“A Wonderfully Relaxing and Healthful Retreat” Mercedes Pepper New York USA

Reviewed 19 January 2014 on Trip Advisor

If you want to truly relax from your life’s daily chaos, and/or simply immerse yourself in yoga and an ayruvedic lifestyle, Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre is the perfect place.

I was fortunate enough to spend a month studying traditional hatha yoga and ayruveda while at Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre , and this time was not only enlightening but magnificent.

Shukl’acharya is a superb yoga and spiritual teacher and his wife Samrita is fabulous to learn ayruvedic principles and cooking from (every meal

I had was delicious and nutritious). They are an incredibly sweet and welcoming couple, who add the personal touch that leaves you with a specialized and everlasting experience.

I came to study yoga, and I’m so glad I choose Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre because my time was personalized and I was not in a more commercial course (many I know of only teach the surface, one right way, and despite them teaching yoga true sincerity can lack). I use the knowledge gained from Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre daily and I certainly hope I can return again.

In addition, not only are the teachers and staff top-notch, the picturesque setting couldn’t get any better to explore in your free time or gaze upon from your terrace.

(I traveled in February 2013, but in actuality it was May 2011. Two and a half years later, I still reflect on my exceptional time at Shuklacharya’s Retreat & Spiritual Centre which encouraged me to write this review in 2014).
