Some Main Topics
The two words, "Ha" (Sun) and "Tha" (Moon), make up the word "Hatha," which is of Sanskrit origin. Hatha Yoga simply means a stubborn or rigid type of yoga. This type of yoga is for maintaining the balance between the body, mind, and spirit. Hatha Yoga includes a complete set of physical postures, or asanas, with different breathing techniques. It is an ancient technique that has been practiced by people for a long time. Lord Shiva, also known as Adiyogi, discovers yoga and all its styles. So you can link Hatha yoga to Shaivism, but later on, Siddhas and Naths continue the tradition. The followers of Goraknath were also involved in this practice. Hatha Yoga is an essential style of yoga if you are at the beginner level.
Hatha Yoga is way more than doing asanas in a continuous series. It is actually a divine way to attain the finest stage of salvation. Hatha is also practiced to purify the Pingla Nadi (connected with the sun energy of the body) and the Ida Nadi (connected with the moon energy of the body). Nadis are also known as the energy channels of the body.
Rishikesh Yogkulam conducts a beginner-level course of 200 hours of yoga teacher training in Rishikesh. The course explains Hatha Yoga through theoretical and practical classes taught by experienced gurus of the school. We also assist you in getting the most out of Hatha Yoga by doing it in the most enjoyable way possible.
Vinyasa Yoga simply helps you link every asana with breathing. It tells you how to move from one posture to another by making the right synchronization of the breath. The thing that makes a Vinyasa class different from other yoga classes is that no two Vinyasa classes are alike. There are a variety of postures in the Vinyasa style of yoga. The sequence is the same, but there is always variation in the asanas.
Surya Namaskar, also known as a "Sun Salutation," is the most common yet most complex type of Vinyasa style. While performing Surya Namaskar, proper attention is given to the inhalation and exhalation processes. Its every movement is maintained by the inhalation and exhalation of the breath.It is highly beneficial for keeping you active while maintaining your health. Whether it's about physical fitness, mental fitness, or emotional growth, Vinyasa Yoga is the best in every aspect.
Rishikesh Yogkulam's 200-Hour Yoga TTC in Rishikesh includes theoretical and practical classes in the Vinyasa Style of Yoga. The theoretical class explains the origin of Vinyasa yoga and how it evolved over time. The practical class helps you gain the confidence to perform and teach vinyasa asanas with confidence.
The word Ashtanga is a Sanskrit word, formed by the combination of two words, "Ashta," which means "eight," and "Anga," which means "limb." It is an eight-limb yoga technique that paves the way to the path of Samadhi. These eight limbs are also mentioned in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The second part of Dwitya Pada, Sadhana Pada of Patanjali Yoga Sutras, states the shloka, "Yama-niyama-asana-pranayama-pratyahara-dharana-dyana-samadhyaya-astavangani," which means "Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayama, Pratyahara, Dharana, Dhyana, and Samadhi are the eight limbs of Yoga.".
Maharishi Patanjali has called yoga the oldest technique to stabilize the restlessness of the mind. In the Yoga Sutras, he describes the eight-limbed Ashtanga Yoga for physical, mental, and spiritual purification, along with complete well-being. The 200-hour yoga teacher training course in Rishikesh demands rigorous strength and flexibility.
Rishikesh Yogkulam conducts 200 Hours Yoga in Rishikesh, covering Ashtanga Yoga. The class starts with the third limb of the Ashtanga style, i.e., asana. Asana is a class of physical workouts that gives you mental, emotional, and spiritual satisfaction.
Mental health is as important as physical health. You do much to keep yourself physically fit, but how about staying mentally fit? It also needs proper exercise. Meditation is a practice that assists you in developing a calm and fit mind. It builds strong mental fitness. But if you are thinking that it is as simple as it seems, then you definitely need to understand that it is much more than a set of various exercises. It is a technique that necessitates focused attention and awareness.
