Monastery Yoga Retreat in Kathmandu, Nepal

Experience Stillness, Simplicity, and Spiritual Depth in Sacred Spaces

Step into the heart of Himalayan spirituality with our Monastery Yoga Retreat programs, uniquely offered in and around the Kathmandu Valley. Unlike any typical yoga retreat, this immersive experience allows you to live and practice in active Buddhist monasteries, surrounded by chanting monks, ancient teachings, and serene mountain energy. Whether you’re seeking personal transformation, deep meditation, or a glimpse into monastic life, this retreat offers a rare opportunity to disconnect from the noise of daily life and reconnect with your true self.

At Himalayan Yoga Academy, we collaborate with multiple monasteries to offer authentic, enriching retreats that blend traditional yoga practices with Buddhist philosophy. Each program is carefully curated to harmonize yoga, mindfulness, and cultural learning in sacred, peaceful environments. We also specialize in custom-designed experiences—tailored to your personal goals, schedule, or group needs—offering flexible durations, levels of immersion, and locations.
