Most PopularHome Stay Yoga Retreat
Stay two nights with a local family in the mountain village of Ghachowk (1,320m) and pair a steady yoga and meditation rhythm with genuine village life. Mornings begin with sunrise yoga and a short guided meditation, days are spent on village walks, forest trails and easy hikes, and evenings close with meditation, dinner with your hosts, and singing, dancing and storytelling. A simple, beginner-friendly retreat that puts cultural exchange ahead of structured ashram programming.
Intense Yogasana & Meditation Retreat
An intensive asana retreat for dedicated practitioners, built around tapas, the steady discipline of consistent effort. Sessions begin at an introductory level and intensify progressively through the week, combining structured classical asana sequences, pranayama and meditation within the framework of Patanjali's eight limbs. Personal adjustments and one-on-one guidance are given in a small group at the ashram in Ghachowk near Pokhara.
Most PopularNoble Silence Yoga & Meditation Retreat
An intensive silent retreat that uses noble silence as a container for deep meditation practice at our ashram in Ghachowk, Pokhara (1,320m). For six days guests set aside speech, eye contact, reading and digital devices, following a structured rhythm of sitting and walking meditation, gentle Hatha yoga, pranayama and restorative practice. Three techniques are developed through the week – Vipassana, Anapanasati and Metta Bhavana – and speech resumes on day seven.
Buddha's Teaching Meditation Retreat
A retreat that pairs study of the Buddha's core teachings with daily meditation. Guests explore the Four Noble Truths, the Noble Eightfold Path and the Three Marks of Existence while practising Vipassana, Anapanasati and Metta Bhavana. Periods of noble silence deepen through the week as the teachings settle into experience, at the ashram in Ghachowk near Pokhara.

A restorative retreat combining personalised Ayurvedic treatments with gentle Hatha yoga, sattvic meals, meditation and rest.

Open to committed beginners and experienced practitioners alike, with start dates every week year-round.
