7 Days Yoga Retreat in Manila

What a 7-day retreat like this usually involves

A 7-day retreat is long enough to settle into a routine: most weeks follow a fixed daily timetable with morning practice, free time or activities in the middle of the day, and a slower session in the evening. Expect one lighter day for rest or an excursion, and count arrival and departure days as part of the 7, so ask how many full days of classes there are.

This programme pairs yoga with Ayurveda. Treat these as wellness sessions rather than medical care: tell the practitioner about any condition or medication you take, and keep your own doctor for anything medical. Read what Ayurveda is and how it relates to yoga for the background.

It runs on a recurring calendar, which makes it easier to plan around, but confirm that the exact dates you want are running before you book flights.

Questions to ask Philippines Rishikesh Ayurveda Yoga School before you book

• What is not covered by the published price? Flights, transfers, some meals and paid activities are often extra.
• Which dates are confirmed, and how many places are left on them?
• Who teaches the yoga, how long have they taught, and what level are the classes pitched at?
• Can the classes be adapted for an injury, a health condition or pregnancy?
• What is the cancellation policy if you need to pull out, and does it allow a transfer to a later date?

How it compares with the other retreats we list

Length: at 7 days, it sits at the long end of the 7 retreats we list, which run from 4 to 7 days; 3 other retreats are the same length.

Location: it is the only retreat we list in Metro Manila. For drop-in classes nearby, see yoga studios in Parañaque.

Price: 4 of the 7 retreats publish a price. Their lowest listed figures run from USD 377 to 2,700, and this one is the lowest. Organisers price on different terms (per person, per booking, by room type), so compare what each price includes rather than the figure alone.
