Two Weeks of Practice at Sri Yoga Shala, Sri Lanka
Jivamukti Yoga & Ashtanga Yoga Retreat
From February 22, we gather at Sri Yoga Shala for two consecutive retreat weeks, each rooted in daily practice, shared inquiry, and spacious time for integration.
The retreat opens with an introductory workshop on February 22, offering a common ground:
fundamental principles, inner aspects of the practice and a touch of philosophy, a way to arrive on the same page before the week unfolds.
Each week follows the same rhythm and structure, with a different focus.
Week 1. Jivamukti Yoga
तपः स्वाध्यायेश्वरप्रणिधानानि क्रियायोगः ॥१॥
tapaḥ svādhyāya īśvara-praṇidhānāni kriyā-yogaḥ
“Discipline, self-study, and surrender form the path of practice.”
In the first week of our retreat at Sri Yoga Shala, we will engage in Jivamukti Yoga as a living exploration of balance. The morning 90-minute classes combine asana, pranayama, and meditation, allowing movement, breath, and attention to weave together into a coherent, embodied experience.
We approach balance not as a fixed goal, but as a continuous, evolving process. The Yoga Sūtra above provides a subtle framework for this inquiry:
Tapaḥ – the power of discipline,
Svādhyāya – the willingness to meet oneself honestly,
Īśvara-pranidhāna – the trust to let go.
Together, these qualities create a space in which balance can be felt and cultivated, a delicate interplay between effort and surrender.
In the Jivamukti practice, this dynamic is experienced directly: stability and ease, discipline and devotion come into relationship. We do not practice to achieve perfect forms, but to refine sensitivity to what truly brings us to our center.
The afternoon workshops remain open, allowing themes to emerge according to the needs and interests of the group. Space will be offered for exploration, reflection, and inquiry.
This week becomes an invitation to cultivate balance rather than chase it, to attune with it, moment by moment, breath by breath.
Week 2. Ashtanga Yoga
