For us, he is like a special leader from our ancient stories, possessing the heart of a king and the mind of a compassionate sage. With his kind heart, he uplifts, leads, and shapes trust among individuals or groups, steering them towards shared goals. With his sharp mind, he helps them make wise choices and move forward with purpose. Today, Maneesh Pratap Singh Sir is a people person, but he wasn't always like that. He used to be an introverted and reserved individual. However, deep down, he always believed in himself. This belief created a special magic within him, allowing him to adapt and become whoever he needed to be in different situations. Maneesh Sir has always taught us that the same energy resides all amoreside in all of us & can create magic around us. This energy has manifested everything around us & holds the potential to manifest anything when entrusted with its Dharmic significance. Currently, Maneesh Sir is leading Yogkulam, and we are fortunate to have him as our leader, guiding us with his vision.
A successful place resonates with the voices of great minds. Yogkulam is fortunate to have such individuals. We express our gratitude to Raghvendra Pratap Singh Sir & Swami Sivananda Ji for being our guides.
Raghvendra Pratap Singh, like many others, faced tough times but persisted to find success and meaning. Influenced greatly by his mother, the atmosphere at home, filled with timeless tales of Mahabharat and Ramayana, shaped his foundational thinking. Even during challenging moments, Raghvendra Sir never gave up. He drew strength from the stories he heard and the lessons they imparted, inspiring him to persevere despite obstacles. Now successful in his job as real estate business consultant, he shares his wisdom to help others. Furthermore, Raghvendra Sir played a crucial role in Yogkulam, not only helping to establish it but also influencing Maneesh Sir with his thoughts and principles.
Swami Sivananda, a 125-year-old Yoga guru from Kashi, was honored with the Padma Shri for his great contributions to the field of Yoga. Born into poverty, dedicated his life to service and spirituality. He's a huge inspiration for Yogkulam, serving not just as a role model but also as a guiding light, much like a guru. He teaches us how to reach our service goals and shares valuable yoga lessons from his own life experiences. He believes that technology can make spreading the wisdom of yoga easier.

Yoga has been a consistent presence throughout Vikas sir's life journey.
Professionally, he holds a B.com degree, while excelling passionately as a cricket
player. His journey began in Kolkata, India. As with any game, upgrading
to higher levels demands a certain mental fortitude and a never-give-up attitude,
which led him to explore other sports like martial arts & meditation.
His cricketing career came to an unfortunate halt due to
multiple injuries he suffered.
But, as they say, when one path closes, another reveals itself. Vikas Sir soon
connected the dots of his new journey.
It was something that had always been within him – Yoga, his inner sanctuary.
Not only did he heal his injuries through meditation, but he also discovered his
passion for self-inquiry. His exploration of yoga & meditation opened the door to a
new career as a yoga teacher.
Today, Vikas Sir is helping other students, revealing the
magic of Yoga and Meditation,
and what they can do for someone. These practices not only heal but also help in
understanding the essence of yoga, which is experiencing oneness.
