A Yoga School in Rishikesh,
Rooted in a Living Lineage
Anantadrishti is a Yoga Alliance certified yoga school in Rishikesh offering yoga teacher training and retreats in classical Hatha and Ashtanga yoga. Here, every day begins with fire and breath - an immersion into an unbroken living tradition.
Systematic
Immersion
Classical Yoga Methodology
Our classical yoga teacher training in Rishikesh is taught through immersive daily practice, not classroom lectures. The methodology is built on four pillars: Svadhyaya (self-study), Tapas (discipline), Ishvara Pranidhana (surrender), and Seva (service).
Each day begins before sunrise with pranayama and meditation, continues with asana and philosophy, and closes with satsang and reflection—creating a continuous cycle of learning that goes beyond theory into lived experience.

Why Choose Ananta Drishti Yoga School in Rishikesh
Discover what makes our yoga teacher training and retreats unique in the yoga capital of the world.
Small Exclusive Batches
With a maximum of 12-20 students per batch, every student receives individual attention and personalized guidance. Unlike larger schools with 40-60 students per class, our intimate setting ensures you truly master each technique, receive hands-on adjustments, and build a deep connection with your teachers and fellow practitioners.
Pranayama Mastery — Our Signature Strength
While most yoga schools dedicate 10-15 hours to pranayama, our 200 hour yoga teacher training includes over 40 hours of dedicated breathwork practice. From classical techniques like bhramari pranayama and anulom vilom to advanced kumbhaka retention practices, our students graduate with a depth of pranayama knowledge unmatched in Rishikesh.
Authentic Philosophy Teaching
Our yoga philosophy curriculum goes beyond surface-level overview. Students study Patanjali's Yoga Sutras with original Sanskrit chanting, explore Vedantic wisdom from the Upanishads, and engage with the Bhagavad Gita through the lens of daily practice. Philosophy isn't just theory here — it becomes a living, breathing part of your yoga journey.

Rishikesh is recognized worldwide as the yoga capital of the world, and our school is nestled in the serene neighborhood of Lower Tapovan — just steps from the sacred Ganges River and surrounded by the foothills of the Himalayas.

What Our Students Say
Real, verified reviews from our beloved global family — straight from Google.
“I took a 7 day pranayama course with Somashekar and I recommend it to anyone looking to dive deeper into pranayama & breathwork. The course consisted of 1.5 hour pranayama practice in the mornings and 2.5 hour lessons in the evening where he went through the breathwork in detail, explaining the physiology, anatomy, theory, and techniques behind all the practices. We dove into bhandas, mudras, mantras, and chakras for each breath practice, observing the changes in our bodies and learning about them to be able to instruct others. He’s extremely knowledgeable, whether you’re new to the practice or an advanced practitioner, you will gain a lot from this course. I’ve noticed such a difference in my energy, body, mental state, and personal practice after just 1 week! His course is also significantly more affordable than a lot of the other bigger / more publicly marketed schools I looked into (I toured several schools). Totally recommend!”
“I joined the evening meditation class and I was extremely happy with my experience. The meditation was well structured and the instructions were clear and easy to follow which made it easy for me to clear my mind and connect. Afterwards the instructor took the time to answer all of my questions and explained the meditation and it's benefits in detail which I really appreciated. He is very knowledgeable and I would have loved to take one of his philosophy classes had I had the time before leaving the area. I highly recommend this studio!!”
“I had an amazing solo session with Anantadrishtiyoga, I highly recommend it”
“Went to pranayama and philosophy class a few times- amazing teacher!”
“Had a few pranayama sessions and it was beyond amazing. Really amazing teacher and experience”
