22 FEBRUARY - 03 MARCH 2027

10-DAY
BIKRAM YOGA RETREAT
& SAFARI

"I am not African because I was born in Africa
but because Africa was born in me!"

READY FOR AN ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME?

10 days are not enough to show you this beautiful country, but I will do my best to try…

This authentic African Adventure is an exceptional blend of yoga, relaxation, and wildlife. It offers an opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich culture of Africa and discover its best-kept secrets.

Embark on a journey to the heart of  Kenyas National Parks, some of the world’s most famous wildlife reserves. Kenya is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, diverse wildlife, and unique cultural experiences. With its rolling hills, vast plains, and vibrant sunsets, Kenya offers an unforgettable experience for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.

During our week in Diani, you will have the chance to participate in a variety of yoga classes and meditations designed for all levels. You will be surrounded by stunning venues, including yoga on the beach, meditation under the moon. You will also get to experience a welcome ceremony at the beach, a boat tour, African dance classes, and other exciting activities that will immerse you in the local culture.

During your 4-day safari tour you will have the opportunity to see all the African Big Five, including lions, elephants, leopards, buffalos, and rhinos. You will stay in some of the top  resorts, where you can relax and recharge between game drives and enjoy the stunning views.

This once-in-a-lifetime adventure will take you far from the stresses of everyday life and provide a unique opportunity to connect with nature, rejuvenate your mind and body, and discover the rich culture of Africa. Get ready for an unforgettable trip that will create memories to last a lifetime.

ONE WEEK DIANI BEACH

Each day will start with a group morning meditation session followed by a covered indoor or outdoor Bikram Yoga class. Afterwards, we’ll provide a vegetarian brunch, and then take time to enjoy a treatment or just relax in and around the pool or by the white sandy beach. In the afternoon, you’ll enjoy a different workshop every day (e.g. Posture clinics, Breathwork, Cacao Ceremony  and many more – be surprised) followed by an evening meal including fresh local seafood.

WILL WE SEE THE BIG 5?

After six years of spending every winter in Kenya and joining over 20 safaris, I have personally seen all of the Big Five — and I am taking you to the very best spots to give you the greatest chance of doing the same. Rather than the crowded, touristy safari routes, I have carefully chosen unique destinations across different national parks where you can encounter a wide variety of wildlife in a far more intimate setting. Leopards are always rare — but absolutely possible! 

What makes this retreat truly special is that you won’t just be watching from a car. You will have the rare opportunity to walk alongside wild animals and cycle through the bush — close enough to feel the magic, but always safe. An experience most people never get to have.

WATANO HOUSE DIANI

Some places you visit. Others stay with you forever. Watano is one of those places — a timeless beachfront villa nestled on the pristine white sands of Diani Beach, where the Indian Ocean stretches endlessly before you and the rest of the world simply fades away. With eight beautifully appointed bedrooms sleeping up to 16 guests, Watano is the perfect sanctuary for groups, families, or anyone seeking that rare combination of luxury, stillness, and pure coastal magic.
