It’s a perfect school teaching authentic traditional yoga as well as the purest form of the Mysore school of Ashtanga and Vinyasa multi-series at affordable price compared to other schools in Rishikesh.
The vivid sound of temple bells, schoolchildren reciting morning mantras, and magnificent gatherings of individuals from all over the world on a quest for spiritualism and self-discovery make one feel alive when one awakens in the colourful and energetic neighbourhood of Rishikesh. It arouses one’s dormant spirit to see and develop one’s full potential. For those who are broken or burned out, Rishikesh has always been a place where they can find serenity, strength, and love as they get ready for the path ahead with love, kindness, self-assurance, and a strong inner voice.
Our school aims, taking in the true essence of the spirit of Rishikesh, is to provide the deep ancient knowledge of Yoga and its essence in the most contemporary form but in an authentic way. Thus bringing science and ancient knowledge parallel to each other in keeping the spirit of Rishikesh.Our high standard of teaching to every student is an essential core of our foundation. We believe in knowledge in its true form and should be delivered correctly to share it with others anywhere in the world.
We believe the world is one big family and Yoga is very much beneficial to everyone irrespective of caste, religion, gender, ethnicity, etc. All and everyone is welcome with open arms to join us in our journey as we GO WITH THE FLOW
We are one of the very few schools teaching the Traditional forms of Hatha Yoga and Mysore school of Ashtanga Asana, Vinyasa Flow, Ayurveda, Meditation and Sound Healing. Authentic yoga for authentic students.
All the teachers have immense experience of many years teaching both in India and abroad. They are friendly and knowledgeable. The teacher often joins during meal hours as well for the excursion.
The classrooms are also small with an average of 10 to 14 students per course. This allows enough time allocated for each student to get focus on the teacher. This has proved to help them to grasp true knowledge and improve their yoga skills.
Our accommodation comes with absolute hygienic consideration. It’s cleaned every day and has 24 hours of hot and cold water. If students prefer (an extra charge is added ) we can arrange brand-new mattresses, bedsheets, pillows, blankets, and towels for the new TTC course.
Unlike many schools, we encourage our students to get exposure to Ayurveda which is essential for yoga. Our school invites internationally renowned Ayurveda doctors to conduct a seminar for 3 days during the course.
Other activities such as fun night, singing night, dancing night, painting and games such as chess, Uno, cards etc. are organised for students to engage in and know each other and develop bonds and friendships. It’s a perfect atmosphere to let go of!
