This 100-hour Yoga Teacher Training takes place at our traditional ashram in Upper Tapovan, Rishikesh—where the mighty Himalayas meet the sacred flow of the Ganga. Known as the birthplace of yoga, Rishikesh offers a spiritually rich, deeply grounding environment for sincere students.
Wake up to the sound of temple bells and birdsong. Practice yoga with breathtaking views of the mountains, meditate by the riverbanks, and find stillness under ancient trees. Each day flows in rhythm with nature—mornings of practice, afternoons of study, and evenings of chanting, satsangs and reflective silence.
Himalaya Yoga’s ashram campus offers the ideal balance—peaceful and secluded for inner work, yet walking distance from the vibrant spiritual heart of Rishikesh and the Ganga ghats.
Whether you're called by nature, silence or sacred wisdom, this is the space to reconnect— with yourself, your practice and the living roots of yoga.
At Himalaya Yoga, food is part of the practice. Rooted in traditional ashram living and Ayurvedic wisdom, each meal is prepared with sattvic (pure) intention—supporting your body through a focused 100-hour schedule and keeping your mind clear and light.
Our North Indian vegetarian menu is seasonal, nourishing and simple—designed to complement daily yoga practice, support recovery and sustain balanced energy throughout each day.
Once a week, enjoy a traditional North Indian sweet like halwa or kheer. Occasional festive dishes or Ayurvedic treats are offered during celebrations or cultural evenings.
Please inform us ahead of time about any special dietary needs. We are happy to accommodate you with love and care, in alignment with yogic and Ayurvedic principles.
Outside your training hours, Rishikesh offers a sacred landscape to explore—rich in nature, spirituality and culture. Whether you seek silence in the Himalayas, a dip in the Ganga, or a taste of local tradition, there’s something soul-nourishing for every practitioner.
The sacred energy of Rishikesh will enrich your time off the mat just as deeply as your 100-hour yoga study—offering inspiration, grounding and spaciousness.
