100-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India
Deepen your practice in the birthplace of yoga, framed by the Ganges and the Himalayan foothills.
10 DAYS on the Banks of the Ganges → Yoga Capital of the World 🇮🇳
YOGA ALLIANCE INTERNATIONAL
Join our 100hr Yoga TTC (Yoga Alliance International certified),
on the banks of the spiritual Ganges, Himalayan foothills
Our flagship training happens where it all began — on the banks of the sacred Ganges, in the town that has drawn yogis and seekers for centuries. Days are structured around traditional ashram rhythms: early rises, disciplined practice, and evenings spent in satsang or by the river.This is the most immersive, tradition-rooted version of our 100-hour program.
Every one of our locations teaches the same Yoga Alliance curriculum — but Rishikesh is the only one where that curriculum didn’t travel to get there. This is the town modern yoga radiates outward from: the ashrams that shaped it, the teachers who codified it, and the river considered its spiritual source are all a short walk from the shala.Training here means learning inside the tradition, not a recreation of it.
Certification is RYS 100 through Yoga Alliance International, recognised worldwide.

Who This Course Is For
Why Train With Us
Small, Personalized Groups
We intentionally keep our class sizes small so every student receives individual attention and feedback — not just from lead teachers, but throughout every session.
Experienced, Dedicated Faculty
Each subject — asana, philosophy, anatomy, meditation — is taught by a teacher who specializes in that area, giving you focused, expert instruction rather than a single generalist covering everything
A Genuine Residential Experience
This isn't a drop-in class package. You'll live, eat, practice, and study alongside fellow students in an environmentbuilt specifically for immersive learning.
A Real Stepping Stone
If you decide later that you want to pursue full teacher certification, your 100 hours count toward your 200-hour training — you won't be starting from scratch.
