Mana Yoga Retreats

Mana Yoga Retreats are amazing! Thank you Patty.I have attended four of Patty’s retreats, Byron Bay, Bali, Queens Town and Make Peace Island on the Sunshine Coast and loved every minute of all of them. Finding the time to getaway in life's busy schedule can be hard for us all, so when I do, like to ensure its time well spent. Mana Yoga retreats certainly tick all the boxes, even if you never do yoga. Relaxed and stunning locations, always accommodating environment, great mixture of yoga classes and medication sessions, amazing food and meeting lovely people along the way. I look forward to attending another one next year.

I have been lucky enough to attend two Mana Yoga Retreats now ( both in Byron Bay & Makepeace Island ) and I can't express how special these retreats are. The locations the retreats are held in are something else, hidden private tranquil sanctuaries, like something I've only experienced overseas. Patty's ability to beautifully hold and guide us through our daily Yoga or Mediation practice made us all feel so welcomed and comfortable ( it doesn't matter how skilled you are, she meets you where you are at ) And her kind, fun and easy presence really made the weekend such an enjoyable experience! To top it all off, the food was sensational and so delicious, I have been on retreats before and never have had food to this quality ( or to the same large quantity! ) I can't recommend a Mana Yoga retreat enough, I am already craving my next one. Each time I leave feeling more blissed out, grounded, re-charged and re-connected.

An ABSOLUTELY incredible experience. I have now been to two of Patty's retreats and will definitely be attending another. Everything was impeccable and well thought out - from the food, the location, the yoga and relaxation and activity options, it all created an amazingly zen weekend away. To top it all off, Patty is an amazing yoga instructor and such a beautiful soul. I can't wait to return!

Mana is a slice of heaven,Fed by Amelia and Evan,Who create with loving feels,Fresh and healthy soulful meals.Patty is so warm and wise,Really opened up my eyes.Taught us how to move and think,Cleansed our chakras with a wink.Book it! It will change your life.Bring your husband, bring your wife,Bring your bestie, but please comeMissing this would be quite dumb!Patty, Amelia and Evan are a brilliant team. They really make their guests feel nurtured. I have been inspired to push myself out of my comfort zone, and have introduced new food and routines into my life after my time with them. I also had an incredible massage from the highly intuitive Lucy during my stay at the retreat.A wonderful and transformative experience.

I had the privilege of joining Patty for the Mana Yoga and Ski Retreat in Queenstown last week and loved every minute of it! From the morning vinyasa and evening yin yoga to the incredible sustainable and locally sourced menu all the way to the accommodation and the centrality to town and the ski resorts - it was an amazing time. A fantastic way to spend a week with like-minded individuals - and the yoga was a fantastic way to loosen up muscles before and after hitting the slopes every day! My only wish is that it was longer!

We recently participated in the Bali Retreat 2017 - with a group of 8 other yogi's Australia wide. It was a brilliant experience that welcomed a balance of yoga, exercise, meditation, exploring, dinner parties, cooking classes and relaxing beach days. These retreats are perfect if you are looking for a contemporary approach to practicing yoga/meditation. It was just what we needed - a relaxing, quality time away where we didn't have to think about a single thing. Patti has a unique ability to bring strangers together who leave as friends (and teach some yoga along the way). Suitable for any level of yoga practice or (adult) age. All dietary requirements managed well. Location of accommodation was perfect - central Seminyak - walking distance from shops, cafes, restaurants and beaches if you want time to yourself. Accommodation choice was well researched: Air-conditioned, quality bedding, peaceful atmosphere (outdoor shower amongst the palms), private and secure.

I recently joined Patty and a group of lovely people at the Bangalow retreat and it was such a great experience. Many types of yoga sessions, incredible food and a beautiful, comfortable home. It felt like being enveloped in a loving hug for a few days and I left very relaxed and with a few positive ideas to adopt at home. Would highly recommend Mana Yoga.

I had a wonderful, life-changing time at Mana Retreat at Soma, Byron Bay ! It's the most beautiful location to immerse yourself in the calm of meditation and yoga. Patty and her fellow yoga teachers were absolutely THE BEST !! I came away from the retreat feeling well equipped to enthusiastically add meditation and yoga to my life on a regular basis. The accommodation is gorgeous and I came away feeling not only relaxed and calm but with a sense of being nurtured and cared for. The whole experience was so memorable and one I would highly recommend.

I recently attended the Make Peace Island Retreat with a friend and we loved it!The Island itself has super Bali vibes which was great for feeling like you are away on a holiday. The food was amazing and plentiful!Patty the instructor is amazing, super friendly and funny and her guided yoga teachings were delightful. I came home feeling like I had reset my attitude and less stressed or anxious which is just wanted I needed :-)
