Pyramid Party Retreat Goa - India

2.2.26-10.2.26 - MAX 10 PARTICIPANTS

Pyramid Party Retreats are the most wholesome experience I've had in YEARS.

A beautiful culmination of ritual, dance, performance, ancient body practices, philosophy and self-exploration.

Yoga in its purest form - meaning the union of all things.

This retreat, this container is truly a place to feel free, to bring fear and shame into the light, to let go, come together and celebrate all the colors of who we are as individuals and as a community! A place to foster how we show up for one another and co-create brave-space to shine through courage, love and support.

An experience to be felt.

So grateful, so inspired, so in love. - Eirik Juel (2022)

A Personal Note from Mama Shiva

This retreat takes place in the most beautiful accommodation I’ve ever encountered. Nestled deep within a serene forest, it is surrounded by birdsong and nature, offering complete tranquility. Yet, it’s also perfectly located—just a 10-minute walk to the beach and some of the most amazing restaurants and fruit stores you could wish for.

The accommodation features a yoga shala, and its owner, Pooja (whose name means “prayer” in Hindi), is an incredibly warm and heartful woman. From the moment we met, I felt a deep connection, and together we decided to bring this retreat to life.

I can’t wait for you to experience this sanctuary, which feels like a true temple. Located in Canacona, Goa—a peaceful region known for its focus on family and relaxation rather than parties—it has become my favorite place in India.

I am so excited to co-create this retreat with you and share this magical space.

  • Most beautiful and transformative experience I’ve had this year. Item

    Alvin and Ben provided a safe space for us to connect, reflect and experience our emotions on a deep level.

  • Liberating and stimulating on many levels

    I have never been on a retreat before as the offerings simply didn’t resonate with me. This past weekend with Alvin and Ben however was liberating and stimulating on many levels - with their eclectic offering they managed to bring together a colorful crowd who shared many beautiful moments together. - Zarah

  • We arrived as strangers and left as one community.

    The four days held by Ben & Alvin were wonderful! I truly didn’t know what to expect. Yes they offered a unique mix of sound baths, kundalini yoga, gaga dance, a pyramid party. But it was so much more. The two of them held space for deep reflection and fun. A space of safety & healing. Thank you. - Nicola
