A few things to keep in mind before booking a yoga retreat

Yoga can help with many ailments, but if you have any particular concerns or health issues, or are suffering from any illness or injury, we advise you to consult a qualified medical practitioner beforehand.

It is important to refrain from eating at least two hours before class and not to drink at least 30 minutes before class. We strongly discourage drinking anything during Asana practice; however, it is important to drink plenty of water after your session.

You should wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothing, preferably made of natural fibres. Bring a yoga mat, a towel, a sense of humour and an open-minded willingness to learn.

It gets quite chilly at night in the Cameron Highlands so make sure you pack some warm clothes - jacket, hat and scarf are useful at night.

For your own peace of mind, and out of respect for other participants, we request that your telephone be kept switched off during classes. Please refrain from using perfume or strong smelling deodorants. We expect our course participants to be non-smokers - at least for the duration of the retreat.

Om Shanti

Yoga Now Malaysia - Langkawi Yoga Retreat

Friday, October 2, 2009



Stretch your body, stretch your mind
Relax your body, relax your mind


Come for yoga classes and yoga retreats in Langkawi.

We teach traditional Hatha Yoga - a combination of Asanas (postures) and Pranayama (breathing techniques) and relaxation, that has given benefit to millions of practitioners over thousands of years.
Our classes

We believe in teaching the basic essentials that have long since proved their usefulness to humanity. Whether on yoga retreats or in regular classes we teach small groups of between 5 and 12 people in order to assure that you receive the maximum of personal attention that just isn't possible in large groups.



Make the most of your stay in Langkawi and join us for either morning or afternoon yoga classes. A two hour class will leave you feeling relaxed, refreshed and energized.
Yoga is about residing in the present, living each moment to the fullest and getting more out of life NOW. The concentration and awareness that yoga exercises require, helps to train our minds to bring more awareness into our daily lives.

You may be new to Yoga, but Yoga is nothing new. Yoga's increasing popularity today shows that it is still relevant, bringing ancient wisdom to enrich our modern lives. There are many people teaching many so called different styles of Yoga nowadays - it seems that we are always craving for something new, looking for something different. We didn't invent yoga and we don't seek to modernise or re-invent it. Yoga has stood the test of time - if it's not broken then why fix it?. If Yoga had a flavour, ours would be good old fashioned plain vanilla.
