Are you an intermediate yoga practitioner looking to deepen your practice? Imagine immersing yourself in a week-long retreat dedicated to advancing your yoga journey, studying the profound teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, and cultivating a transformative meditation practice.
What awaits you
Study the Bhagavad Gita
Bhagavad Gita study: Immerse yourself in the timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita. This sacred text, delivered by the Hindu God Krishna to Prince Arjuna, offers profound insights that are as relevant today as they were over 2,500 years ago. Guided by Vidya Heisel, you'll explore this transformative scripture, gaining insights into living a fulfilling and liberated life.
Advance your practice
Advance your practice workshops: Engage in daily workshops, thoughtfully curated by expert instructors. Each session delves into a different aspect of yoga, tied to themes from the Bhagavad Gita. Led by accomplished Senior FLY teachers, you'll explore these themes from philosophical, physical, and anatomical perspectives. These workshops are suitable for intermediate practitioners, with options for progression.
Meditation mastery
Discover the power of meditation: Explore various meditation techniques, breathing exercises, and concentration practices that will deepen your personal practice and enable you to skillfully share these transformative tools with your students. These practices are designed to purify and calm the mind, aligning with your Gita study and leaving you feeling refreshed and inspired.
Yoga Philosophy deep dive
Beyond the mat lies a treasure trove of philosophical insights. Engage in thought-provoking discussions about the core tenets of yoga philosophy, the nature of reality, and the path to self-discovery.

Highlights:-
Some of the other qualities that Vidya desired to make the location perfect for YTT were organic, varied, and delicious gourmet vegetarian food. Suryalila provides complimentary water, fruit, tea, and coffee all day to the trainees; even that essential cup of morning tea before practice.
You will be served three delicious daily organic meals included in the price. Suryalila prides itself on its outstanding vegetarian food. Meals are delicious, diverse, and beautifully presented, using all organic and mostly locally sourced ingredients. They are working towards supplying more and more of the product needs from their own organic garden.
Vegetarian kitchen
The Suryalila kitchen specializes in gourmet international vegetarian cuisine, using the freshest seasonal, locally sourced organic fruits and vegetables available. Eggs are gathered daily from their own happy chickens. They regularly accommodate vegan, gluten-free, and non-dairy diets, so if you have any special dietary restrictions, just let them know.
Amrita Café
Amrita bar is a vibrant addition to the retreat center. They offer a menu of cold-pressed organic juices, scrumptious smoothies, delicious snacks, Kombucha, and health-conscious hot drinks such as spicy Indian chai, vegan bulletproof coffee, ceremonial cacao, mocacao, and golden milk, which contains a super-healthy blend of spices.
Indoor and outdoor dining
They also believe that where you eat is almost as important as what you eat. They provide dining tables both indoors and outdoors so that you can eat in the large beautiful dining room or enjoy your meal al fresco, watching the stunning sunsets over the Andalucian hill towns.
