One year. 800 hours. 42 fellow students.
One path: Yoga Therapy.
🕉️
I’m happy and deeply grateful to share that I’ve completed the Therapeutic Yoga Teacher Training at Cikitsa in India.
It was a year of learning, practice and transformation, rooted in the Krishnamacharya tradition, from the foundations of Yoga Therapy all the way to our final case presentations.
What touched me most was learning to look at each person as a whole, body, breath, mind and life story and it changed the way I see my own practice and the people I teach.
🙏 Heartfelt thanks to Viji Ma’am, the guiding light of this program, who walked the entire journey with us, with patience, generosity and wisdom.
Thank you also to the teachers who enriched our path:
🕉️ Dr. Lata Satish – Prāņāyāma and Yoga Therapy through Psychology
🕉️ Smt Saraswati Vasudevan – Yoga Sūtra
🕉️ Smt Mamatha Thatalluri – Healing Chants
🕉️ Dr. Padmini Ranganathan – Ayurveda
🕉️ Dr. N. Chandrasekaran – bridging Allopathy and Yoga Therapy
And to all the faculty who shared their wisdom through case studies, discussions and practice.
☀️From chanting to āsana, from prāņāyāma to therapeutic perspectives, every day deepened my understanding and helped me grow as a yoga teacher.
The journey ended with a beautiful Certificate Ceremony, celebrating everyone’s dedication. ✨
Congratulations to all 42 graduates! Here’s to many more days of deepening, healing and transforming together.
