Prepare Yourself for the Coming Spring! Relax, Rejuvenate and Be Inspired in Incredible India! India is the perfect place to immerse yourself in the heart of yoga. Imagine waking at dawn to the sound of the ocean, the smell of incense and morning fires and practicing pranayama and asana as the sun rises. It is said that India is a revelation and a mystery, around every corner is a surprise and it is in this spontaneous environment that the deeper meaning of yoga emerges. This intensive retreat is designed to deepen your yoga practice through daily pranayama, creatively sequenced vinyasa style practices, tantric meditations, mudras, mantras and in depth exploration of the devotional practice of Bhakti as well as developing a deeper understanding of the philosophy behind these practices.