When your chitta, or soul, is in good health, you can concentrate on any task, including exercise. The 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh describes various types of meditation. From making you relax to reducing anxiety and stress, meditation is believed to be a tool to improve overall health and fitness. It is not a new practice; indeed, it has been practiced by sages and saints long ago. They use it as a powerful tool to remove hindrances and obstacles in their path.
The practice of meditation doesn't seem easy, but we ensure that we make it easy for you. The well-trained masters of meditation teach you and help you build focus and concentration during the 200-Hour Yoga TTC in Rishikesh. Teachers and professionals at Rishikesh Yogkulam will assist you in this journey, making your 100-Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh more beneficial and successful. Stay calm and keep practicing to perform it with greater benefits.
Pranayama is a Sanskrit word formed from two words: "Prana" means "life energy,", and "Yama" means "control." Thus, pranayama is the practice of controlling life force or energy. It regulates the breath and is an essential practice for maintaining physical and mental wellness. Pranayama includes a particular sequence of inhalation, holding, and exhalation. The practice frees you from disturbing emotional, spiritual, and mental cycles. Doing it regularly will bring positive changes to your whole body.
Pranayama can be performed alone as a single class or practice and can also be practiced with yoga like asanas (yoga postures) and dhyana (meditation). Pranayama itself is a beneficial practice, but when it gets involved with other activities, it provides a large number of benefits. It is due to the effects of breathing exercises and mindfulness activities. The ultimate goal of pranayama is to build a connection between your body and mind while supplying enough oxygen to your body and removing toxins. The benefits are not only physical but also psychological.
When you read about pranayama, you find it to be a simple practice of three steps. The practice starts by breathing in, proceeds by holding it for a few microseconds, and ends by breathing out. Though it seems simple, it is not, and you definitely need a trainer to start practicing it. At Rishikesh Yogkulam, professional trainers or teachers help you by giving you the proper guidance and teachings to let you perform Pranayama with ease.

Rishikesh Yogkulam served to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. Originally, while searching for schools in India, I felt overwhelmed with the amount of schools in the city that all had the same outline. I chose Yogkulam after hearing horror stories about fake schools and scams and found Yogkulam through Instagram, Facebook and the official website with all of the information I needed to confirm its authenticity. They included in their fees airport pickup (which is amazing when entering a foreign country) a single or shared room with a comfortable full size bed, and private bathroom (all of which is pretty unique for a school in Rishikesh). Having a place for yourself to relax and recuperate I found is essential to your well-being, as getting sick or feeling absolutely exhausted is a common problem. The food actually served to be quite amazing. Of course, it could get a little tiring after eating it for several weeks, but it was comparably as great as anything you would eat outside of the school. As for the teachers, I can not begin to explain my love for them individually and as a whole. What makes this program so great is how you become part of their family so quickly. This is a relatively new school, but although they may be young, they are well trained, dedicated, and enthusiastic people. Their goal is to make sure that you grow as a person - mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Many other schools seem like factories just pulling out certificates and upping their reviews. Yogkulam was there to individualize the experience to make it fit your needs. The class sizes are small, and there are 2 studios which splits up the classes to be even smaller, which means you get personal, one on one, attention. Not many schools can ever give you this type of structure. These teachers are attentive and passionate, which makes getting to know them an even greater reward. Every single class was full of laughter, random silly questions, cultural immersion, and strength building. Amit and Dee, the leaders and creators of this facility, are renowned for their work, and created the program to make sure you are learning all aspects of yoga correctly and fluidly. Amit is so knowledgable, and he's willing to help with any question, concern, problem or difficulty your facing. He looks at the body as a structure, and taught alignment and adjustment in such a professional perspective that I now see flaws in myself and in others methodically. Dee, on the other hand, pushed me to limits that I was not willing to push myself to. I swear, he was trying to kill me at first, but he proved to me that I was capable of much more, and for the first time, I was able to achieve poses I never thought I could (and also chaturanga with my new muscles :P) Manu, a great friend and even greater educator, made anatomy and physiology so engaging and was an amazing example of how every teacher should structure a classroom environment. Every teacher in this school showed an immense amount of passion and care for what they taught and your relationship with them. Between the laughter, tears, body aches, and adventures, my course flew by me with unforgettable memories. I'm ever so thankful for this program, and I hope to share my yoga practice and make Yogkulam proud. LOVE YOU GUYS

Namastè to every soul looking for a Yoga TTC in Rishikesh!
