Benefits of the Retreat (Add keywords i.e: serenity, inner-peace, energy...)
Rejuvenate yourself with Ayurvedic Massages at a time of your choosing, these will be holistic full body massages with oils used, based on your dosha and physical need.
Recentre with our Shirodhara treatment - shiro meaning head and dhara meaning flow. An Ayurveda therapy involves continuously pouring warm, herbal oil over the forehead; also known as the Ajna Chakra. An area of highly concentrated nerves & containing the circulation of our vital life force, or prana. The flow of oil onto the forehead creates a vibration whilst the oil saturates the forehead and scalp, penetrating deep into the nervous system. The gentle pressure and soothing warmth of the oil will allow the body, mind, and nervous system to experience a deep state of rest that is comparable to deep meditation. Balancing the mind, stabilizing emotions and healing the body
Relax during your Indian Head Massage treatment. Massage techniques are based solely on therapeutic touch over the scalp, head, face and shoulders to induce deep relaxation. Aiming to restore balance by working with the three higher chakras. Vishuddha is our throat chakra; Ajna is our third eye; and Sahasrara is our crown chakra. Focusing on areas of the body that hold the most stress will melt your tension and leave a sense of total calm. Leaving you with a sense of light being.

(Ayurvedic Yoga Holiday in Goa is available for seven nights)
Ayurveda - “Ayus” means life, and “Veda” means knowledge in Sanskrit, the science of life. Ayurveda is one of the oldest medical systems in the world. During your consultancy, your “Dosha” will be determined by our Ayurvedic Doctor from Vata, Pitta and Kapha. You will be advised on the best nutrition, therapies, treatments, and lifestyle changes according to your dosha, as well as how to follow a personalised wellbeing path during your stay with us and beyond.
The Ayurveda method of healing and wellbeing is one of the world's oldest holistic systems, dating back more than 3,000 years ago, here in India. Incorporated in the Atharva Veda, the last of the four Vedas it is based on the idea of balance in our bodily system. Ayurveda works on the basis that every person is made of five basic elements found in the universe: space, air, fire, water, and earth.
If your mind, body, and spirit are in harmony with the universal energy, you will have good health. When something disrupts this balance, such as injury, emotions, age, seasonal change or even lifestyle, you will become unwell & full of disease. The five elements combined in the human body make three life forces “doshas”. We all have a unique combination of the doshas but one dosha is usually more prominent and throws off our balance. Ayurveda uses the knowledge of our doshas to bring harmony and wellness back to us by restoring our dosha balance during treatments, therapies and lifestyle changes.
Vata dosha (space and air)
Pitta dosha (fire and water)
Kapha dosha (water and earth)

Instructor/Team member 1 Description
Yoga Director at Nalanda Retreat
Namaste! I am Priyanka Parihar, hailing from the vibrant city of Kolkata, born into a traditional Brahmin family deeply rooted in Bengali culture and Hindu traditions.
Educational Background In pursuit of a different path, I chose to diverge from the conventional career trajectory, immersing myself in the transformative world of yoga. I completed my formal education in renowned schools and earned a master's degree in yoga and nutrition. This journey led me to explore the profound realms of yoga philosophy, history, techniques, and various styles.
Teaching Journey With a 300-hour TTC in Hatha Yoga and a subsequent 500-hour TTC in transformative Hatha Yoga, I delved into a dedicated practice to deepen my expertise. For over nine years, I've passionately shared my knowledge, teaching in studios and conducting private classes across Delhi and various parts of India.
Goa and Transformative Yoga My journey took a turn when I felt drawn to the vibrant yoga community in Goa. In 2021, I made the move, immersing myself in the coastal serenity of a beautiful seaside village. During this inspiring environment, I encountered diverse yoga teachers, healers, and therapists from around the world. This exposure enriched my perspective on modern yoga, prompting me to fuse traditional practices with contemporary insights.
Spiritual Integration Devotion to Krishna and a deep connection to Bhakti Yoga have been integral to my journey. This spiritual foundation harmonizes the physical and spiritual dimensions of yoga, shaping my unique transformative yoga style.
Life in Goa and Nalanda Retreat During my time in Goa, I not only honed my practice but also found my life partner, who owns a breathtaking seaside yoga retreat centre. Now, I live, learn, and teach at Nalanda Retreat, seamlessly blending traditional and modern yoga practices.
Current Role As the Yoga Director at Nalanda Retreat, I continue to evolve my practice and guide others on their yoga journeys. I am dedicated to creating a harmonious space where individuals can experience the transformative power of yoga in its purest form.
Join me on this holistic journey of self-discovery and well-being at Nalanda Retreat, where tradition meets modernity, and the essence of yoga unfolds in every practice.
Namaste!

