SIX TO EIGHT JOURNEYS A YEAR

Retreats for the way you're made

We take small groups to sacred places — and shape each week around your dosha, so no two guests live the same retreat. This is travel that returns you to yourself.

01

Two Decades. Two Hundred Retreats. One Teacher Who Still Leads Every One.

Twenty-five years of teaching. More than 200 retreats guided across the world. Through all of it, one thing hasn’t changed — Sumit Manav leads every retreat personally. No rotating instructors, no franchised method. Just classical yoga, the way it was meant to be passed on: from teacher to student, in the room, in real time answer

02

The Only Retreat That Studies You Before It Teaches You.

Most retreats hand everyone the same schedule and hope it fits. We start the other way around — with your Ayurvedic constitution. Before you arrive, we read your dosha, then shape your practice, your food and your rest around it. Backed by 25 years of teaching and grounded in Patanjali and Ayurveda, it’s a week that could only ever have been yours.

03

Classical Roots. Modern Mind. Trusted by Dubai's & UK Best.

An E-RYT 500 master teacher in the BKS Iyengar lineage, Sumit has spent 25 years bridging ancient practice and modern neuroscience — for everyone from first-time practitioners to the teams at Emirates, Emaar and Shangri-La. That same depth travels to every retreat: real philosophy, real Ayurveda, taught by someone who has done it 200+ times.

WHY A LIFESTYLE YOGA RETREAT

Not a yoga holiday. A recalibration.

Every team has a dominant constitutional tendency. Identifying it tells us precisely what your people need from a wellness programme.

🌿

Tuned to your dosha

Your practice, food and rest are shaped around your Ayurvedic constitution. No other retreat does this — it’s the whole point of ours.
