World Peace Yoga Festival takes place in the Himalayan foothills beside the Ganges at Rishikesh. Everything is built around the practice — the timetable, the kitchen, the rooms and the people who teach in them.
Mornings open with kriya and pranayama, afternoons run workshops and philosophy, and evenings belong to kirtan and the fire. Around the festival we also run 200, 300 and 500-hour teacher training and shorter yoga and Ayurveda retreats for people who want longer.
We keep numbers small on purpose. Our teachers and our Ayurvedic doctor stay on site for the whole festival, so what you get is attention rather than a timetable handed to you at the gate.
Residential training beside the Ganges for those who want more than the festival week — from a first grounding in practice to the full teaching qualification.

Our teachers live on site, so you practise with the same faces every day.
Past twelve a teacher stops correcting people and starts managing a room.
A resident Ayurvedic doctor and therapy rooms, not a spa menu sold at reception.
Taught by people raised inside the tradition, not trained into it on a course.
Everything a residential stay needs, so nothing pulls your attention away from the practice.
Our yoga and Ayurveda retreats give you space to step away from daily noise and return to yourself. Set in the Himalayan foothills beside the Ganges, each one blends kriya and gentle Hatha practice, guided meditation and authentic Ayurvedic therapies.
Whether you have three days or two weeks, our teachers shape the schedule around your pace — so beginners and experienced practitioners feel equally at home.
Reach out any time — we are always happy to help you plan your stay.
