Ashtanga Yoga Shala Rishikesh

I followed a 200H intensive course in March 2025 in Ashtanga Yoga Shala Rishikesh and it was a great and enriching experience. Sachin, Liubov and others teachers involved teach us yoga and its values with tradition and passion. A really complete training where you learn deeply about Ashtanga and about yourself. Thank you for your guidance and all the shared time spent together in the shala.

Ashtanga Yoga Shala Rishikesh is a gem in Rishikesh. You can learn the traditional method from an experienced teacher (Sachin). Both mysore style classes as well as led classes are wonderful here. I have also studied an intensive course (300h) here, and I have nothing but good things to say about it. Through his experience and extensive studies in yoga, Sachin is able to foster anyones path in yoga, whatever your level is. The shala is beautiful, and energy there is serene and uplifting. If you are looking for a place to learn ashtanga yoga or continue your practice, look no further, this is your place. For me, this place has always been a pleasure to return and continue my journey in yoga. Hope I may return here again

I've attended an intensive 300hrs Ashtanga course in November and feel more than grateful for this experience. I've learnt so much, not only healthy alignments and adjustments in teaching Ashtanga but also basic knowledge about anatomy (Liubov made everything very easy to understand and has a great way of teaching!), pranayama techniques as well as philosophy and chanting mantras. Every teacher was very authentic and shared their knowledge in a very practical approach which made it always interesting to follow and motivated to study more. Also the daily mysore classes with Sachin in the beautiful shala were helping me in my progress of practicing the primary series as a beginner and gave me more confidence and body awareness. Thank you for this special time, I'm feeling very inspired and confident to continue my yoga journey

I joined 300 hour Ashtanga Yoga intensive course at this Shala as well as practiced regular Mysore. The Shala is quite spacious and clean. I really enjoyed my time practicing and learning Ashtanga Yoga with Sachin, Liubov and their team. When you pay visit to Rishikesh, and want to practice Mysore style with the SYC authorized teachers, this is the place you shouldn't miss. I love the Shala, the practice and the energy of our teachers.

The best place to practice traditional Ashtanga yoga Mysore in Rishikesh. A beautiful shala with super experienced teachers. I learn a lot in two weeks, cant wait to come back. Sachin its an amazing teacher will definitely improve your practice no matter your level! Thanks Sachin!!

Without knowing anything about this Shala, I have signed up for classes to continue my Ashtanga practice. For me this shala has been like a home from the first day, the energy and peace that is breathed in this place are unique. Sachin and his team have been very professional and friendly from the first moment. With their help I have managed to improve my practice a lot, and without a doubt I believe that this shala is the best place in Rishikesh to continue practicing Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in the traditional way (Mysore style). I am also sure that the classes they give for beginners and the intensive courses are excellent since you cannot find a better Ashtanga yoga teacher in the area. (Authorisation Level 1 Sharath Jois) I will definitely return soon and hope to attend more classes. Namaste

I had the chance to spend a full month in Rishikesh for a 300h advanced training at this Shala, and I can truly say it was an incredibly enriching experience. The lead teacher, Sachin, is deeply knowledgeable and transmits the essence of the Ashtanga practice with great integrity. As an authorized teacher, his guidance is rooted in the true values and philosophy of yoga, while fully honoring the uniqueness of each body and individual path. His understanding of Iyengar yoga adds even more depth and clarity to his teaching, making every class feel both precise and meaningful. The content of the course was of truly high quality, always thoughtfully adapted to meet each student's needs. Liubov, his wife and the Anatomy teacher, is as exceptional! Also an authorized Ashtanga teacher, she brings a unique perspective on the practice, bridging the traditional method with a deep understanding of anatomy and human health. Her scientific background and expertise in yoga therapy make her teaching rich, grounded, and incredibly insightful. The anatomy content was advanced, relevant, and truly one of the highlights of the training. I left with so much clarity and curiosity to keep exploring and learning with them both. The small group size (maximum 10 people) made a real difference, offering space for deeper connection and more interaction throughout the training. It's also worth noting that beginners are not accepted into the 300h course, which really helps to maintain a solid, focused level during such an intensive month. I absolutely loved my time with them and will definitely keep practicing and learning by their side. I am Deeply grateful, thank you AYS

The quality of teaching of Sachin is extraordinary! He has a gift to see what kind of work you need to do in yourself to improve. He gives all his heart into teaching and pushes you (in a good way) to give your best.
