Yoga School in India - Rishikesh Yogpeeth
We as an Yoga School in India find ourselves fortunate to be existing in Rishikesh, the world capital of Yoga, a small town in India’s northern state of Uttarakhand. This is the place where the holy river Ganga comes down from the Himalayas.
Rishikesh has been a major milestone in the journey of many seekers since time immemorial and is still the same. In the revival of yoga, Rishikesh is playing a vital role, where so many people come to participate in various courses and activities of this ancient art.
It is recorded in history and tradition that yogis and seekers of India sought the solitude of the Himalayas to deepen and perfect their practice. They believed in special energy in these mountains that aided their efforts. According to the scriptures, a place that is calm & peaceful away from the hustle & bustle of the market is perfectly suited for the aspirants to gain insights and make progress on the path of Yoga.
Keeping all of this in mind, Rishikesh Yogpeeth has chosen its locations to come as close as possible to the ideas of a Yoga Ashram.

Aims & Objective
At Rishikesh Yogpeeth, our intention is to apply the science of yoga by adapting the traditional knowledge of Indian Masters to suit our times, while taking care to preserve the essence of their teachings.
Yoga is about discovering your true nature through your own personal experience. We want to provide a transforming experience and focus on the subtler aspects of Yoga, not only covering the asanas but going beyond to enhance your understanding of yoga.
Our Yoga does not end at the yoga hall, it leads to personal revelations, changes and then transformation. We believe our teacher training programs will help you initiate this chain of self-transformation.
Those who are already initiated will be able to hone their practice of yoga and sharpen their perceptions of yogic philosophy and meditation.
