Morning Ashtanga on the rooftop, guided Hatha in the shala, and Yin yoga under the open sky — practice woven into every part of the day.

Daily seated practice, Nadi Shodhana at sunrise, and Yoga Nidra in the cool evening air of Tapovan.

Clean, comfortable rooms, a well-equipped yoga shala, and peaceful common spaces designed for rest, study, and community.

Comfortable Rooms

Quad sharing, twin sharing, and private rooms — all options include daily housekeeping, hot water, and WiFi.

Well-Equipped Shala

Spacious, clean yoga shala with natural light, quality mats, blocks, straps, and bolsters provided for all students.

Modern Amenities

Free WiFi, 24-hour hot water, laundry service, and a library of yoga texts — everything you need to focus on your practice.

Our location in Tapovan — steps from the holy Ganga river and surrounded by the lower Himalayas — is inseparable from the depth of practice you find here.

Three freshly prepared vegetarian meals daily, herbal chai morning and evening, and fresh fruits — food that supports clarity, energy, and inner calm.

What Is Sattvic Food?

Sattvic food — as described in the Bhagavad Gita and Ayurvedic texts — is pure, fresh, and plant-based. It promotes clarity of mind, lightness of body, and a calm, focused state ideal for deep yoga practice. All meals at Maa Ganga Yogashala are prepared fresh daily, completely vegetarian, and free from onion and garlic.

Beyond the mat — excursions to sacred sites, Ganga aarti evenings, certificate ceremonies, and the bonds formed between students from around the world.
