the retreat:
Join Morgan O’Hare, Carter Miles, and the Present Practice Yoga community for an unforgettable 7-day Yoga Retreat & Intensive in beautiful Koh Samui, Thailand at Vikasa Yoga Center. This transformative retreat is open to all levels of practice. The intention of this Retreat & Intensive is to connect deeply with yourself and your practice. Gift yourself the time and space to disconnect from your busy life so you can reconnect with yourself and your life like never before. Plus, you’ll have our incredible community to support and expand your experience.
Dive deep into all limbs of the practice of yoga over the course of our week together while immersing yourself in Thai culture, eating nourishing and delicious food at the Life Cafe, recovering in the ice baths overlooking the ocean, getting a massage, and so much more. Vikasa is a yoga oasis and we can’t wait to be here with you!
KOH SAMUI, THAILAND
Koh Samui is Thailand’s second largest island and is known for its palm-fringed beaches, crystal clear water, coconut groves, and dense rainforest. It’s the perfect oasis for our Yoga Retreat & Intensive.
We will be staying at Vikasa Yoga Center, which is one of the top retreat and training centers in the world! There are stunning ocean views and tropical magic everywhere you look. With four different open-air yoga shalas and a massive yoga community, our group of 30-50 will be able to mingle with some of the international yoga community that travels from far and wide to practice at Vikasa. We will have our own dedicated yoga shala for all of our practices, plus have some of our meditation practices on the private beach. Think morning meditation listening to the waves crashing on the rocks, extended asana practices overlooking the ocean, afternoon workshops to advance your practice, and plenty of free time to rest or explore.
All of Vikasa is stunning, and each room has AC and the comforts you’'ll need after long days of yoga and exploring. There is an infinity edge pool, outdoor spa areas, ice baths overlooking the ocean, open-air yoga shalas, and the Life Cafe which serves delicious and healthy food to sustain our practices.
yoga & programming
Yoga teaches us to turn inward, make peace with the present moment, and open our hearts to life around us. This 7-day container, without the distractions of everyday life, offers the opportunity to truly connect with your deepest intentions. With all the distractions of life on pause, there is space to carve out your path and reconnect to your life with purpose and clarity. This retreat and intensive will include deep self-study, yoga practice, and connection with a wonderful community.
Each morning, we will have a morning session that includes meditation, pranayama (breathwork), an extended asana practice (75-90min), and group discussion and reflection based on yoga philosophy. Afternoon sessions are 2-3 hours and include workshops such as breath training, handstands and inversions, backbends and heart-openers, and asana clinics. After dinner, we will have time to connect in community, swim, sit around the bonfire, and more.
This retreat is open to anyone willing to dive deep – all levels of practice are welcomed and encouraged. Additionally, registered yoga teachers will receive continuing education hours through Present Practice School of Yoga.
nourishment
Vikasa is known for healthy, fresh, and delicious food from their world-renowned chef. Each day, we will enjoy a large brunch and dinner spread to support and nourish our yoga practices and workshops.
Each day, we will have our morning practice before indulging in a delicious brunch spread prepared by their chef. We will give ourselves time to digest before our afternoon workshops, then indulge in a wonderful dinner spread. Dietary restrictions can be easily accommodated. You are welcome to order additional snacks and meals at their Life Cafe during free time.
Everything at Vikasa is open-air, so you’ll enjoy your meals while hearing the waves crashing against the beach. Vikasa focuses on whole foods that are delicious, nourishing, and creative.
activities & adventures
On top of all the yoga, meditation, and breathwork, we will explore the island and immerse ourselves in Thai culture! This retreat includes a waterfall hike, sunset cruise, elephant sanctuary visit, and more. Plus, we will do several ice baths together (for those willing) after morning practices. You’ll have free time during the day to swim in the ocean, hang out on the beach, journal in your retreat journal, and connect with others on the retreat.
Plus, Vikasa has an incredible spa where you can get different spa treatments and massages during your free time!
