Escape to a natural sanctuary among Virginia’s verdant foothills and rediscover the peace within during Yogaville’s annual Spring Silent Retreat.

Take a few days to step back from your regular routines. Lift the spirit and refresh the body and mind. Through stillness, silence, and Yoga practices, become reacquainted with your true nature of ease and peace.

At Satchidananda Ashram–Yogaville you will experience a silent retreat under the guidance of skilled Integral Yoga practitioners.

Integral Yoga promotes an easeful body, a peaceful mind, and a useful life. Developed by Swami Satchidananda, the path of Integral Yoga uses every aspect of life as a stepping stone to one’s supreme goal—lasting happiness and inner peace. The practices of Integral Yoga, including meditation, and Hatha Yoga, will help you to realize the peace which is your own true nature.

Whether you are seeking relaxation, instruction in Yoga practices, or support in your personal practice, the Integral Yoga Silent Retreat will provide the perfect foundation for your personal retreat.

This program offers:

  • Workshops on yogic lifestyle and philosophy led by senior Integral Yoga practitioners
  • Meditation for connecting with one’s inner peace
  • Hatha Yoga practices for cleansing and rejuvenation
  • Delicious, vegetarian meals for an enhanced immune system
  • Opportunities to practice Karma Yoga (selfless service) in various service areas*, including the Yogaville Kitchen, Farm, and grounds
    * Please bring sturdy shoes and water bottles for Farm or Ground Karma Yoga Service
