Om Ananda Yoga

Om Ananda Yoga in Fort Collins is my home away from home. Ive been an in-person student for the last 2.5 years. Prior to that, the instructors helped me enormously online during the Covid lockdown months. Among other trainings, all of which have been outstanding, Ive taken the 200 hours Yoga Teacher Training. Now, Im in the process of completing my 500 hours. As soon as I started, I knew Om was my safe space. This is where I feel welcome, supported, and encouraged just as I am. All the instructors and teacher trainers truly walk their talk. What I love the most is that they teach you about inclusion by being inclusive in their approach to teaching. Thanks to that, I fell in love with yoga right away; more specifically, I feel in love with all its components: asana poses, breath work, philosophy, meditation, and community. Im delighted that Om Ananda teaches through the true roots of yoga by honoring its tradition, as its supposed to be done. Thank you, Sarada, Shivaji, and the rest of the team. Im 61 years old, and, rather than retiring, I have a new purpose in life: to strengthen my body & mind, to cultivate awareness via yoga and meditation, and to help others do the same.

I first came to Om Ananda in March 2016 to earn my 300 hour yoga teacher certificate. I was really nervous coming into the training without knowing anyone from the Om community. However, I was immediately made to feel welcome and included amongst all of the teachers in the training. The trainings are high quality with knowledgeable instructors. The expectations are set high, which means you will learn A LOT! There is never any judgment or competitiveness amongst the teachers in training. I have gotten to know many of the Om instructors and their teaching styles. I enjoy being taught by them as well as learning from them. The teachers here are the most kind-hearted, sincere, and authentic people I have ever met. If you are looking for an inclusive community, or an excellent school, and a place to call home, then give Om Ananda a chance!
