The Indian culture has always been blessed with the sacred knowledge of yoga. Rishikesh is blessed with this Yogic culture and is a perfect setting to immerse oneself in it. This makes it our duty to spread this blessing thus making the world a healthy, happy and peaceful place to live in.
Our Yoga Teaching provides students with a lot of interactive sessions making Yoga practice easy to relate to. Yoga is the evolution of the mind consciously and practice of Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayama, Mantra, Meditation, Mudras, etc. these all are the keys to reach a blissful state and this can be obtained by understanding the concept of self-practice and self-awareness of body-mind.
At the Upasana Yoga School Yoga Teacher Training, we blend the traditional forms of yoga with modern explanations. This makes our teaching easy and approachable. This ancient knowledge of yoga reaches humanity by way of the Guru-Disciple tradition. So, we too follow this same tradition brought down by our great sages when we impart our knowledge and experience of yoga to you.
Be it Asana, Pranayama, Meditation or Mantra, the aim is to let the mind consciously move the body and achieve a natural flow. This creates a bridge between the body, mind and breath. Once this physical, mental & spiritual awareness is attained, the breath gets controlled and Energy/Prana-Shakti is channelized. One can now feel and understand the rhythm of life more easily and the delusion of thinking that Body and Mind are two different things is removed, because “the body is mind and mind is body”.
Our Upasana Yoga School also has a 100-hour teacher training segment or pre-teacher training course for explorers in search of a glimpse of what it is to be a yoga teacher. This is a short course that is mostly opted for by beginner students with limited time. We create space for you to follow your interest in the ancient ways of the yogis. You will be able to explore new science-based dimensions of the timeless Yoga practice.
The 200 Hour YTTC is a very popular and approachable applied yoga certification course among all the Yogis. This course will guide you from the basics to more advanced levels. Most yoga practitioners who wish to become certified yoga teachers start here. We are happy to share our knowledge and experience with you and welcome you to join us. in the eternal journey of yoga.

Her Philosophy on yoga teaches us beyond just physical well-being; it is more about unlocking the power of our subconscious mind. It is an exploration of our inner self that seeks to bring us closer to understanding our true nature. He states, “Yoga creates a rhythm between mind and body that leads to an understanding of our true self”. Guru Ji has dedicated his life to the practice of yoga and its philosophy, combining ancient teachings with modern-day techniques and tools to create an inclusive environment for all.
You are the greatest form of energy & that energy travels through several mediums (situations) before it takes the shape of your desired reality. No matter how difficult life is, you have the power to create your own destiny. Yoga is one way to achieve your desired reality as it taps into the source of your own inner power & awakens the yogi in you.
“Vesh, bhusha, aur bol se pare hai ek yogi, yogi ki asli pehchaan uski shakti se hoti hai.
Meaning: A yogi is beyond his looks and overall appearance since the real identity of a yogi comes from his power.”
The yogic journey starts with Hawan (fire ceremony) and Mantra Chanting to pray the Universe and Mother Earth to purify the energy of our surroundings. We pray to remember our Ancestors and Gurus asking for the blessing and guidance on the Yogic path.
Hawana Fire is the sign of transformation.
"Fire ritual", in Sanskrit is referred to as "Hawan" This is conducted in the beginning of the Teacher Training Programme as an opening ceremony.
Pranayama is the practice of increasing the “Vital Energy” “Lifeforce which is in constant motion through Breathing” well. Breathing is not just the function of the Lungs and Heart but is also related to one’s state of mind.
“Chiti jal pawak gangan sameera” - “Earth Water Fire Ether Air” “Panchrachit ati adham sareera” - “Five element constitute Body” According to the Ayurveda, these five great elements constitute the body and we get mixed up in these elements when we die.
“Chiti jal pawak gangan sameera” - “Earth Water Fire Ether Air” “Panchrachit ati adham sareera” - “Five element constitute Body” According to the Ayurveda.
TOur busy routine can get us to forget to spend time with ourselves. Meditation which also means reflection is one way to check your mental as well as your spiritual health.
In our Yoga Teacher Training In Rishikesh, we teach Shatkarma (yogic cleansing method) and Yogic diet that help detoxify the body.
Rishikesh is the place of spiritually dwelling….
Famous for the natural scenery, Rishikesh contains the essence of spirituality and tranquillity. The place is surrounded by the Himalayan mountain
range dissected by the serenity of the river Ganges. According to the traditional yogic texts, this creates the perfect atmosphere for the immersive practice of ancient and timeless yoga.
Rishikesh, a sacred place for yoga practitioners down through the ages, has been the destiny of sages who came to the Himalayas in their search for eternal truth by achieving Moksha, Nirvana, and Liberation. The vibrations created by countless yogis bless the maintains, rivers, and yoga halls nestled here to achieve the main aim and objective of Yoga. It's like having a strong wind pushing you towards the goal, effortlessly.

When it comes to Yoga, any place that manages to touch you internally , be it mental or emotional , is a good place to learn and to be grateful for and Upasana Yoga School is 1 such place. The people of this place, who manage it, run it & teach here- they are a family and they make you their family by the love & responsibility they share for their students. I'm someone who has done multiple TTCs and yet I was able to learn so much more especially from the Asana classes that are really good, technical & detailed. The excursions that they took us on are going to stay with us forever. The extra activities like sound healing and Kirtan were amazing experiences that were healing on so many different levels. We'll forever be grateful to Ashish ji, Tanu ji, Vinay ji, Rahul ji, Vikas ji, Shivam ji, Deepak, Prithvi, Arushi and the staff for their kindness and support.

