Shailendra Singh Negi

Our senior yoga teacher, Shailendra Singh Negi, was born and raised in the holy city of Rishikesh, India, on the banks of the holy river Ganga at the foot of the Himalayas. Although Shailendra initially completed his education with a University degree in Accounting, it was not long before he began to follow his passion for a yogic life. Through his initial experiences with the Shivananda Ashram in Rishikesh, Shailendra became inspired to dedicate his life to walking the yogic path. His first diploma was earned at the Shukhdevanand Yoga and Nature Cure College at Rishikesh, followed by studies at the Gurukul University in Haridwar where he successfully attained a Post-Graduate Diploma in Human Consciousness and Yogic Science. In 2007 he founded the Vedic Yoga Centre as a unit of the Vedic Yoga Trust in Laxman Jhula, Rishikesh and began his true calling as a yoga teacher. His qualifications include classical yoga therapy, yoga philosophy, nutrition, naturopathy and Ayurveda therapy. Shailendra’s motivation is to inspire his students to take responsibility for their own spiritual journey and take conscious steps for their overall health and wellbeing. He does not practice or teach one specific style of yoga;nor does he set out to impress; his aim is to pass on the ways in which genuine seekers of peace and tranquility can achieve this much-sought after goal, through determination and dedicated practice. The content of his spontaneous philosophy classes cannot be read in books, as his teachings are integrated from his own personal experience as well as communing with sages whose knowledge has been passed down through generations from the traditional Vedic scriptures. The main focus of Shailendra’s teachings is the methodology of making us aware of our inner spiritual roots and how to reach them, through the practices of asana (movements and postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), samyak kriya (yoga practice to gain awareness of one’s inner life-force), meditation, Ayurvedic therapy, and mantra chanting. Shailendra teaches that while these different practices work in different ways, the purpose of each one is the same – to help us awaken our inner consciousness and attain stillness so that we can live mindfully, in the moment, and attune ourselves to our inner world. Shailendra’s teachings are also devotionally oriented, educating us in learning how to serve, love and surrender – three characteristics of a truly yogic lifestyle. Students come to Shailendra not just from all over India but from many other parts of the world, including China, Taiwan, Israel, Canada, USA, Australia, and also from various European and some African countries. Shailendra travels the world for many months of the year (when he is able) to share his traditional style of yoga, but he is based at the Vedic Yoga Centre for much of the time and holds daily yoga classes there. Come and be inspired by his experience.

Rajendra Negi

Rajendra Negi is the assistant teacher at the Vedic Yoga Centre and is the brother of Shailendra Singh Negi, senior teacher. Rajendra was also born and raised in the foothills of the Himalayas in Rishikesh on the banks of the sacred River Ganga. He started his yoga practice in the Divine Life Society in 2005. He was inspired by one of his teachers, Swami Samarpananda Saraswati from the Bihar School of Yoga, who had a major influence on his life (the Swami is a disciple of the famous Paramahansa Niranjanada Saraswati). Through Rajendra’s dedication to yoga and Ayurveda, he became a trustee of the Samarpanada Yoga Awareness Foundation in Tapovan. Rajendra has also been influenced by the teachings of Swami Rama from the Himalayan Institute, and Rajendra’s teachings are based on the Himalayan yogic tradition. Every year part of his time is spent travelling to sacred places in the Himalayas, visiting different yogis, swamis and spiritual seekers (when he is able). Rajendra achieved a Diploma in Yoga Therapy and Nutrition in Rishikesh during 2006-7 at the Gharwal University. In 2008 he completed a Diploma in Ayurveda Therapy and Swedish and Thai Massage in the Kerala Ayurveda Hospital and Pharmacy. He worked there in a voluntary capacity for 6 weeks after completing his Diploma. In 2013 Rajendra travelled to Thailand to receive sacred knowledge on Buddhist teachings and meditation at the Buddhist monastery at Si Bako, where he also studied Thai massage. Following this he travelled to Indonesia where he gave a 7-day seminar in Bali on Yoga and Ayurvedic practice. In 2014 after returning from Indonesia, Rajendra reinforced his yogic knowledge by completing a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Program with the senior teacher, Shailendra, in Rishikesh. Rajendra is a founding member of the Vedic Yoga Centre and has taught yoga and Ayurvedic therapy regularly at the Centre. He is a multi-talented teacher who’s is a karma yogi and has dedicated his life to yoga in his day-to-day life. He is also responsible for the running of the Vedic Yoga Centre in the absence of Shailendra. Rajendra has a great deal to offer students of both yoga and Ayurveda.
