"Gurukul, a perfect abode for yoga lovers/beginners and we say this with spending a year with Gurukul. Its been an awesome expereince with both Prashant sir and Manju right from the start. The welcoming atmosphere to true authentic yoga techniques makes it a memorable journey for anyone who has a zeal to learn. Absolute professionalism is portrayed when Prashant Sir gave a class with just 1 student that being my husband, this certainly awed us. Taking personal interest in a professional setup is a rare combination in today’s commercial world which I hope always remains with the Center. Wishing from deep within great success for many more years to come."

"Prashant, Greetings! My name is Gwen and I was one of your students at 6:30 am Yoga during the FAPAC Conference. I wanted to thank you again for your yoga instructions during the Conference. I loved every minute of it and I am still doing the Asanas and Pranayama's you shared with us. Thanks again for sharing the science of Yoga. Take care."

"The major benefit to which I can personally attest to is a heightened sense of wellbeing. My regular, daily breathing is more relaxed and effective resulting in a composed and more receptive attitude which I bring to my daily activities. Also, a host of minor aches and twinges have been lifted due to the “beautiful” stretches and warm ups. Yoga practice has produced a net gain in my weekly quality of life."

"My husband and I have been students of Gurukul yoga for a year now. I must say that this is the first time that we have kept up with yoga classes so consistently. We look forward to our Tuesday night yoga. Prashant is our teacher most nights. Prashant is an extremely good teacher and, the yoga moves are very authentic. It is evident that both Prashant and Manju are very knowledgeable in yogic practices. We enjoy our yoga sessions and plan to continue for as long as we can. Good Job."

"I’ve been taking Yoga for the last five years and it has become such an important part of my life.
My posture and balance are so much better as is my muscle tone and flexibility.
Breathing and relaxation exercises have had a very positive effect and I find myself practicing them when things get stressful at work.
I’m 60 years old, a cancer survivor and have never felt better.
I only wish I had started classes 20 years ago!
Manju and Prashant
have been wonderful teachers and guides on this exciting journey."

"I was impressed how you managed to keep the attention of very young children and an accompanying adult
through the 6-week old
session. The children learned their ABC's, a little about Yoga and had lots of fun. I was also impressed how you taught adults and
children about health, breath , and relaxation in an easily understood manner." Click here to read more..

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Mr. Prashant Joshi and Mrs. Manju Joshi for about 10 years. I have known about their
strong interest and involvement with Yoga for that period of time. I have had the pleasure of taking Yoga classes with them.
I feel that they are excellent teachers."

"I want to thank you for bringing Gurukul Yoga to Bridgewater, and tell you I am very grateful for your many contributions to our community as our teachers, neighbors, and friends. Your passion for what you do is quite evident, as you are always professional and knowledgeable, yet friendly - taking a personal interest in every student. I also appreciate the variety of interesting seminars and classes you provide, from Yoga, music, dance to aromatherapy. I have seen many positive changes in my being these past 18 months, especially in regards to women’s health, and I know the credit goes to YOGA. Thank you for improving my quality of life!"

"I have been taking yoga for about 8 years now. I live 40 minutes from work and have a very busy schedule so I was unable to continue taking classes at the studio near my home. I was so excited when the Gurukul Yoga Holistic Center opened up in spring 2006 just around the corner from my job. I started taking one of Manju’s classes and I soon looked forward to every Thursday evening. I would then find out that I was pregnant with my first child and stopped attending the Yoga class. Manju reached out to me because she had not seen me in a while. When she heard the news she was not only excited for me but began teaching a private evening pre-natal class for myself and one other woman. Manju was very helpful and supportive throughout my pregnancy and had a lot of wonderful advice for me. I am convinced that her pre-natal yoga and words of wisdom were responsible for my quick delivery. I have recently returned back to work and I am still trying o figure out how to balance a baby and a full-time job but I am eager to fit Yoga at the Gurukul Yoga Holistic Center back into my routine."
