Rishikul Yogshala - Yoga studio in Rishikesh - Pauri Garhwal, India

Namaste My experience at Rishikul yogshala was life-changing. I did my 200 YTT back in May this year with a small group of beautiful open-minded people. We were lucky to have our yogic path with such a small but super close group and I will cherish that for the rest of my life. Eternally grateful to all the teachers for their knowledge and wisdom. Krishna and Monica (meditation, yoga nidra, trataka and anatomy), Vimal (philosophy), Suraj (hatha yoga and adjustment and alignment), Mohit (ashtanga vinyasa yoga) Sukhmit (pranayama and jal neti) and Shubham (ayurveda), also Sukra (jungle trek to Mauni Baba cave), Rahul, Shiva (trip to Vashishtha guha) and Balram and everybody in Rishikul thank you! People of Jonk village big dhanyavaad See you for 300!

I loved my experience at Rishikul! Top notch teachers and a well organized yoga study program with amazing fellow classmates! Definitely met - and even exceeded my expectations!

Rahul, Krishna and Monika's were very supportive during the yoga course. Balram and the teacher of Ashtanga were always very attentive to help everyone improve the postures. Rahul in the kitchen always with a great performance, he was a tireless and respectful boy, very nice I will miss you all. Bipin . Thank You Rishikul for all I learned.

Teachers are helpful and have insight knowledge, supportive staff, calm and quite environment, great students from all age having enthusiasm to learn, satvik vegetarian food and great experiential learning ...

I always wanted to learn yoga in a more authentic way and from knowledgeable and experienced practitioners from a renowned school. Via the Founder of Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary, my place of work, I got introduced to a very experienced practitioner from India who teaches yoga all around the world. She recommended Rishikul Yogashala so I decided to go there. Last week I successfully completed my 200-hours Yoga Teacher Training at Rishikul Yogshala and I had one of the best experiences of my life. The teachers there are all very knowledgeable, authentic, and approachable. Their way of teaching yoga is supported by solid science, which I felt enhanced the experienced and fascinated me at the same time. The teachers at Rishikul Yogshala take their teaching very seriously, and they expect the students also to be the same about their learning. In a city full of yoga schools, I am so happy to have found one that treats yoga and meditation practice with the respect they deserve. And as a passionate animal lover I was even more happy with the teaching they did on animal welfare and co-existence of all sentient beings. The school has decent and nice rooms. They serve a variety of delicious healthy yogi meals every day. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and together with the teachers made the place feel like a home away from home. All in all, the school took very good care of us and they even had a doctor coming in every day for 2 hours so those students experiencing any health issues could be helped and monitored. I have learned a lot about yoga and meditation as well as discovered more about myself in the process. I would say I experienced a true spiritual journey. It was for me definitely a life changing event. I am definitely coming back to Rishikul Yogshala for my 300 hours Yoga Teacher Training.

It was amazing experience to complete 200 h TTC in Rishikul Yogshala! I am great full to the Universe for such inspiring and professional teachers who taught our multinational batch (took place in 01-20 Jul 2021). All teachers are very friendly, loyal, explain very clearly, very spiritual and have deep knowledge in traditional yoga which they share very generously. Moreover all of them speak English very well, that was very important for me as I don't speak Hindi. The rooms are simple, clean and very cheap - I know as I stayed in the Yogshala beyond the course time to enjoy Rishikesh, Ganga and local tracking and sightseeing :) The food is traditional Indian and you can ask the staff to adjust the meals if you have some special preference due to you health. The stag is always positive and friendly, ready to help. Thanks to all team, hope to get back soon

What to say about my experience? Well, first of all I have to say that I loved it! I love the course, the teachers, the food (super tasty, yummy delicious food), the school and all the staff from Rishikul Yogshala! The place is beautiful and the atmosphere is amazing! I also have to share with you that I had tough times, since the course is very intense and you get yourself dealing with some emotions that most of the times you just leave at the side! It was very challenging for me, but definitely necessary for my personal development! If you wish to become a teacher or just work on your self practice, I definitely recommend Rishikul Yogshala! I am sure you will love it as I did! Enjoy :)

Hands down one of the best places to learn authentic yoga from. I did my 200 hours teacher training course from Rishikul and I couldn't have chosen a better place. The teachers give you an in depth knowledge about every subject (Pranayama, Philosophy, Anatomy, Alignment, Mantra chanting, Meditation, Hatha & Ashtanga Yoga). The stay in Rishikul was very comfortable and the management was commendable. One of the many things that I liked was the food. Every meal was Satvik (and tasty). If you are considering to do a TTC or retreat in Rishikesh, Rishikul is your place to be.
