This yoga retreat package is limited to 8 guests only so that each participant will receive the appropriate attention in each class and ample space to practice. There are different practice levels to choose from so the retreat is suitable for everyone.
There will be plenty of free time for trips around the beautiful island of Koh Samui, massages and spa treatments which can be easily organised on a day-to-day basis as a group or on individual basis.
This is a week (or two, as you are able to extend) of challenging yoga practices coupled with fresh coconuts, incredible plant-based foods deliciously prepared by the highly reviewed Greenlight Café & Bar Koh Samui, sun and sea is a valuable investment which you can't afford to miss out on!
Review:
Dennis McCormick - "wanted to write a quick review after spending two weeks at Shahda Yoga. I was a bit hesitant to book a week long retreat during these COVID transition times, but it was a great choice. So great, I extended for another week.
yoga: I didnt know what to expect because the website mentioned using blocks, which I don't usually use in my practice, and it wasn't a classic vinyasa or ashtanga class. Long story short: the classes are amazing. Its hard to describe, its not a typical flow class, its very physically challenging and Era, the teacher, is amazing. She cares about her students so much and tweaks every class to ensure you get the most out of it (the classes are kind of like workshops, especially when you do the full retreat). I greatly improved my technique during my time working with Era, she has this amazing ability to study your anatomy and movements and provide tips and tricks to improve your practice. I have already incorporated alot of these tips and tricks into my routine. This is truly world class instruction.
food: super good and healthy. you get to order off the cafe menu, there are tons of options.
lodging: nice room, good aircon, good wifi. no complaints. the resort is walking distance to a nice beach, lots of great restaurants, coffee shops.. everything is right there.
value: amazing value. As mentioned, this is world class yoga instruction by a teacher who really cares about your development and personalizes your week of classes (12 in all) to help you improve your practice, along with great food and a nice place to stay. can't beat it!"
