GoogleI recently completed my 200-hour Kundalini TTC and Reiki Level 1 & 2 attunements with Maa Hari Priya at World Peace Yoga School — and I can honestly say it was one of the most transformative months of my life. This school is a true sanctuary for anyone who is searching for their purpose, inner clarity, or simply something more. The entire month was filled with unforgettable moments, profound inner openings, and deeply powerful practices. The Kundalini kriyas, breathwork sessions, and meditations were exceptionally strong and guided with such wisdom and safety that I was able to explore layers of myself I never thought possible. The Hatha yoga classes, together with detailed alignment and adjustment, were taught with precision, care, and a lot of heart. They helped me build not only a stronger practice, but also a real understanding of how the body moves and how yoga works from the inside out. I was also deeply impressed by the philosophy and anatomy classes — both offered a genuine, insightful view into yoga beyond the physical level, helping me understand the roots, depth, and intention behind the practice. And of course, the Reiki training with Maa Hari Priya was a blessing. Her gentle presence, knowledge, and energy made the attunement journey incredibly powerful and personal. I feel truly honored to have learned from her. I wholeheartedly recommend World Peace Yoga School to anyone who feels the call of yoga, spirituality, or self-growth. If you’re looking not just for a course, but for a life-changing experience, this is the place.
I had the most amazing time with WPYS and I highly reccomend. The teacers were absolutely incredible and I truly changed mentally and physically. Hari you have a beautiful voice and I miss it every single day - Pranayama was incredible because of him . Akshat was incredibly precise with his teachings and we all loved him because of that. Anckit the schools director was also so nice and genuine. We had an incredible group of girls as well who made the experience great!!! Thank you WPYS for the experience!!!
WOW…. It’s new beginning now I loved this school very much location is superb very close to Ganga river and market, we can go and relax on river front it’s walkable distance. All the teachers are good and liked the classes are scheduled in proper manner. Food is delicious and lots of varieties everyday, all the staff is polite and helpful. Sadhna with Hari Priya maa is superb, guru vishnu is very humble and liked his way of treating everyone very grounded. Grateful for chance to meet him. All the other teachers are also very good Ashu sir’s style is impressive and he has very profound knowledge. Hope to visit again.
"World Peace Yoga School" quickly felt like home, thanks to its warm and welcoming community. I came to WPYS searching for more than just physical practice—I wanted a place where I could truly feel at home. From the moment I arrived, I was embraced by a caring community and teachers whose passion for yoga inspired me deeply. Every class was more than an exercise; it was a journey of healing and self-discovery. The entire team made me feel welcome and at home... We all became friends and shared our first in depth yoga journey together. The food was fresh, tasty, and very appetizing... I loved every minute of the course. Everything about the space is uplifting and positive, and I cannot wait to return! Thank you World Peace Yoga School 🙏🏻
I came to the 200 yoga kundalini. I never imagined how good the school is. Very professional. Each and every teacher of subject is wonderful. They have so much knowledge that they share with so much love. And I was worried about the food, but nothing to do with what I thought and worried. Is really amazing. I felt a true transformation. I really recommend the school.