I just finished my 200hours by Rishikesh Yogkulam- (Family) in March 2019.
When I hear people saying:" oh TTC change my life" I couldn't actually really understand why for everything this month was so Powerfull. Now that I have experienced and practices, I can say that for me, never in my life before I have taken one full month for myself, to go deeply into myself and better know me. That is actually what yoga is and bring you, here in the best way possible:
Young, professional and qualify teacher are waiting to share their knowledge with you!
It seems an advertise, I know, but it's actually what you will find here ( they didn't pay me, I swear!). When I was looking for a school I start asking people and everyone was given me a different advise, so I was becoming crazy and just looking on the website every school seems amasing ( actually marketing reach also this holy place).
I find out a good girl from my country that take so much time for me helping me to compare the different schools and we end up on choosing Rishikesh Yogkulam. She was so kind with me that I just trust on her.
And this was an amazing decision because is not just about how they care to teach you or the perfect schedule they have, for me was almost more how they are as people, how they decide to share with us and take care of us in everything (any food problem, rooms problem, knee problem).
You can see and feel that they just do their best to give you the best experience here in India: not just about yoga but also about Indian traditional culture (bringing you to Aarti, temple, weddings when possible, whatching bollywood movies or just chatting and answering your question during all the meals!).
So is like a bath in the Holy Ganga and in Indian culture and obviously into YOGA:
All is organised in very good ways and the food with Sashi is super balanced and healthy.
So I want to thanks all the teacher of the school because from everyone I have learned so much.
So beautiful lost soul looking for a TTC comes to Rishikesh Yogkulam before this young guys become too famous and increase their price

I have just finished my 200hr with Yogkulum and I can’t thank them enough for everything! I was recommended the school by a previous student and knew I was going to have a good time because she was so excited... well now I’m that student and I’m recommending anyone thinking of doing a course to join Yogkulum. The teachers are so professional and so inspiring, such young guys with so much knowledge and determination to make this school grow. The BEST thing (other than the teachers) is the small groups, you get much more from a yoga course when the group is small and you can ask more personal questions. There were just 4 in the 200hr group which was perfect, also 4 in the 300hr and we really became a family. The teachers are all so unique, they are easy to talk to and there is no ego! I have to say Dee is now my favorite yoga teacher of all time... I felt that he really understood each student - he’s very observant. The way he handles people in adjustments is incredible... trying to do it the same way seemed impossible but I’ll get it one day! 😂 thank you Manu for making anatomy class fun! Thanks Mohit for philosophy which was so interesting and never difficult to understand. Sonu was an amazing Hatha teacher and so adorable. I’ll never forget Dance meditation with Rohit! 😂Amit I loved your classes it’s a shame we didn’t get to have more time with u but thank u so much for being so helpful in making this happen for me. Thank you to all the yogkulum team, for teaching us valuable life lessons and for having fun with us. Dance parties, mountain trekking, birthday treats and much more! One of the most challenging but best months of my life. Forever grateful! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Get Healed From Inner
In the journey of life, we encounter various experiences that shape who we are. While some moments bring joy and fulfillment, others can leave a profound impact on our emotional well-being. Past traumas, stress, grief, and anger, if left unresolved, can create blockages within our bodies, potentially leading to mental and physical illnesses. However, there is hope in the form of Emotional Release Treatment. This powerful therapeutic approach combines the use of Deep Acupressure points with Energized Breathing to facilitate the release of pent-up emotions and promote holistic healing.
Understanding Emotional Release Treatment.
