Embark on this transformative Rishikesh Yoga Retreat, a revitalising journey back to the birthplace of yoga. By popular demand, this acclaimed spiritual retreat in India is returning, offering a profound opportunity to deepen your practice. In 2026, we’ve elevated the experience: your retreat coincides with the world-renowned International Yoga Festival in Rishikesh. Immerse yourself in authentic Yoga and Ayurveda wisdom, witness the sacred Ganga Aarti by the holy river, and learn from legendary masters. This is more than a holiday; it’s a carefully curated experience for those seeking healing, connection, and true self-discovery in the Himalayas.

The Yoga & Ayurveda retreat is led by Sumit Manav. Sumit’s journey began at the early age of 14 in a North Indian town in Uttar Pradesh (India). He then proceeded to the Himalayas, where he discovered Yoga as the path to human consciousness and overall well-being, under the spiritual guidance of Guru Shreeram Sharma Acharya. During his training, Sumit interacted with the mystics and it was this experience that brought him closer to understanding the physiology and psychology of the human body.

In 2005, he earned his Post Graduate Diploma in Yoga Science and Human Consciousness from Haridwar in India, following which he started practicing as a professional Yoga Instructor. Today, with over 20 years of experience, Sumit continues to spread his wisdom of Yoga across the world by practicing and facilitating progressive yoga through dynamic asanas, pranayamas (breathing), meditation, spiritual and yogic counseling, reflex actions, yoga therapy and corporate wellness.
