurements are just so subtle. Some of his more exotic spice blends contains 25 or more spices in a precise mixture. Even just to stock the discreet spices at home would be ridiculously expensive. His magic sauce is easy to replicate and is the building block that the more subtle flavors stack on top of. I was especially interested in his chai because my chai experiences in USA have often been disappointing. His chai is my favorite and the cooking technique foolproof. You can also get his perfectly blended chai spice, premade. I’m bursting with joy from the experience. I could talk for hours, but just go. You will talk about it and use your new skills for the rest of your life.

Suddha Anand Yogshala is a beautiful yoga school located in Ram Jhula on the banks of the Holy Ganga River. We offer 200 hour yoga teacher training, yoga workshops, intensives, yoga, ayurvedic spa and meditation retreats, as well as daily drop-in classes. Our goal is to provide students with a beautiful, peaceful, and nurturing environment where everyone can ebb and flow freely through the evolution of their personal yoga practice;an environment that encourages spiritual growth where students will feel inspired, comfortable and confident growing and advancing in their yogic practices. For us, yoga is more than just asana; it is a way of life. It is a simple, pure, conscious, healthy lifestyle that offers countless positive benefits and no ill effects. It is a way of life that encourages re-connection with our authentic selves. It encourages us to become present, to build awareness within the body and mind, to lose the ego, foster acceptance, and to detach from external stimuli. The yogic lifestyle teaches us to free ourselves from the mind noise that results in stress while developing a strong healthy body. Through regular practice of Patanjali's 8 fold path, ashtanga yoga, practitioners will find themselves free from pain and suffering. This is the end result after one has become completely present, physically and mentally pure, strong, and focused. It is our wish to share our experiences, wisdom, and knowledge of this ancient science with everyone who has a desire to deepen their practice. All of our inspirational teachers teach what they love, what they are passionate about, and they teach with compassion and always from the heart.

I'm just back from the 8-Day Chakra Cleansing Yoga Retreat with Om Sampoorn Yoga, and it was truly incredible. Yogini Elena and Yogi Vimal are very passionate and dedicated teachers. I entered the retreat feeling totally drained both spiritually and emotionally. Both Elena and Vimal took the time to hear my story and understand where I stood and what I needed. It felt like every class, every excursion, every moment was tailor made by those wonderful people to help me shift my perspective towards a more holistic approach to life. Vimal's early morning - and highly energetic ???? - classes taught me that one's perceived physical limitations are merely mind-driven. He guided me towards understanding the value of 'now' - and how carrying emotional baggage from the past hinders opening up to wonderful experiences that the universe is continually offering us. Elena introduced me to the beautiful world of Devas and divine manifestations, and how we can learn to seek and maintain their support to gain spiritual healing and strength. My wonderful teachers also provided a wealth of knowledge on mantras, meditation techniques, japa chanting, both in class and during highly enjoyable excursions to temples, aarti ceremonies, sunrise viewing, an unforgettable visit to a Baba in the jungle ????, and the highlight of my trip: a Ganga bath ????. I stayed at the Yoga Niketan Ashram during my retreat and it was the perfect setting. Simple, but beautiful and very clean and organized. As a result of Elena and Vimal's guidance, I've revamped my spiritual and physical practice, and I'm gradually making shifts in eating patterns and day-to-day habits that will help clear my energy paths. I can't thank them enough and I'm highly looking forward to my next visit, hopefully in November 2020!
