We invite you to join our pilgrimage to the sacred land of  Rishikesh, India, considered to be the birthplace of yoga. If you choose, continue with us to the warm tropical island of Koh Mak, Thailand, to rejuvenate your spirit  through yoga, meditations, dreams and the beauty of the sea. Deepen your spiritual practice and commune with fellow souls who choose to connect with peace and joy.Rishikesh, India, abounds in legends of yogis, rishis (seers), child saints, and sannyasis (renunciants) who have come to practice yoga in these hills, known locally as “the abode of the gods.” Sitting at the base of the Himalayas, this ancient village is jungle-clad hills—a carpet of soft, shady acacia trees and banana palms dotted with shrines and ashrams up to the highest hilltops. The grand centerpiece of Rishikesh is the great Ganges herself, the river and goddess who once flowed solely for the pleasure of the gods.
