Yogamu Reviews 262

BUYER BEWARE ⚠️ Yogamu is a total scam, waste of your money...DO NOT sign up for their programs as they are not even legitimate!!! it has been 10 days now since I requested a full refund from Yogamu for a special discounted 'face yoga course.' On September 18th, I registered for the course. I waited for one week to receive the course materials and did not receive anything at all. I even tried logging on to my Yogamu account that I still have from having taken Meditation 🧘‍♀️ Training in the past. I was extremely disappointed by this. I could not access the course at all. I could not get through to anyone either. I was really looking forward to taking this.

Then when the money was taken out of my bank account for the course, and I realized how expensive the fee was for me in Canadian dollars, with the exchange rate, I realized that this is too much money for me at the moment, since I am not working currently. Since then, I have sent many e- mails starting on September 24th requesting a full refund. Each e- mail I receive a reply back with a ticket number staying that someone will get back to me, and no one never does get back to me. I did receive a response that said my ticket would be investigated and if I am found eligible for a refund, then it would take 7-10 days to process. Additionally, I have called multiple times. Most of the time, there is no support person to speak to, only a messaging service.  And so I have left several detailed voice mail messages and , again, no one ever gets back to me. I finally spoke to a real person about 3 days ago who told me that it takes 7 -10 days for a refund to go through and he said that he would double check it for me and ensure that things are processing correctly. Today it has been 10 days, and I still have not received any kind of refund in my bank account and have not received a phone call back or an e- mail. 

At this point, I am beyond frustrated and pissed. I have read the negative reviews on Google and at the Better Business Bureau, and they mostly all say the same thing as what I am saying right here This is the worst, most horrible customer service and educational course training school, unreliable, unprofessional, unethical place I have ever seen before, and this is completely unacceptable. This business is a total scam and fraudulent. Do not waste your time or money here!!!!!!!!!!!

I was lucky enough to purchase a package of many continuing education courses, as well as my 300hr YTT and yoga therapy course. Each course has been a wealth of new comprehensive information and the staff are so responsive to any inquiries I have. The live classes are diverse and offered across many times, so I've been able to find classes to attend.

Scammy! Courses are super awful, bad instructors videos, errors in reading material!
They make you go through hours of it, and then not give you the certificate or respond back to the emails.

If I could gives less star I would. After i finished passed and submitted my course, did not hear back. Emailed upteen times to no avail!
Read their Facebook reviews similar story to mine.

Reply to Yogamu
I have already contacted you via that email! It just gives an automated reply and generates a ticket number... and no body really responds. Also have left a review on Facebook etc
Better Business Bureau and Yoga Alliance are next. Honestly I only enrolled because your org was Yoga Alliance affiliated. I do think they should remove you from their registry, if they themselves have any standards. And when that happens, it wouldn't be a waste of time but Karma.
Also have screen capture of your final quiz with errors! even though I did pass it. I would email that to them too, to show how shoddy your online course is.

I purchased several courses which of 1. I never received a certificate off after finishing 2. asked for a refund for a course purchased as the quality was incredibly low: the course content was worse than things that can be found on youtube these days. It was impossible to understand the teacher due to poor sound and heavy accent. the Costumer service is not replying to questions and questions of these kinds are posted in their facebook groups don't get posted. Yogamu's business model is based on selling volume targeting western students, paying low Indian wages to their teachers. They don't really seem to care about quality or their students

Edit 3 september:
1. You are selective in publishing posts on your facebook group. I have sent posts several times after your 24/7 team is not available neither on the email address provided.
2.What more details would do you want if already mentioned some of your courses are of poor quality in terms of content plus no possible way of understanding whatever the teacher is talking about. I already sent several emails about this with a refund request. The question is why you are not replying to these emails??
3. It is not unusual people not getting their certification. I have screenshots of the many complaints of other people on social media.

Why is your 24/7 support still to this date not replying on any messages?

The instructor is the reason for this review. his method of teaching is very detailed and engaging without making the student feel unaware or inexperienced. Being able to participate with him while he not only goes through it with you but spot explaining parts that are better to see while being coached into the proper alignment. this method helps me as a instructor to know a spot on method to adopt in my own teaching/coaching.

Let me first say-if you are on the fence about enrolling in a course from Yogamu, DO IT! I have zero regrets-well only wish I had found them sooner! The self-paced courses have been great with the ebb and flow of life. And the variety of courses-awesome. But there are 2 things that are A++ for me, the teachers and support, AND the community! (I have my favorite teachers-but they are all incredibly kind, overflowing with knowledge, and they care about their students!) tons of live classes, and they are as interactive as you want/need them to be. I have completed 500 hours of YTT (and more) and the Yoga Therapy program is excellent-I am currently enrolled in that program. Good luck with your journey whether it’s to become a teacher like I did…or just expanding your practice and knowledge of yoga!

I can’t recommend Yogamu highly enough. They provide a wealth of information and expertise for all of their many classes, at an extremely affordable price. Yoga - basic and specialized, meditation, breathwork, Ayurveda and its applications- these concepts are now within reach of everybody. Multiple learning formats- print, live classes, recorded sessions, and multiple ways to get support. Very caring and experienced staff.

