About Yogendra
Welcome to our Yoguic Oasis! Just 15 mins from the center of Cali, you’ll find pure nature with panoramic views to enjoy as you’re in a yoga class, lounging on a hammock, or taking a refreshing dip in the pool. Join us for a Yoga class, as a guest , volunteer or participate in our Retreat Style International Teacher Trainings!
Our Yoga style reflects the creativity and fluid movement of Vinyasa Yoga, the refined alignment and heart opening of Anusara Yoga, and the community building elements of Partner Yoga and Acro Yoga.
Our practice and lifestyle is embedded with the Bhakti Yoga Philosophy of love and devotion in all that we do! We see this practice as a way to purify and awaken our consciousness as well as inspire our daily lives.

If you’re arriving in bus from the South of Colombia or Ecuador, we live relatively close to the Bus Terminal in the north (15mins), you’ll pass through all of Cali to get here.
If you’re arriving by bus from Bogota, you’ll reach the Bus Terminal as you enter the city from the North. The trip to/from Bogota is approx. 10-12 hours.

Ashram Information

Respect the peaceful atmosphere of the Center by choosing positive actions, words, and attitudes.
All ashram participants agree to wake up by 6am Mon-Sat, and either join in the morning program of meditation and yoga or do a self practice.
This is a 100% alcohol, cigarette, and drug free space. We encourage and invite you to not drink, smoke, drink coffee or take drugs during your stay so you can get the most out of your time here.
This is a lacto-vegetarian kitchen and home. We ask that you consume No animal products (besides dairy), while on the premises. No meat or eggs on the property.

When you're participating in a program at the ashram you may decide leave the ashram in the afternoons or evenings. We recommend focusing on your yoga retreat and holding to a vegetarian, caffeine free and drug free lifestyle even outside of the Ashram.
If you have any personal problem, difficulty, or issue with anybody at the Center (volunteer, teacher or student) please talk to a staff member as soon as a problem arises.
