You are welcome to come to Annual World famous International Yoga Festival, at Parmarth Niketan Rishikesh, Haridwar, India which this year will also be a special maha kumbha mela celebration. The auspicious time of the Maha Kumbha Mela is the perfect time for us to renew and rejoice by deepening our personal yoga practice and meditation and to move closer and closer to divine awakening. The maha kumbh Mela occurs only once every 12 years in this sacred land of Haridwar/Rishikesh.

According to Indian spiritual history, drops of the divine nectar of immortality fell on this very spot and it is believed that if one takes a bath in the waters of Mother Ganga during this time, one can attain complete freedom and liberation. The opportunity to simultaneously take part in a gathering of top yogic experts from around the world and also to the greatest spiritual festival on Earth is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The international yoga festival is a gathering of revered saints, yogic experts, teachers, students and seekers from all over the world. The Festival offers the opportunity to study a wide range of types of yogasanas (including Kundalini, Iyengar, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Shinto and more), meditation, pranayama, reiki and even Indian dance!
