Experience the depth of traditional Sivananda yoga in the tranquil Amboli hills. Our residential courses bridge ancient Vedanta wisdom with disciplined daily sadhana for your personal growth.
I begin my day with sadhana, connecting with the quiet energy of the sunrise over the Amboli hills. This moment of peace and prayer is the foundation of the spiritual practice I share with my students.

About Featured
Our courses are residential and immersive, requiring a commitment to the ashram lifestyle, which includes sattvic meals, daily karma yoga, and an enforced digital detox to ensure your focus remains entirely on your inner journey. If you are preparing to visit, be aware that this is a space for discipline and self-study, not a leisure retreat.
At Sivananda Yoga Vidya Peetham, we teach that yoga is a complete science of living. Our residential programmes are not vacations but structured opportunities for 'Sadhana' (disciplined practice). Whether you are exploring the foundational principles in a 7-day course or deepening your knowledge with our Vedanta philosophy sessions, the focus remains the same: self-knowledge.
Daily life at our ashram in Amboli follows the traditional rhythm. You will start your day with meditation and 'Satsang' (gathering for truth) at 5:30 AM. Expect a rigorous schedule of Hatha yoga, pranayama, and chanting, balanced by periods of silent reflection. We maintain a simple, sattvic diet free from stimulants to keep the mind clear. This environment is intentionally created to strip away modern distractions.
If you are new to this path, our foundation courses provide the necessary guidance to understand the 'what' and 'why' of yoga. For experienced practitioners, our advanced intensives, such as the 28-day Sadhana programme, offer a path to push your personal limits in a controlled environment. We believe that when you step away from the noise of city life, you gain the clarity required to answer the fundamental questions of existence. Our teachings are deeply rooted in the Sivananda lineage, ensuring that you receive wisdom that is both ancient and practical for handling the complexities of modern life.
