Location

Querim, India

Querim, also known as Keri, is a tranquil village located in the northernmost part of Goa, India, renowned for its serene and relatively untouched beach. Stretching along the Arabian Sea, Querim Beach offers a peaceful retreat with its golden sands, swaying palm trees, and a gentle, laid-back ambiance that contrasts with the more tourist-frequented areas of Goa. The beach is less crowded, making it an ideal spot for those seeking solitude or a relaxing day by the sea. Close to the beach is the historic Ajoba Temple and the Terekhol Fort, providing a glimpse into the region's rich cultural heritage. With its pristine beauty, quiet charm, and opportunities for exploration, Querim serves as a delightful destination for visitors looking to experience the quieter side of Goa's coastal allure.

“I had a very transformational experience at Yoga Chaitanya International Institute. I did 200 hour Yin Yoga Training in India with meditation teacher training course. I experienced a lot of mental cleansing, which has changed the way I feel in life. Each session was a unique learning experience. The teaching was of high quality and has made me able to put on classes with more confidence. I got valuable training experience by leading multiple Yin Yoga classes. The place is a little cocoon.. located in nature with a lot of birds and animals. Amazing tasty ayurvedic food helped me in grounding !!! I highly recommend this yin yoga & meditation teacher training course in India ❤️

Amalie Due - Pilate & Yoga Teacher, Denmark

"I would highly recommend the Yin yoga and meditation teacher training Course from Yoga Chaitanya. I experienced enriching and profound four weeks, in which I was able to learn a lot about meditation and also about myself. We learn all the details of yin yoga the different types of meditations required for modern man, and various philosophies. The last part of the training is very interesting the laughter therapy & self-discovery module. It was a life-changing experience and I discovered immense joy and peace within myself. I definitely would come back for further training!"

Simran - Writer, United Kingdom

"It was an exceptional experience of my life to spend one month at a Yoga Chaitanya with a group of beautiful and kind people. We experienced a lot of dancing, singing, chanting, laughter, tears, and silence. After this training, I am feeling fresh & alive. This Yin yoga and meditation teacher training course has helped me a lot. I have discovered many new things about my personality. Before this training, I never thought that I would be able to teach yoga. Sukhvinder trained us with precise details, which helped us gain technical & presentation skills. I truly appreciate the personal attention and care of the teachers".
