IS THIS RETREAT FOR YOU?
This is a perfectf peaceful mountain getaway in rural Nepal. Begnas Lake is only 15km away from Pokhara, but it is still undiscovered and unspoiled by massive tourism.
You will not meet hoards of tourists on Begnas Lake. For now. So hurry up and visit while the place is still authentic. When we will not be doing yoga, we can hike on the local mountain paths, swim, row small boats, or sunbathe by the lake. We will discover charm, hospitality and the natural beauty of the Nepali villages 
ACCOMMODATION
We will stay in a family-run Yoga and Meditation Retreat Center, located on top of a small hill, 5 minutes away from the lake and away from other guest houses. It is very quiet and feels quite secluded - a perfect place to do the exploration within (as well as without), surrounded by green hills, overlooking the lake and admiring the imposing Himalayas.
You can choose between having a private room, or staying in a double or a triple room. All rooms have en-suite bathroom. The center has a covered yoga hall with the impressive views of the lake and the mountains. The rooms are simple, but comfortable and clean. 
FOOD
All Brunches and dinners are included in the price of the retreat - they are served with tea or coffee and are always freshly prepared. On the days when there are no other activities scheduled, lunch at the center is also included in the price of the retreat.
On one of our hikes, we will stop to have a lunch with a local village family. This lunch is also covered by the retreat fee. All other meals and drinks in or out of the center are not included in the indicated price. All the food served in the retreat center is vegetarian.

YOGA & MEDITATION
We will practice two times a day in a stunning yoga hall with the view of the Himalayas and the Lake. Marija teaches traditional Hatha yoga, with a lot of emphasis on the proper alignment of the body, breath and focus. Apart from asana (posture), we will pracice pranayama (yogic breathing), as well as meditation in each class. The classes are organized as workshops, during which we will explore different physical, mental and spiritual aspects of the practice. The retreat is suitable for all levels. Beginners will have the chance to get the taste of yoga and build a strong foundation for their yogic journey. More experienced yogis will deepen their understanding and get some inspiration to further develop their practice. 
DAY BY DAY
Mornings are reserved for our practice, which will usually take around 2 hours. We'll have an early start, and after the class, we will have a freshy prepared brunch.
Afternoons are filled with various activities – we will go on hikes into the mountains, or to visit local villages and see the traditional Nepalese lifestyle. On some days we will stay around the lake, swim, go on a boat ride and just soak up the incredible energy of this place. Evenings will see us back in the center, having another shorter class (1-1.5 hours) before delicious home cooked buffet-style dinner around 7.00 PM. After dinner, there is free time for everybody. All activities and classes are optional, and everybody is welcome to skip any of them any time they feel like it.
