21-day Yoga Feedback


It was a great experience and helped me follow the routine to do asanas and pranayama for a life long journey of transformation. – Sushma Mittapalli
Excellent experience with phenomenal teaching. It is indeed a yoga immersion. Education to yoga, mindfulness, improvement in external and internal body strength. – Charmie Vin
After the holiday breaks, this program came at the right time to get back to the routine. Ever since I started attending your first 21 day yoga immersion program last year, I see a big transformation within myself in a very positive way. I hope to continue the practice and looking forward to the next yoga sutra program. – Sundar Kannan
My experience of this yoga immersion program was very enriching on so many levels.  From a physical perspective, I regained much loss of flexibility which naturally occurred after several years away from the practice.  On personal and spiritual levels, the immersion opened the door to renewed discipline and brought meditation back into my daily routine.  I deeply appreciated Subhash’s brief but very clear explanations of several verses of the Gita and of the Yoga Sutras.  The teachings contained therein are timeless and profound.  They teach us the ultimate purpose and goal of life and how to attain that goal.  Subhash is a wonderful teacher who is selfless and incredibly generous in sharing his knowledge with others.  The first take-away is the importance of a daily yoga practice which includes, asana, breathing and meditation.  This, in turn, brings up the second take-away which is discipline.  Having the resolve to wake up early on a daily basis without talking myself out of it.  The third take-away is to read a verse of the Gita or the Yoga Sutras daily to, hopefully, remain immersed in yoga thereby improving my overall state of mind. – Denise Bernier
Overall, I find the pace, variety and detailed instruction that flows in a timely way as  the class is in motion can only be led by an instructor with extensive knowledge and experience teaching. Subhash guides students through his “true” yoga courses rhythmically–“true” because each class includes asana, pranayama and meditation. To ensure safety, students are always warned to try but not push or go beyond their comfort level. Subhash often shares the benefits of anything we do in class which confirms repeatedly to me that I’m doing good things for my mind, body and spirit! The time to reflect on my experience during the class helps me to be more aware of any progress observed day-to-day which is very satisfying. This reflection is also valuable in helping me to remember how I might improve my strength, balance or flexibility in a given pose the next time. Subhash is more than a yoga instructor, a guru to those of us who have the opportunity to learn from him, but also a creator of community since he knows his students by name and family. – Penelope Gardner
“Great experience overall. This is my first time learning yoga and that too doing it for 21 days in a row. These 21 days have been more energetic, happy, calm and my focus has been improved in everything I do regularly. I am becoming more flexible and balanced by each passing day. Subhashji is an amazing Guru, he has a great command over what he teaches and has authentic knowledge of the ancient Indian wisdom. The sessions are taught in a very systematic manner focused not on just asanas, but including breathing techniques (pranayama) and meditation too. This helps in the balance of the mind and body. As each day session in this program is very unique and sometimes difficult, I was able to do it because of the way Subhashji teaches. He knows what exactly is happening in your body with each move/stretch, what should be the next thing to do, when you need to rest and when you need to push more at the same time not hurting yourself. After an hour and half session on each day, your mind becomes calm, body becomes more energetic and soul is happier and you will be determined to achieve exactly what you want to!” – Sphurthy Gangapuram
It was so good to return to your classes; I really enjoy starting my day with such a well rounded practice. You’re an awesome yoga teacher Subhash! Sharing your knowledge and including some of the sutras is such an invaluable experience. Thank you again, I hope to attend another immersion soon. – Peggy Selby
I felt really good each day after the session ended and had a positive frame of mind throughout the day. 1. More flexibility in the body after doing the asanas. 2. Bhagvat Gita verses help to understand who we are. – Sundar Kannan
As always I really enjoy these classes, the pace, the variety! Even though I have done it many times before I like the intensives :) – Ana Cardia
“Asana focused program was really good to see changes in body flexibility, strength and give platform to build on it for lifetime. The duration of 21 days is great. I also loved the specific body part/muscle focused sessions. With all the asanas we got helpful tips on what alternative methods we can use to not stress the body, all that is very helpful. I never used blocks and belts so far, but just got them knowing how helpful they can be. Overall great program, very well covers variety of asanas and their benefits. Really loved being part of the program and hoping to continue my practice with all that I learned from it.” – Sachin Sanap
Excellent! Subhash is a fantastic teacher and he is so knowledgeable. I couldn’t wait to get started every day with his class. It’s not a yoga class, it’s really about life. Loved the Bhagavad Gita at the start of class. Make it a habit, yoga is preparation for meditation, stress and suffering in the mind – Sugata Sen
I really enjoyed it & I felt so much better just days into the program…thank you for offering the online class! (1) Establish a regular practice, not matter how difficult it is to start, (2) do what feels right for your body, (3) don’t forget to meditate. – C J Nedic
