Shanti Vida

Amara Valley is the perfect setting for your yoga teacher training. Nestled in the heart of the Catalan countryside, Amara Valley is a sanctuary for learning, connection, and transformation. Surrounded by forests, rolling hills, and breathtaking mountain views, this peaceful retreat centre invites you to step away from the pace of everyday life and fully immerse yourself in your practice. Our training takes place in a spacious 120m² yoga shala, thoughtfully designed for movement, meditation, and embodied learning. Throughout your stay, you’ll also have access to beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, including a dedicated meditation room, a panoramic swimming pool, a traditional Finnish sauna, peaceful stone circles for ceremonies and reflection, and welcoming communal areas designed to nurture connection and community. Every space has been intentionally created to support deep practice, meaningful conversations, and moments of integration in nature.

At Amara Valley we now usually operate with a 2-meal brunch/dinner main meal schedule, with an afternoon snack (sweet or savoury) in between. We made this shift after finding physiological, energetic and logistical benefits over a traditional 3-meal schedule, and we personally recommend it. The longer overnight fasting period allows for better digestion, and can improve retreat program flow, supporting more in-depth morning practices, and more time in the evening for sessions after dinner without so much impact on sleep time and quality.

Book your flight to Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN). We help you organize a shuttle bus that picks you in the city center of Barcelona (close to our yoga studio Shanti Vida) and brings you back from the Masia to the city center. The price for the transportation is between 30-45€, depending on the number of people sharing the bus. Estimated travel time is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.
