About this selection

Rishikesh is the world's yoga capital — where the Ganges meets the Himalayas, and where yoga lineages trace back centuries. Every serious practitioner comes here eventually. A 10-day retreat in Rishikesh moves beyond simple reset into genuine repatterning. By day 5 or 6, the body has released surface tension and begins working with deeper holding. Most practitioners describe the shift between day 7 and day 10 as the most significant part of the experience. May falls outside Rishikesh's peak yoga season, which runs February, March, April. That said, retreats run year-round and the off-season offers genuine advantages: lower prices, smaller groups, and a quieter environment that some practitioners actively prefer. The practice itself is unchanged.
