    Description

    My name is Ullas and I am a native to Varkala, Kerala, India. I have been teaching Hatha yoga and yogic meditation here since 1995. In fact, I am the first yoga teacher in Varkala.

    I am seeking individuals interested in yoga and meditation to give my yoga studio a face lift. We are seeking artists to paint murals in the studio.

    I am located on the North Cliff and the bedroom has a single bed for your stay.

    I provide accommodation and yoga classes only. There are many vegetarian restaurants next door for you to choose from.

    I am a native of Varkala, Kerala and Varkala is a highly spiritual destination. In recent years Varkala has become a top tourist destination for yoga and Ayurveda. I provide an authentic experience opposed to commercialism of this sacred area.

    You will have a choice of one small bedroom with a single bed on the top floor (I would love help to make it beautiful one day) with a view of the sea or a yoga mat in the yoga studio below. The bathroom and shower are attached to the yoga studio. There is a terrace outside the yoga studio to watch the sunset over the sea.
