Hatha Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India
Join a traditional Hatha Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India focused on alignment, breath, meditation, and holistic teaching skills.
Hatha Yoga is one of the most basic types of yoga. We teach it the way it was meant to be taught at Pankaj Yogpeeth in Rishikesh, which is where yoga began. By practising hard and following through, you can really find peace between your mind, body, and spirit. Yoga poses (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama), and meditation are all part of Hatha Yoga. This style of yoga is good for your body, mind, and spirit. Even though it's easy, it does a lot of good.
At our Hatha YTTC in Rishikesh, you'll get in-depth training that will change your life. You'll not only learn how to teach yoga, but you'll also gain the skills and confidence you need to be a great teacher. With the holy Ganges River and the foothills of the Himalayas all around it, Rishikesh is the right place for this spiritual journey. You don't just learn Hatha Yoga here; you live it, breathe it, and become it.
Our Locations
The holy Ganges flows through Rishikesh, where the Himalayas begin. As soon as you get there, you'll understand why it's called the "Yoga Capital of the World." It's hard to describe the energy here until you feel it for yourself.It's been taught this way for hundreds of years, but at Pankaj Yogpeeth, we teach it in ways that make sense for today. You get real, traditional roots mixed with effective current ways of teaching.

At our Hatha YTTC in Rishikesh, we just don't learn forms in a room. You're doing yoga in the place where it all began, near mountains, ashrams, and the holy river. With the Ganges in the background and monks meditating in nearby caves, you feel like you're a part of something much bigger than an exercise class. This is where yoga stops being cool and starts being real.
