About this selection
Mysore is the birthplace of Ashtanga yoga — where Pattabhi Jois taught, where KPJAYI authorises teachers, and where every serious Ashtanga practitioner makes pilgrimage. Hatha yoga in Mysore offers a return to fundamentals — classical postures held with intention, pranayama, and the time to understand each asana from the inside. The teachers here carry lineages that trace back generations. Seven days is the most popular retreat length in Mysore for good reason — it's enough time to develop a real practice routine, experience the local culture and environment, and return home with something that lasts. The first two days are arrival and settling; the final two are integration. September is one of Mysore's best months for retreat — Karnataka's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in September tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
