Wellness Escape: 11-Day Multi-Style Yoga and Healing Retreat in Arambol, Goa

The 100-hour program is structured for people who want to go deeper into yoga without committing to a full 200-hour teacher training. It covers asana practice, pranayama, meditation, and yoga philosophy, alongside introductions to anatomy and Ayurveda. The style is multi-style, drawing from Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Hatha, Aerial, Yin, and more, so you'll get exposure to different approaches and find what resonates with you.

Each day follows a rhythm that builds in physical practice and study. Mornings begin with meditation and mantra chanting before breakfast, followed by a long asana session. After lunch, you'll have a break before returning for teaching practice, where students take turns leading the group. Evenings wind down with Yoga Nidra or Trataka. Saturdays include cleansing techniques (Shatkarma), and Sundays are a full day off, with no meals provided, so you can explore Goa or simply rest.

The teaching team stands out. Shiva, the lead teacher, is described as a barefoot yogi whose passion for yogic life comes through in his teaching of Hatha Vinyasa, alignment, and mantra. Pallavi, who also manages the team, teaches Hatha, anatomy, and pranayama, with classes that build strength and mobility. Together they create an environment where you're both supported and challenged.

The location adds to the experience. Arambol is a town with a long history as a gathering place for travelers, and the shala's surroundings—lush greenery, swaying palms, and near the beach—make it easy to relax between sessions. The property itself has a garden, a meditation room with a Shivalinga, a community kitchen, and a yoga shala, all designed to support practice and community living.
