Goa is just... different. It's not like anywhere else in India. While Rishikesh is the "World Capital" (and we love it!), Goa is the world's yoga playground. It's where deep practice meets deep relaxation.
The Vibe is Everything: Goa is super chill and relaxed. Everyone is friendly. It’s the perfect place to just... breathe. You're not in a hurry. The warm air and sound of the sea slow everything down, making it perfect for meditation and self-reflection.
Nature is Your Yoga Shala: The beaches are beautiful! Doing your morning practice while hearing the waves is pure magic. Our school is just a short walk from Arambol beach, so you can connect with nature every single day.
A Global Community: You’ll meet amazing people from all over the world. Goa attracts yogis, artists, and travelers who are all there to learn, share, and grow. It’s easy to make new friends for life.

Good question! The weather in Goa changes a lot, so picking the right season is important.
This is the "high season" and for good reason! The weather is perfect. It's sunny, warm (20-30°C), and not too humid. All the best cafes, markets, and yoga shalas (including ours) are open. This is the ideal time for a comfortable and happy trip.
This is the summer season. It gets very hot and humid (35°C+). If you love heat and want to find fewer crowds, this can be an option. We run our courses in AC-cooled halls to keep you comfortable.
This is the monsoon. It rains a lot, but the whole state turns incredibly green and beautiful. Many places close down, but our school remains a peaceful oasis. It's a very quiet, special time for deep reflection.

Yes! Goa is very safe, especially for solo travelers. And a retreat is the *best* way to travel alone, because you're in a safe, friendly group. We take care of everything.
Nope! Not at all. For our retreats, we have classes for all levels, including total beginners. Just come as you are.
A retreat is a yoga vacation to relax and refresh (like our 3, 5, or 7-day programs). A YTT (Yoga Teacher Training) is an intensive course to become a certified teacher (like our 100 or 200-hour programs).
It's easy. You can fly into Goa's Mopa (GOX) or Dabolim (GOI) airports. From there, it's an easy taxi ride. We can help you arrange transport.
