It was great to experience Hari's yoga class during our 2019 Kızılbük Retreat in Turkey. For me, as an Ashtanga Yoga practitioner, trying a different discipline like the Krisnamacharya tradition with him was very nourishing and refreshing. To start a day with Vedic mantras in Hari's voice was fantastic! Hari is always holding space for you to share your own light and your inner wisdom. He is a good listener.
I recommend Hari's classes with all my heart!

I am a Hatha Yoga practitioner and I have a piece of certain knowledge and a way of practice in yoga. In the 2019 Turkey Yoga Retreat, I had a great yoga experience with Hari and practised yoga from different angles. I had refreshing and relaxing classes with Hari.
I could concentrate more on my breath and my inner state. In one of the classes we practised Yoga Nidra. This was a good opportunity because although you can practice it on your own, I don't get the opportunity to practice it with a good teacher.
I really enjoyed the inner work through yoga we did, such as yoga with stories, where I could observe my feelings, my reactions to the facts, etc. Hari is a good observer and has excellent guidance!

It was not my first, but my best Yoga practice! In the Kizilbük Yoga Retreat in July 2019, I realized the intellectual practice of Yoga together with pauses and meditations. I had the opportunity to discover my inner peace and joy!

Hari's sessions on introducing the different aspects of Yoga through story telling and reflective arts were very evocative. All of us could discover something new about ourselves in this process!

What can I say...I understood the literal meaning of going back to your roots and experience pure organic living upon attending Hari's Yogaśāla retreat at Binsar.
For a beginner like me, this retreat camp was a perfect blend of low-intensity trekking along with yoga and meditation with tarot card reading and bird watching alongside. We stayed at a homestay right in the middle of the forest where the hosts were extremely warm and hospitable; really made us feel at home. Everything prepared and cooked for us was right from their backyard farm...as fresh as it can get!
Hari's yoga and meditation sessions were truly rejuvenating for both the mind and body helping one to recharge their batteries which gets depleted owing to the strenuous city life. Can't forget to mention the full moon meditation and tarot card reading sessions I had with Hari which was a great first time experience. We went for a village walks wherein we witnessed how the locals spend their daily life in the forest, what they grow on their farms, how they take care of their pets, how they cook and most importantly how they manage to live their life with limited resources and income...truly ORGANIC LIVING!
Finally, my thanks to Hari and the whole team of Yogasala and Team Outdoers for arranging such a wonderful retreat. Look forward to more from you guys in the future. Keep ROCKING!!!

The Binsar Yog Retreat that I attended with Yogasala was an experience of pure bliss! Three days spent in the beautiful mountain ranges of Uttrakhand with a backdrop of Himalayan ranges in the small Ganaup village of Binsar was a deeply meditative experience. The trip was fulfilling with amazingly relaxing yoga sessions both in early mornings and evenings. Simple home cooked organic food made from ingredients plucked right in front of you was deeply nourishing.
Treks in the forest and hills filled with only pure oxygen and sun were rejuvenating for both the physical and mental body. A completely unique experience of full moon meditation in the mountains helps put you in touch with your deepest inner self. Evokes things you never knew existed in you. The self reflection workshops through exercises and movies, tarot guidance by Hariprasad were extremely insightful.
I congratulate and thank Yogasala for organising such a powerful experience of self reflection, relaxation, peace and hopes in such a short duration of time.

I had the fantastic opportunity to attend Hari's Yōgaśāla's retreat in Kochi in Apr 2017 and it was probably the best thing I decided to do in 2017 yet!! I have never been a yoga enthusiast, on the contrary not been much interested in yoga even, but attending the retreat was a turning-point decision.
Hari and his fellow yoga teacher, Rohini, were the right degree of encouragement, confidence and careful keeping in mind that some of us were first-timers. Yet, I felt totally comfortable and trusted them completely. The program design was beyond a doubt, flawless, what with the activities covering all aspects that one would like to explore on a retreat - inner self, reflection, yoga asanas, fun activities, healthy yummy local cuisine, eclectic mix of fellow retreat participants, and even sightseeing!
It was an amalgam of all that I could have asked for and I'm eagerly looking forward to the next one that I can make it to! Cheers to Hari and Yōgaśāla!

With zero yoga experience and an open mind I decided to attend a yoga retreat in Cochin. Apart from the trip being my first one alone, I was also going to be living with and learning yoga from people I hadn't met before. Hari was the yoga teacher I didn't know.
Just like his personality, Hari's sessions were so calming and soothing. The first session I attended of his was a yoga nidra session. He made sure all of us knew the benefits of doing each posture and also the right way to do it. It was a great session and it took all my body pain away. Apart from that I felt a different calm within me. Something that I hadn't felt in a while. After that, we just had great sessions back to back. Looking forward to more sessions with him in the future.

Hari is an excellent trainer and a wonderful human. I was fortunate to attend a retreat that he conducted. Thoroughly enjoyed all the sessions. A truly memorable experience!
He emphasises on connecting with the breath during the practice. "Breath is one's best friend, with you from the moment you're born till you die." Connect with your breath. Something I learnt from him.
Best wishes to Yogaśāla!

I had opportunity to attend Yoga classes of Hariprasad at Hampi. When he invited me to participate in Yoga Retreat which is going to be held at Hampi, I thought I could see the places rather than yoga classes. As a person who have not much experience in yoga, I went along with my wife Reshma to the yoga retreat, more curious to watch places and meet new people.
But yoga classes of Hariprasad and Rohini have taken us to another level of experience which cannot be expressed in words. We are now practising yoga regularly and experiencing the difference it creates in us.
