Spa/Wellness: Pulse: Taj Spa Yoga Retreats

Taj Spa Yoga Retreats

Yogis planning a trip to India should take note that starting in May, three Taj resorts will be introducing special four- or seven-night retreats focused on the art of ohm. The programs are structured around five daily yoga sessions: one exploring theory, another involving meditation, a third on relaxation techniques and a morning and evening class. Two levels (gentle and dynamic) are offered on a rotating weekly schedule, and group size is limited to fifteen. The participating properties—Jaipur’s legendary Rambagh Palace; the Taj Exotica, on India’s southwestern coast; and the Taj Green Cove on Kovalam beach—will be featuring the yoga retreats through September. Rates (per couple) begin at $1,500 for a four-night program at the Taj Green Cove, $1,600 at the Taj Exotica and $3,100 at the Rambagh Palace. 1-866-969-1825; www.tajhotels.com.
