Find your center. Develop a greater sense of self. Turn awareness into confidence. Explore the history and evolution of yoga in the place where it all began.
Begin with an overview of Hinduism. Then take a deeper look into Hinduism’s influence on the evolution of India’s people and culture. Spend ten days in Rishikesh, yoga’s birthplace, learning about its origins while practicing its varying forms — ranging from Hatha yoga to Jnana, Raja, and Bhakti yoga. Learn and practice meditation with Tibetan monks in a Buddhist temple. Understand the evolution of yoga in India. Practice daily postures. Survey the different paths of yoga and ultimately, light your own path forward.
