I wasn’t sure what would happen in India, but I felt like it was the right place to come and receive my 300 hrs training. I am happy to say that the universe led me in the right direction. Dheru and Amit are very knowledgeable teachers who taught the class well but also gave me the individual attention needed to help me progress in my practice. They are also caring and kind teachers who had genuine concern for the students to be successful and to assist us as needed throughout the course. The anatomy teacher, Anant, is amazing. This is my least favorite subject but Anant used many various methods to help with relaying information and I felt happy to attend his class each day. Our meditation teacher, Swami Amarna gave various meditations each day, and was just a joy to spend time meditating with. I especially enjoyed his dancing and his overall jovial qualities. It’s a tough course but it’s packed with good information and quality teaching. The rooms are comfy. They are very spacious and clean. You have a separate room in the same hotel room from your roommate....so it’s not the same as most of the other schools here where you have to sleep in twin beds next to each other in the same room. You get a double bed, separate room. Also food is delicious and you can eat as much as you like. I’m really happy I came here and I’m very grateful to all the teachers for the mentoring and attention. Special thanks to Dheru (for taking me on an inversion journey) and Amit (your alignment class was amazing). Hope to see you all in the future time and again. HAR HAR MAHADEV!

Rishikesh Yogkulam® offers various courses varying from the Beginner Level to an Advanced Level. The classes are indoor and outdoor. The indoor classes are performed in the yoga hall at our yoga school. While the classes are going on, the windows are kept open so that students get fresh air and proper ventilation and can perform yoga with greater zeal. To keep the class away from disturbance, cell phones are prohibited in the yoga hall and unnecessary talking is also not allowed.
When the 300 hour teacher training in Rishikesh is at its end, the enrolled students will have the privilege to get handed a certificate from the yoga school. This certificate is of immense importance as this certificate states that these students have completed the course from that regarded association and institution. They are also approved to become yoga instructors if they wish to do so. This certificate is rewarded and verified by the Yoga Alliance, which has been the leading association of people in the yogic lifestyle for a long time.
Firstly, Rishikesh Yogkulam® averages a 3.5* rating on Book Yoga Retreats - I feel, from my personal experience, that this is a wholly wrong depiction of how amazing this school truly is. If I could give above 5 stars, I would!
This is a yoga school that does things right. Having been to several different schools for yoga & meditation across India and Nepal, I've realised that these guys are far and away the best among the lot. From the teachers, to the accommodation, to the quality of the course - you really shouldn't bother looking anywhere else! Their focus is on developing your asanas in the best way possible: the classes on alignment and teaching methodology are what makes this course incredibly unique.
You get a warm/personal welcome once you get to the school. The rooms are fabulous in every way - if you pick a shared room, then each of you are in a 'separate' room - you open the door, and there is one room. You go through another door to the second room. Attached to the rooms are a bathroom (WITH A RAIN SHOWER!) and balcony. For those of you in single rooms, you sometimes get a living room. Truly, the hotel they chose to host the courses was one of the best I stayed in throughout several months spent in India!
The yoga classes were also unsurpassed as I mentioned above - Dhirendra and Amit, the founders of the school, are far and away the best teachers out there who can ground you in how to be a great yoga practitioner AND a great yoga teacher. Dhirendra knew how to break down complicated poses during Hatha in a simplified, organized manner - I did poses I never knew I could do, and all the while I felt positive and encouraged! Amit's knowledge on alignment and his ability to break down Ashtanga into bite-sized, doable pieces would make even a beginner feel that they are the most accomplished yogi. Together, the both of them weaved amazing methodology to create a course that pushes you in terms of your practice, your ability to teach and your knowledge on alignment. There are very few schools and teachers out there who bother to make you understand how to align, both yourself and others. These two know the importance of these things and hence focus on it, particularly for the 300 hour training.
The other teachers - from pranayama to philosophy to anatomy - are also among the best teachers I have encountered. Pranayama methods were taught at both basic and advanced levels; philosophy tied together everything we had learnt and anatomy was done through an 'applied' manner such that it didn't feel like we were simply learning GCSE Biology and body systems. D and Amit have definitely chosen the best teachers across all of Rishikesh, and it truly shows in the way this course is executed.
The bottom line is - D and Amit are young, having broken away from being lead teachers in a different school to start their own school because they began to realise what was wrong with other schools and they wanted to do things right. They care. If you give them feedback, they work hard to remember and improve based on your suggestions. They remember what you need, and you always feel like you can go to them if anything goes wrong. They also go out of their way to entertain you, from taking you out on great excursions, or to a 'full' Indian wedding, or making it a point to celebrate birthdays in a special way - it is truly amazing, what these guys have created and I would highly advise everyone to sign up so they can get individualised attention.. before this school becomes famous (remember they are really new!) and more people get in on the action!
Note that this is an intense course - one that challenges you but also changes your very core. I would do it all over again.
If I can think of one thing that can be improved upon just to balance out my gushing, it would be the food. On some days it was bland. But this is such a minor thing and you can very easily pop into one of the wonderful restaurants or bakeries nearby to remedy your tastebuds! Loved the course, and loved my time here!

