Rishikesh: The Yoga Capital Of The World


Rishikesh, located on the banks of the holy Ganges River in the serene Himalayan foothills, traces its yoga traditions and spiritual significance back thousands of years. Its tranquil atmosphere and stunning scenery make it ideal for introspection and spiritual development and thus has become the shelter for yogis and seekers.

Yoga in Rishikesh is so much more than just a physical exercise, it is a whole path of inner transformation and self-realisation. Rishikesh has proved to be a place that provides a supportive environment for development and self-exploration, whether one is looking to improve their practice, learn traditional yoga practices, or embark on a spiritual journey. We have developed a 500-hour prenatal yoga teacher training package for individuals who desire to teach yoga, as Rishikesh continues to inspire and attract people from all walks of life with its serene surroundings, vibrant spiritual community, and rich yogic tradition.
