Services
Our yoga school is a leading education center for Yoga and Ayurveda. We offer training's and retreats, as well as daily classes, to practice the original knowledge of yoga and meditation, as preserved in the Vedas. Indian Yoga Alliance is a unit of Rishikesh Yoga Foundation, a not-for-profit organization founded in the birthplace of yoga (Rishikesh, India).
Sajan was raised in Himalaya, the North East of India in the village of Puldiyana, Uttarakhand. At the age of 14, he completed his 500,000 Om Namah Shivay japa meditation. He has completed degrees in Economics, Panchkarma, and Ayurveda Therapy, and began work in the field of Ayurveda and Panchkarma Therapy in 2010.
Wow, what a healing, peaceful and welcoming place! I found the Indian Yoga Alliance one evening while searching for assistance with an injury/pain and am grateful I was able to get in right away the next day. Sajan was very in tune with what both my body and mind needed from this massage. I left feeling so much better than when I had walked in, the pain is gone and I am much more mentally calm.
The Bhagavad Gita teaches this about the essence of Yoga: On this path, no effort is wasted. Even a little of this practice will shelter you from great sorrow. For meaningful transformation, class packages and memberships are designed for you, to receive the full benefits of your sadhanas. Ayurveda + Yoga practices are an ancient system which will reset your wellbeing in incremental, nonlinear shifts.
Reiki is a Japanese tradition of relaxation therapy which allows the body to return to the naturally restorative mode of self-healing. Reiki facilitates a soothing, low-frequency electromagnetic wave form which stimulates the mental, emotional, and physical healing state known as "parasympathetic nervous system activation".

I received the 60 min full body massage and 30min Shirodhara treatment. Sanjay was a master, he was extremely professional and respectful. He intuitively knew what parts of my body needed attention. The treatment was so relaxing as well as bringing comfort to areas I have long had pain and discomfort in. I cannot wait for my next treatment and highly recommend this treatment to anyone with areas of pain and discomfort, dealing with stress and tension or just in need of a peaceful escape.

I was welcomed warmly and professionally. Mel's initial screening was brief but comprehensive. During the massage, Mel noticed that the mobility in my left shoulder was limited. We spoke about it briefly and then she manipulated the shoulder in such a way that full mobility was restored. Thank you, Mel. I have no reservations in recommending this facility.

Best massage experience I have ever had! I was professionally screened before entering the beautiful and peaceful massage room, and the hands that massaged me brought healing and restoration to my weary body. I walked out feeling four inches taller, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I'll be back for more.

This place is a treasure and I'm grateful it is in my region! I began with an Ayurvedic consultation with Laura and Sanjay and it was very thorough and unhurried. I feel their hearts are in this completely, and I was given valuable and sound suggestions for improved health based on the consultation.
Several weeks later, I also went for a 90-minute Shirodhara oil massage with Sanjay and it was amazing. I'd read for years about the gentle stimulation of the third eye via a stream of oil and experiencing it was kind of indescribable. It both stimulated and relaxed me. Sanjay explained that, though

I am a long time Ayurvedic enthusiast, have studied Ayurveda quite bit myself (including at The International School of Ayurveda in Pune, India) so it is with total confidence when I say, Indian Yoga Alliance is an absolute gem! They are the real deal, highly skilked, thorough, professional, so kind and the treatments are profound and have been highly effective. I cannot recommend then enough. And look forward to returning as often as possible!

The total Ayurvedic treatment is a must! Mel B. Is the best LMT I have ever visited. Everyone involved in your well being has confidence in their knowledge and skills and aims to take care of you…. Humble team at the Indian Yoga alliance so I’ll do the bragging for them.

My consultation with Laura and Sajan at the Indian Yoga Alliance was a great experience. With surveys and a thoughtful discussion, they provided a roadmap to begin an integrated Ayurvedic practice. Grateful to have met both of them!

Indian Yoga Alliance comes highly recommended, whether you're in person or practicing virtually! They take the time to understand not only your personal goals but also teach basics to build a truly foundational approach to traditional yoga. Whether you're in New York or California, they are flexible and work with you! They are apart of this work because they truly believe in the transformational power that this practice brings!

Phenomenal yoga, breathwork (pranayama), and meditation offerings! Laura and Sanjay are wonderful people and offer a depth of knowledge, both spiritual and wellness-related, that is not typical of ordinary yoga studios. They teach students to value yoga as a lifestyle and personal practice beyond the immediate physical benefits. Sanjay and Laura have taught me how to build space for small yogic practices (movement, breathing, meditation) and to see their effects on my overall health, including quality of sleep, cognitive function, digestion, ability to handle stress, and how I show up in relationships

Hi had a wonderful experience with the Indian Yoga Alliance. I booked a consultation and spoke with Laura and Sajan. They are lovely people who are kind and full of wisdom. They are fantastic listeners and work with you on a 1:1 personal level, actively listening to your health goals and sharing valuable feedback. I am so happy I found them! Fantastic experience.

June 3, 2019 From Erin S.:

Such a welcoming atmosphere and an authentic yogic experience. They focus on the whole self, not just the "workout" philosophy that's taken over yoga in the Western world. Try the treatments as well as the classes. It's a truly transformative place where the instructors have a personal interest in the path of their students.
