You will feel yourself Divine and one’s mood changes completely by simply watching. This is the first time that we have included Dance in our Yoga curriculum and students are stimulated by the moves and we are sure that will be taken aback by it.

Because of the mind and body concept of Yoga, classical dance provides the harmony for this concept and further introduces another excitement concept. Subject matter is as follows:-

Ganga Beach Sadhna

Students are captivated by the sheer beauty, majestic scenery and amazing views of this heavenly Rishikesh. At the foothills, meanders the majestic Mother Ganga with all her aesthetic, harboring the sacred moments with the Gods within her merciful flow.

The lessons :-

Hatha Yoga

Listed below are the asana series that will be practiced:-

World Peace Yoga School cares about your health so that we serve the most delicious, healthy, vegetarian/vegan diet for you.

What Is Yogic Diet?

Yoga believes the body is made of five elements and food also contains five elements and has six tastes. When we consume food that contains each element that is called a balanced diet or yogic diet. The whole science of Ayurveda is based on these principles. Everyone has different tastes. This is not only because of their habits but it is because of what actually the body needs. When we consume food without proper knowledge of what our body needs, we create diseases. However, when we consume food that has all the necessary elements, we are healthy and satisfied.

Yogic food contains proper nutrients that the body needs to grow. Consuming too little or too much food is also very risky for our health, so a holistic diet is very important. Yogis always avoid tamasic food like meat, egg, etc. Avoiding tamasic food helps you become more flexible and compassionate. Listen to Guruji's lecture on Vegetarianism.

A vegetarian or a healthy diet consists of green vegetables, fresh fruits, lentils, beans, plant-based oils like coconut, mustard, peanuts etc. This kind of food is easy to digest and makes us feel lighter, at peaceful, and conscious.