It was a great experience learning Asanas and Pranayama and starting the day with great energy. – Ramya Gangadharan
Very positive Importance of all three aspects of yoga, Asana, Pranayama and Meditation. – Satish Penmethsa
The intensive was a rich source of well-taught asanas and deepening variations, pranayama, and excellent reflections on the Gita.  I feel my personal practice has been enriched and inspired. Especially enjoyed slowing Surya Namaskar down and holding the postures longer- I observed my breath calming and flowing with the postures.  Also, I was reminded to explore the cleansing kriyas and plan to continue with a few of them.  Thirdly, I thank you for offering us greater permission not to strain in poses…effort, not strain…because it’s so easy to get whipped up into the challenge of certain poses to the detriment of the body. – Janis Phelps
I was looking forward to the class everyday. Given the Pandemic situation we are in, the three week course provided a nice relief. My flexibility has improved measurably within these 3 weeks. Subhash Ji’s holistic approach to yoga provides a rich experience. Subhash Ji welcomes suggestions and gives every suggestion a careful thought before adapting or rejecting each suggestion. “Committed to yoga for life.I will devote more time to learning Bhagavad Gita.” – Venu Kadari
I enjoyed the course very much. What especially stood out for me was Subhash-ji’s deep knowledge of the asanas and ways to customize them to one’s own abilities, the comprehensiveness of the course (it included asanas, paranayamas and pointers on meditation) which really strengthened the mind-body-breath connection we seek in yoga, and the perfect, relaxed pace. For me, three take-aways are: (1) Yoga practice that only focuses on asanas is incomplete because pranayamas integrated with asana practice add a very important and calming dimension of breath control, (2) Understanding how we can include variations in the practice (e.g., in surya namaskar) and how the poses can be taken further as we develop our ability and strength keeps things interesting; and (3) Knowledge of how the different poses can help strengthen or relax specific parts of the body is important, so that I can create a sequence for myself, depending on which body parts I wish to focus on. – Anjali Mahendra
The 21-day Yoga immersion was a wonderful experience for me to participate in the daily yoga session with others in a zoom format, building a yoga community along the way. Subhash Ji was guiding us all throughout in a very graceful manner. He was aware of our physical limitations and alerted us not to overdo. This has developed that discipline to get up early in the morning and after the yoga session, we felt very energetic to tackle the days events. Venu Kadari alongside you demonstrating various asanas was an added advantage! Subhash Ji, you enhanced the yoga sessions with an appreciation of the various sutras of Patanjali during the 21-day journey. Finally, one can observe the constant struggle between the ego and the intellect can be overcome with daily yoga practice. Reading a shloka from the Gita and its brief commentary at the beginning of each session was inspiring and considered as ‘Thought for the Day’ – Prakash Devalapalli
Amazing! Established the daily routine, achieved flexibility and immense knowledge on yoga philosophy. – Archana Bajpai
Was very nice. By practicing Asanas, pranayam and meditation one can train the mind to become mindfulness. – Jyoti Mehta
I really enjoyed this 21 day; it strengthened my commitment to yoga and was a good refresher of some poses that I hadn’t included in my practices for a while! I also liked the addition of reading the Gita at the beginning of class!” “Yoga makes me feel good in all aspects! Dedicating a little more time for Asana showed me the importance of a well rounded practice for both mind and body. I am reading the Gita again and loving it! – Ana Cardia
Thank you Subhash for another great yoga experience. I did this intensive 2 1/2 yrs ago at the studio and this Zoom experience, while lacking the energy of the studio, was interesting, challenging and something to look forward to every day. You have a talent for keeping things consistent, but also introducing new concepts and sharing so much of your knowledge. I enjoyed the readings from the Bhagavad Gita and was even inspired to find my husband’s copy from his Eastern Religions studies so many years ago in college to explore further. And Venu did a great job as a demonstrator! – Gail Coles
It is very structured course and Asanas will touch almost all the parts of the body. Hip intensive, Neti pot usage demonstration and easy to setup home practice. I think we should do 5 minutes of meditation if possible. – Srikanth Venkanagari
This was a fantastic course. I had always been interested in taking this course but could not due to logistical reasons (kids, spouse’s travel). COVID-19 provided the opportunity to take this course online, and I am grateful for that. I have practiced yoga on and off over the years. This course gave me the knowledge to establish a home practice and the confidence that I could continue it sustainably. I am very grateful to Subhash-ji for putting together this course. – Bala Rao
It’s been va Great Experience !! Subhash ji a Wonderful Yoga Instructor . Looking forward to join Next session !! – Rakhi Saluja
Rewarding and Satisfying! “I am able to feel more flexible doing Yoga everyday. I like the fact that I can maintain disciple  by waking up early. My rest of the day feels very energetic and I accomplish more work with enthusiasm. – Priya Mahadevan
Very Good! Different Breathing techniques, practicing regularly, regular practicing sequence. – Subha Sridharan