Emotional Release Treatment is a therapeutic process designed to address the emotional and energetic imbalances that reside within us. It acknowledges that unexpressed emotions can manifest as physical and mental ailments, disrupting our overall well-being. This treatment approach recognizes the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and emotions, seeking to restore balance by encouraging the healthy expression and release of stored emotions.
The Role of Deep Acupressure Points.
Deep Acupressure points, also known as acupoints or energy meridians, are specific locations on the body that are believed to carry and regulate the flow of energy, or "qi." In Emotional Release Treatment, skilled practitioners apply gentle pressure to these points, stimulating the body's energy pathways and promoting the release of emotional blockages. By accessing these points, the treatment aims to restore the natural flow of energy, alleviating tension and facilitating emotional release.
The Power of Energized Breathing.
Energized Breathing is a technique that involves breathing deeply and rhythmically to increase oxygen intake and activate the emotional center of the brain, this helps body's relaxation response, reduce stress levels, and facilitate emotional healing. Conscious and intentional breathing patterns are practiced to encourage a deep sense of relaxation and release. As the breath is consciously directed, it helps to calm the mind, release stored tension, and facilitate the processing of emotions.
The Benefits of Emotional Release Treatment.

The most notable Ganga Aarti in Rishikesh is hung on the waterway bank at Parmarth Niketan ashram. They think that it's significantly more otherworldly. Rather than being performed by pandits, the Ganga Aarti at Parmarth Niketan is coordinated and performed by ashram occupants, especially the youngsters considering the Vedas there. The function initiates with the singing of bhajans (reverential melodies), petitions, and a hawan (a decontaminating and holy custom that happens around a fire, with the contributions made to Agni, the fire god).

Sage Vasishtha, one of the revered Seven Sages and author of Rigveda's Mandala 7, stands out as a figure steeped in Vedic history. He once decided to suicide in River Ganga due to the loss of his beloved youngsters. Still, Goddess Ganga denied his self-destruction, so he spent his life in a cave with his wife near the same location, and eventually, a small ashram was built around that cave. In 1930, Swami Purshottamanand sought a haven of tranquility for those searching for profound reflection in the ashram. So he dedicated himself to preserving and sustaining the natural beauty that sprouted around Vashistha Yoga Ashram - where people from all over flock today to discover their inner power amidst nature's wonders.

Hatha Yoga is an ancient form of yoga with varied benefits. The different holistic techniques of the yoga style help control the mind. Asanas in Hatha style are done at a slow to medium pace and are required to be held for a particular time. It helps you prepare for deep meditation, helps improves your health, and increases happy thoughts.
Hatha in Sanskrit means pressure or force. That's why "hatha yoga" means a yoga posture in which physical force and physical pressure are applied. It can be understood in this way, the yoga in which there is a balance of both body and mind is called hatha yoga. Pranayama, Mantra Chanting, Asanas, and Mudras get covered in Hatha style.
Krishna Pattabhi discovered the modern form of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in the 20th century. He even makes it popular with the people of the present time. Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga combines various bodily movements with breathing. It is a great way to increase flexibility.
The style is propagated by Pattabhi Jois, who learned it from his teacher, Tirumalai Krishnamacharya. To expand on this, Jois started his own Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute in the year 1948. Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is an energetic style that works by getting the breath to synchronize with the movements. Every single asana of the series is directly linked with flowing movements or vinyasa. The style used in current teaching is known as the "Mysore Style," as it originally originated in Mysore. It further gives rise to various other styles of Power Yoga.
Pranayama is one such technique that our forefathers devised as a gift to mankind. If we talk about pranayama, then it is the fourth of the eight limbs of yoga. In ancient times, people used to practice it regularly and remain healthy. Pranayama has a special place and importance in Ashtanga Yoga. In Maharishi Patanjali's Ashtanga Yoga, it is written in the fourth pada, "Pranasya Ayam: Iti Pranayama:" This means pranayama is the expansion of prana, or life energy.
