Join us as we embark onto a journey into the mythology of asanas in Manasa’s upcoming yatra to Ladakh this August with Manoj Kaimal.

You may have heard of asana names such as Virabhadrasana, Bakasana, Natarajasana, Vasisthasana and Ashtavakrasana but do you know the mythology behind these names? At this yoga retreat, set in a luxurious river-fronting hotel with a picturesque mountain backdrop in the outskirts of Leh, Manoj will expose you to great stories and rich teachings underlying the names of yoga poses. Expect to be taken deep into each asana, not only from a bio-mechanical perspective, but also from mythological and philosophical perspectives.

This 5 full-day intense yatra program is for anyone who is of the intention of deepening their experience and understanding of yoga.

NOTE: This is the first time Manasa Yoga will be having this intensive yoga retreat with Manoj Kaimal in Ladakh and we are very excited about it. A NON-REFUNDABLE deposit is necessary to secure your PLACE at this yatra. Due to limited space, yatra participants will be confirmed based on a first-come-first-served basis upon receipt of deposit or full payment.
