Having classes late in the evening after a long, eventful day was exhausting. I really enjoyed that we had so many classes outdoors. I’m taking a lot of great ideas back to my daily work. I also got to meet many nice people again, who really enriched the seminar.

It was a very inspiring week. I gained a lot of new insights. In a few instances, I would have liked to have had more theoretical instruction.
Yoga Vidya in Bad Meinberg is a special place. Here, I was able to experience a completely different way of life.
The educational leave was well worth it.

Thank you so much for your review! We’re glad you had an inspiring week and that the experiential education training was enriching for you. We’re happy to take your request for more theoretical content into consideration. It’s great that you were able to take so many positive memories home from Bad Meinberg. 😊 Petra

The training program is very well structured, and the seminar leader, Galit, is highly experienced in conveying a great deal of knowledge in a concise and lasting way in a short period of time. However, two satsangs a day is simply too much, while opportunities for group practice are somewhat neglected. For example, if we could practice in small groups for 2–3 hours in the evening instead of the satsang, that would be much more helpful for building confidence. After all, the goal is to be able to perform the massage by the end of the course.

A great seminar—I highly recommend it.
The presenters were very enthusiastic.
There was too much content for such a short seminar; one more day would have been great.

Recommendation
There was no food! The few leftovers that were still available were inedible. Because of the food alone, I avoid Bad Meinberg and prefer other ashrams. I consider the vegan concept to be an insult to paying participants. Basically, you have to plan on eating out, which makes Bad Meinberg very unattractive in terms of cost.

Yoga Vidya Comment from Yoga Vidya:
Dear Andreas, thank you for your honest feedback. 🙏 We are very sorry that you were so dissatisfied with the food and that this significantly affected your overall impression. We truly regret this. Our vegan concept is a conscious choice, but of course it should be high-quality, fresh, and filling. If this was not the case during your stay, then it does not live up to our standards. 🍲 We take your feedback seriously and will review internally what we can improve. Thank you for your feedback. 💛 Yvonne

It was one of the best seminars I have ever attended. Theory, practice—everything was superbly prepared and communicated. Both seminar leaders were extremely friendly and professional. They created a wonderful space at this workshop where everyone felt very comfortable and seen. Thank you very much 🙏🏼 OM Shanti

Dear Westerwald team, I would like to send a big THANK YOU to Alisa and all of you. It was a fantastic seminar from which I learned a great deal. Well-structured, rich in content, very good teaching methods, patient ;-)
I would love to book another seminar with Alisa right away—thank you for immediately responding to the participants' request for an advanced seminar. Due to school holidays, I will not be able to attend. Another thank you goes to the kitchen for the incredibly good food and to the house team, who made every area of the house shine and sparkle. See you soon!

It's always a dream to be at Yoga Video. It's a pleasure on all levels. Lovely people, great community, great program.
For me, this place is more than just a place to recharge. For me, it's a home. I have another idea on how to make this place even more beautiful. I would really like it if cell phones were only allowed to be used in the rooms. I sometimes find it disturbing to see other people using cell phones in the common areas. I am sure that some people would appreciate clear guidelines and enforcement of the rules, and that this would make the place even more attractive. I would also love it if the intermediate yoga classes were always like this. In some cases, they could be even more strenuous. I am looking forward to my next visit and am excited to see what changes will have taken place by then. Namaste, Felix
