our yoga program
The yoga program is based on the principles of Yoga Synergy.
Yoga Synergy is a practice founded on traditional yoga but approached with a modern understanding of human physiology and anatomy. Influenced by the forgotten yoga’s of China and Japan, this practice focuses on the how and why of movement and flowing practices which look a lot like Qi Gong. Find more details about the yoga and the teachers in our info pack.

The all-vegan food is prepared by our amazing kitchen team. Much of the spices and veggies come from Lanka Yoga’s garden, we serve a delicious chef-designed vegan menu that utilizes as many local and home-grown ingredients as possible.
