This is a potent time to explore your creativity and heart of love, while celebrating life and all beauty and nourishment that nature is offering us.
Through Vedic Art, Kirtan and Yoga, we will be immersed in a field of self-expression and love.
In our Yoga classes, we find the grounding and rest needed to balance this time of fullness and high frequency. We’ll be journeying through gentle hatha yoga classes and restful sooting afternoons, with meditative yoga, Yoga Nidra and puja.
Kirtan (ecstatic singing) is a way to connect your heart with others, and then feel the divine presence together. We cleanse the dust we all gathered on top of our pure being and channel our emotions towards higher power and blissfulness.
This is an initiative to create a movement away from the polarising mind into the essence of our hearts and just sing from that sacred place.
Vedic art is a way to explore your inner world of visions, longings and emotions on a canvas. You don’t have to have any previous experience of painting. On the contrary, the less ideas about how to paint the better. You will be gently guided into expressing whatever wants to flow from your heart onto the canvas.

“The energy is so so clear, deeply heart centred. And the intent with which Shambala is held is so beautiful, it has become a massively important of my life”.
“This is where the magic happens – together, with open hearts in beautiful nature.”
“Shambala is this gorgeous space where strangers become family, the lake and forest your home, your breath is your theme song, your movement medicine, and vibrant food to nourish YOU for your journey with yourself.”
“Shambala is a way of life I have yet to find anywhere else in the world. The healing and growth I experienced there has been life changing. This is a place I have encouraged so many people I love to go. The beauty of the forest, the lake, the food and most of all in the connections made with the people there has left a mark on my soul I know will remain there forever. Whether Shambala finds you as a guest, a teacher or a member of the community living and working there, its magic is present and overflowing with possibility.”
“A little corner of Paradise! Shambala is a magnificent, peaceful, calm, spiritual place. The volunteers are always full of smiles and attention to you.
