AryaMarga Yoga is proud to present the Anubhava yoga (experiential yoga) appreciation program, an intensive course designed for those interested in actually experiencing the theory and practice of authentic yoga. The Anubhava program acts both as a precursor to AryaMarga Yoga’s more intense and exhaustive five-month yogic lifestyle program and independently as a unique introduction to the ancient science of integrated yoga.
The accommodation will be at the institute in Bir, Himachal Pradesh. It’s nestled in the field and forest, offering a warm welcome to tourists and ensuring quality and comfort. Twin-sharing or private accommodation will be provided for all the participants.
Known by their Sanskrit terms - Hatha, Mantra, Tantra, and Raja yoga - the four yogas of the body, the mind, consciousness, and no-mind have been practiced for millennia in India as one single integrated system. This integrated system cannot simply be learned. It must be experienced.
To rapidly enable the flowering of experiences in the integrated for yoga system, AryaMarga Yoga utilizes the experiential methods of bhava - spanda or passion - waves, the high intensification of mentally generated emotional states. The experience of this intensified emotion within the techniques of the four yogas is the real inner revealer and transformer of your personalities and bodies.
Experience in Sanskrit is termed Anubhava and this Anubhava yoga appreciation program is designed to generate within the participants the inner experience of the four yogas. The program concludes with a one-week guided trek into the Himalayas, visiting some of the nomadic monks and spiritual power spots in the Himalayas.
The techniques learned in the course will be practiced for maximum effect in these Himalayan settings to bring the experience to a close and a new beginning.

Maria is from Colombia, where she attended her first asana classes and started developing a passion for the practice. The feeling she had after her first class is something she will never forget and she remembers firmly knowing that this practice was going to be with her for the rest of her life. Of course, she couldn’t have even begun to imagine how deep it would go. Maria has since joyfully been with the AryaMarga family. She leads Hatha and Vinyasa classes for beginners to strong intermediates and is in training of pranayama, meditation, and theory.

From Delhi, Bir is about 12 to 14 hours by bus. From the Interstate Bus Terminal (ISBT), take a bus to Baijnath. There are two overnight buses from Delhi to Baijnath, both of which depart mid-evening and arrive early the following morning. From Pathankot and Chakki Bank, board any bus heading for Dharamshala, Kangra, Palampur, Baijnath, Mandi, Manali, or Shimla.
For Dharamshala and Baijnath, refer to the following directions: from Dharamshala, Bir is about four or five hours by bus, depending on the timing of buses and number of connections. There are three ways to travel from Dharamshala to Bir by bus. There are two daily direct buses to Bir Road and Upper Bir leaving at 6:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. from the bus station in (lower) Dharamshala (about four hours).
Alternatively, you can take a direct bus from Dharamshala to Baijnath where you can continue onward to Bir either by local bus or by taxi. If the timing of direct buses to Bir or Baijnath will not work for you, the last resort options are these: either take a bus to Palampur and change there for any other bus onward to Baijnath or further east, or just hop on any bus heading east from Dharamshala, including those to Jogindernagar, Mandi, Manali, or Shimla, and ask the driver or conductor to drop you off at Bir Road. If you get to Chauntra or Jogindernagar, you’ve gone too far).
This can take from three to five hours. If your bus stops at Baijnath, you'll have the option of traveling the last leg to Bir (20 to 30 minutes) either by bus or by taxi (about INR 250). If you choose to go by bus, there are two options. You can take one of the direct buses from Baijnath to Bir (which leaves about every half hour or so and go all the way to Upper Bir) or any bus heading east from Baijnath (such as Jogindernagar, Mandi, Manali, or Shimla) and ask the driver or conductor to drop you off at Bir Road.
Take a train to Pathankot and take a bus or taxi onward to Bir. The most common way to travel to Bir is by train from Delhi (or wherever your origin may be) to Pathankot or Chakki Bank (two neighboring train stations in the Punjab, either of which is fine) and then make the rest of the journey to Bir by bus (six to eight hours) or taxi (four to five hours).
Take a train to Pathankot and onward to Bir. It is also possible to go almost all the way to Bir by train if you have considerable patience and/or a profound love for trains. There is a charming little toy train that leaves every morning from Pathankot to Ahju, just three kilometers from Bir (below the Bir Road intersection).
Most overnight trains from Delhi (when running on time) reach Pathankot approximately an hour before the toy train leaves, so the connection is doable unless your train from Delhi is quite late (which, of course, is always a possibility, though less likely on Rajdhani and Shatabdi express trains).
Taxi is the fastest and most convenient way of getting to Bir from Pathankot or Dharamshala, but it is also by far the most expensive and the least eco-friendly. So if you come by car, please consider sharing the ride with others.
