Sadhana Yoga Retreat Centre

I have to be honest and say that I didn't love my time here. One staff member was more quiet and our time together was a bit awkward. They didn't seem to sense the needs of the class and the levels of people in it, they didn't offer modifications, didn't smile, just seemed to go through their set routine, not adapting it to the class's needs, etc. The other staff members were phenomenal. The other classes were enjoyable, appropriate and interactive. The food was great. Our sleeping room was clean and bright. But because the first person got us off to a few awkward hours, it kind of set the stage of us going 'hmmmm, not sure how I feel about this." The rest of the staff redeemed our time there, but we were uneasy for a good part of our stay. Would I go back here? No. Did I have a good time here? 50-50. Were some of the staff amazing? Yes! But next time, I'd try another place and see if it's better overall. I'm sorry to write that, because some staff were so great. But the awkwardness of silence and lack of interacting/empathy with the class has me thinking that I have to be honest here and consider a different environment next time. Also, note that the facility is at the top of a very big hill. It offers amazing views. But that means you gotta walk up/down that hill, so if you have mobility issues, keep that in mind.

I spent 4 days with Durga and her extended family at the Sadhana Yoga Retreat, and it was wonderful. Early in the season with the most wonderful fresh sunny weather. There were only a few other people when I was there. I it was all very special to me, the program is just beautiful and well built up, loved the mantra singing, it is very powerful. I learned a lot, and I was very at peace and zen. I am just very grateful I got to spent some time at the retreat with those wonderful loving people. Great views, beautiful food, I felt loved. And some real me time. Blessed.

What a beautiful experience! The place is really great, with a stunning view on the lake and mountains, such a peace and quiet environment to practice yoga, meditation and more. The quality of the courses is remarkable. They share their deep knowledge of yoga science and life which makes it an unforgettable experience. Plus the food is just delicious! The Sadhana family is truly wonderful, they are bright and kind poeple. It was an absolute pleasure to spend some days with them all and I highly recommend you visit them as well!
