This is India, where the air is filled with smells of incense, spices and the promise of adventure.

Join Fran Siebrits and Ryan Edmonds for an unforgettable experience as we journey to the birthplace of yoga, Rishikesh and its beautiful natural surroundings.

This experience is an immersion into the tranquil Ashram life, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We have specifically chosen an Ashram which is just outside of Rishikesh, nestled in nature.

Our days here revolve around an itinerary of daily meditations, breath-work, yogic cleansing techniques, asana (yogic movement classes), seva (karma yoga), scenic nature walks, rest time, discussions, puja (sunset blessing rituals) and chanting.

Some of the highlights include a purification and blessing ritual in the sacred Ganges River, as well as a traditional Havan Fire Ceremony.

During our retreat, we will be going on an exciting excursion into Rishikesh itself, the birthplace of yoga. Prepare to be awe-struck by temples, saris, cows, vegan cafes, shopping extravaganza, bookshops, yoga jewellery, and a rich diversity of people like you have never seen.

This unique 10 day retreat is with Ryan and Fran, within which we participate in a 6 day traditional Ashram Yoga programme.
