I can vouch for that, as well as those who have travelled with me before.Check out their website Yoga United‍

- Yoga United will advise of recommended flights so to arrange our complementary airport transfers.- VISA – we will need a tourist visa – more info will follow.

- JABS – typhoid, Hep A and tetanus are advised.

- Travel Insurance recommended.

- There is another retreat happening at the same time as ours so there are plenty people to buddy up with to go shopping, excursions etc.

- If this is your first time to India, or even if not, this is a fantastic way to feel comfortable to travel and to be looked after by hosts and in a group environment as well as staying on the resort. We have meet each other at the airport and travelled together before.

‍

One day a long while ago I had a dream. I dreamt of holding a retreat in India.  I had no idea how or where it was going to happen but I knew I wanted it to happen. So I say hold your own vision up, dare to dream, watch what happens when you want something. Open yourself to all possibilities to let your dreams come true because mine did and still do.

‍

If you haven't practiced with me before I invite you to a free class or two to get a feel for me as a teacher before making the commitment to join me. You can practice either in-person in my Uxbridge classes or virtually.

Email me with any queries, questions or curiousity.
