IN GOA, INDIA!
FEBRUARY 17 - MARCH 3, 2025
15-DAY YOGA RETREAT
Goa, India
~ SPECIAL PRICE: $2495! ~
This 15-Day Yoga Immersion in Goa, India is for both those who join the 200-HR Teacher Training program and practitioners who simply wish to explore a deeper connection with their practice and spirit. Discover tranquility at Nalanda Retreat, a serene beachside haven in Mandrem, North Goa. Tucked away from the main road, the village remains a peaceful gem, with turtle-protected beaches and a laid-back charm.
Sianna Sherman and Mischa Varmuza will create the container over the course of the Immersion to allow you to deepen your practice and be held in the sacredness of Mother India. Through daily classes of mantra, meditation, asana, and pranayama, Sianna & Mischa offer a truly magical experience.
The beauty of your days... Relax by the pools, stroll along the sandy shores, or enjoy stunning sunsets over the Arabian Sea. Nalanda offers a restorative environment to unwind and rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul.
Mandrem’s small, vibrant village features colorful boutiques, cafes, restaurants, and wellness centers. The nearby market town offers supermarkets, ATMs, and phone shops just 15 minutes from the beach. *For those attending this Immersion as a retreat experience only (omitting the 200-HR Certificate training), your afternoons will be free to wander.
Days will be rich with sunrise sadhana, mantra, pranayama & meditation classes for all retreaters. Those joining for the retreat experience (omitting the 200-HR cerification) will have free-time in the afternoons to visit the ocean, shop in town, and indulge in India's magic. 200-HR students will have a daily afternoon session.
Meals are served at Chia Lounge, a beautiful beachfront restaurant with panoramic sea views. Chia Lounge promotes a healthy, mindful lifestyle with organic, locally-sourced meals, catering to vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free diets, with flexibility for other dietary needs.
Nalanda's rooms are tastefully designed with a blend of traditional Indian culture and modern comforts, offering sea or pool views for a peaceful and stylish stay.
REGISTERAn experience of a lifetime!
This experience is a unique opportunity to deepen your yoga practice, restore your soul, and connect with the heart of yoga in one of the most sacred places on Earth. I'll be guiding you along with Rasa Yoga expert teacher Mischa Varmuza at the serene Nalanda Yoga & Wellness Center in Mandrem, North Goa—a tranquil beachside haven.
You will explore sacred sadhana, chant amidst the magic of Mother India, and commune with incredible souls. You’ll experience daily practices, nourishing organic meals at the Chia Lounge, and stay in beautifully designed rooms with sea or pool views. Goa’s laid-back vibe and natural beauty provide the perfect backdrop for a truly transformative experience.
Your afternoons are for wandering the charming streets of Mandrem, explore its colorful shops, or simply relax on the beach. Imagine starting each day with yoga, mantra, meditation, and pranayama by the sea—then spending your free time rejuvenating in this magical place.
