Rishikesh Vinyasa Yoga School

"Coming here was one of best decisions of my life – no doubt in that!"

"When I decided to come Rishikesh and take 200 hours Astanga Vinyasa and Vinyasa Flow Teacher Course, my friends in Estonia were happy but a bit worried too. “Will you get really what you dream about?”, they asked. And hoped that I will."

"Now I can say that I got 1000% more I hoped!"

"From first moment this course was challenging -either mentally and physically. I learned how to push myself out from comfort zone and give myself more stretch…more stretch….some moooooooooooore stretch, more strength, more flexibility – with loooooooots of sweating..and enjoying it! ☺ It taught me to get to know borders of my body and also the fact that there are no borders. But you cannot learn these things without friendly and very professional support from best teachers. That’s what our teachers were ☺. Whatever we did in Vinyasa Flow and Ashtanga Yoga class and tested how far can we go, I felt all the time: nothing bad can happen with our spines, wrists or knees because we are in really good hands. It was good feeling and I would really devote to giving that feel to my yoga pupils in the future."

"The course really turned me to a yoga trainer. Inexperienced and “green” yoga trainer but definitely trainer. It didn’t only teach how to do asanas yourself but also how to help others with asanas – how to correct others, different variations of asanas – for those who can’t do harder variant. It taught how to help and be with every person who may come to my own training class in the future. Thank you, Rajesh! And thank you,Yashpal!!! And thank you for not being only super-good teachers but also persons with warmest and caring soul!"

"The course was really like good yoga-shower within only a month: we were really taken “to roots of yoga” as much as possible with that short time. Thank you, Satpal, for trying to make us understand such huge and deep topic as yoga philosophy within only a month! You really gave us clear stair-steps to put our legs on – when we start climbing ourselves."

"Meditation class was always one of biggest day-makers. As soon as Vicky entered to the class, the room was full of smiley sunshine. He made us chant mantras, he made us sing, he made us clapping our hands and laugh but at the same time he very professionally gave more understanding about different forms of meditation and meaning of meditation itself. Thank you,Vicky !"

"For me our anatomy teacher Ajay is a real “miracle-man”. There are over 600 muscles in a human body, there are bones in our bodies, nerves and ligaments and joints aaaand… . How to give 9 people orientation in all of that stuff! But what Ajay did? He just didn’t let us chance NOT to understand how our body works when making asanas: when and which and why different muscles are working and which way. How we use our bones and how they support us in different postures. He didn’t give us bunch of terms in in Latin language to study and know by heart the day after tomorrow. No! He made the topic logical and made us really understand the thing. And he also gave us so many useful tips about taking care our whole health , eating habits, drinking habits, sitting habits. It all helps us to become a better yoga trainer – I really feel it! And within all of that intensive and large topic Ajay always found warm heart and good humor for us. Thank you for that!"

"Thank you, teachers, for also introducing us Rishikesh! For taking us to different places in that beautiful holy town! Thank to Rishikesh Vinyasa Yoga School for really comfortable and cozy accommodation – it has become real Home! And to our chief – my stomach will never ever forget you! "

"The School and teachers are excellent. I didn't stay in the school but I saw that the conditions are good. I strongly reccommend this school because the teachers and the techniques they teach are amazing. We also did some activities together which create bonds between students. We went to meditate at sunset, admire the sunrise, watch pooja and special celebrations in very cool places. From what I browse in Rishikesh, this school practice the best prices with the best quality! Namaste."

"Trip to Rishikesh was the best thing that happened in my life, and I would cherish the moments for the rest of my life. Teachers in yoga school were amazing, very competent, helpful and friendly. I was so pleased with the significant improvement of my yoga practice in a month time. It would not have been possible without great help and effort of all teachers, especially Yashpal and Rajesh. We learned a lot about Vedic philosophy. Teachers motivated us all the time to live a life with full consciousness and power of will. I would recommend Rishikesh Vinyasa Yoga school to anyone who is looking for life changing spiritual experience in life. Intense yoga, great temples, riverside, delicious food, friendly people, rafting, Ayurvedic massage, astrologer, book shops are all incredible stuff you get to experience in Rishikesh. "

They are genuine yogis & inspiring teachers who take you through an amazing journey with your practice. This is a real yoga immersion experience that I would definitely do again & again. Entire staff is helpful and pleasant, accommodation is pretty comfy and location is so serene which serves the great purpose. This is one of the best non-commercial schools around the city."

"I loved everything, the food, the place, the atmosphere but most of all the teachers and their teaching. I learned a lot from anatomy to philosophy, mantra, meditation, Ayurveda, discipline and of course yoga. But I also felt part of their family; I will never forget this experience. If you want to do TTC Ashtanga Vinyasa don’t look any further. "

"It was one of the best months in my life! I was surrounded with care, amazing people, spiritual atmosphere and of course YOGA! To be honest, I liked everything in this school!"

