I did the teacher training course in May 2013. My teachers were amazing and lovely people. My classmates were from many countries and different level of age and knowledge. We were a strong group and we all passed! We simply had one of the best times in our lifes! It is hard, it is exhausting, it is a challenge -... More

I participated in a 4 day program with Grace van Berkum a few weeks ago. This was actually my third experience with Grace, having participated in last year's 10 day cleanse with Manu Dawson (April 2012) and her Gracious Living Raw Food Workshop (May 2012), both at the Sivananda Yoga Ashram- Bahamas. As you can probably tell I am a... More

Coming here is a great experience if you don't have wrong expectations. It is, after all, an ashram and not an eco-chic yoga hotel. The website and the brochure might suggest otherwise - so the organization takes part of the responsibility in selling this as "yoga in paradise" - but it is a spiritual place, run by volunteers. You have... More

I always enjoy going to the Sivananda Asrama. It's simple asrama living for a spiritual experience. Great food, nice facilities, friendly people, plenty of yoga, and an awesome beach. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

Graces's Detox retreats are supercharged with energy, delicious food, informative, fun and recipies which are easy to do at home. She glows with joy and health .... just look at her the proof is in the juice!

The best part because I am a local resident of Nassau was that I was able to go to the Ashram in the morning by ferry and leave after dinner at about... More

The perfect experience--yoga, kirtan, good food, great people, friends and family, a beautiful beach, crystal clear blue water... Came away feeling renewed, refreshed, rejuvenated, inspired... This sort of vacation goes beyond just rest and relaxation. If you are new to yoga, this is a really great introduction. And for longtime yoga practitioners, the ashram's knowledgeable staff offer a variety of... More

I have just returned from 5 glorious days at Sivananda Ashram in the Bahamas. I was there with family and friends for a Spiritual Yoga Retreat. What an amazing experience !!!!! Everything at the ashram was perfect, the food, the accommodations, the classes, the kirtan concerts, and the PEOPLE. Everyone was so kind, gentle, and very sweet. And the ashram... More

This property has a variety of accommodation, so be careful what you choose! There are very nice beachfront suites with attached bath, balcony, two queen beds, refrigerator, kitchen sink, desk, etc. for $130/pp. It adds up. But for just $20 less pp, you'll end up in a ratty little "beachfront" room with two twin beds, which are basically wooden frames... More