Overall, my first yoga class was amazing! I struggled through several poses, but despite the difficulty, it was still fulfilling experience. … The qualities that I developed through yoga helped me to effectively reflect on the past few day. I can stay in the crisscross for long time without any numbness or pain. As I am obese, I lost 4 lbs despite taking regular diet! I got confidence that if I start doing little changes in the diet along with yoga, definitely I can loose weight and stay healthy forever!! ” Self confidence, focusing on breathing while doing yoga and pranayama, slow down, balance and most importantly accepting imperfections!! – Anuradha Tamada
Good! Postures, techniques and tips. – Øyvind Ellingsen
A holistic immersive learning experience where we practiced mind body spirit aligning practice through yoga pranayama and elaboration of theory of yoga. “Take time to practice what we learnt. Do it slow to let the body slowly stretch and reach the optimal asana position. Breathing focus on it and practice pranayama” – Lavanya Sridharan
Excellent!  Subhashji’s classes are life changing experiences to me! I love it and can’t explain in a few words! Have to experience it!! – Sajini Nair
“This has been an absolutely amazing and enlightening program.  I was not sure how the whole thing will work and how I would react to it but was astounded at the difference it made to my thoughts, emotions, knowledge, body with the activities over the 21 days. The class was just the right size and in a comfortable environment.  The style and the knowledge of the teacher (Subhas ji) was totally amazing.  The techniques taught helped me become stronger physically and emotionally.   It is easy and enjoyable and deeply powerful. Highly recommend the program to everyone who is open minded to different views and is committed in making a difference to oneself and is willing to giving it a go.” – Sridevi Kadari
Really enjoyed. I am convinced that this course has put me on the right path. – Venu Kadari
Very good. Loved the overall program content. It’s a perfect mix of yoga asanas, paranyama, meditation, cleaning techniques and philosophy. I saw an improvement in my body flexibility and energy level with the daily practice. I realized that I felt much calmer and happier through the day. I radiated more positive energy around and found an inner strength. – Susmita Gupta
“More than I had asked for from the program! My primary reason to attend this program was to learn pain-management. I have been suffering from chronic neck pain for the past 3 years. The tightness in entire body was relieved through yoga practice… loved the way program is designed — focus is on working out different parts of the body… and the difference can be experienced daily. This Yoga program was more of a spiritual journey for me. Learnt the importance of both body and mind in spiritual practice. This gave that needed balance and boost for my spiritual practice. Body feels lighter now. Neck pain seems more manageable and feel gradually it’ll reduce with daily yoga practice. Experienced many emotions / memories are stored in our solar plexus and it impacts our living in more than one ways we can imagine. Felt through yoga practice these emotions were getting relieved. Yoga nidra played a very major role in healing my mind at subconscious level. I feel more calmer now. Am more aware in situations and change the outcome to a more positive one unlike before. Feel Gratitude for the program and for the teachings of Subhash Guruji in making us more knowledgeable about Yoga and it’s benefits!” – Preethu Arvind
“My overall experience was just wonderful. When I was diagnosed with cancer in 2016 and started to explore holistic methods to heal and live, I knew I wanted to incorporate yoga as part of my lifestyle. But through your classes, and the 21 day program, I was pleasantly surprised to uncover so many more benefits in terms of calming the mind and being so much more aware of my physical body.You are so passionate about yoga and its philosophy that it makes you a great teacher and I like your “no-nonsense” attitude which helps us stay disciplined and practice yoga for the right reasons ” 1. The 21 day program proved that making time for yoga in the mornings ensures I have made time for myself at the start of the day and now I am cheerful and productive for the rest of the day 2. There are so many yoga poses and challenges for specific issues. For instance, I had instant improvement in my constipation after you demonstrated the technique to eliminate that. I’m so amazed and going to share this and other benefits with my family back home in India. 3. The guided meditation I received in your classes and audio has been the best experience I have had so far. – Deepa Rajamani
“Happy & Wonderful experience. Everyday I felt energetic. Early morning waking up was a drag but worth it. Your routine does some magic to Circulation System” Do not Delay learning Yoga Group of max 25 very helpful to stay motivated Your dedication to this community is very much appreciated – Anil Fulani
This 21-day Yoga Immersion was an amazing experience for me. The classes were challenging and informative throughout. I always enjoy Subhash’s teaching style in all aspects of yoga, and this was no exception. It was easy to wake up early every day knowing the class would be comfortable and I would learn something new, and feel good physically and mentally the rest of the day. Very motivated to continue this practice at home and appreciate the suggestions and tools Subhash provides for doing so. ” 1) Reinforced to me how valuable a daily, consistent yoga practice can be in all aspects of my well-being. 2) There is always a wonderful quiet energy in the room which immediately brings me to calm as I step into the class and stays with me long after. 3) Piqued my interest to learn more about yoga philosophy” – Gail Coles
