YOGA
at Basunti is special. The setting is perfect for
beautiful and peaceful sessions with several places for practice
according to the season, the time of day, weather and the inclination
of your group. The circular shaded yoga shala is surrounded by
a deep moat with the calming sound of rippling water disturbed only
by the occasional playful splash of a jumping fish.

The Yoga Shala's Balinese-dome ceiling design and its lakeside proximity mean that even in the hottest parts of the day the centre remains wonderfully cool. Its subtle lighting means the shala can be used both day and night. The shala, some 10 metres in diameter can hold classes of up to 20 students. Classes are also held on the large terraced roof of the main house with its 360° panoramic view of the lake and can accommodate classes of up to 20. There is also a smaller mezzanine roof for classes of 8-10 students. Massage facilities are also available. The first inaugural week's retreat at Basunti was conducted by leading yoga teacher Sandra Sabatini, who describes it as "a very special place". Sandra, who was a student for many years of Vanda Scaravelli (author of Awakening The Spine), has subsequently conducted an autumn retreat at Basunti each year. She will be leading a one-week retreat at Basunti in 2008 - from October 4th to October 11th.
