For the rest of your life

Yoga Retreat at The Hermitage!

An authentic Yoga Retreat including Ayurvedic treatments, delicious vegetarian food, and healthy drinks.

Yoga is an indispensable aid to good health and a natural and enjoyable way to bring your mind, body, and spirit back into balance. Increasing numbers of people are finding that a simple yoga routine can add hugely to one’s enjoyment of life.

Here at The Hermitage, we are fortunate to have the opportunity to practice yoga in the most beautiful and tranquil natural surroundings: a nourishing tropical garden dotted with graceful coconut palms and cooled by balmy breezes from the Arabian Sea.

Our yoga classes take place in two locations. The Patanjali Yoga Hall overlooks the beach and is built of wood and stone. Light, spacious and airy it sits at the south of the site, offering fine views of the ocean while providing a settled and tranquil atmosphere lulled by the sound of the waves. Alternatively, the Garden Yoga Terrace, which also fronts the sea, is an ideal venue for out-of-doors practice nurtured by the enlivening energy of sunrise or the calm of a spectacular sunset.

“A perfect distillation of what so many Westerners from E. M. Forster and Allen Ginsberg to the Beatels, have come to India in an attempt to find: an escape from the pressures and frenzied pace of life"