I enjoyed the class very much. I am not stranger to Yoga and have practiced “asanas” off and on all my life. However, for the past several years I have been very lazy. This has led to obesity and increased blood pressure. This class has helped me jump start my asana practice. The class emphasized a good balance of asana, pranayama, and meditation. I plan to continue the class-regimen for foreseeable future. ” 1. Morning asana practice is quite suitable for me and sets a very good tone for the rest of the day. 2. The class was structured carefully and incorporated different aspects of asana, pranayama, and cleansing techniques very well. 3. Learnt several new variations of asanas and pranayamas. That was fun. The inclusion of Tibetan exercises was also lot of fun.” – Rajesh Selukar
I thoroughly enjoyed this class. It exceeded my expectations. The time of day was a challenge for me but I was able to move beyond that. Subhash, you are a wonderful teacher. You so easily and effectively share your deep knowledge of yoga in a way that is caring, encouraging and motivating. I feel so lucky to have found your classes. ” *After 21 consecutive days I more deeply feel the benefits of yoga in my body *I pushed myself (without pain) and was able to do things I did not know I could do *A renewed enthusiasm/motivation to make my yoga practice a daily priority” – Karen Hawkins
“Enjoyed doing yoga. I presumed yoga to be more physical exercise. But understood its completely different  and is more about the connect between body and mind. My Daily routine has improved  positively and can’t realize  the tiredness at the end of the day which  was usual earlier.” – Manoj Damodaran
I would like to express that I am going to miss the class and Subhashji teaching since today was my last day of 21 days programme. I discovered the true meaning of Yoga that includes 5 essential practices and not just aasanas. I just love his teaching techniques and the theoretical knowledge that are very important to have a understanding of Yoga as a whole. I cannot thank enough to Subhashji about his time and his dedication towards each student. – Mamta
Transformational, Informative, Spiritual. Interesting enough to make me get up early daily and I think this would be a lifelong habit for me. The routine is addictive and energizing. – Sivasundar
Awakening and total body transformation. Did yoga in the past but this 21 day journey was best as it got me into a routine of being me. Feel better in body and mind. – Nivedita
Subhash is a great teacher with deep knowledge in Yoga. I enjoyed his classes and learned a variety of Yoga techniques and poses. I did not notice any significant life changing experience either mentally or physically. There could be subtle changes that may be buried under my high expectations. But in all I am very glad I came, understood my strength and more so my weakness and for now I have the motivation to continue at home which I know will dissipate over time but then I can come back for another 21 day session. – Mitesh
Very good. Made a positive difference to my life and lower back pain. My back pain lessened after the 21 day program and the difference is felt when I wake up in the morning. Previously, I woke up with stiff back and now I am almost pain free in the morning. I will try and do at least 30 minutes every day going forward. – Prakash
“I found the 21-day Yoga Class invaluable. Subhash Ji is very knowledgeable in the field, and has a brilliant teaching style. The class was not just about coming in the morning, doing some Yoga, then going home and forgetting about it. Subhash Ji did a great job blending the Aasanas (physical), Pranayamas (breathing), Dhyana (meditation-introduction). He gave us a background of the concepts as and when he introduced us to the various areas & steps. He was very conscious about translating from Sanskrit to English as well, making no assumptions about where his students are from. He is also very conscious about the different levels people are at, and does not follow an aggressive style like some studios are known to, instead encouraging his students to do what they are comfortable with. If you are looking for a class where you can learn about Yoga in a safe and friendly environment with no judgement, I would highly recommend the Integral Studio where Subhash Ji teaches.” “Going for a class for 21-days does really get you started into a routine. I’ve been very encouraged to wake up in the morning and continue. Subhash Ji creates real-time audio recordings of each day of the 21-day class, and provides those recordings. I have found them invaluable while doing my morning Yoga at home, makes me feel like I am still going to class and practicing alongside Subhash Ji. Subhash Ji provides a lot of materials as well such as videos, DVDs, pictorial depictions of the Aasanas, and further explanations of the various areas. There is a wealth of supporting materials provided.” – Avinash Lakhiani
I enjoyed the program. Waking up early morning and doing Yoga in a group set up with experienced Guru like Subhash ji is great experience I want to enjoy frequently. Helps me keep my regular yoga practice at home more energetic with extra vigor. – Hari Chitluri
“Excellent! I am still learning but I can confidently say that this will change my life in a positive way. Changed the perspective on how to lead life. I think the fee is less when compared to the resources and positive energy we got our of the program.” “Time management, how to listen to body and take care of it. How simple changes in life can give you better way of living. The way Subhash ji teaches is simply awesome. I could not get the same feeling after I did yoga when I did at home.” – Bipin Gadi
Excellent! I was looking for gentle low impact stretching regimen to complement my meditation. Yoga was my first thought. I did not imagine that the asanas in themselves when done with awareness can be meditation. So ��. “Awareness makes asanas more impactful than achieving the perfect pose. Meditation is the heart of yoga practice. You have to practice to reap benefits.” – Sumathi Rajaram
