About Arya

Yogi Arya trained under his guruji, co-founder of what became Patanjali Ayurveda, from age 12. He later studied throughout India at Bihar School of Yoga, the BKS Iyengar Institute at Pune, and under masters of various lineages, such as the Swami Satyananda Saraswati lineage of Swara Yoga. Arya has two master’s degrees in Yogic Sciences and has been teaching students from all around the world for over 12 years based in India, China, and Hong Kong. Arya has an extensive understanding of the ancient yogic teaching as well as the interplay of human physiology and psychology, which he weaves into his classes. His approach is precise and scientific while also creating a fun, compassionate, and joyful community environment.

The rhythm of the body, the melody of the mind, and the harmony of the soul create the symphony of life.

Our Philosophy

Namaste! Our vision at Arya Yog Peeth is to share the great teachings of the ancient yogis and rishis of India, providing theoretical and practical yogic teachings to illuminate all aspects of our students lives. We believe that the healing, truth, and path of self-mastery creates ripples of positive change in the world. Yoga is both the path between the human and the divine potential as well as the destination of unity itself.

Our courses offer a balanced mixture of traditional Indian yoga practices and the modern scientific research. We provide both anatomical and physiological classes as well as yogic philosophy knowledge to our students, ensuring that they have a solid foundation and understanding. By offering this comprehensive education, we aim to make yoga philosophy and asanas & physiology easily accessible for both advanced practitioners and beginners, igniting their passion for this beautiful yogic tradition.

In addition to theoretical knowledge, we also focus on practical training. We train our students to become professional yoga instructors, equipped with the skills to guide their students and friends effectively in achieving their physical and mental goals.

At our school, we do not treat people as mere clients. Instead, we follow the Indian traditional style of teaching and have a familial community environment. We believe in the revival of the physical and spiritual aspects of yoga, going beyond its portrayal as simply a form of perfect exercise. Our aim is to provide a traditional environment for learning and practicing yoga, immersing our students in the rich cultural and spiritual heritage of Rishikesh.

We would love to get to know you and share in the sacred practice of Yoga together. Please contact us for more information or to sign up for Teacher Trainings, Retreats, Courses, or Classes.
