India Yoga Adventure
experience sacred india
We invite you to come with us in to the original home of Yoga: India!
October 1-22, 2026
We offer:
- Daily morning Swara Yoga practice
- Lectures on Swara Yoga, Ayurveda, Yogic Health Maintenance and more.
- Ayurvedic Treatments (not included in price)
- Special activities like visiting temples, hiking in the Himalaya and fire pujas by the river
Join us on this unique adventure to deepen your Yoga practice and learn about Ayurveda. Together we will dive into the spiritual wonders of India, based in own private guest house including a rooftop shala.
6 days a week we start with a Swara Yoga practice, (then eat breakfast) and after explore the weekly topic in our lecture.
In the afternoon we will do Yin Yoga or take you on spiritual adventures or give you space to explore by yourself or with your friends! We always leave room for you to get your Ayurvedic treatments, for this is one of the most powerful aspects of the retreat.
We will take you to an Ayurvedic clinic and you can get an assessment and also receive healing panchakarma treatments (cost not included in course). This is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Price includes private accommodation, yoga classes, fire pujas and adventures around Rishikesh and the surrounding area. Other events are optional and are extra cost like panchakarma, astrology and transportation. There is a lot of walking on this retreat and not many options to take taxis or other forms of transportation, so you need to be able to walk at least 3 km in a day, as well as be fit enough to walk up the hill to our yoga and residence space.
Please note that the included rooms in the Guru Ganga Guest House are very basic. If you require an upgraded room, you can book one before you arrive or find one once you get to Rishikesh. It’s all part of the India experience!! After the course, you can book a trek up into the Himalaya if you wish!

Daily Swara Yoga and Lecture
Randall will be your guide for the morning practices, taking place in the private guest house we will stay in. We will do Swara Yoga which includes breath, movement, meditation, mantra and more. After class we eat breakfast and then we will have a lecture to enhance your knowledge and experience. It’s a perfect start to the day!
Explore India
India is a limitless fount of wisdom, people and new experiences. The only way to get into it is to get into it. We will guide you safely and gently through your India experience so that you can get the best and avoid the worst that is India. Randall will guide you to some hidden places, ashrams and nature spots. Please note that is NOT a guided tour. Sometimes we will explore together, and sometimes you will explore on your own or with friends. This is for confident, intelligent, independent travellers.
Ayurvedic Panchakarma
Ayurveda is one of the most effective healing and balancing systems in the world. There is an excellent Ayurvedic Clinic in Rishikesh run by Dr. Mayura. If you wish, you can an ayurvedic assessment, which might include a panchakarma. It’s an incredible opportunity to upgrade your health!
Experience the Magic
Beautiful Rishikesh is situated on the banks of Holy Ganga river and surrounded by the Rajaji National Tiger Reserve. (Don’t be scared, no tigers around town). The Himalayan hills are supremely beautiful, as is the Ashram area of Rishikesh and the many beaches along the Ganga. It’s clean and pleasant and October is an ideal time to come.
Meet Yogis and Teachers
Having spent so much time here, I know many wonderful teachers and yogis we can meet and learn from. Some days we will go out and explore yoga (and other) classes or meet special souls for lessons or teachings. There is so much to learn here, from yoga to mantra, Philosophy to astrology and so much more.
Visit Temples and Pujas
Every morning and evening there are ceremonies in the temples along the Ganga River. We will visit different temples and experience the way they worship the higher consciousness through mantra, song, fire and offerings.
