About This Retreat

This retreat is currently sold out. Please complete this registration form to be added to the waitlist.

Journey to the heart of Rajasthan, where ancient fort walls and sacred temples stand watch over the quiet Indian countryside. Set within the world-renowned Six Senses Fort Barwara, this retreat offers the opportunity to experience both yoga and luxury at their very finest.

Each day begins with breakfast overlooking the Aravalli Hills and unfolds into 4 hours of transformative asana practice, breathwork and reflection with Colleen Saidman and Rodney Yee. Together they’ll guide us through practices that awaken the mind, balance the body, and reveal the secrets of yoga.

After our morning session, you might relax in the Fort’s lush gardens, enjoy an Ayurvedic treatment at the spa, or cool off in one of the sparkling swimming pools. For those who wish to adventure in the afternoons, or in the days before and after retreat, Rajasthan offers endless wonders— from the pink streets of Jaipur, to the iconic Taj Mahal, to the wild beauty of Ranthambore National Park, where tigers and leopards wander freely.

Here, in the birthplace of yoga, we’ll connect to the roots of our practice and return to our most true Selves.

Formerly a 700-year old royal fort, the Six Senses Fort Barwara has been meticulously restored into a sanctuary of wellness. The property’s luxury suites seamlessly blend heritage architecture with modern comforts.
