When we plan a trip to Goa we think of large sea beaches and a lovely sun bath. However, the enthusiastic Yoga practitioners are very well aware of the Swan Yoga. This Yoga is practised in harmony with the nature around. It is away from the normal din of the "tourist" places of Goa. Although not so far away, the nearest beaches being Anjuna and Vagatore are just 15 minutes away on a motorbike. The place is run and managed by the yogis of Bihar School of Yoga. These Yoga retreats are inspired from the sadhanas put forth by Bihar School of Yoga through Yoga publications trust.
This retreat center is located in the village of Assagao(situated on hilltop) known for its serenity and picturesque locales. The retreat is open for tourists and guests from October-May. People are motivated to come here for yoga retreats, vacations, holidays, meditation retreats, yoga detox retreats, weight loss retreats, yoga therapy retreats and treatment of specific diseases. Also ancient Indian medicine system treatments like Ayurveda massage, Ayurveda treatments, and various Ayurveda panchkarma treatments are done here.

Hawans are organised (sacred fire ritual) on every Saturday & chanting of Maha Mritunjaya Mantra is done.
