About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Please join SWAN Yoga in Goa, India where they follow yogic philosophy in daily life and live a yogic lifestyle. SWAN Yoga Retreat's integrative, research-based yoga intensive two-week program offers participants an immersion in that yogic lifestyle.
The one week retreat is a physically, emotionally, and spiritually rejuvenating experience. The program combines the practice of asana, pranayama, mantra, deep relaxation, yoga philosophy, ayurveda treatments and plenty of free time for self-reflection.
The research-based Yoga Ayurveda Week Retreat serves as the perfect yoga introduction for beginners as well as the perfect yoga immersion for those who have been practicing yoga for some time, while you are experiencing a deep healing and relaxation through carefully picked treatments for your individual body type.
The holistic yoga program also offers more experienced students an immersion designed to deepen their practice and understanding of yoga.

Participants in this one-week yoga course will learn a wide variety of classical Hatha yoga practices including yoga asana (yoga postures), pranayama (breath control), mudras (psychic gestures), meditation, and deep relaxation techniques.
Traditional yogic detox practices will also be introduced, including jala neti (nasal passage cleansing), vaman and dhauti (stomach and esophagus cleansing), laghooshankhaprakshalana (intestinal cleansing) and trataka (gazing at a candle flame).
Within a traditional atmosphere, SWAN Yoga Retreat teaches yoga using the age-old methods of the gurukula (traditional Indian teaching method) in an environment free from dogma. Yoga philosophy is an integral part of any yoga holiday at SWAN Yoga Retreat. Fundamental to learning about yoga is an understanding of the ‘why’ behind any yogic practice. It is also crucial to understand that there is so much more to yoga than just the practice of asana (physical postures).
