BHAKTI KUTIR

WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS

A tranquil retreat centre set on the Arabian Sea, where you arrive at the calm of sand, palms and authentic Goan spirit — the perfect backdrop for your Yogart Collective experience.

Why we chose Bhakti Kutir for Yogart Collective

At Yogart Collective, we believe that location shapes transformation. That is why our Yoga & Ayurveda retreats and teacher-training modules are held at Bhakti Kutir:

Located on the serene southern coast of Goa, the property offers beachfront access, gentle waves and open sky, providing a natural atmosphere for deep practice and inner reflection.

Bhakti Kutir combines authentic Goan architecture (white-washed cottages, palm-thatch roofs) with comfortable amenities, enabling you to step away from everyday life and into an immersive wellness environment.

The team at Bhakti Kutir is experienced hosts for international wellness groups—they understand the rhythms of yoga, Ayurveda, restful stays, and group process, making it an ideal partner for our small-group format.

With a maximum of 12 participants (consistent with our Yogart Collective small-group ethos), you’ll enjoy spacious grounds, a dedicated yoga shala, Ayurvedic treatment rooms and quiet corners for journalling or contemplation.

Location & Setting

Where: South Goa, India — tucked away from the busy north-Goa party scene. Bhakti Kutir is set on a quiet beach, yet accessible from the main hubs via Goa’s road network.

What you’ll feel: A gentle sea breeze at dawn, wild palm trees framing your asana session, seaside walks after practice and the soft sound of waves as you rest.

When to go: Our scheduled retreats and Teacher Training from January to April align with South Goa’s dry season — perfect for sunrise practice, Ayurveda therapies in the open air, and gentle exploration of the region.

Accommodation & Facilities

At Bhakti Kutir, you’ll find:

Boutique-style seaside cottages and villas, thoughtfully designed for comfort and simplicity.
A spacious yoga shala with wooden floors and sea views, ideal for asana, pranayama, and meditation sessions.
Dedicated Ayurveda treatment rooms, offering therapeutic sessions in consultation with Dr. Vijay (our resident Ayurvedic doctor).
On-site dining: wholesome meals prepared with local produce, vegetarian/vegan options, and an emphasis on nourishment that supports your yoga & Ayurveda journey.
Outdoor spaces: beach loungers, shaded verandas, hammock corners, and quiet pathways for reflection.
Small-group capacity: we host only up to 12 guests in our retreats here, ensuring personalized attention, integrated community, and profound alignment.

“Staying at Bhakti Kutir in South Goa felt like stepping into a different planet. The gentle waves, the bird calls, the stillness before dawn – it all supported our yoga practice in ways I didn’t expect.”

How to Get There

Fly into Goa International Airport (Dabolim) — approximately 45–60 minutes’ drive to Bhakti Kutir.
We’ll provide a group transfer from the airport (as part of your retreat package) — you don’t need to worry about arranging separate transport.
If you choose to extend your stay before or after the official programme, we can assist with local stay-overs at Bhakti Kutir or nearby partner accommodation.

Why This Matters for Yogart Collective

At Yogart Collective, we are committed to small-group, high-touch, transformational experiences. Hosting our retreat at Bhakti Kutir allows us to:

Maintain intimacy (maximum 12 participants) so each person genuinely feels known, supported and seen.
Merge yoga therapy and Ayurveda into one seamless daily flow, without the distraction of large resort crowds.
Create a “container” in which participants can disconnect from the usual (mobile notifications, commute noise, busy tourist hubs) and reconnect to what matters: breath, body, community, nature, inner guidance.
Ground our program in place: the sea, the palms, the Goan rhythm become part of the healing architecture of the retreat.

What to Expect During Your Stay

Your stay at Bhakti Kutir with Yogart Collective includes:

Daily yoga therapy sessions aligned with your personal needs and the retreat’s intention (trauma-sensitive, therapeutic, or teacher-training).
Ayurvedic consultation and treatments with Dr. Vijay — ideally scheduled in the afternoons for restoration.
Access to the beach for practice, meditation or simply quiet walking.
Optional excursions (for example: day trip to Gokarna) integrated into your programme for light exploration without disrupting your rhythm.
A nourishing daily routine: morning practice, breakfast, mid-day rest or treatment, late-afternoon session, dinner and optional circle/workshop time in the evening.
Free time built into each day so you can rest, journal, chat with fellow participants or simply absorb the Goan air.
