Highly recommended Reiki course! If you want to learn Reiki, yoga and other like-minded practices then this is THE place to go! Amit is such a knowledgeable & amiable guy, I wouldn't hesitate to come back. I cant wait to see what he can teach in a few more years as he is always learning & expanding on his knowledge 🙂

Great Reiki teacher, great course! I had a couple days to spend in McLeod Ganj w/o any plans, and I'm very glad that I crossed paths with Amit! First and foremost he's a wonderful guy, kind, very down to earth, a nice person, and he's also very knowledgeable in his fields, yoga, NLP and Reiki. I went to him knowing very little about Reiki, but I immediately felt comfortable and confident about signing up for his Reiki Level One course. (Bonus: the cost is a fraction of what it is in the U.S.!) He was able to work out a schedule to fit my time constraints, and he tailored the timing of the classes based not on the clock, but on how long it took for our little class to understand and practice the Reiki. His presentation was very pleasant, he's informative and professional, and he allowed plenty of time for his students to ask questions and to practice hands-on. The entire experience was a wonderful introduction to Reiki, and I look forward to continuing on to the higher levels. Followup: When I returned home from my trip, I practiced what Amit taught me on my sister who has chronic pain issues, and she practically cried in response to how good, and pain-free, she felt afterwards!
