Gambhira Eco Yoga Village

Mission: Gambhira EcoyogaVillage is part of a large international chain of ecological villages that exist in more than 25 countries, which remain constantly setting in order to create an ideal space in connection with nature, so we can deepen practices such as Yoga and Meditation, discover the wealth of healthy eating and learn about sustainable alternatives connected with architecture, philosophy and other aspects of our daily lives.

From www.ic.org/directory/gambhira-eco-yoga-village/:

We are an eco-village (non profit organization) located 40 minutes from Santa Marta city.
The farm is settled in the foothills of Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta; the area is very natural, we are surrounded by fields, with beautifull views of sunrises and sunsets, the atmosphere here is relaxed and friendly.

Our Volunteer program is specially designed for those who want to experience an eco friendly way of life; you can take part in sustainable activities, such as organic farming, eco building, vegetarian cooking while at the same time experiencing the quietness and harmony afforded by yoga and meditation. Volunteers work for 4 to 5 hours a day in sustainable activities during the morning. In the afternoon they are free to take part in the Park´s activities (hatha yoga, meditation with tibetan bells, music theraphy with oriental instruments, pranayama programme, movies, etc.), or simply relax, read a book, or take a walk through the surrounding rural environment.

All the year around, volunteers from all over the world come to the Park to discover their skills, get in contact with mother earth, help us improve our local community, get to know new people, learn Spanish and enjoy nature and the experience of living in our community. Please note that we request our visitors and volunteers to abstain from intoxicants and extramarital relationships to preserve the sanctity of the project.

The Park is also a Yoga Ashram, every day you can take part in hatha yoga classes that enables you to harmonize mind, body and spirit, you are also invited to practice meditation with oriental instruments to help you connect with your inner self, and learn about the most ancient Indian teachings in our classes on Vedic philosophy.
