We Love Yoga: Yoga Retreats

Making a longer commitment for a retreat that includes travel should be thought through like any other trip or study you take. Ask other yoga students or your teacher if they can recommend a retreat. Read yoga magazine reviews on various retreats. Check your daily newspaper’s travel or style section for ads or stories. Search the web. There are a growing number of yoga retreats available in a number of wonderful locations.

Prices will vary depending on style of accommodation requested and duration of the retreat. If you choose a spa type setting, prepare to pay more. An ashram is usually the most affordable choice. You may be asked to contribute your own labour in the upkeep of the facility or help with meal preparation and serving.

If you are a single female, and want to travel, a yoga retreat may offer you just enough community and structure to eliminate any worry. You may also opt to travel with your non-yogic partner, spouse and or children. There are retreats out their willing to accommodate you and your family.
