Rishikesh, India

16th - 24th October 2027 - 10 Year Anniversary Trip

Immerse with us on a pilgrimage to the birth place of Yoga.

We have been traveling to Rishikesh for 10 years to honour the cultural and historic background of Yoga practice.

Each time we return, we not only discover more depth in our holistic understanding of Yoga but find ourselves immersing in a container that supports deep self reflection and an embodied experience of devotion.

Rishikesh is nestled between the Himalayan mountains and the river Ganges, surrounded by nature whilst also being slightly separate from the hustle and bustle of Rishikesh.

You will be led through unique twice daily practices you won't find in public classes. We will facilitate rich discussions about yoga philosophy and take you to our favourite places where we have formed lasting relationships.

The excursions and experiences we lead you through have been refined through our years of consistent pilgrimage to this special place. Whether it is the great sage Vasistha's sacred cave or our favourite local chai wallah, you will feel the enduring relationships we have formed over the past decade.

This offering is for anyone looking to honour the cultural roots of Yoga and Northern India, deepen their experience of practice and make time for themselves.

If a picture is a thousand words, our video is a whole story of our love affair with Rishikesh. To get a true feel for our time away, watch below.

We have the privilege of our beloved Pandit Baskaran (a master of Yajna/fire and the Himalayan tradition) joining us for the entire immersion.

Pandit Ji has been a teacher and a support on our Indian immersions for the last decade and he is someone who is a rare embodiment of joy, devotion and connection.

Connecting with Pandit Ji is a gift in our lives and we are delighted to share this very unique opportunity with you.

"The India trip was one I will never forget. I had barely been overseas before and, even though I was a little scared, this retreat was more incredible than I could have imagined. The whole experience is one I will treasure and I hope I get to do it again!"

Where we'll stay

We'll be based at Hotel Veda Inn — nestled between the Himalayan mountains and the river Ganges, surrounded by nature and slightly separate from the hustle and bustle of Rishikesh. The hotel will be newly renovated in time for our arrival.

For our retreat, every room is a King room with its own ensuite, air conditioning and ceiling fan — either overlooking the surrounding mountains or with a private balcony over the street below.

Rooms are available as Single or Twin share, each with the choice of one king bed or two large singles.

Our yoga studio/shala is on the first floor of our hotel.
