WINTER RETREATS & WORKSHOPS ASIA 2009/10

I am very excited to have added the Thailand retreats at these two very special locations both of which I visited at the beginning of the year and fell in love with. Walking into Kamalaya is simply like being wrapped in benevolent cotton wool, where you can totally relax whilst being healed, entertained and sensually delighted all at the same time. It is no surprise therefore that Taschen has decided to put a photo of myself practising yoga on Kamalaya's beach on the cover of their new book "Great Yoga Retreats". Jungle Yoga on the other hand is everything that its name promises, so if you fancy hearing the gibbons call (for love apparently) first thing in the morning as the mist mysteriously rises from the lake on which you are floating, then this is the one for you (the jungle sounds can now be heard on the website below). The Christmas & New Year's retreat at Bhakti Kutir will now be my 9th retreat there, and all the usual suspects have already secured their bungalows, so hurry if you'd like to join us in Goa!

Retreat bookings are made straight through info@larayoga.com, so the venue websites are only listed FYI. Workshops on the other hand are booked straight through the respective studios.
