YOGA RETREAT IN THE HIMALAYA
WELCOME TO YOGA RETREAT IN THE HIMALAYA
Welcome to our yoga retreat in the Himalayas. It’s an affordable course for that entire enthusiast who is looking to escape from daily monotonous life in the city for a few days of yoga, spiritualism and refreshing both mind body and soul. Our yoga retreat is filled with breathing techniques, yoga asanas (all these simple postures can be done on daily basis) and few trips to hills surrounded by nature.
Our school lies in the heart of the Tapovan village filled with cafes, waterfall, walk around the hills, the paddy field where the villagers are growing organic food, and people from all different parts of the world interacting with each other. It’s a perfect place to let go and finally breathe and clear your mind for a while. There are numerous places to hang out with similar mindsets of people in a cafe, musical events, yoga classes, cafes, mountain sports etc. Once in Tapovan one is never bored of doing something.
our retreat course varies from simple 3 days to a hardcore level of 10 days.

DAILY SCHEDULE
THE MORNING SESSION
This will lead students from morning wake-up routines to the morning exercises required to re-energize the body and mind for the day
Satkarma – This cleansing of nostrils (after all the oxygen and carbon dioxide passage should always be free of obstacles. These get blocked from the previous day.
Breathing exercise – In today fast pace working and the living environment we ignore the importance of breathing. We just do not comprehend much about it. It’s the typical form of creation of stress. Breathing excessively is important to allow a continuous movement of oxygen to our lungs. Our exercise also helps bring back the strength to our lungs, and the stomach help regenerate those habits we forgot growing up.
The Ashtanga asanas – The Ashtanga asanas class wakes us up completely and keeps us energised the whole day.
AFTER BREAKFAST SESSION
Classes after breakfast classes are mostly about learning about our body and the yoga philosophy. The classes are very much relaxed and the morning session has given me enough power to be focused.
LATE AFTERNOON SESSION
Vinyasa Flow -multi-series – The evening session is filled with multi-series asanas. The classes are intensive and students are taught to push both mind and body to a level unexpected by the students. This allows students to strengthen their minds and prepares them to be strong mentally and find the true potential hidden deep inside of them.
Meditation – The idea is after a hard asana session in the yoga hall it is also important to relax both the mind and body. The exercise will lead the mind to relax and the body to re-compose. The Sound healing class also brings relaxation.