I always wanted to do a Yoga teacher training course while I was teaching English abroad. My mum introduced me to the wonderful practice of yoga 10 years ago when I was 24 years old. No matter where I am in the world or whatever challenges I face, Yoga has always been my grounding practice. 18 months postpartum, after the birth of my miracle baby boy, I was searching for yoga courses and I gratefully came across the course by Upasana Yoga School. The content by Upasana Yoga School is extremely well spaced out, it is so helpful being a busy mum and I would look forward to my time every day when I would be able to practice an learn. The course is affordable and the guru’s have put through so much knowledge in helping us grow. It’s been a massive transformative journey with understanding myself and every aspect of Yoga. This course is highly recommended and if you have no intention of teaching yoga do this course for yourself. You will gain so much depth and a massive spiritual awakening that is life changing.

Just finished the 200H TTC and I am so grateful I choose this school. The teachers were amazing so knowledgeable and helpful. Throughout the course they would answer any question, go over and beyond to help me understand about asanas, yoga philosophy, anatomy, pranayama, meditation and offer their support whenever I needed to. I came here having experience of 3 years doing yoga and even in the first day I was blown away by how much I actually didn't know and how much more knowledge I could get out of this course. The facilities of the school were amazing, the food provided was always super tasty and made with so much care. And most importantly the psychological support and positive reinforcement I got from Ashish, Tanu and all the teachers really made me feel like I was part of their yoga family. If you are looking for not just a yoga class but a life changing experience you should book this school without a second thought.

It's a very complete course, not only the basics are covered, but they give you so many tips and advice for when you're teaching your own classes. You can ask anything at anytime, always a quick respons. Everyone is so helpful and understanding. I would recommend this course to everyone who wants to take their yoga to a deeper level! I can't wait to follow their courses on location!

I'm doing the 200 hours yoga teaching training course and I have been discovering that yoga is a lot more than I thought. It has been a rewarding and enchanting experience. All the teachers instruct very well and are so dedicated to what they do. I recommend the online course for people who can manage their own time, for you can study whenever you want, but there is a necessity to separate a time to the readings and videos, for in the course there is a lot of content, which I'm in love with.

A life changing experience to live. Teachers are amazing, highly professional and knowledgeable. If you are planning to create a discipline in your life with yoga, this is the place to be. The food is fully vegetarian and healthy with variety of meals. The institute is run by a family so you feel that in every step of your journey in the course, you have someone to take care of you. The accommodation is clean, hygienic and the cleaning service happens everyday, laundry service is also there in case you need.

Namaste 🙏 I've completed my 200 hours teacher training course at Upasana Yoga School. To begin with, searching for a good yoga institute is a daunting task. I'm super glad that I chose Upasana Yoga School - it is undoubtedly one of the best yoga institutes in Rishikesh. Period. I was awestruck by the sheer hardwork and sincerity by the staff and faculty to make you feel home and comfortable from day one. The teachers are really knowledgeable and are subject matter experts in their respective fields. Food was delicious and apt for yoga practice. The course was nicely balanced including theory and practicals with enough emphasis on teaching methodology. During our day offs, weekend excursions and fun events were organized, which really rejuvenated the mind and induced a sense of camaraderie among students. I would highly recommend Upasana Yoga School. Definitely coming back again in future for 300 hour course. Thanks! 🙂

If your practice is feeling a bit stagnant, Upasana Yoga School is the perfect place to reignite your passion for yoga. With experienced instructors and an open atmosphere, this yoga school provides an environment that promotes growth and self-discovery. In addition, I noticed one amazing thing about this Yoga School: they are not only limited to teachings but also take you on tour in and around Rishikesh. The classes are challenging but accessible, allowing you to take your practice to the next level. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced yogi, Upasana has something for everyone. The beautiful decor and calming energy make it the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day; even the food is delicious. You'll feel welcomed and at home when you step through the doors. With its commitment to providing high-quality instruction and creating an inclusive space, Upasana Yoga School is the perfect place to deepen your yoga practice. At least it was for me.
We prefer to communicate in English since we receive students from across the globe, so it becomes easier to converse in English. But we also love to teach some important words from the Hindi language since it is widely spoken in Rishikesh, like Namaskara (Hello), Dhanyawaad (Thank you), Swagatam (Welcome), and many more.
We provide books, manuals, and other essential study materials, including the cost you pay during the course. We don't charge anything extra.
It depends on the mode of transportation and the place you are coming from. Although we have provided the complete address on the website, you can reach us here by bus, train, cab, and through flight to Dehradun Airport. Rishikesh is 1.30 hours away from Dehradun by taxi or bus.
Yes, we take every necessary measure for our students regarding their health. We have connections with local doctors who are available for immediate assistance, along with a medicare team available 24*7 for our students and teachers.

There are usually 14-17 students in a single batch of a particular course.
You can apply for a tourist visa. As your chosen school for YTTC, it is our responsibility to guide and help you with visa assistance, but we aren't fully responsible for the same. We are limited to verbal assistance only. But if you apply for an e-tourist visa, that's even better and easy. Apply for a minimum of 30 days of tourist visa if you are applying for individual courses like 200 hour YTTC or 300 hour YTTC, but if you are applying for 500 hour YTTC, you should apply for a minimum of 60 days.
No, we provide a complete yoga kit; all you have to bring
along is the passion for learning & dedication toward
the course.