Bought a couple courses from them. The teachers are clearly knowledgeable and passionate about what they are teaching. The way the school is run, however, is a completely different discussion.

For larger programs like Ayurveda or Yoga Master, little to no guidance on where to start or a recommended progression through the course is given. There is no outline or other information to give you an understanding of what you need to work through in order to complete your studies. I asked for all of this nearly a year ago and have gotten zero response.

Additionally, the accessibility for the courses is awful. Some are all text based, some are video... There is zero consistency, and if you have any disability or a different learning style, good luck.

Instead of taking the time to address these issues and improve the courses for current students, the owner of Yogamu is cranking out new programs. Definitely wish I was not past the point I could ask for a refund because at this point I don't know how I can continue with my learning. Feels more like a money grab than an intentionally built yoga school.

Yogamu courses are part of a wonderful compendium of knowledge available online 24/7. With expert doctors and practitioners regularly teaching you to put theory into practice it has been a boon to me and my family. Yogamu is very recommended as an education and medical advice provider.

Studying and practicing the curriculum changed my life. It’s a wonder to me that it was made so affordable. On top of being affordable scholarships and payment plans are available making this ancient wisdom and authentic teachers teaching it available to anyone willing to invest the time into their own education, self improvement, etc.
I prayed for it and it was given. I’m just grateful beyond words.

Great school with teachers that truly care. Pricing is unlike anything you will find elsewhere. If you have any doubts about whether or not you can learn authentic yoga online, set those doubts aside and give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Yogamu is a wonderful school, a wonderful yoga community. I've been with Yogamu since it's beginning year 2020. A life saving healthy approach to living life as a peaceful, productive, genuinely happy soul. The courses are all encompassing and of the highest quality standards of teaching. Namaste.

The meditation course is life changing. Wonderful in my experience, and I am so grateful.

I enrolled with Yogamu Nov of 2023. I practice with the live classes everyday. They offer amazing knowledgeable instructors. This is the best investment I’ve made for myself. If you are unable to attend live classes, there are prerecorded classes available. Most of the instructors are based in India. I am grateful for the motivation and encouragement during daily practice. Thankful for the wisdom, advice and guidance. In the last 6 months, I have learned so much about the ancient wisdom of Yoga and skills to also share this knowledge. I have finished my 200hr YTT & currently working on more certifications with this school. Yogamu has guided me on a journey of love & compassion...and an understanding.. We WILL bring more love and kindness in the world by spreading yoga.

I am very happy with classes. All of the instructors are helpful and engaging and really want you to be your best. I highly recommend Yogamu.

Wonderful Yoga Alliance recognized school with very knowledgeable teachers! Most are based in Rishikesh and I like their traditional approach. I have finished my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training and currently working on more certifications with this school. Customer support is usually pretty responsive and resolves issues swiftly. Courses are very affordable and the school offers included live classes on a daily basis. They also add new courses with specializations pretty regularly.

I enrolled with Yogamu 17 Sep 2022. I practice live classes everyday with wonderful teachers and a great community. I've made many friends. The teachers are experienced helpful and caring. I appreciate that they watch my practice and offer suggestions to improve. I love to learn and the courses are very affordable. I'm enrolled in Yoga Therapy, Ayurveda, Hatha 200 & 300 YTT's, Yoga Master, Kundalini, Animal Ayurveda, meditation, breathwork, Yoga for trauma and more. I love that the school is caring and uses profits to help the local community by visiting schools with donations of food and pencils. I'm looking forward to travelling to Rishikesh next year to meet my teachers and study with them in person.
In my experience the school attracts students who are searching for deeper yogic knowledge and genuinely want to serve. The school is inclusive so anyone who wants to can learn the ancient wisdom of Yoga and the skills to share this knowledge.

What made my experience great is that I am gaining the true meaning of Yoga that made my asanas more meaningful. Pretti pays close attention and correct your form when needed and will spotlight you to give you special attention when needed. Nikoli is really great with the live meditation class and his lectures. Tamalyn did really great with teaching me Pranayama. I come from a very traumatic background and have a lot of traumatic experiences in life. I took a holistic lifestyle change and decided to take a career change and be aligned in every aspect. I did research a handful of schools and Yogamu is the one that stood out and fit everything I was looking for. I wanted to be taught from teachers where this all originated from. I began my course in June and so far, obtained two certificates and look forward to becoming an Ayurveda Practitioner, Trauma Yoga, Yoga Therapist, and much more. My only concern is that my teamup calendar is blank and I go off the calendar that was shared to me from Ravi. I am overfilled with gratitude.

I am really enjoying the access that the Yogamu courses provide to a yoga community. The live classes are encouraging, informative and impact full. I especially get a lot out of the lives and recordings with Prithi and Tamlyn. Deepak's pranayama classes are inspiring! I'm currently in YTT 200 and 300 hour Meditation 2, Breathwork and Yoga Therapy 800 hour courses so Ill be with them a while. Customer service through the chat on the website has always led to a resolution in good timing. I'm pretty happy with this accessible Yoga resource.