Pranayama is a combination of the words "Prana" and "Ayama." Prana means life force, which keeps our body alive and through which our body gets energy. Our body gets energy when we inhale and exhale prana, i.e., air. "Dimension" means to give direction or to change. When we draw the Prana Vayu, we gain control over its direction. We change its dimensions according to our wishes. The speed at which normal breath comes and goes remains constant. But in pranayama, we establish control over the speed of our breathing (stop breathing); that is called pranayama.
This propagates the idea of yoga as a way of thinking that benefits from repetition. The yoga philosophy, or the way of thinking about yoga, helps you achieve harmony and tranquilly in life and brings unending joy, physical and mental stability, and great thinking power. This course will help you understand the philosophy behind yoga.
The founder of yoga philosophy is Maharishi Patanjali. Yoga philosophy is one of the six theistic philosophies (Shad Darshanas). The first book of this philosophy is the Yoga Sutras. Seshwara Sankhya, or Theistic Sankhya, is another name for yoga philosophy because it accepts almost all the beliefs of Sankhya in relation to life and the world. Also, it accepts the existence of God. God is described in yoga philosophy as a special power that is unaffected by tribulation, karma, result, ideal, culture, and so on. Its function is not to provide liberation, but only to remove obstacles from the path of the seeker. The Bhagavad Gita is also called Yoga Shastra, i.e., the manual of yoga.
While performing certain asanas, you might feel stress on your muscles. Don't worry if you feel this way because it is normal. Wear and tear on joints and muscles while getting into the practice of yoga is not big. No matter whether you're a beginner or experienced, you can experience some sudden or sharp pain in a particular pose. This can sometimes lead to injuries. Don't get scared! To avoid the risk of injuries and pain, alignment classes are practiced.
So, exactly what is an alignment class? In an alignment class, you will learn the precise and ideal way to perform any given pose so that you can get maximum benefits from it and minimise the risk of injury. It normalises the use of props and modifications during yoga asanas. When you get to know alignment, then you can make any pose work for you.
Shatkarma, in the perspective of yoga, means cleansing. For the purification of the internal body, the practice done in Hatha Yoga is known as Shatkarma. The origin of the word is from the combination of these two words: "shat" and "karma." In this, Shat means six, and Karma means actions. Thus, Shatkarma means 'six actions." In the Gherand Samhita, Maharishi Gherand describes six shatkarmas as the first part of yoga. They believe that without the practice of shatkarma, no seeker can achieve success on the path of yoga.
Shatkarmas have a special purpose in our lives. It protects us from various types of diseases. Today, the whole world is spending billions of dollars on finding ways to prevent and cure dangerous diseases. But there is no permanent solution to any disease or ailment. One of the primary reasons for this is the failure to address the underlying cause of the disease or illness.
The anatomy and physiology of yoga are related to the medical benefits of this ancient art on the muscles, bones, and entire anatomy of the individual. The extraordinary yoga poses that are focused on the various life structures and restrictions of the body are considered here.
Anatomy is a branch of science dealing with the bodily structure of a living being. You will get a complete understanding of the inner structure and the movements associated with each pose. It revolves around the layers of the body, the mind, and the energies flowing in the body. In simple words, yoga anatomy teaches you everything in relation to body organs, tissues, muscles, and so on. Yoga physiology is the branch of science that explains how organisms work.It makes you understand the basic functioning of the cell and living beings at the molecular level. In simple words, physiology is about learning yoga asanas, breathing techniques, and more.
Meditation is an important part of yoga. It relaxes the entire body by calming the mind. You need to sharpen your skills in meditation. It helps to stay stress-free and acquire those skills to the best of one's capabilities.
You can help yourself eliminate stress from your life by practicing meditation on a regular basis. In the present time, disorders of mental health like anxiety and depression are common. It then disturbs your daily routine. Meditation is not always about closing your eyes and focusing on a single point. It sometimes also includes listening to your breath or the sound of birds clearly while in the posture of dhyana, or meditation, but when you do not experience anything else while in this posture, then you are in the right state of meditation.
