Help with yoga decision

GwynethH · Nov 6th, 2009, 07:55

Hi,

I'm trying to decide where to do a yoga course. I've done yoga a handful of times so really want to get stuck into it at one of the ashrams. I can get into Sivananda Yoga at Neyyar Dam in Trivandrum or into Anand Prakash Yoga Ashram in Rishikesh. I would just really appreciate to hear from others which is the better place to do yoga as well as to hear if any of you have done the courses at these particular ashrams.

At Sivananda, I'd be in a dorm room, which I don't quite fancy sharing with loads of people and at Anand Prakash, I would be in a twin room which is much more doable.

I'd appreciate any advice given.

it depends , winters are better at sivanada and summers are better at Anand Prakash.

Hmm...that's what I'm wondering...would it be a little too chilly, it would be early December that I'd be there. I do like the sound of being close to the mountains though.

with sivananda the beach is closeby and its warmer climate..
with anand prakash u can skinnydip like real swamis in freezing cold water of the ganges and see if u gain mystical powers or succumb to hypothermia..
both have their own uniqueness..
