Which location is right for you?

Uttarkashi is our main school and suits students who want to focus completely: it is higher, cooler and far quieter than the plains, with river-facing rooms, a Shiva temple on the premises where each day opens with pooja and yagya, and practice on the banks of the Bhagirathi. The 22-day 200 Hour and 300 Hour intensives (Indian and international) are held here, at Shiv Parivar Resort. Read our Uttarkashi travel guide for the journey and the seasons.

Dehradun is the easiest place to arrive: Shivoham Retreat is a boutique homestay among gardens and valley views, 500 m from Robber’s Cave, 9 km from the Forest Research Institute, 26 km from Mussoorie, 35 km from Jolly Grant airport and 45 km from Rishikesh. It hosts the 45-day remote professionals’ training, the 100-day weekend training, the daily yoga sessions and the Himalayan Wellness Retreat.
