Our Story: Authentic Yoga in the Heart of the Himalayas

Raj Yoga Rishikesh is more than a school; it's a dedicated lineage.

Rooted in Tradition, Focused on Mastery

Raj Yoga Rishikesh is a leading Yoga School in Rishikesh, India, dedicated to preserving the traditional teachings of Hatha Yoga, Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, and Meditation.
