In 2026, Sandy and Keith—advanced certified Jivamukti teachers and co-hosts of the yoga podcast Not Just Āsana—return to India and you are invited to join us,

On Nov 1st we arrive and gather as a group in Delhi, where the adventure begins.

After one night at the Radisson Blu, we venture North to the holy city of Haridwar to stay at the Johari House –  the ancestral home of our teacher, Seema Agarwal. Here, beside Mā Gaṅgā (the Ganges River), we will live for six nights, surrounded and inspired by the creativity, wisdom and legacy of Seema’s father – esteemed yogi Harish Johari.

Our days will unfold with mantra, meditation, āsana, prānāyāma, kriya, ritual and the best Ayurvedically balanced food you have ever tasted, made fresh on-site everyday. Workshops with Seema, local excursions and everyday magic will support us as we spend a week immersed in the study of yoga.

The next stop on our journey is Kanatal – a small mountaintop village surrounded by the Kodia forest. Here we will sleep two nights under the stars; wake to the natural beauty and picturesque view of the Himalayan valleys below and visit the Surkanda Devi Temple.

We continue on to “yoga Disneyland” aka Rishikesh and for two nights at the Divine Resort to explore the foothills of the Himalayas and mouth of Mā Gaṅgā. Often called the “yoga capital of the world”; historically and spiritually Rishikesh is the home of many sacred sites and ashrams, including one made famous by the Beatles in the 60’s. We will also be visiting Punkaj Music School, which is Keith’s favourite music school in all of India for a private classical concert.

At the end of our trip, we conclude and part ways after another night at the Radisson Blu in Delhi.

Our 12-night, intimate retreat is intentionally small and an unforgettable way to deepen your sādhanā (daily spiritual practice) in India. This immersion is an authentic opportunity for continued yoga education in the Motherland, curated for sincere seekers by sincere seekers, all in satsaṅga (good company).
