Retreats & Workshops
Taking a day or longer to explore the depths of a particular aspect of yoga is incredibly inspiring and rewarding. People who have come along to retreats and workshops with Atma have said they have found inspiration that has lasted a lifetime and on retreats found them life-changing deeply healing.
Alchemy of Hatha Yoga
Saturday 15th November, 2025
Held at Happy Ohm Studio in Norwich.
Rarely taught or understood, Hatha Yoga was originally practiced as a form of internal alchemy. The work of breath holds, energetic locks, and visualisation with intention create a very strong effect to release nervous and psychological tension and rejuvenate the body.
Part of the Advanced Teacher Training Course this workshop works just as well as a stand alone.
So if you'd like to explore Pranayama, Mudra and Bandha and the longevity benefits.

Applying the Yoga Sutras
Sunday January 18th, 2026 &
Sunday 15th February, 2026.
Held at the Yoga Tree in Norwich.
While on a Yoga Teacher Training course you may have been introduced to the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and especially the 'yamas & niyamas' and ' 8 limbs of Yoga', these two, one day workshop will not only expand and deepen your understanding but show you how to apply the ideas in your life or yoga classes.
Having studied and applied the yoga sutras for over 30 years Atma is a useful guide to open up and make comprehensible this beautiful text.
The day includes posture, meditation, sequencing, guiding and adjusting posture.
It is part of the Advanced Teacher Training Course but works well for non-yoga teachers or those not on the course.
£216 for both days, or £108 for one.
Pranayama & Pratyahara
13-15 March, 2026
Held at the spectacularly beautiful Mandala Yoga Ashram in South Wales. This long weekend retreat will give you a understanding and experience of Pranayama and Pratyahara in a way you are unlikely to have experienced before.
At one time these two arts were the very centre of yoga practice. To be able to control prana, for health, healing, longevity, and even out of body experience was the foundation of yoga practice. To control the senses (Pratyahara) was so synonymous with yoga that in the Upanisads yoga was defined as restraining the senses.
Drawing from tantra and the Dattatreya Yoga shastra this weekend retreat will initiate or remind you of the life in every breath, and to improve the relationship with life through the breath and senses.
