Welcome home, yogis!
“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the single candle will not be shortened.”

Nothing gives us more joy and purpose than being able to share the light of yoga with our students.

Over the past decade, we’ve had the honor of helping hundreds of yogis understand yoga not just as a sweaty work out, but as a way of life.

We’ve worked hard to distill and refine the teachings of a timeless practice into a 30 day yoga teacher training program, which we hope prepares you to share your own light with the world.

"I couldn’t have asked for a more life-changing experience"
It was probably the most transformative experience I could've asked for. It's been challenging, but the people, and the teachers instill such an incredible strength, gratitude, and integrity. I will never be the same.
- Madeline L.
Why choose Vinyasa Yoga School?

That is, of course, an individual choice or preference. We would suggest you do your own research, read the reviews of our students and make up your mind. It can be a daunting task to choose the right school – many people offer advice on how to choose a yoga TTC.

All we can say – in all humility – is that our reputation and our students speak for us.

Coming to India, studying in India, being amongst all these people from all over the world has literally been a dream. I'm so fortunate to have this experience. The teachers were amazing, the school is incredible! You deserve this. If you are even thinking about becoming a yoga teacher, come here!

Get a glimpse at the essence of Laxman Jhula, Rishikesh
Our yoga school is situated in the heart of a vibrant and historic yoga community: Laxman Jhula – cradled between the vast Himalayan mountain range and the magnificent Ganga river.
Some schools prefer to isolate themselves from road access and from the rich culture of India. At Vinyasa Yoga School, you’ll be footsteps away from dipping your toes in the Ganga, exploring the eclectic shops and cafes, and striking up conversations with the friendly locals.
"I've never felt more confident and comfortable with myself"
This course was way more than I ever thought I could imagine. I'm so happy that this is the school that I chose! I've never felt more confident and comfortable with myself. The teachers were amazing! I couldn't have had a better experience. Spiritually, emotionally - I'm a different person, and I can't wait to go home and teach everyone what I've learned.
- Suzannah B.

How do I know if this is right for me?

You're seeking to learn from the source

The Holy City of Rishikesh is widely known as the “yoga capital of the world”, and for good reason.

It’s been a home and inspiration to countless yogis and truth-seekers throughout the ages.

Many students come to our school looking for a sense of understanding and perspective that they can’t find elsewhere.

You're seeking a deeper connection with yoga

It doesn’t matter if you’ve been practicing for 10 days or 10 years – there’s something here for everyone.

The only prerequisite for our students is that they have an open mind and an appetite for learning and growth.

Our teachers are wonderful at balancing varying skill levels – we have had students who are relatively new to yoga taking the course alongside students with more than a decade of experience and several teacher training certifications.

You're seeking an immersive & authentic experience

There’s no sugar-coating our course – it’s intense.

You’ll be diving deep into all aspects of yoga 6 days a week, and you’ll experience what it’s like to push the reset button on your mind, body, and soul.

Our teachers grew up here in Rishikesh and have spent their lives devoted to yoga and sharing its light with others. We hope you’ll get to experience what yoga can do for your soul.

"I understand myself in a very profound way now"
The teachers are a wonderful mix of intelligence, dedication, compassion, and love. These are people that have dedicated their lives to yoga. Because of that, I have gained so much knowledge and understanding, love and compassion that will follow me and touch my own students for the rest of my life.
- Dana M.
