Vaikuntham is a registered yoga school in Rishikesh, India — the birthplace of the practice. Set in the Himalayan foothills beside the Ganges, we teach classical yoga — asana, kriya, pranayama and meditation — alongside traditional Ayurvedic care.
We teach 200, 300 and 500-hour yoga teacher training courses alongside shorter meditation and Ayurveda retreats. What we teach is the classical path — purification, posture, breath, mantra and the steady work of turning attention inward.
Groups stay small and our teachers live on campus, so instruction is personal rather than delivered to a room. An Ayurvedic doctor and therapy rooms on site support the practice as the tradition intends.
Choose the path that matches where your practice is now — from a first grounding in kriya to the full teaching qualification.
