I had an amazing time at the Center! I can't thank Dada enough for welcoming me and being a great teacher, I learnt so much in the 2 weeks I was there and I now have some new spiritual practices that I will take away with me on my continued journey :) the food is very healthy and delicious and I got to participate in all the practices daily whilst doing the social media - the days were full but meaningful to say the least :)

What can I say about Dada and my experience at the ashram?! My love and appreciation can't be put into words. Dada is the best company ever, the food is absolutely incredible and healthy, the days are extremely peaceful and encouraging personal growth. I learned so much here, about spirituality, yoga, meditation.. and I feel like a big piece of me has healed. The volunteer room is private and extremely clean and cozy. The volunteer job is very chill, and Dada is very helpful and understanding. I can't recommend it enough. See you soon, Dada đ

I am truly very grateful for this experience! Dada was always very kind and thoughtful. He shares his knowledge with generosity and respect, and you can learn a lot from him. You will learn simple practices to integrate into your daily life that can help you become more present and improve your well-being. Some days it was just the two of us, and I felt honored to share that time with him. The ashram routine requires commitment if you want to go deeper, but it is absolutely worth it. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a peaceful and calm space to reset. Namaskar, Dada!

Dada was super kind, respectful, and caring. He always looked out for my well-being. I found the experience of living in an Ashram fascinating, and learned about a whole different way of life. I expected more physical asanas, as I've experienced in other yoga retreats, but with dada I spent a lot more time exploring the philosophy of yoga and yoga as a spiritual journey. I will definitely be incorporating some of what I learned into my everyday practice!

I was warmly welcomed to the ashram by Dada, a fun, kind and thoughtful host. Creating content for the ashramâs social media included posting stories and one reel daily, and the rest of the time could be spent immersed in the meditation and tantra yoga classes and practices. I learned so much during my short time here, and would recommend this experience for anyone curious about spirituality. Thank you Dada for everything!

I had a great time volunteering at the ashram. Having the responsibility of cooking, along with the creative freedom to do so, was an experience I'll carry with me. The space is peaceful, and the volunteer hours are fair, which allowed me to fully enjoy the yoga, meditation, and overall atmosphere. Dada is a wonderful host who makes you feel at home from the beginning and shares real, effective teachings and practices. This is an ideal place for anyone looking to reconnect with themselves through yoga and meditation, and to learn or deepen their spiritual practice.

Dada is a great host and takes really good care of the volunteers. That said, I do feel like I need to point out (as another review did) that the ashram is part of the Center Marga organization. Which means that, while most of the things and practices taught at the ashram are based on Tantra principles, some are also purely the organization's and its leader (Baba's) ideas. So I would advise to look into it before coming so that you know what you're getting into. I ended up leaving up earlier because the ideas of the organization did not fully resonate with me

Thank you for sharing your perspective. Yes, the ashram is certainly inspired by the teachings of Ananda Marga, which are rooted in classical yoga and tantraâpractices we deeply value. However, our intention is not to promote any particular organisation, but to offer a space for meditation, personal growth, and serviceâpractices that people from any background can benefit from, regardless of belief. Our values are spiritual and universal, grounded in respect for all. We wish you all the best :)

Namaskar everyone. From the first moment I arrived at the ashram I felt very welcomed. I came curious to learn and go deeper into yoga, and my stay went beyond expectations. I ate healthy food every day, practiced a lot, and gained a deeper sense of spirituality. Dada is a wonderful person full of knowledge. I truly recommend this volunteering to anyone seeking a spiritual experience and to know themselves better. Thank you Dada!

My stay at the ashram was truly exceptional. Dada is such a kind, gentle, and radiant soul. I arrived feeling unwell, and he took such thoughtful care of me. I had complete freedom during my stay and could cook whatever I wished. The ashram has a truly magical atmosphere, felt at home from the very beginning and even decided to extend my stay. Dada is a wonderfully patient and inspiring teacher. My time there was deeply humbling and incredibly enriching. I can wholeheartedly recommend volunteering there.

I had a wonderful time volunteering at the Center. I came with little knowledge of meditation or asana, but Dada is an incredible teacherâpatient, incredibly kind, and generous with his time and knowledge. I got to connect with locals, explored Guatemala City its surroundings. Dada is also an amazing cook, and we ate healthy, super delicious meals three times a day. I'm truly grateful for this experience, as it opened my eyes to a beautiful philosophy of life that I hope to develop further. Would highly recommend to anyone even slightly interested in meditation :)!
