My experience was both good and bad at this ashram — The food was probably the worst part and a couple people left because of this. The teachers would also say we were like family but never asked me if I was ok after looking ghostly when I was sick for days in class. Some of the teachers were great some of them were not the best but overall I coincidentally was with an incredible group of other people.
