Yoga Retreats

Our award-winning yoga retreats are among the best, and most affordable in Australia. Designed to allow you to slow down, rest, recharge, and develop healthy habits to take home. You’ll come as you were, and leave as you should be.

We see it every day—people arrive feeling stressed, disconnected, or searching for something deeper. Through movement, mindfulness, and community, they leave with a renewed sense of balance, purpose, and joy. It’s not just about yoga; it’s about changing lives.

Abour Our Seasonal Yoga Retreats

As the seasons shift, so do our energies, rhythms, and needs. That’s why we’ve enhanced our 3-day, 5-day, and 7-day yoga retreats to align with nature’s cycles, offering you a deeply rejuvenating experience.

At Byron Yoga Centre, we believe that where you stay is an integral part of your wellness journey. Our accommodation options are simple and comfortable and cater to various preferences and budgets.

Whether you choose a twin room with a shared bathroom, or a private ensuite room with a verandah, you’ll find a harmonious space to recharge and rejuvenate after a day of yoga practice and self-discovery. You can find all of our Yoga Retreat accommodation options and inclusions here. 

We boast 3 acres of beautiful organic gardens, which supplies most of the food for our vegetarian menu. Our meals are meticulously crafted to be nutritionally balanced, cleansing, and nourishing.

Our commitment to SLOW means sourcing super-fresh produce from our own organic gardens whenever possible and opting for local, organic, and in-season ingredients. This ensures not only the exceptional taste of our meals but also provides toxin-free food with maximum freshness, delivering optimum nutrients to the body.

5 Reasons to take a Yoga Retreat at Byron Yoga Retreat Centre

1. To take your yoga beyond asana
   The foundation of the yoga retreats at Byron Yoga Centre is the yoga developed by founder John Ogilvie, Purna Yoga. Purna, meaning complete in Sanskrit, represents Byron Yoga Centre’s holistic approach to yoga – integrating the physical asana postures with meditation, pranayama and yoga philosophy.
2. You are looking for clarity
   Perhaps you have come to a crossroads in your life and need to make a decision, choose an option or potentially move on from a situation. Removing yourself from your everyday reality, taking some time out to quieten your mind through yoga and being in nature can allow you to access your intuition.
3. Digital detox
   How many times do you check your phone each day? How many times do you really need to check your phone each day? Is it a tendency, a fixation or an obsession? A yoga retreat is an opportunity to leave the computer at home, put the phone away or even leave it with reception, and weaken the dependency.
4. Eat healthier 
   Taking a retreat offers you a chance to enjoy and benefit from nourishing food that you don’t have to make for yourself. Much of the fresh produce at Byron Yoga Retreat Centre is grown in the onsite organic garden or sourced from local suppliers and the longer retreats include a cookery demonstration.
5. Kick start new habits 
   New habits can take take 3 months to become fully ingrained, but a retreat can give you the chance to create a solid foundation. Being away from your usual routines, triggers and cues can make giving up a bad habit, starting a new practice or making a change to your pattern of behaviour a whole lot easier.
