Want to come to South Africa with us?

Here's what we have planned:

Morning yoga sessions (doesn't matter if you're new to it)
Four safari drives - we're talking actual lions and elephants
Swimming in the ocean whenever we feel like it
Hiking through some beautiful jungle trails
Volunteering with the local community (this part always ends up being the most meaningful)

There's something about this combination of adventure, relaxation, and actually helping people that just feels right. Plus, you'll come back feeling like a completely different person.

Yoga retreat destination: South Africa

We're taking you to three totally different spots in South Africa that'll blow your mind.

First, we'll chill at Pumula Retreat with its gorgeous coastal gardens and ocean views where you can actually relax. Then we'll head to the Drakensberg mountains - these ancient peaks that make you feel so small in the best way. Finally, Nambiti Game Reserve where you'll see Africa's wild animals doing their thing.

Yoga Retreat accommodation

Pumula Retreat sits on this huge coastal property with ocean views and forest access - just a quick walk to the beach. Then we'll head to Didima Resort in the Drakensberg Mountains, designed to honor the San people who lived there. Finally, Ndaka Safari Lodge, a converted African farmstead that feels like home but with lions nearby.

Each place has its own magic.
