About Nirvana
Our Story, Our Dharma
Our Beginning
Born on the Banks of the Ganges
Nirvana Yoga School was founded by a lineage of Himalayan yoga teachers who wished to preserve the true essence of yoga as it has been taught for centuries — not as exercise, but as a complete path of self-realization. Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas near Laxman Jhula, our ashram has welcomed sincere students from over 50 countries.
We remain a small, teacher-led school by choice. Every student who walks through our gates is known by name, guided individually, and held within a living tradition rather than a franchise.
