Yogiville

Yogiville

Yogiville locations in India & Croatia are truly self-sustaining, beautiful, and natural sanctuaries where rejuvenation, exploration and relaxation can be enjoyed in a harmonious environment. They are places and concepts, to help achieve balance and harmony between the mind, body, and spirit, both individually and in relationship with the world around us.

Applying yoga principles to daily life means adopting healthy practices and attitudes, ultimately leading to enlightenment or Samadhi. Each person’s journey is constantly evolving, as their relationship with self and the world around them evolves. Yogiville enables a yoga lifestyle where you can commit to living life fully and to performing actions mindfully.

At Yogiville, we are traditional with our approach, for example, the food prepared at our locations is grown onsite or locally, is organic and will follow sattvic principles, i.e., all vegetarian, no eggs, onion, garlic, or mushrooms.  Healthy meals are provided, fruit available throughout the day to snack on along w/ chai, herbal teas (some grown onsite) and filtered water. 

We see yoga as a way of life, not just a physical practice and the approach we take to nutrition / food is just one example.    Another example is how critical yoga and meditation are to the onsite charity school we support in India.  You will see for yourself; each school day starts with all students practicing yoga and meditation.   These classes are integral to their education, health, behaviour, and focus.  We really hope that the school can change the future for these children, as we get back to basics with yoga.   

There are many places to walk, meditate, chill out and reconnect with your inner child.  Reconnecting with nature is part of the Yogiville experience.  You can help in community projects, orchard, vegetable garden or relax in a hammock under a tree or go for a dip in our swimming pool (India) or lake, rivers or streams (Croatia).

Yogiville India is a comprehensive site for travellers, retreat guests, training groups and day visitors.  Yogiville includes a variety of accommodations, kitchen, indoor, outdoor and open dining areas (Ananda Kitchen), purpose built yogashala in the round, Yajnashala for self-practice or smaller group practice, Buddha Bowl – Meditation Dome, Temple area, swimming pool, Neuroprana Wellness Centre with Ayurvedic treatments, farmland, orchards, cows and goshalas, roaming footpaths, hammock areas, a gift shop, charity projects including a Primary School, Sita Devi Charity School, on adjacent property. 

Yogiville India is over 13 acres of land situated which is on the outskirts of the town of Tiruvannamalai and at the base of the holy Mt Arunachala, “Fire Mountain of Wisdom”, recognised by many as the spiritual heart of the world.   We are blessed with constant views of Mt Arunachala and uninterrupted views of the stunning sunrises kissing the sky as we start each day.

Relocating from its northern home in Vridabhan, the southern locatioin has been developing since 2012 at the keen vision of Yogi Ashokananda,   Designed for sadhana. 

Yogiville Croatia overlooks Lake Begovac, and is situated in the Lika Region of Croatia, just north of Plitivice Lakes National Park, UNESCO site. Surrounded by unspoilt nature, forests, lakes, streams, and mountains, Yogiville Croatia will launch in 2022 for guests.

Our remote location across 80+ acres make connecting with yourself through nature an absolute living dream.   The site includes a variety of accommodations houses, Monk Pods and camping, indoor dining area in an old, converted barn and open dining areas in a beautiful stone courtyard.  The yoga studio is currently housed in an old, converted barn and a stunning outdoor platform high on the hill overlooking the mysterious lake below.  There are many meditation areas in nature or onsite, with nature in her abundance. 

The area has been transformed over the past couple years from a distressed war-torn village into our Croatian home, converting old barns, constructing log cabins (Monk Pods), rebuilding the houses while maintaining the land which is abundant with a variety of fruit and nut trees, flowers, plants, vegetation, and wildlife. You will experience breath-taking sunsets over the lake and the intoxicating bright, starry night skies.