AKHILESH BODHI
Instructor/Team member 2 Role
Yoga Tutor
Instructor/Team member 2 Description
Akhilesh Bodhi, a seasoned Hatha Yoga teacher hailing from India, is a beacon of authenticity in the realm of yoga instruction. As the founder of Mahamukti Yoga, he brings forth a wealth of experience as a Reiki master and spiritual mentor. With a profound grasp and decades-long immersion in yoga practice, Akhilesh has cultivated an inclusive teaching approach that seamlessly blends traditional methods with the contemporary styles of BKS Iyengar and K. Pattabhi Jois, catering to a global audience.
Drawing inspiration from the holistic traditions of Ashtanga Vinyasa, Hatha Yoga, and Raj Yoga, Akhilesh's method transcends geographical boundaries to offer a universally applicable technique. A true adherent of Swami Dayanand Saraswati, he delved into the philosophical depths of Vedanta at the Vedanta school and underwent yoga training at the Sivananda Ashram in Kerala and the Iyengar Institute in Pune. His tutelage includes esteemed teachers such as Geeta Iyengar, Prashant Iyengar, and Ramananda Patel from San Francisco, USA.
Akhilesh's journey began in a large joint family, where he played an integral role in the family business alongside his brother. Despite facing challenges and punishments for tardiness while managing the family restaurant, his passion led him to pursue higher studies at Lucknow University. However, a transformative period awaited him at the Chinmaya Tapovan Ashram in Dharmsala, Himachal Pradesh, where he immersed himself for two years, disconnecting from his family. Despite family attempts to retain him after his mother fell ill, Akhilesh's commitment to his spiritual path prevailed.
Following the ashram experience, he embarked on a pilgrimage to the Himalayan regions of Uttarkashi, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath, adopting a mendicant lifestyle and exploring the nuances of Mother Nature's care. His encounters with diverse situations and life's unfolding events during this pilgrimage shaped his perspective and solidified his commitment to a path less traveled. Despite the initial guilt stemming from his parents' passing, Akhilesh's life had embarked on an irreversible trajectory, leading him to become a seasoned and experienced yoga teacher with a focus on authenticity and inclusivity.

Yoga Maestro Unveiling the Tranquil Realms of Goa & Mumbai
Energetic Vibes Await You
Step into the invigorating world of yoga, curated by Iona Dudley-Ward, a dynamic Yoga Teacher weaving her magic amidst the enchanting landscapes of Goa and the bustling vibes of Mumbai. Known for my prowess in Ashtanga-Vinyasa Yoga, I bring a potent mix of strength, inclusivity, and an uplifting atmosphere to my classes, embracing practitioners of all levels.
Beyond the conventional, my yoga journey encompasses hosting unique "Pop-up Yoga & Live DJ" events, where I merge the power of yoga with the pulsating beats of uplifting music. These events have graced venues like "Soho House Mumbai," music hubs such as "Antisocial," and various bespoke well-being destinations, creating an immersive fusion of movement, music, and emotions.
Educational Odyssey in Movement
My love affair with movement commenced in my early 20s, pursuing a BA Honours Degree in Dance and Performing Arts at The University of Brighton. The revelation of the profound connection between breath and movement transpired during my studies. A pivotal moment occurred at 'Laban Dance School' in London, where I discovered Ashtanga yoga and was captivated by its seamless integration of flowing postures, meditative breath, and unbridled joy.
Practicing Ashtanga yoga and its dynamic variations since the age of 19, I witnessed its transformative impact on focus during my stint as a comedy actress in my twenties. Eventually, I transitioned from considering it a practice to embracing it as a holistic lifestyle. This journey led me to formalize my expertise as an Ashtanga Vinyasa (primary series) teacher in India in 2013, under the tutelage of the inspirational Yogi Kamal at the 'Tattva Yoga Shala' in Rishikesh.
Retreats: A Sojourn of Wellness
For the past eight years, I have orchestrated international retreats, initially in Sardinia, Italy, and subsequently in the tranquil realms of Goa, India, and the idyllic landscapes of Cyprus. On home ground, I've conducted Wellness Retreat Days in the vibrant city of Mumbai and the serene English Countryside. This year marks the fourth edition of my retreat at Nalanda in February, promising an immersive experience.
Guiding Light in Renowned Studios
My decade-long journey as an international teacher has unfolded between the harmonious shores of Goa and the vibrant heartbeat of Mumbai for the past five years. Originating from the U.K., I've cultivated a dedicated yoga following.
In the vibrant city of Mumbai, my teachings grace esteemed yoga schools and establishments, including "Soho House Mumbai," "The Moon Village," and the welcoming embrace of "Yoga House."
In the U.K., I've held the position of a resident teacher at prestigious locations like "The South Kensington Club," "Yoga Loft," "Third Space London," and "More Yoga" London.
Sardinia, Italy, has been a canvas for my yoga training, offering my expertise as a personal yoga trainer at luxurious havens like "The Caledvolpe," "The Cervo" (Porto Cervo), and "The Romanzino" in the captivating Costa Smeralda.
In the scenic landscapes of Goa, I extend my teachings to "Ashiyana Yoga Center," "Nalanda" - Yoga & wellness retreat centres, "Riva Beach Resort" for AKA MMA Association, the rejuvenating "Mojigao eco wellness resort," and the harmonious enclave of Palmorama.Goa.
