PILGRIMAGE TO

THE BIRTH PLACE OF YOGA




Is India calling you?


We invite you to immerse with us on a pilgrimage to the birth place of Yoga

This retreat is an opportunity; a calling to deepen your practice, further your understanding of Yoga and yourself.


Though studio classes can have a powerful effect on practitioners, there is no substitute for immersing yourself in a curated container to truly immerse in practice and empower the trajectory of our lives.

This retreat not only includes daily guided practice but we will also explore excursions to sacred and historical sites as well as immersion into Vedic fire and water rituals.

This journey is perfect for anyone looking to authentically access the cultural roots of Yoga, expand their personal practice and make space for a deep plunge into their connection to themselves.

There is no place on earth like Rishikesh and we cannot wait to share this magical place with you.
