Yoga With Maja
Yoga, shared meals, and reconnection
Yoga here begins with a personal story: Maja turned to the practice while looking for steadiness through anxiety and depression, then travelled alone to India for a 200-hour Hatha Yoga teacher training. Her retreats carry that experience into teaching, with an emphasis on reconnecting with the body and heart and cultivating inner peace, love and gratitude. In Sataya, the retreat experience also centers on shared meals: a buffet is served three times a day, with vegan, vegetarian, fish and meat choices, plus snacks between meals. Gluten-free options are listed as well. Air conditioning in rooms, towels, coffee and tea, and a restaurant are among the practical comforts. The exact daily schedule and lodging arrangements can vary, so ask Maja about the details for your dates. Retreat prices start at USD 400, making this a personal, food-inclusive-in-spirit yoga getaway to investigate directly before booking.
