Rishikesh is a small city located in the state of Uttarakhand, in northern India, at the foothills of the Himalayas and on the banks of the sacred Ganges River. Known as “the gateway to the Himalayas” and “the world capital of yoga,” Rishikesh has been a center of spiritual pilgrimage for centuries. Here, sages and masters would retreat in search of enlightenment,and even today it retains its atmosphere of contemplation and wisdom. Its international fame grew in the 1960s when the Beatles visited Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s ashram to study Transcendental Meditation.
Beyond its modern popularity, Rishikesh remains a sacred place where the sound of mantras echoes through temples and forests, inviting those who arrive to a meeting with the eternal.

Throughout this journey, you will enjoy daily practices of Hatha Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Pranayama, mantra chanting, and moments of contemplation and deep
meditation.
You will also experience a sattvic diet—light, nourishing, and mindful—designed to harmonize body, mind, and spirit. In
addition, there will be free time to explore nature, wander the mystical trails of the area, and immerse yourself in its purifying
waters.

classes taught in English will have simultaneous translation into Spanish, ensuring that every participant can fully understand the content, regardless of their language level.
