Our Training Location
Byron Yoga Retreat Centre
Byron Yoga Retreat Centre, a tranquil eco haven on the outskirts of Byron Bay.
Accommodation is simple, with a variety of rooms, the focus is on the natural surroundings. An easy walking distance from Byron Bay town centre and the beautiful beaches, with a 20 meter heated mineral salt swimming pool, a relaxing dining area with indoor and outdoor seating and abundant organic gardens this is a paradise within paradise! With rainwater tanks, compost toilets, most of the hot water comes from a solar heating system and the mineral salt swimming pool is also heated by a solar system. Much of the menu is sourced from the organic garden and they work with local suppliers to ensure food is fresh, locally produced and organic where possible.
The centre is an eco community designed along the lines of an ashram rather than a holiday resort. It is a peaceful haven reflecting the surrounding nature. The town centre of Byron Bay and the beautiful beaches are just a short walk (25 minutes) away. You can choose to hire a cycle for your stay or utilise the local taxis. However, guests often experience a deep sense of calm on arrival and many don’t leave the eco haven until the end of their stay!
