About the volunteer program

This program is designed for individuals with flexible schedules, whether they are unemployed, on holiday, or navigating a transitional phase in life. It especially welcomes those who may not have the financial means to attend an extended retreat but are eager to contribute, grow, and deepen their practice. Above all, it is ideal for those with a strong desire to collaborate, learn, and immerse themselves in a supportive community centered around yoga and mindful living.

They are encouraged to apply and embody the principles of yoga, such as the yamas and niyamas, while carrying out various tasks around the retreat.
