    Description

    Welcome to our yoga school near Khajuraho, India. Our school was started by Yogi Dr. Virendra who has more than 25 years of experience. We teach Traditional Hatha Yoga, meditation, pranayama, and natural ways of healthy living. Our goal is to share the real Indian yoga tradition with people from different countries.

    We are an international yoga school with 3 branches.

    Our school owner is Yogi Dr. Virendra.

    We have yoga teachers at our different branches:

    Yogi Dr. Virendra – School Owner and Yoga Teacher
    Akula Bhaskara – IYO® Certified Yoga Teacher, Andhra Pradesh, India
    Yogacharya Ramesh Chandra Kashyap – IYO® Certified Yoga Teacher, Dhar, Madhya Pradesh, India
    Mr. Rishirvind Piparsania – IYO® Certified Yoga Teacher, Caorle, Italy

    Our teachers take yoga classes and help students. Volunteers do not replace our teachers. They only help with simple things like language exchange, social media, photography, gardening, and sharing their culture.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Yes, we can provide safe and comfortable accommodation for our volunteers. Volunteers stay in our family homestay. We provide a clean room with a bed, mattress, pillow, bed sheet, and blanket.

    We do our best to make everyone feel comfortable and safe. Solo travellers, including women travelling alone, are welcome. If possible, we also provide a private room. If not, a clean shared room will be provided.

    We want every volunteer to feel relaxed and at home during their stay.

    We provide 3 home-cooked vegetarian meals every day for our volunteers. We also provide tea, filtered drinking water, and seasonal fruits when available.

    Our family is vegetarian, so we do not cook or serve meat, fish, or eggs in our home. Alcohol, smoking, and drugs are not allowed.

    We usually eat together as a family. It is a nice time to talk, share stories, and learn about each other's culture.

    In exchange, we ask for up to 25 hours of help per week, with 2 full days off. We want our volunteers to enjoy their stay, explore the local area, and have a good cultural exchange with our family.

    What else ...

    Life here is simple and peaceful. We start our day with yoga and meditation, eat healthy vegetarian food, and enjoy living close to nature.

    In your free time, you can visit the famous Khajuraho temples, Raneh Falls, Panna National Park, local villages, markets, and festivals. There are many beautiful places to see and many things to learn about Indian culture.

    Khajuraho has a railway station and a domestic airport, so it is easy to reach from many cities in India. We will also help you with travel information before you arrive if you need it.
