Your Yoga Paradise
in South Goa
Palm Trees Yoga Resort is tucked away in Patnem Village, a quiet corner of South Goa, where the pace of life is genuinely slow, the beach is just an eight-minute walk away, and a peaceful river flows through the grounds.
It's a small, intimate yoga space where people come to reconnect with themselves. Our experienced teachers are here to support and guide you. With small groups by design, you'll always feel seen, supported, and free to move at your own pace.
Whether you come to become a certified yoga teacher, deepen your practice, or simply take a break from everyday life, this is a place where you can slow down and come back to yourself.

I had a beautiful two weeks at Palm Trees Yoga Resort Goa. If you are looking for relaxation and tranquillity, and want to practice yoga, I can recommend this beautiful quiet place, under palm trees. Living quite simply in small huts, delicious breakfast especially fresh. Thanks to the whole team, thank you Julia and George for letting me be a part of this beautiful place.

Our Resort
Palm Trees is divided into two distinct areas, each with its own atmosphere and experience.
The heritage side of the resort is where you'll find our original Keralan eco-cottages, nestled among palms and tropical plants with a river running alongside. Home to the Blue Shala, it's green, lush, and quiet.
The Yoga Space is the newer side of the resort with a cleaner, more modern feel. At its centre sits the Coconut Shala, an open-air space surrounded by gardens with stunning views up into the palm tree canopy.
Our Yoga Holidays & in Goa, India
A yoga holiday at Palm Trees is exactly what it sounds like. Two classes a day, fresh food, good company, and the Arabian Sea a short walk away. Practice as much or as little as you like. Spend your afternoons at the beach, explore South Goa on a scooter, or do absolutely nothing in a hammock under the palms.
You'll be surrounded by like-minded people who understand exactly why you needed this trip. And when the sun sets over the sea, you'll wonder why you waited so long.

Palm Trees offers a calm and supportive setting for yoga teachers and facilitators who want to bring their group to South Goa. Everything around your retreat is taken care of, so you can focus fully on your teaching and your people.
A Place to Slow Down
South Goa moves at a different pace. In Patnem, there are no all-night parties competing with your morning practice. Instead, you’ll find nature, local life, and a rhythm that makes it easy to slow down.
The beach is right around the corner, and everything you need is close by. Warm days and cooler evenings from October to May create the perfect setting to rest, practice, and recharge.
It’s also a place where real connections happen. Guests come from all over the world, often arriving alone but quickly feeling part of something. Friendships form easily, and many return season after season.
And beyond Palm Trees, Goa invites you to explore. Quiet beaches, waterfalls, temples, and nature are never far away. Whatever you’re looking for, it has a way of finding you here.
From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such warmth and genuine hospitality. The entire retreat has a peaceful, calming vibe, surrounded by nature—perfect for relaxing and disconnecting from the busy world.
A very special thanks to the manager, Vaishnav, who made our stay exceptional in every way. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and always went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable. His friendly nature and dedication really stood out and made us feel at home throughout our stay.
Everything about this place—the serene environment, the positive energy, and the thoughtful hospitality—was just perfect. It’s the kind of place you don’t want to leave.
We left feeling completely refreshed and grateful for such a beautiful experience. Highly recommend this retreat to anyone visiting Goa. And if you’re lucky, you’ll be taken care of by Vaishnav, who truly makes the experience even more special!
One of the standout aspects of the training was the anatomy component. It wasn’t just theoretical—we were guided in understanding the body in a practical, accessible way, and more importantly, how to apply that knowledge on the mat. The way the technical aspects of anatomy were broken down and then integrated into our teaching and practice made everything click. It gave me a much deeper confidence in both practicing and cueing safely and effectively.
The curriculum is thoughtfully designed and well-structured, blending philosophy, alignment, sequencing, and teaching methodology seamlessly. There’s a strong Ashtanga foundation, which beautifully informs the dynamic Vinyasa flow we developed throughout the course. This balance created a powerful, intelligent style of teaching that feels both grounded and creative.
Overall, this training exceeded my expectations. I’ve come away not only with the skills to teach, but with a deeper understanding of yoga as a whole. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.
