We offer 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, immersive yoga retreats, and traditional Panchakarma and wellness programs, designed to honor classical yogic disciplines while supporting each individual’s unique journey. With experienced teachers and both residential and online programs, we provide a nurturing space for self-exploration and transformation.

Rishikesh carries a sacred rhythm that is felt in the Himalayan air, the echo of temple bells, and the gentle flow of the holy Ganga. For centuries, seekers from around the world have come here to experience authentic yoga and inner peace. Practicing yoga in Rishikesh connects you to an ancient stream of wisdom and healing.
In the serene foothills of the Himalayas, yoga naturally goes beyond the physical. Asanas awaken inner awareness, breath becomes meditative, and stillness deepens—guiding you back to balance, clarity, and your true self.
The energy of this land holds the memory of sages who walked here before us- those silent saints who sat by the river and dissolved the limits between self and universe. When you sit beside the Ganga at sunrise or bring your voice in chanting, you find yourself feeling light, clear, and alive. It isn’t a spell- it’s presence, and Rishikesh can bring you home to it.
So come…for we warmly invite you to experience it yourself. Walk with us on the banks of this sacred river. Breathe with the mountains. Let Rishikesh remind you of your wholeness, of your stillness, and the vast, beautiful peace that lies within you.
Yoga is more than a physical practice—it is a sacred inheritance passed down through generations as a way of life. Born in the stillness of forests, mountains, and ancient ashrams, yoga was shared heart to heart long before it was ever written. Its earliest roots are found in the Rig Veda, one of the world’s oldest spiritual texts, composed in the sacred language of Sanskrit.
As one of the trusted yoga centers in Rishikesh, we honor this timeless lineage through authentic Vedic yogic teachings rooted in India’s spiritual heritage. Our teachers are deeply grounded in tradition and compassion, guiding students to truly live yoga. Through mantras, philosophy, pranayama, meditation, and mindful practice, you walk the same path once taken by the ancient sages.
Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh at Aradhana Yogashala goes far beyond certification—it is a deeply transformative journey into the essence of yoga. Set in the spiritual heart of Rishikesh and accredited by Yoga Alliance, our programs blend ancient yogic wisdom with mindful, holistic guidance.
Our experienced and compassionate teachers bring years of practice, personal insight, and care into every class. Whether you begin with a 200-hour yoga teacher training or move into advanced studies, each course is thoughtfully designed to support your individual path.
