WELCOME TO CHAYA YOGA RETREATS
‘Chaya’ meaning beauty, lustre, and protection in Sanskrit. In Hebrew, it means life - or to live.
Our intention is to offer you the possibility of seeing - and feeling - the beauty of life, anew.
For over 14 years, we’ve been holding powerful, life-affirming retreat experiences around the world, rooted in deep integrity and crafted with exquisite, loving care.
Chaya is more than a retreat, it’s a family.
For many years, we’ve been building something quietly special: a community of long-time collaborators, lifelong friends, and returning guests, who feel like home to one another. Many of our guests have hit double retreat figures, having travelled with us all around the world. Which we humbly feel, is a true testament to the trust, devotion and connection at the heart of everything we do.
Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, you’re always invited to be a part of the Chaya Family.
It’s truly a magical place, where real friendships are made and life-changing experiences unfold. From the beaches of Bali to the rolling hills of England, beneath the starry skies of India to the stillness of Ibiza, we’ve spent over a decade creating retreats that support healing and renewal.
Each retreat carries its own unique prayer; a subtle but powerful intention that shapes the entire experience.
Every element, from the practices to the food, the setting to the team, is thoughtfully chosen to bring that intention to life.
Expect breathtaking natural surroundings. World-class practitioners from diverse paths. Nourishing plant-based feasts, by our incredible in-house chefs. And deeply restorative treatments, from our trusted little black book.
Our close-knit, expert team brings decades of experience across wellness, travel, and facilitation - and is devoted to curating beautiful, easeful healing spaces, that meet you exactly where you are.
Because every journey is unique, just like you.
Chaya Yoga Retreats. Rest for your mind. Love for your body. Pure joy for your heart.
