Sail & Serenity Yoga Retreat (7–9 August 2025)

A first of its kind in Cambodia, the Sail & Serenity Yoga Retreat combines the invigorating freedom of the sea  with the grounding practices of yoga and meditation. Spanning four days and three nights, guests will begin  each morning with a yoga practice designed to build strength, balance, and mental focus; essential qualities  for navigating both the ocean and inner landscapes. 

Midday sessions include hands-on sailing instruction aboard small crafts, covering everything from rigging and  tacking to capsize recovery. Evenings are devoted to gentle recovery yoga and Tibetan bowl sound therapy to  release physical tension and enhance emotional clarity. 

All participants are guided toward earning a basic sailing certification, making this retreat not just restorative  but skill-building. With nourishing meals and quiet evenings under the stars, Sail & Serenity offers an inspiring  blend of movement, challenge, and deep rest. 

Autumn Alignment: Chakra Balancing Retreat (24–26 October 2025) 

Co-led by Lana Yang and veteran yoga therapist Aimee, this highly anticipated three-day retreat is designed  around the ancient yogic principle of chakra alignment, balancing the body’s energy centers through asana,  breathwork, and meditation. 

Autumn Alignment features a full spectrum of yogic tools: dynamic morning flows, deep yin and restorative  practices, guided philosophy discussions, evening chanting, and silent mornings for reflection. Meals are  vegan, light, and cleansing, specially crafted to support energetic clarity. Set just after the equinox, Autumn  Alignment is an ideal opportunity for those looking to reset their inner compass and prepare for the final stretch  of the year with intention and clarity. 

In addition to scheduled retreats, guests can reserve private, fully customizable wellness journeys throughout  the year. These ongoing programmes are ideal for solo travelers, couples, or small groups seeking meaningful  transformation on their own terms. 

Yoga & Spa Daycation: This one-day immersion combines a 90-minute morning yoga, breathwork,  and meditation session with a nourishing three-course vegetarian lunch, reflective journaling  grounded in yogic philosophy, and a choice between a restorative spa treatment or Tibetan sound  healing session. Perfect for weekenders, locals, and digital nomads looking for a mindful reset. 

Wabi Sabi Yoga Retreat – Embrace Your Truth: Offered in three- or five-day journeys, this  personalized retreat takes place surrounded by nature, enabling participants to embrace  imperfection, cultivate self-compassion, and reconnect with their own truths. The immersion blends  daily meditation, energizing yoga, themed journaling, and plant-based cuisine with optional  excursions such as forest hikes, traditional monk blessings, or kayaking. Evenings feature restorative  practices like chanting and Yoga Nidra to support deep rest and integration. 

All wellness offerings are led by certified practitioners, including Lana Yang, Kep West’s Wellness Manager.  Lana brings more than two decades of experience across yoga, sound healing, energy healing, somatic and  bodywork therapy. Her integrative philosophy underpins every element of the wellness experience.

“We design each retreat not just as a getaway, but as a gateway to healing, discovery, and connection,” said  Lana. “Our mission is to help people come home to themselves, while respecting the land and the people who  make this place so special.”
