We will take some time to be with fire in a sacred way. This is a fire of love, compassion, purification, joy, and gratitude for life. Let this ceremony enchant you and inspire for your next chapter.

Meet the teachers:
Anandan Dhandapani
Founder of Samudra Yoga School
Spiritual Mentor
Meditation & Yoga Teacher
(The Retreat Guide)
Everything that Anandan teaches whether it is about yoga practice, spirituality, or energy healing is coming from the depth of his heart and years of dedicated self-work and personal practice.
He praises Yoga as a powerful method of self-realization and applies traditional Sivananda style hatha principles in his classes following the core knowledge about asana and pranayama. Guided Meditations that Anandan is teaching are very intuitive and based on ancient methods: he creates unique meditation practices that offer energy healing and support the student on his path towards spiritual awakening. Tantric Philosophy is a core aspect of his powerful spiritual teachings, but he welcomes wisdom from all different sources.
Anandan passion is to bring people closer to the realization of their divinity and internal abundance - in an all inclusive embodied form that he, so brightly, emanates.
