Samadhi is owned by antique dealer and organic farmer manqué, Waruna Jayasinghe, erstwhile hippy, who has turned a piece of jungle into a small, perfectly balanced micro-kingdom which supplies you with all the creature comforts for your retreat.
During this retreat, you will enjoy seven yoga classes, cookery lessons, and a wonderful trip to a local waterfall where you will have the opportunity to enjoy a delicious picnic and a river-bathing experience. The yoga lessons will be dynamic and creative designed for all levels, from beginners to experienced practitioners.
