Nepal is a country with a rich cultural heritage and a long-standing tradition of yoga practice. The country is home to some of the most spectacular mountain ranges in the world, including Mount Everest and Annapurna mountain range which we have the pleasure of having the view of.

This setting offers a serene and tranquil environment that is ideal for practising yoga. Additionally, Nepal is home to many experienced yoga instructors and certified teacher training programs, which makes it an ideal destination for those looking to immerse themselves in the practice and culture of yoga.

According to mythology Nepal was the place where Gorakhnath and Matsyendranath did their sadhana which is the foundation of the practice we follow to this day! They improved their discipline, grew understanding of Seva(unconditional love) in the very mountains we live in. The energy from their practice is lingering in the atmosphere supporting the practitioners to internalise.

What People Are Saying About Our Yoga Ashram

"When I think about Shivalaya my heart is full of joy and I have happy tears in my eyes and a big smile on my face. The money I spent for that course was the best money I ever spent. I would highly recommend Shivalaya to everyone who thinks about doing yoga teacher training!

It seems impossible to describe the change I experienced during my stay in Shivalaya. And how to choose one unique moment, when this whole time was just a succession of moments. During the training we are kept busy from dawn to dark : practice, learn, study, eat and sleep.

My stay at Shivalaya has been a significant chapter on my travels, whose depths I only came to understand years later. Being welcomed to this new home and given the opportunity to deepen my yoga practice as well as the space to explore inner realms, has been a milestone for my spiritual growth.
