Immersions & Trainings
with humanity in mind
Gaya.
Hindu, Hebrew, Greek: “Spirit of the Earth”
At Gaya Immersions, we create transformative spaces for learning, practice, and deep listening. As a yoga sciences school, our trainings are rooted in the Gaya Yoga method, a synthesis of Ashtanga Yoga, Vinyasa Krama, and Cosmology.
Our global immersions and silent retreats are consciously crafted with people and planet in mind, supporting local communities, honouring the land, and cultivating presence, responsibility, and purpose.
