Description
Our place is dedicated to holistic health, built from ground up with spacious and ventilated yoga shala and meditation room, simple rooms, and beautiful garden by the Mekong River. We are also an accredited Yoga Alliance International school, which ensures the best possible teaching and guidance is provided.
We used to be located in Siem Reap but we recently relocated during the pandemic. We are now on a new journey and wishing to share it with you all.
Our goal is to provide you with a thoughtfully designed, friendly and peaceful environment during your stay with us, allowing you to learn and deepen your practice of meditation and yoga.
Such spiritual, physical and culinary experience combined will provide you with the inner tools you need in order to mentally and physically let go.

Accommodation
Private ventilated room with shared bathroom with one other volunteer.
Our yoga garden and facilities is located about 15km away from Phnom Penh, right by the Mekong River in the charming village of Puk Russey in the Kandal Province.
It is easy to arrive at our center from Phnom Penh, we guide you through the process.
Volunteers will contribute exchange for food and accommodation (3 meals per day). This is a great opportunity to immerse in the beauty and spirituality of Cambodia and take a break by the peaceful Mekong River.
We have 2 cats.
Please bear in mind that we have a big garden surrounded by water and nature, so please be ready to meet all types of insects and animals.
What else ...
Cycling along the river, visit the Island of Koh Dach known as the Silk Island where they produce artisanal silk cloth, boat trip along the Mekong river and explore vibrant city of Phnom Penh.
You can also take time to slow down and be still onsite, admiring the sunsets on the deck and swim in the pool...
Soon we will have a boat, so if things go smoothly, there might be options to enjoy a little trip along the river.
