Reviews
Beautiful setting for yoga Ever since my brother did his TT at Vikasa, I’ve been looking forward to experiencing their yoga offerings myself. Although we were staying in Bo Phut, we drove the 6 miles to attend a 2 hour 8AM class.
Yoga was what I expected it to be; a slower-paced vinyasa over-looking the beach. Honestly, not my favorite (I prefer a faster-paced, one breath / one movement kind of thing), but I realize that’s a very westernized way of practicing and I was happy to try something new.
My husband and I also had breakfast afterwards and the buffet was perfectly fine ... nothing extraordinary. However, I could completely understand how people could spend a week, month, etc. at this retreat, living this lifestyle. So glad I got to experience it myself finally.
