About
A small studio in the hills that teaches the whole country
Utkrisht Yoga has been teaching from BCS, New Shimla, Shimla since 2019. First in person, and online ever since people started asking to join from further away than they could drive.
Most people arrive having decided, several times, to start doing yoga. They have downloaded an app, watched some videos, and stopped within a fortnight. Almost always the reason is the same: nobody was expecting them.
So the classes are live, at fixed times, taught by a person who can see the room. If your knee does not do what the posture wants, you get a version that works, in the session, rather than a comment reply three days later.
Classes six times a day exists for the same reason. A 6am class is excellent for people who get up at 5:30 and useless for everyone else. Between the morning and evening slots, most working days have one that survives contact with reality.
The free fortnight is not a trial with the good parts held back. It is the whole programme. If it does not fit your life, we would rather you found that out in fourteen days at no cost.
What members have said
I had never done yoga before and Utkrisht Yoga has helped me progress so quickly. I got everything I needed — a little bit of work-out to break some sweat, strong stretch and deep relaxation at the end. It truly is both body and mind yoga.
Great experience with the yoga trainers, who gave me a personalized plan based on my body issues. Not only has my posture started to improve but my overall health has gone up a notch.
I am retired from the nursing profession and I am enjoying my yoga journey. After joining yoga classes under the guidance of Umesh sir I am feeling physically, mentally and emotionally gratified. I think every age group should join yoga and enjoy the journey.
I never did yoga due to my hectic lifestyle, but now I started doing yoga with Utkrisht Yoga and I felt that it was something that I was missing in my life. It is enlightening for me that yoga is amazing and it is working well on my body.
I was doing yoga for many years but last year I took formal training from Utkrisht Yoga. After training I felt more relaxed. I just want to suggest everyone add yoga practice in life, because it will bring physical results and mental benefits.
A wonderful place to be if you want to exercise and do yoga and set at ease your mind, body and soul. Gives you immense emotional and mental relaxation while helping you stretch your muscles. Would totally recommend coming here.
I've been attending Utkrisht Yoga classes for over four months now, and I've noticed so many positive changes in myself. The sessions are simple, effective, and really help both my body and mind.
The sessions bring a wonderful sense of peace, wash away anxiety, and uplift your mood with renewed energy. The instructors guide you with great care and expertise.
Very professional, and very good guidance given by the teachers of Utkrisht Yoga. Also, when you are not able to attend, they give personal classes.