The 21day Yoga Immersion program was very peaceful, relaxing, calming the mind and developing a deep sense of self-awareness. This program is not just asanas but it also includes meditation with yoga nidra, and pranayama with various breathing techniques, gives us a very good Yoga experience. Subhash ji is an amazing and experienced Yoga Guru, very rarely one can find such a Guru. He teaches us traditional methods of yoga and its very benefitting. “1. It strongly encourages us to practice Yoga with meditation and pranayama on a daily basis. I got a true yoga experience compared to any other yoga programs. 2. He has made every effort to provide all resources to his students to make it a ongoing practice, through his website, blog, youtube videos and audio links of the classes taken. Which helps us having a good reference to study more about yoga postures.” – Kanthi Kaligotla
Awesome experience. Was able stretch some parts of the body that I thought were not stretchable anymore. Will continue yoga at home and some classes. Integral yoga does help when we practice diet, yoga, mediation together. – Mohan Voora
Got motivation, energy and enthusiasm to come back to my daily practice. – Dhanalakshmi Muppavaram
I am a beginner to Yoga. The 21 day Yoga Immersion was the first time I ever learnt yoga asanas. I had a wonderful experience doing it under your guidance. I absolutely looked forward to attending it each morning. Learnt so much from these 21 days and so glad I decided to join it. Found it to be a wonderful experience and I wonder how I did not do it all these years. “Through this program I have had more of mental peace than ever. Got tremendous positive energy and vibes. This program has helped me be more organized and disciplined in my actions and Day to day routine. ” – Shraddha Chheda
“LOVED IT!!!! It was difficult to wake two hours earlier than usual and I had to rearrange my sleep schedule, but it was worth it for the way it made me feel. I felt more energized and alert afterwards. ” “Breathing techniques are important! Yoga is more than just stretching! Meditation is good for the soul!” – Anne Pippen
It is amazing, I am not early bird as most of them, without missing single session I have made 21 days – that itself a great achievement. I feel my body is very flexible and comfortable. I really liked the way Subhash ji focused on each part of the body everyday and the breathing technics. Throughout the session I have learned new poses and I got to explore my body (which I never did). Started thinking deep inside of myself than through mind. I am focusing on controlling Ego and anger. Subhash ji will provide all the resources to his students to help them continue the Yoga practice. He is really nice & simple person, I really enjoyed the 21 day session. Thanks you Subhash ji! – Rajitha Sree Vangara
Great experience overall. I am now familiar with many asanas and breathing practices which will help me to do these in the long run. “Benefits of doing asanas along with breathing can become a type of meditation over time of practice. – Chitra Ramanarayanan
I really enjoyed the class. I loved that it was calm and quiet. It was a nice way to start my morning. I’ve been doing yoga since I was a child but I’ve learned a lot of new things. – Debra Mehta
Subhash is a kind and gentle teacher. One of the things I greatly appreciated was his sensitivity with language. He never, ever said “If you can’t do this,” but always “If this doesn’t work for you, try this.” I always felt encouraged in his class and never felt judged. Also, I lost 5 pounds during the intensive! – Susan Mazzara
It was fantastic, energetic and informative. It made me rethink my priorities in life on how to lead a healthy, peaceful and mindful life. You have been source of authentic information on Yoga and it’s philosophy. Thanks for explaining the background and internal details of Yoga. – Shyamsunder Mutcha
It was a pleasent experience overall. I enjoyed doing yoga in a group. There was a positive vibe to it. Completing the 21-day program gave me motivation to continue it on my own at home. All the documents and links provided by Subhashji are helpful in creating your own routine. – Anushri Bhivre
I love these yoga classes, the 21-day Yoga Intensive is a wonderful way to help me stay in tip top shape with my practice! I enjoy the variety, the teachings provided, learning the name of the poses, everything about this program is great! I even like that it is so early in the day, it is perfect! :) – Ana Cardia
Great! I wondered if I would be physically able to do the practice 21 days in a row. I did, with no problems, so I am proud of that, and stronger too. I had much to do at home during the class and I had so much energy. I slept well too. When I got up early (for me) and came to class it was inspiring to see 35 other people did too. The discipline this requires was good for me and I feel much better about what I accomplish each day. I really liked the class. Repetition brings learning and understanding, for me. Variation brings interest and challenge. I never get bored with your classes even though I guess it is basically the same class. The variety keeps me inspired and moving ahead. Thank you for your incredible dedication to us. You are the best yoga teacher I have ever had, by far. This is a long journey and I have much to learn – it gradually seeps in! Even though I said the program fee was just right – the 21-day class is an amazing bargain. You seem to be reaching many new students. – Sherri Harmon
Subhash ji is an amazing guru. The 21-day yoga program is a great experience in my life. I learned so many things apart from Yoga. I got a chance to meet so many great people. Group discussions helped to learn from real time experiences. Breakfast meet is a wonderful time. The Yoga and Pranaayama/Meditation DVDs are awesome. – Nandu Konduri
Thank you so much for doing these courses. I really appreciate that you are so willing to share your in-depth knowledge of yoga. I had already established a daily yoga practice but wanted to learn more. I found that I missed my personal practice. More pranayam, more meditation, less or no alcohol Brenda Cleveland
