We are happy to welcome you on our next Yoga Retreat (4 days, 3 nights) in Pokhara, Nepal!
Pokhara has a truly unique location: The Annapurna Himalayan Range is just next door! Stunning snow peaks can be observed from most parts of the city on clear days. Though being the second largest city of Nepal, Pokhara still has a really relaxing and peaceful atmosphere. You can also find giant waterfalls, green jungles and rivers in the surrounding hills. All of this makes Pokhara a truly great place to learn yoga and dive deep into the practice.
This yoga retreat with Madan Yoga is located in the green hills of Sedi, Pokhara. From the yoga retreat venue ("Green Hills Guest House"), we have a stunning view of the villages, surrounding hills, the rice terraces, and the Phewa Lake of Pokhara. The guest house has a newly built and spacious yoga shala with big windows that show the beautiful green surroundings. The yoga shala is truly inviting for an inspiring yoga practice. During this yoga retreat, you will have your own private room (Queen sized bed) with balcony and attached bathroom (hot shower). The yoga shala is only a few steps away from your room.
You will enjoy freshly prepared healthy meals (vegan or vegetarian) for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Vegetables are sourced from organic farms of the local village (Sedi). Please let us know if you have any special dietary requirements.
What makes this yoga retreat special?
This yoga retreat with Madan Yoga is for everyone - beginners, intermediate, and advanced practitioners. Beginners will get the chance to get a taste of yoga and build a good foundation for their yogic journey. More experienced yogis will deepen their practice and gain further inspiration for their ongoing yoga journey.
You will also learn several meditation and pranayama (breathwork) techniques, practice some healing mantras, and become familiar with the major yogic philosophies ("Satsang").
A jungle walk to learn about the local ayurvedic herbs as well as a morning walk to see the sunrise on the Annapurna Himalayas are another highlight of this retreat.
To relax and rewind, experience our unique tibetan sound bowl healing.
In the evenings, we will get together for Kirtan mantra chanting - a perfect way to end the day.
