Practising yoga amidst mountain splendour
Nestled amidst sparkling brooks, pure mountain lakes and deep, silent forests, the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Retreat House was opened in 1998. Ever since, people from around the world have taken part in the time-honoured daily programme, finding their way back to a holistic lifestyle in harmony with nature and the fresh mountain air.
Experience for yourself the many benefits of yoga – increased resistance to stress, greater lung capacity, weight loss, regeneration and improved function of all body systems.
Today in the West there is no doubt about the healing and preventive benefits of yoga. Yoga gently brings body and mind into harmony with the laws of nature and illumines the search for a deeper meaning in life.
Everyone can practice yoga, no matter their age, culture or religion.
Magic of the mountains
Experience the magic of the mountains during a yoga vacation: yoga exercises on our sunny platform with its panoramic view of the Alps, meditation at sunrise or sunset facing the snowy peaks of the Kaiser range, endless footpaths to summits and lakes... or simply time to relax, read or converse on one of our sunny patios. In winter, your yoga vacation becomes even more delightful with cross-country and downhill skiing, snowshoeing or torch-lit evening walks.
The Sivananda Yoga Retreat House, nestled on a sunny slope overlooking the village of Reith, affords magnificent views of the Tyrolean Alps. The famous winter resort Kitzbühel, one of the most picturesque towns in the Alps, is just four kilometres away.
More than 50 years of experience
After more than 50 years of teaching yoga in the West, we have vast experience in the use of integral yoga techniques as a practical enrichment for everyday life. In workshops and special asana classes, you will learn various exercise series that you can also practise at home. The yoga vacation offers a diverse set of seminars on asanas and pranayama, health, stress management, Ayurveda and nutrition. The weekly cooking workshop shows you how you too can prepare healthy, fresh and energising dishes at home in no time at all.
The Seminar House is open year round. You can come at any time and stay as long as you like. We recommend a stay of several days so that you can learn all aspects of yoga, step by step.
