About this selection

Dharamsala is seat of the Tibetan Government in Exile and the Dalai Lama's home — Buddhist scholarship, monastery culture, and mountain altitude create an unparalleled meditation environment. Dharamsala has a strong Ashtanga lineage. The Mysore-style morning practice, the self-paced approach, and the direct teacher-student relationship of this tradition suit the retreat culture here particularly well. July falls outside Dharamsala's peak yoga season, which runs March, April, May. That said, retreats run year-round and the off-season offers genuine advantages: lower prices, smaller groups, and a quieter environment that some practitioners actively prefer. The practice itself is unchanged.
