"The TTC gave me a broad spectrum of information and Yogic techniques. It helped me to kindle my aspiration and to become much more precise and aware of my spiritual path. Agama provides a very efficient approach towards evolution, very concrete, practical, and structured. The community of Agama helped me to open up, ask new questions, and grow intensively. I am looking forward to continuing on this path!”
--Maria Kraler, Austria (2011)

"Agama Yoga is a LIFE-CHANGING, holistic system of knowledge and practice. In the TTC, you receive the essence of it in the best possible structure and form. When you finish this fantastic intensive program, you are equipped to begin a life-long journey, since the knowledge you receive here has infinite applications in every practical field of your existence, with a dynamic of permanent evolution. So, just go for it!”
--Serge Noyer, Switzerland (2011)

"The TTC was a beautiful, life-changing experience for me…This TTC made me a better person. I am so grateful that Agama provided me with these great tools for life…This school and these teachings have helped me so much on my spiritual path…The overall feeling in Agama is amazing. You feel a lot of support and love. I am very grateful that I can be part of the Agama community!”
--Kristiina Viires, Estonia (2011)

"The TTC offered those of us who participated in it a space to grow as teachers and as students. It offered us the opportunity to explore our spiritual aspiration and dedication. It provided us with the tools and technology to not only become Agama teachers, but also to be carried to the depths of our spiritual yearning.
"This course for me was a journey: at times incredibly smooth and fluid; other times jagged and difficult, and each lesson was transformed into a milestone of achievement and I, in turn, was also transformed.
"I would like to express my deepest thanks to all the teachers who supported this journey, to Swami Vivekananda, and to the teachings themselves. I see it as a tremendous honor to someday support this process as an Agama teacher.”
--Blaire Houghton, Canada (2011)

I am more pure than before. The TTC has inspired me to continue and be more steadfast in my path of evolution.
- Robert Fox, UK (2009)
I received much more than I expected from this experience... I grew spiritually, emotionally, and maybe physically. I learned a lot of teaching stuff; I love teaching Yoga.

I have been reborn, yet again. Every time I do Agama intensives (twice in Rishikesh, now TTC) I go through a cathartic rebirth. I feel I have gone through good purifications of the body, emotions, mid as well as activated my pranic body highly - but I still feel humble that there is much work, or shall I say practice, yet to do. I have let go of my Ego needs and surrendered to the Divine flow of my uncertain future. I see the light and feel Agama helped greatly!
- Adrian Blackhurst, Canada (2009)
My aspiration has grown. I want to learn more, practice more, evolve a lot more...

...This course is great. Very intense, but it opens the eyes and the heart. :-)

Before this course, I found presenting to groups of people very challenging, but the atmosphere of surrender that is so strongly created at Agama really helped me to push through this ego barrier. I have learned about surrender and have felt blessed by the grace of God - I've seen myself purifying at lots of levels, and felt how this has opened me up to be a vehicle of the divine. My prayer is stronger, my heart is more open, my faith has grown. Thank you from my heart. :-)

I didn't know much about Yoga and I had no idea Agama would be like this. This experience has changed me so much. I feel confident but not egotistical. It made me think deeply about so many things in my life. I met incredible peers and teachers whose knowledge will stay with me my whole life. Yoga has saved me; before coming here I was sick and hurt, and after coming here I received the tools to better my life and the lives of those around me. Thank you!
- Lara Small, Netherlands (2009)

For me the TTC did not simply provide "training" or certification in teaching Yoga, but rather it was a beautifully transformative and deepening experience; sharing, growth, inspiration and love were the names of the game!
I feel extremely blessed to have received these teachings, and so grateful for the gift of being able to share them with others!
- Tiffany Nicholson-Smith, Canada (2008)

I had done two teacher training courses in India before I discovered Agama Yoga, but neither left me feeling able to teach once it ended. As I continued my travels across India, I came across Agama and was so impressed with its approach, I knew I wanted to become a teacher of this Yoga.
After the TTC, my first thought was: "OK, now where are my students?!" I finally felt like a Yoga teacher.
- Jens Burkhardt, Germany (2008)

Unexpectedly, the intensity and depth of the teachings and practice in the Agama Teacher Training Course gave a new meaning and direction to my life. I wasn't looking for change at that time, but as one practices it simply starts to take place within.
Inspired by this new enthusiasm and outlook on life, I stayed with the school to continue my studies. It continues to be an experience of opening and self-discovery.
- Justine Baruch, USA (2006)

I am very grateful in this lifetime to our Swami Vivekananda Saraswati for the opportunity he gave me to explore, learn, and understand better so many beautiful things. Thank you, Maestro!
- Kostas Tselios, Greece (2008)

I found the TTC incredibly transformational. I felt like I was on a speedboat to spiritual evolution...
The course was so full and so intense. It was very rewarding and also allowed for greatly accelerated progress.