"First of all I was really impressed by the team of our teachers (actual founders). They are soooo kind, full of yoga spirit, calm and patient. Program was well balanced between practice and theory classes, so we could understand the base of yoga philosophy, anatomy and of course meditation and mantra chanting. We lived in good rooms, they were clean and cozy, i really liked the design in the hotel. The meals were very very tasty, chef always tried to surprise us, tried to prepare something new, unusual for us. we spent month in family atmosphere, full of friendship, sun and joy. I think I've been to one of the best places all over the world, thanks to Rishikish Vinyasa school. I hope to come back) So, if I had to choose again, I wouldn't have a doubt! "

"200-hour residential Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga teacher training course registered with Yoga Alliance, USA at yoga school Rishikesh vinyasa yoga school. My concept of "yoga" was transformed from the Western physical activity to the spiritual Indian experience. It's a perfect introduction to the complex discipline that is Yoga--and it is explained in a friendly way. I would totally recommend this course to anybody who is interested in learning about the self and Indian culture. "

"Are you looking for an "Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga teacher training"?? Then Rishikesh Vinyasa Yoga School is for you!"

"I ended up in this school after the school I already booked cancelled the course, and it was a fantastic surprise! Only one month before the beginning, I found myself with everything booked (planes, hotels, trains and more for a trip afterwards), a special permission at work... But no training! In the middle of Christmas I had to find a place to go in the very specific dates and with a programme that suited me!!! Now that everything is done I can say that I couldn't have been luckier!!!!"

"Rishikesh vinyasa yoga school offers YTT focused on ashtanga vinyasa yoga style. I personally found the programme great and well balanced between all the theory classes and the yoga practice. One of the best things for a good learning experience was the fact that the group is very very reduced, this allowed us to have the best attention in every class. The teachers and actual founders of the school were simply amazing! Very kind, calm, experienced and full of patience. They made us feel at home since the very first minute, actually, on Sundays they took us out to different places so we could enjoy like a family day all together!! Thanks to all the teachers, specially to Yash, I'll never forget your classes! "

"It is located in upper Tapovan, on the opposite side of Laxshman Jhula, this gave us the opportunity of living in a peaceful area within 10-15' walk from all the hustle and bustle of town. The place is basically a big house with 2-3 rooms for the Ayurvedic clinic, 7 bedrooms, the yoga hall, kitchen and eating area, garden and a roof top terrace (which I used a lot!). The rooms with ensuite bathroom are very spacious and clean. Vegetarian meals are also served in the school and they are absolutely DELICIOUS!! (we used to compliment the chef after every single one). Another very helpful thing was the opportunity of using the washing machine."

"loved the casual feel of this important spiritual town in north india.. besides visiting the sadhus, the ashrams and doing yoga in the mornings we took time to trek to the Vashishtha Cave where a great sage sat and meditated many hundreds of years ago. Yoga classes were highly recommended and were worth it. worth staying a while and absorbing the vibes of this amazing place."

"I will start by saying that I have not trained at this school, rather at another - still in Rishikesh, and under Yashpal Routela. Thus I can vouch for Routelaji as one of the most brilliant, well prepared and well rounded instructors. Compassionate, patient, helpful, dedicated and generous in sharing his vast knowledge - the month with him certainly helped bring my practice - and of my colleagues - to a whole new level. He has vision and he has smarts, he won't throw at you common places, albeit utterly respectful of tradition he will encourage you to make of yoga whatever you will, to suit your own. His classes are physically challenging, but also fun-filled - we had some of the best laughs together; he also never forgets safety in alignment. I can't think of anyone I would have wanted more as my asana teacher. Thank you, guruji."

"I did my 200 Hour Vinayasa-Ashtanga yoga teacher training course at RVYS Oct-2015. It was a great gift to improve my teaching skills and developing myself into a Yoga Instructor. Finally i got certification and now i have got a job too. Hurryyy! I would surely recommend it to people who wish to join small group and get personalized attention. Food was awesome , provided accommodation was impressive more than basic. Also i was given chance to experience local sight seeing and a visit to near by hill station."

The training coach Yashpal is the one of the best yoga coaches I have come across. His technique and detail explanation on each asana is unique and ver helpful in learning about the asana. I highly recommend him as ashtanga and vinyasa teacher."

"Before joining an intensive 200 Hour yoga alliance certification program i inquired with many school about course curriculum and somehow most of school have similar teaching pattern. Long search but finally selected one. Why to do yoga teacher training at Rishikesh Vinyasa School is summarized here. With my experiences of learning and become a certified yoga teacher I would like to share with you. The nutshell if you are serious about yoga teacher training course and becoming a yoga teacher then you should look at points below rather than comparing the fees:Quality of teachersCourse curriculum / course contentsTeacher student ratioInternational validity of the certificateFeedback from the ex-studentsPost course supportCourse compliance with International standardsThere are many yoga ashrams / schools providing yoga teacher training courses for cheap prices especially in Rishikesh, India but most of them are not well managed, teachers are not well qualified, mostly just trying to get students by offering cheap prices. Always make sure to check the feedback from ex-students before enrolling.Best of luck!! My experience with Rishikesh Vinyasa Yoga School was one of the great learning experience and finally i am teacher. Thank you team at Rishikesh Vinyasa Yoga School."
