The place that taught me yoga from A to Z. There is no other professional place like this in Tapoban with charming, experienced and patient teachers. It is located in a small side street, far from the hustle and bustle of the tourists, and within one lesson you will probably already fall in love

L’esperienza con Darshan è stata un grande arricchimento per l’anima, il corpo e la mente. Grazie alla disciplina dello yoga e agli insegnamenti che Darshan mi ha trasmesso, in un mese ho acquisito più consapevolezza di 10 anni di yoga praticati con l’approccio occidentale. La serietà e al contempo la leggerezza, l’umiltà, la spiritualità e l’attenzione del maestro a ognuno durante la pratica sono qualità che raramente si incontrano in una persona. Lo raccomando vivamente!

I stayed at Prakurti yoga school for 6 days. I participated in part of the teachers training course. I had a lovely experience there. There was a strong feeling of community, and the Hatha yoga classes helped deepen my practice, alignment, and understanding of breathe.

I did a 4-5 day Yoga and Meditation Retreat with Darshan as my teacher. We learned a lot from eachother and I am really happy I chose for his personal approach. Darshan is a Yoga teacher with an approach I have never seen before and which I really believe in as a Physiotherapist. His yogashala is a small community where people can be a part of even if you are not following his yoga classes. You can have a good talk or if you'd like to be on your own you can draw yourself back to different spots. The accommodation was also nice with good vibes. The rooms are spacious and clean with a nice hot shower and the food is also really healthy and tasty.

I feel so grateful to have found Darshan. I went to his Hatha classes for about 6 weeks and I learned SO much. I love the attention to detail that he gave to in every asana in order to attain a favorable engagement of our body. The knowledge about my own body grew so much in his classes, and for that I am very grateful. He nurtured my passion for Hatha and the disciple for the practice, as I could see and feel the positive impacts it had been creating in my body and mind. Thank you so much!

I went to Hata and Iyengar classes at prakruti yogashala, mostly with Darshan Ji. I like this teacher who gave us structured and traditional yoga classes with great focus on alignement and breathing. I also recommend you check out their TTC trainings!

I’ve fallen in love with yoga because of this school! I’ve tried tens of yoga teachers, in India and UK, and Darshan is exactly what I was looking for. My body feels great, gaining functional strength and opening up day by day. As a bonus, the community vibe is so friendly at the school - the crew dip in the Ganges together most days ❤️

If you want to experience Yoga in Rishikesh, you have to go to Prakruti Yogshala. Amazing Ganga views, Yoga from its roots and beautiful community. I’m so grateful to practice with you. Thank you Darshan ji!

I would give 100 stars if I could!!!
So I’ve been doing yoga in the West for years… but I feel like I’m now learning REAL yoga for the first time! Darshanji is the dream teacher - so passionate and knowledgeable, and such a great and humorous heart.
His yoga classes are part of the reason we extended our stay in Rishikesh!! Our body is feeling amazing and we absolutely love the little community that exists around his classes and ashram Thank you so much Darshanji!!! ❤️

Darshan is an amazing, professional yoga teacher. He puts the focus on the spiritual aspect of the practice, without neglecting the physical part, encourage his students to preciseness and quality in asanas. His presence is inspiring. I'm more than happy to recommend his yoga classes.

A yoga school and an accommodation in a unique spot of ever busy Tapovan. Peaceful surroundings and southern exposure, comfy rooms with warm light. Very affordable. Moreover a laundry and good restaurants nearby. Would definitely recommend to a friend.

I recently completed my first TTC in Prakruti Yogaschool and it was truly transformative. The curriculum is very complete and the teachers were very good and also approachable, creating a safe space for learning and sharing. Accommodation was simple and clean, and the vegetarian meals were nourishing and delicious, big thanks!!!!

In this Yogashala, I met Darshan and his classes, and I couldn't leave anymore. I spent a month taking Hatha classes, and I had never before learned to understand and care for my body the way Darshan taught me. I enjoyed it so much that later I did a TTC at his school, and it was wonderful! Complete expansion and connection! Thank you very much 🙏🏼 ♥️✨
