Yoga retreat SRI LANKA
7-night Iyengar yoga retreat
Tallala Retreat sits on a pristine, unspoilt beach, on the southern coast of Sri Lanka, 168 kms from Colombo.

The Accommodation
Talalla Retreat is a beachfront resort founded by an Aussie, who fell in love with the spiritual charm of Sri Lanka. The resort works hard to minimise the environmental and cultural impact of tourism on the area, and ensures the local community benefits economically.
There are lots of accommodation options to suit every taste and budget including Sea View Villas and Deluxe Rooms, as well as ‘glamping’ and dorm-style options. Check the Talalla Retreat website for more info about their rooms.

- Anna, Thailand 2018.
“It was such a pleasure meeting you, participating in your classes, and just getting to experience something so different from my normal. You taught me that doing something is good, but doing something with guidance can be so much more rewarding. The group of yoga ladies assembled was fantastic! I enjoyed the participation and was wowed by their abilities. You are truly excellent at what you do and your compassionate spirit was evident during the entire event.”
