6-Day Vinyasa Yoga in Kathmandu

Kathmandu · Thamel · 6 days

from $460
deposit $69 now

Overview

This retreat is built for travellers who want a steady daily practice while staying in the centre of Kathmandu. The studio is a short walk from Thamel's guesthouses, so it fits neatly before or after a trek.

Mornings are a flowing vinyasa class taught by the local teachers of the collective, with an evening session that alternates between slow flow and restorative practice. The style links breath to movement and suits anyone with a little practice, though beginners are welcome to modify.

You stay in a comfortable Thamel guesthouse within walking distance of the studio, with vegetarian meals provided. Between sessions you are minutes from Kathmandu Durbar Square, the markets, and the cafes of the old city.

From our visit (April 2026)
Sita: “The studio is up a stair above a bookshop, which keeps most of the Thamel noise out once class starts. I took an evening flow with two of the collective's teachers; the sequencing was thoughtful and the room was warm. Handy if you want to practise the days around a trek without leaving the city.

Reviews

Every review is from a completed stay booked through NepalRetreat. Operators can reply; they can't remove reviews. This retreat's first guests haven't returned yet, so there are no reviews to show.

Questions & answers

Can I do this before or after a trek?

Yes. The studio is in central Thamel, minutes from the guesthouses most trekkers use, so many guests book it around an Annapurna or Everest-region trek.

What level of yoga is expected?

The vinyasa classes are all-levels. If you are new to flowing yoga the teachers offer modifications, while stronger practitioners can take the fuller variations.

How does payment work?

You request dates for free. Once the studio confirms them, you pay a 15% deposit; the balance is paid directly to the operator on arrival. If they cannot confirm, nothing is charged.