Thusly, an individual can genuinely find himself better when they indulge in yoga. Reflection is an ideal manner by which this information on self can be accomplished. The course incorporates numerous contemplation strategies that are incredible and powerful and help make a solid establishment.
There are not enough words to express the gratitude that I have for this wonderful school! I feel so privileged to have been granted the opportunity to learn from each and every teacher. The Asana classes were extremely in-depth and really helped me understand each pose in both Ashtanga and Hatha. The classes were definitely challenging, but the growth I experienced was worth every drop of sweat. The alignment and adjustment class was invaluable, giving me a detailed understanding of how to achieve each pose and helping me understand how to break down a pose to make it achievable for my students. As a yoga teacher, attending this class really helped me feel more confident and prepared to help my students. The Philosophy class gave me a much better understanding of all aspects of yoga and I truly came to know and understand what the ultimate purpose of teaching yoga is. Pranayama class was definitely an experience all on its own. Not only did we learn about several pranayama techniques, but we also did them all practically with the guidance of the teacher. Anatomy and physiology gave me a better grasp of the muscles and systems being activated as I moved through the asanas in Hatha and Ashtanga classes. Yoga therapy and Ayurveda class gave me a different perspective on health, diet, and healing that I truly appreciate. Meditation was a very practical approach where we experienced multiple types of meditation techniques, including active meditations. Each experience was different and gave me ways to make meditation accessible to all types of students. The 300 hour course was extremely well rounded and I feel that I am walking away with growth mentally, physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually as both a student and a teacher.
The excursions were extremely fun and I felt that I bonded with the teachers and other students on these trips. From hiking to a waterfall, going white water rafting (even though it was freezing), experiencing a meditation cave and having fun out by the Ganga, and watching a beautiful sunrise over the Himalayas. Each experience was unique and amazing.
The teachers really care and truly want each student to walk away as a better teacher of yoga. I feel like I have a family in Rishikesh now. The people I've met, the experiences I have had, the knowledge I have gained and the changes I have felt within me are a part of me now and I am forever grateful for this month of training.
I highly recommend this yoga teacher training to any yoga teacher or student seeking growth from teachers that pour their hearts into the knowledge they are sharing. This is an experience that will last a lifetime.

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 Astanga Vinyasa yoga style created in the 20th century by Krishna Pattabhi is a modern form of the classical art of yoga. This style of yoga is linked with movements called vinyasa, which involves body movements and simultaneous breathing. It is a great form to increase flexibility.
The style is propagated by Pattabhi Jois, who learnt it from his teacher "Tirumalai Krishnamacharya". To expand it, Jois started his own Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute in the year 1948. Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is an energetic style which works by getting breath synchronising with movements. Every single asana of the series is directly linked with flowing movements or Vinyasa.

Pranayama, the age-old practice is the finest way to get ourselves free from these hurdles. It releases the flow of prana or life energy.

In yoga philosophy, God is described as a special power who remains unaffected by tribulation, karma, result, ideal, culture, etc. 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.