Blissful!! I have enjoyed 21-day Yoga Challenge. I have learnt to do this asana in a better and perfect way. I realised that I have been doing these asanas without even understand it. I have deeper understanding of Yoga after attending this challange. I am truly hoping to continue doing it on my own. – Jyotsna Singh
This was my second 21-Day Yoga Immersion and as always it was great. It is a great learning experience on Asanas, Pranayama, meditation and all the theoretical knowledge that Subhash Ji gives. – Nishant Munjal
I try not to miss any of Subhash ji’s intensive classes. I enjoy the sessions every single time. I always learn something new each time from Subhash ji and my fellow students. The importance of a routine and a practice. – Bina Thakkar
This was my first time Yoga. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I came to very open mind to learn the yoga techniques. I loved the way everyday’s series went through and enjoyed the Subhashji’s teaching style. Sharing experiences with everyone got an understanding as most of us have same problem. Also thanks to Subhasji for keeping potluck breakfast at his house so we got to meet his wife and got to know more about the participant from this group. – Nissa Yusuf
“I had a great experience with the 21 Day yoga immersion. As a beginner to yoga, i was skeptical about finishing the whole course, but wanted to try out based on my friend’s suggestion and it was perfect. I have started feeling positive changes with in me both mentally and physically. Highly recommend anyone who wants to learn yoga in a no pressure environment.” – Sreeni Edula
“This program surpassed my expectations. It was the most well-rounded program I’ve ever attended, with a good balance of asana, pranayama, theory, history, diet, meditation, and discipline, in a fun and welcoming atmosphere. I drove 30 minutes each way, leaving my house at 5:20 am without missing a day, because it was worth it. On day 22, I continued my practice at home, but was a little sad not to be driving in to our little group for a great start to my day. I lost 5 lbs too!” – Teri Thomas
“My overall experience was wonderful as it was very nicely structured. I liked the concept of same flow each day with focus on a particular muscle group; and finally I loved the extra 30 minutes of Yoga theory/concept on Saturdays. This experience made me more disciplined and was the first step towards my overall goal i.e to gain strength and flexibility in my body.” – Nishant Munjal
“Awesome. Every class with Subhash is refreshing, and mind opening.” -Laurie Brummit
“Excellent! I enjoyed it. My day was longer when I came to classes. I used to have more time to do other works. I am more focused and less anxious when I did yoga. Thank you Subash ji.” – Divya Nallamothu
“Excellent! Three major takeaways: 1. learnt the correct way of doing all those poses earlier i used to do some of them in wrong way like when to inhale and when to exhale etc. 2. change in the lifestyle. because of the attended program i started getting up early which i never did in my life. (did not used to get up early even during the annual exams time) this program really gave me opportunity to change my life style 3. learnt some new variations in suryanamaskara. (i only know treditional suryanamaskara before) but with the program i got to know we can also do some variations.” – Shekhar Dontula
“I feel blessed to have found this class and to have had the good sense to participate in it. Subhash is very patient and encouraging without being demanding and pushy. This was my first real experience with yoga practices and I look forward to continuing the classes. My lower back pain is all but gone. While I still can not do all of the poses I am making progress and that is what is important to me. I also feel invigorated by the early morning program and have continued the practices. Also I have purchased the Yoga with Subhash DVD’s which have helped me maintain the momentum which we had with obtained thru th 21 Day Program. This has been an A+ experience. Every Senior I know should consider taking this class!” – Jan Sommer
“I thoroughly enjoyed the whole 21 day Yoga challenge. It was my first time at learning Yoga and I was not sure if I would like it or even continue and just wanted to learn something new. But when I was in the program doing the various Asanas, Pranayamas and the meditation practice, I realized how much of a positive difference I felt within myself and have decided that I will try to make yoga as part of my everyday routine. Even getting up early in the morning dint feel tiring, instead I had a new found energy for the whole day. The best part was Subhashjis calm demeanor and his instruction style. He never forced anything and said we should always listen to our body but he also made sure we were all doing the right poses and breathing techniques. To top it all he would take the time to make us understand about Yoga sutras of Patanjali or instances from various Indian mythical tales during the yoga sessions when we are really tired with certain asanas. This way we would get engrossed in his talk and not feel any exhaustion. I really believe Subhashji is the best person to learn yoga from in town. His Yoga sessions are so addicting and interesting that you will just want to keep continuing the session but alas it does come to an end after 21 days. I cant thank Subhashji for this wonderful program and how much of a positive difference he’s bringing to the community by holding these programs.” – Rashmi Nair
“It was very enriching both for the body and mind” – Salma Haque

I was really impressed at how the class always started on time. Each class was different which made the classes enjoyable.” – Rohini Rasa

“I enjoyed every moment. After taking a little break from yoga, this was a great way to get back into the habit.

