Relax, Destress and Rejuvenate
We’ll be staying at our beautiful retreat centre, a true dream location to relax and feel in harmony with nature. Set on Polem Beach, one of Goa’s most stunning beaches, Ravi Yoga offers a peaceful space to rest, retreat and return back to yourself.
Immersion into Authentic Indian Yoga & Culture
With plenty of free time to explore the Goan beaches and warm Indian culture, it will be a transformative and sociable time, with a traditional Puja welcome ceremony, daily Yoga and pranayama sessions, meditation and Yoga philosophy workshops, group meals catered by our private retreat chefs, a complimentary boat trip, ayurvedic massages on site, optional excursions to spice plantations and temples.
Whether you want to deepen your knowledge of traditional yoga or you just need to slow down, unplug and de-stress, please feel welcome to join us.
Yoga with Ravi Dixit
Ravi will share his years of experience of teaching Hatha, Ashtanga and Iyengar yoga to create a holistic practice, bringing harmony to body and mind, leaving you feeling energized and with more clarity.
Mornings will start with a dynamic yoga class, focused on connecting breath with movement, working on flexibility, balance and strength, followed by pranayama practice.
Afternoons will be free time with a late afternoon yoga session. These classes will be slightly shorter and generally slower paced. On some days this session may be a workshop on meditation, yoga philosophy or a time for going deeper into our pranayama practice. We'll finish in time to have a moment to relax and refresh before dinner.
The retreat includes 3 specialised workshops:
- Meditation for Stress Relief
- Pranayama, Bandha, Mudra & Mantra
- Yoga Philosophy: understanding the Path of Yoga
We’ll practice in a spacious open-aired yoga shala, with stunning sea views and the sound of ocean waves. Yoga mats and props such as bricks and belts are all available at the venue
“Ravi is an inspiring, motivating and very detailed and articulate yoga teacher"
"After 5 days of yoga classes my body felt more stretched and flexible than ever and learning his techniques has encouraged me to incorporate practice every day since returning home to London. For this I am very grateful as I can feel the benefits already. The food is also very tasty and healthy and they were incredibly accommodating to our vegan and GF requirements”

Beachfront & Sea View Accommodation
Our boutique beach huts have clean, simple designs, comfortable King size and Twin beds with touches of traditional Indian fabrics. Natural materials have been used throughout and all furniture is handmade. All rooms have a private veranda with outdoor seating, air conditioning and modern en-suite bathrooms with hot water showers, and complimentary ayurvedic care products and daily cleaning service.
And the best part? Each room has a wonderful view of the ocean and is just steps away from the beach.
Beach, Excursions & Activities
Between yoga sessions there'll be plenty of time for relaxation and activities. Polem Beach is a beautiful quiet beach, perfect for swimming and daily strolls on the shore, the resort offers lots of quiet relaxation spots, and private beach loungers with umbrellas. You can treat yourself to a massage or venture out to one of the nearby beach towns: from the resort it's a 15 mins drive to Patnem and Palolem, with many beach cafes, restaurants and many shops.
We’ll be organising two days of optional group excursions to a traditional spice plantation, temples, hidden beaches and eating out at some of South Goa’s best spots.
There will be a traditional Puja opening ceremony on the first day and we’ll have a surprise cultural programme on the last night.
Your retreat package includes a boat trip at sunset or sunrise, you may even spot a dolphin or two!
"This is THE one!”
“I am so thankful to Talita and Ravi! I was super exhausted when I got there and my stay there really saved me! Ravi is such a great yoga teacher, I could work on alignments and respiration which was super helpful to lower my stress down and finally get to be the most relaxed person on Earth! The food (veggie) was varied, colorful, delicious and made with love. If you are looking for some place to feel in harmony with nature, this is THE one!”
