Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You’ll have the opportunity to connect with our local community, learn traditional practices like Ayurveda, Kalari, and temple rituals, and enjoy authentic home-style Kerala meals prepared with local ingredients.
Guests are also welcome to join cultural evenings, nature walks, local market visits, and meaningful conversations with teachers and staff who share stories of Kerala’s heritage, lifestyle, and spiritual traditions. It’s a space where you not only practice yoga but also immerse yourself in the rhythm, warmth, and simplicity of everyday Kerala life.
Help
We’re looking for friendly, nature-loving volunteers who enjoy working with their hands and heart. Your support would include helping us in guest handling , assisting with yoga/wellness activities, lending a hand around the retreat, and joining simple creative projects that keep the space warm and welcoming.