I feel like that gave me an insight for dealing with my own stress, plus it is also a tangible leadership tool for getting the most out of employees without causing burnout.” – Amy Crawford
It has been a great expericence for me. I am now convinced yoga can releive me completly from my lower back pain if I continue and I really see a lot of difference in waking up early and doing yoga.

“I always look forward to these 21-day yoga classes with Subhash for many reasons. I have practiced yoga for over 20 yrs now and I find that this class provides me with the spiritual element that is often lacking from other teachers. Subhash really attends to all the students and to the very end gives feedback to students. His nature is very gentle and yet informative and challenging. I have noticed so many changes in both my body, mind and emotions. I give the highest recommendation for anyone to take the class. Subhash also seems to attract a very nice group of people to his classes and I always enjoy getting to know them.” – Joanne Healey
“I am extremely happy to attend this class. I have actually fallen in love with many Asanas. It is the wonderful nature of the class and benefits that I were getting, that motivated me to get up as early as 5 AM, which I always found difficult. My sleep patterns are improved and I am able to control my diet, but still there is a long way to go!” – Rajas Pimpalwadkar
“I have been running on a reasonably regular basis over the past 10 years.  However, I have started loosing flexibility and calmness in the mind.  My main purpose of  joining the program is to get the flexibility back, improve on breathing habits and keep the mind calm and peaceful.  My first day at the practice was tough, I could feel my muscles all over the body were tight .  Thanks to Subhash for  guiding me gradually into different Asanas and constant emphasis on breathing, I started feeling better after 3,4 days of the practice and I did not want to miss a single day after that.  I thoroughly enjoyed the company of the other participants in the program, they’re all excellent and spread the energy through out.  I appreciate Subhash’s introduction of Yoga Sutras and his experiences with concepts like ‘Tibetan Rites’. ” Rao Dasari
“Blissful Experience ! I was looking for a yoga program that would give me the necessary initiation and experience to come closer to my roots. I feel , Subhash Ji’s yoga program was the right path for this process. Seemingly complex and subtle concepts in the practice of Hatha yoga, become much easier when one practices under the keen observation and guidance of an experienced Guru. This program has helped introduce and clarify many of the basic essential yogic practices which can only be perfected through a daily routine of practice. Subhash Ji gives the right attention to everyone in the group giving tips to correct postures and introduces subtle variations . He has always been kind enough to share personal experiences and answer any questions the sadhaka may have. I hope you enjoy the immense health benefits this program has to offer.” – Tuhin Patel
“Energizing, inspiring, besides learning from an incredible teacher and a great team of like minded people. 1. Asanas are not easy, if you do them right. 2. Disciplined Practice can makes them easy 3. Subhashji’s passion for yoga becomes contagious by the time you are done with the 21 day program ” – Hemi Patel
I was able to explore my personal practice and I believe enhance my teaching. The discipline of a daily practice has brought new depths to my practice and I’ve truly enjoyed continuing each day with new and fresh awareness. I’ve always somewhat struggled with meditation and I’m actually beginning to look forward to my new found peace of mind. – Peggy Selby (yoga instructor)
My experience was one of inspiration that I can do a lot toward improving my own physical and mental health. I felt better after one week and so was very inspired to continue. I do have difficulty sitting in any cross legged position, so use a pillow at my lower back for support. I’m assuming that will get better with practice as I get stronger. – Susan Walston
I really enjoyed the whole session. It really helped me a lot . 21 day Yoga practice alleviated my knee pain. I got the discipline of getting up early in the morning. Lot of ther benefits like strength and flexiblity on the muscles. Mr. Subhash is very good for proper guidance and run the class without getting boredom. – Sridevi
Absolutely wonderful! I didn’t want it to end! :) I discovered how to “listen” to my body. Connecting mentally with the asanas during practice enabled me to better understand my physical state throughout the day. I realized that approaching yoga with a commitment to a daily practice resulted in my schedule changing in order to make my practice a top priority. I learned that yoga is not only about the asanas, but also about breathing, awareness, stillness, etc. coming together to create a harmonious beginning to my day. – Kristen Daniels
