A great place to learn. I learnt Spoken Hindi from this prestigious institution. It was a immense learning experience and I would rather say it's the best in class teaching. I would highly recommend for everyone and to be benefited from it. It was magical transformation !

- Deepak Prabhu (Participant of Online Spoken Hindi 34th batch Jan-Mar 2021)

Attended Thanjavur Painting classes at VCC recently. Honoured, to have learnt such a traditional art at a historical place like VCC. The facilities are awesome and very organized administration. The guru teaches authentic Thanjavur art, step by step meticulously.

—Vanitha Ganesan (Participant of Thanjavur Painting 23rd batch–March to August 2021)

I have done beginners Yoga. It is a very good experience and Very good ambience. Highly recommended for all those who want to learn yoga. By doing yoga regularly you feel energetic throughout the day. All those 21 session are amazing. VCC good place for beginner Yoga.

—Arjunan D (Participant in five Yoga batches YM54-YM55-YM56-YM57-YM60, with 100% Attendance)

I enrolled in YW32 Yoga batch. Completed successfully today. Instructor mam is excellent. Her way of explaining n giving guidance in doing yoga is extraordinary. With lot of patience she teaches us. If v have doubt , she repeats it until we get it. Once we enter the place, we can feel the vibrations n very peaceful place to do yoga. Swamiji's speech on the inaugural day n the final day is very inspiring! Thanks a lot VCC center for providing us this opportunity!

—Vanisri Balajee (Participant of Yoga Women 32nd Batch–21st Oct 2021 to 19th Dec 2022)

I have personally attended couple of courses (Yoga & Spoken Hindi) and my wife has completed a course on Thanjavur Painting at Vivekananda Cultural Centre (VCC) and I can rate them as the best with my full heart and mind. VCC is a precious gift for the people of Chennai. Their location on the beach road facing Marina Beach and the clean, hygienic, minimalistic and peaceful ambience is pure bliss and divine. VCC is open to people from all religious and cultural background.

VCC's courses are priced at a very nominal rate keeping in mind the affordability but they are one of the best investment that anyone can make on themselves. VCC's courses are designed in a simple, easy to learn and interesting manner but their impact on personality development are profound. VCC's course instructors are highly skilled, experienced, kind and passionate teachers and they do it from a service and spiritual mindset.

Anyone who wants to have progress in life physically, mentally and spiritually can achieve their objective by joining the courses offered by VCC, regularly visiting the center and associating themselves as volunteers.
