Rule And Regulation- Tattvaa Yogashala Rishikesh, India

Welcome to Tattvaa Yogashala! We are excited to share this time of dedicating yourself to your practice. We believe in creating an environment where you can focus on your yoga practice with complete dedication and peace of mind. To ensure that everyone gains the most from this experience, we ask you to cooperate so that the entire class gets the best out of it.

Please read through these guidelines to follow during your stay here.

1. Attendance

   100% attendance is necessary to receive your certification. Students are not permitted to miss classes except for severe illnesses. Even if you feel unwell, come to class and sit in the back of the room to get all the essential information for the final exam.

2. Punctuality

   Classes start on time, and all students must be in the shala on their mats by that time. Arriving a few minutes earlier and sitting in silence is recommended so you may be fully present for the teacher.

3. Class disruption

   Please respect your teachers and classmates and do not hold side conversations or disrupt class while the teacher instructs.

4. Prohibited Items

   Smoking, alcohol, drugs, meat, fish, and eggs are not allowed. To fully experience the benefits of the vegetarian diet, please don't bring or consume animal products from outside while staying here. Mobile phones are only permitted in areas outside of class. Photography, video making, and audio recording during classes and ceremonies are only possible with the director's permission.

5. Cleanliness

   During the course, you will participate in dynamic classes and work closely with other bodies to practice teaching and adjustments. Please consider the teachers and classmates and shower before asana, adjustments, and workshops. Please do not use strong perfume or deodorant.

6. Evening Silence

   Please observe Mauna (silence) in your residence after evening meditation.

7. Illness

   Since it would be the first time in India for many students, they may experience a period of adjustment to the local food. Hence we recommend to prefer the food prepared in our kitchen, which will be fresh, hygienic, and delicious! In the case of illness, please let a staff member know beforehand so we can ensure your care. You can also avail the facility of medical treatment, but that would not be included in the course fees.

8. Brunch/Dinner

   Brunch/Dinner is provided for students at 10:30 AM and 06:30 PM. Please arrive on time for meals. If you can't attend, please let us know before 08:00 PM so we can avoid wastage.

9. Personal Belongings

   We do not accept responsibility for students' belongings. Keep your belongings safe and lock your room whenever you are outside.

10. Rooms

    Please turn off lights, fans, and hot water machines, when you are not in your room.

11. Roommates

    To maintain a focused environment, nobody would be permitted to stay in another's room, neither your coursemates nor any outsider.

12. Students-Teacher Relationships

    Please respect the student-teacher relationship - flirting is not permitted with any Tattvaa Yogashala teachers or staff.

13. Extracurricular Activities

    Attending other courses/classes/healing sessions is strictly prohibited while in the course. Please also refrain from offering your fellow students services, for example, massage or healing sessions, so that you may focus on the course.
