"Their Yoga was the most incredible moving meditation of my life." - Reed, USA

"Life-changing" - Rod, Australia

With Kaivalya Yoga School & Hostel we aspire to provide a peaceful place for both, spiritual practice and cozy accomodation. The center is set in a lush jungly garden overlooking a wide panorama of Lago Atitlan and its three majestic volcanos. This huge crater lake is considered one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, situated in the picturesque Western Guatemalan highlands.

We are located at the edge of the quaint Mayan village of San Marcos La Laguna at an altitude of 1500m (4500 ft), which in conjuction with the tropical climate of Guatemala affords us temperatures of about 25ºC (77ºF) year-round.

Our 1-month Yoga Intensive Course, Heart Meditations and Retreats, Kirtans, and workshops are offered in our own yoga hall.
