Packing List
Pack for the rhythm of the days, not for every possibility. Choose your retreat, the climate and the length, and we suggest the rest.
About this tool
Do I need my own yoga mat on a retreat?
Most yoga retreats provide mats. Bring your own if you prefer a particular grip or thickness, or a light travel mat if you want to practise on the way.
What should I not bring to a retreat?
Too many clothes, strong perfumes for shared spaces, and work. Most people use far fewer outfits than they pack, and many retreats ask for quiet, scent-free practice rooms.
