Sadhana Yoga School proudly offers yoga teacher trainings and events in India, the sacred motherland of yoga.
Our India programs are located at Devarya Welless, located in the heart of a serene seaside town of Goa. Spanning 7,000 square meters, this green retreat overlooking the Morjim Beach is a peaceful sanctuary to reconnect and find peace within. At Devarya, which translates into Divine Belief in Sanskrit, everyone can experience the goodness and mindfulness of a holistic yoga lifestyle.
While attending an event or yoga teacher training in India with us, we will meditate together each morning looking out at the Arabian Sea, practice yoga together on the open air deck, engage in meaningful philosophical discussion in a conscious way allowing us to explore the depth of mind and emotion.

We will arrange your transportation from the airport, costs will be shared between number of students, to be paid in USD. Contact our team today with any questions at info@sadhanayoga.com!

It is important to note that India requires a visa, which must be taken care of ahead of time (the two options for obtaining one are detailed below). It is also important to note that Indian travel regulations change often, and generally with little notice.

More information and details on requirements when traveling to India can be found on this page, and on links accessible from this page.
You can apply online here for your standard Indian Visa. It is recommended to apply for your visa at least 15 days in advance. Please note that your visa type & reason for visiting is tourism, and also that this is the only site approved by the Indian Government to process visa applications in the USA.
If you are certain that you will be in the country fewer than 30 days, there is also the option to apply for an electronic travel authorization in lieu of a Visa, at the link below. This is recommended to be done at least 4 days before travel (but not more than 30 days). We advise completing the process with enough time to apply for a traditional visa (in the event they do not approve your electronic travel authorization).
