Join us for an Iyengar Yoga long weekend retreat near Sydney on the October long weekend October 2-5 2026. It’s rare for this lovely retreat centre in Wingello, near Bundanoon in the Southern Highlands, to be available for the long weekend so I’m excited to be able to offer it. It’s an easy 90 minute drive from Sydney. The first class will be on Friday at 6pm or earlier if everyone’s arrived. We’ll do asana and pranayama over the weekend. Accommodation is shared – mostly twin rooms – with some single person huts (khutis) available (accessing the facilities in the main building). The retreat will be fully catered with delicious healthy vegetarian food. Bring your own linen or sleeping bag and towels, and we’ll do a thorough clean up before we leave. Similar to the Queensland Retreat, you’ll need to bring your own yoga gear – your yoga mat, 4 blankets, 2 belts, 2 bricks. Having your own yoga equipment also enables you to keep doing your own yoga practice after the retreat. We’ll leave on Monday after the cleanup at 2pm. Cost: $1250. Places limited to 13 so get in early! Please pay $300 deposit to Linda Apps BSB 112 879 acc 031305712 to secure your spot, with remainder payable October 2. Please note: all participants are required to attend all sessions of the retreat.

Hi,
Can you please let me know what level yoga is needed for the retreat?
Hi Liz, this retreat isn’t suitable for people with no previous yoga experience. I’ve emailed you so let’s continue to chat there.