I thoroughly enjoyed my 21-day Yoga Challenge. It was one of the most fun and meaningful challenges I’ve experienced. Even though, it was hard to wake up at the beginning, it got easier and I started to enjoy waking up early! I loved Subhash’s teaching style and his passion towards yoga. We, as your students, could see how much you believe in what you teach and that is indispensable! I liked the fact that we were able to do things at our own pace. I also really liked how you varied what we did each day, so that we learned something new everyday. Last but not least, I appreciated you sharing with us the philosophies and the concepts behind yoga. – Vineetha Govindasamy
It was a truly wonderful experience. I thought the challenge would be going everyday at such an early hour but the energy, passion and quiet of the morning that I discovered at the studio made it a great experience and compensated for any loss of sleep. – Peggy Immekus
Very positive – actually no complaints of having to get up earlier than I usually do – the whole 90 minutes was well planned and interesting – everyday we learned something new, did new asanas, took home a new sutra to ontemplate – Carole Fine
Excellent! I am very thankful for the amount of knowledge parted during the course. Subhash has a deep understanding of Yoga. And I would do another course with him, just for his depth of knowledge in Yoga, bringing that authenticity or originality of Yoga, and his willingness to give his deep knowledge to his students. – Dinesh Perumal
“I personally liked this class very much and made me believe in Yoga. I could see the results in myself. Overall it has been an wonderful experience to see the transitions in my body from day 1 to day 21.” -Smita Garg
The program was a revelation of  the wonderful world of yoga. I have found the yoga taught to be a very powerful tool for a healthy and blissful body and mind. In fact the program is structured so well, and the duration so ideal, that I already feel a big difference in my total well-being. Subhash’s deep knowledge of the subject keeps you absolutely absorbed and engaged. IT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE!! -Deepa Arigala
“Great! experience doing yoga with Subhash. The following benefits I got  myself while doing the yoga classes.  1. Improved health 2. No mood swing 3. More focus 4. lost weight 5. No Sleeping problem  6. Positive Discipline(Time and food)” -Kumar Senthil
The Class was exceptional.  I have been to many “western” type Yoga Classes.  This was different in that it went into the history and meaning of things.  From my Christian point of view I enjoyed learning about the how Yoga and Hinduism are intertwined and how closely related many of the beliefs are with the 10 commandments .    I liked meeting all of the other participants. -Jeff Fike
“It was a great experience and it totally changed my whole life. I was suffering from lower back pain and anal fissure for a year and half. After taking this 21-day challenge (with sattvic food) program, I completely got relief from the pain. The yoga postures helped my digestion system which helped to heal the anal fissure. I wish I would have attended this program earlier. It is really a challenging program which requires concentration and motivation which I got it after couple of classes. In addition to the physical exercise, now I have also been trying to control my eating habits. Practicing Yoga and eating more natural foods has made a huge difference in “”how I feel””. Thank you Subhash ji, for sharing your expertise and helping me to overcome my health issues. You are such a great and wonderful instructor. I wish and pray for your healthy life. Namste!!!” -Sujatha Muthuswamy

“I am only more and more convinced that yoga is indeed the single approach to happiness of both the mind and the body. I feel really blessed and lucky to have discovered Subhash and yoga. The philosophy in the form of yamas and niyamas that were shared, I think, was a gentle reminder of how we should live life, and very welcome. In other words, we must practice yoga both in letter and spirit!!” – Deepa Arigala

There are solid, tangible, easily visibly results for the work I’ve put into it. The classes have helped me to understand how to listen to my body. This is something I didn’t pay much attention to before. This will be more important as I age and continue to work on staying in shape.” – Karl Ulrich

” Definitely felt an increase in energy. Really enjoyed the classes, especially the one where there was an emphasis on spending a little more time in each Asana. I really felt the deep stretches and understood the meaning of the Asana being comfortable and yet stable. I did not want to come out of some poses! Overall, I think the class offers a very good blend of Asanas, Pranayama and background information about different aspects of Yoga.” – Shilpa Nagaraj
“”On day one–I really want to quit! I thought— this is NOT for me. I even wanted to quit at week two. Then we did the slow yoga–holding poses and I no longer wanted to quit…that was spiritual. I so enjoyed the class and felt stronger after the 21 days.” – Marianne Burke
