"Erster Aufenthalt in einem Yoga-Retreat"
Ich mochte das Gleichgewicht zwischen Yoga, Meditation und Freizeit. Es gibt einen relativ engen „Stundenplan“ aber schon am ersten Tag verfällt man in einen natürlich Rhythmus. Leider bleibt einem nicht besonders viel Zeit für Ausflüge in der Umgebung außer am Wochenende.

"Soul retreat"
I did the 6 days retreat but it wasn’t enough for how much I loved it.Everything is well thought and organized and I’m sure they are always improving that piece of Eden.The place is really beautiful with the nature who welcomes you, hummocks here and there, prana lounge so so nice with sea view and the food always tasty and different meals everyday.A general warmly atmosphere because they really care about what they are doing.The yoga classes were not too easy not too hard, but if you want to practice more there is the yoga hall all for you in your free time.Dancing, meditations, games, conversations to make each of us feel part of a big thing called life.Then if you need to go deeper in your body, mind and soul healing (which is normal when you dedicate all this time to yourself) they offer a lot of sessions and therapies.
Thank you to all Vagabond Temple Team.

"Incredible 6 weeks experience as a guest ♥️"
I just loved everything. I loved the alll classes, loved the Dharma talks, loved morning circles, loved meditation, loved my room, loved the food, loved the staff. everyday focusing on a different part of your body in yoga-no days were the same in my 6 wks. Treatments available go above&beyond any imagination.
Myann is incredible Who REALLY knows what she is doing. There’s a great balance with your spare time for solitude or socialising. If you want to be alone in silence there are areas which everyone respects With no judgment. Scooter’s are easy to rent if you wanted to take yourself off in spare time at wknds. I knew I loved it So I extended my 5 week booking on week 3 to 6 weeks.
6 weeks for me was perfect! Leaving feeling happy and ready, fit and healthy. And strong .. inside and out! I felt at home and part of the family there, Hours after arriving you get a really happy homely feel. Real Smiles everywhere you look. Real people who are really interested And are there to help you grow. It’s a community. Noday were the same every week working on a new Dharma topic~
Iv Learnt so so much with incredible knowledge from Kobi & Pazit. I feel they have this whole experience down to a fine art.. if your thinking of ‘test booking ’ 1week- book atleast 2 week (EVERYONE EXTENDS-you will extend if you can ☺️) if you have the time book 4-6 weeks! Trust me you won’t regret it ♥️ I will be taking these last 6 weeks with me for life.. forever grateful thank you Vagabond Temple 🙏🏽 Xx

Pazit, Melissa and Kobi were truly amazing. They have so much knowledge and passion. I could learn so much while I was here.
The place is simple but so perfect to relax and just have time for yourself.

Meeting so many new people from all over and getting to know their stories is the bestAll the lessons (Claire, Donna, Mary Sarah and of course Coby and Pazi). Excellent to be able to experience different types of yoga within little time. The morning circle and Dharma talks and the movie night was fun too.

"Wow! What an experience!"
This is a truly magical place. It’s not down to one or two things, it’s everything that Vagabond encompasses.
The grounds are beautiful, of course, but it’s the people mainly and the culture that serves everyone.
Kobi & Pazit, Maayan, the teachers and volunteers enabled me, for the first time in my life to feel unjudged, to be free, to be silly, to dance like nobody is watching, to sing like nobody can hear. I became who I always was but have never acknowledged before.
The food also is outstanding! I’m vegan anyway so when I realised that it was fully vegan there I was so excited. The sheer joy of having 3 delicious, nutritious meals served to me every day was incredible!
This was my first, but not my last visit.
Each yoga lesson, meditation, movement class, morning circle and Dharma talk was so very precious.
Thank you Vagabond team, for everything!

"A good place to heal"
Excellent vegan food, some good yoga instructors, Mary Sarah and Amanda in particular I found outstanding , incredible nature and climate, a varied curriculum of classes with an emphasis on play, dance and opening up. There is without a doubt a magic to this place. I felt a lot of change take place in myself in the week that I spent there and observed a lot of changes in those around me

Excellent insightful instructors. Everyone was friendly and helpful. I had 2 massages over the 2 weeks that were just amazing. What I learned was timely and much needed.
It was easy to go for walks to explore Kep and Kampot was a scooter ride away.

Je kunt ook naar de kust lopen maar ik vond Kep niet de moeite waard.

"An amazing first retreat"
From the minute you walk into Vagabond you’re welcomed by everyone you come into contact with. All of the teachers are invested in getting to know everyone when they arrive and remembering/ modifying positions when injuries prevent certain asanas.
The food is incredible! After a few days I was missing sugar but had relatively no other cravings when switching to full vegan because 90% of the time you would think there was some sort of animal products to give the dish the creaminess- a week later and I’m still dreaming of the eggplant curry 💔
The accommodation is pretty basic but very homey. Everyone has their own fan and mosquito net and the option for a hot shower is there if you want it.
The classes are well structured and spaced out so you can do your own activities in between in town. The yoga classes are well suited for all abilities and you have the option to push your self or slow down for a breather if needed. I loved that every week had a different focus and throughout the week you gained the strength and openness to try something fun like inversions, arm balances, backbends, etc. Also you did a handful of different types of yoga each week; yin, kundalini, flow, etc.
Lastly, I walked into this retreat not knowing how to meditate and no grasp on the spirituality that yoga stems from. Kobi is very knowledgeable in tackling meditation in a way that all all levels can learn and try on their own.
I had an amazing month at Vagabond temple

Das Programm, der Spirit und die Community waren unschlagbar. Das Essen fein, gut bis sehr gut, oft etwas salzig (was aber angesichts der Hitze auch gut ist). Aber absolut kein Service bei dein einfachen dafür relativ teuren Einzelbungalows ist enttäuschend.

"7 day yoga retreat at Vagabond Temple "
I liked the sense of community everyone seamed to share. The general atmosphere was open and light hearted. I really enjoyed staying in the tree house and had a great bunch of roommates. Also I had an amazing group meditation experience, had my first craniosacral massage, and thoroughly enjoyed the daily dharma talks.

"Amaizing New Year at Vagabond"
Is was a truly magical experience, meeting all the positive and interesting people, going through all the course together, physical and spiritual exercises... program organised in a very interesting way as well as doing all the activities you have some time to rest and relax...was the best decision for me to spend this new year in such a unique way, I will try to come back!

I loved meeting people from all over the world. I enjoyed the meditation and learning different forms of yoga that I had never tried. I enjoyed the energy and positive vibes that were released from the leaders and participants. I liked the routines and singing the mantras. It was a totally relaxing experience. The music was amazing and the dancing sessions were awesome. I enjoyed eating the vegan food, even though I adore meat, and not drinking alcohol was not as difficult as I thought! My body felt great and I lost a few kg. I've started drinking ginger and lemongrass tea because of the retreat. I've picked up some great recipes and good habits.

"Gratitude for Vagabond "
I loved the support that I received from my teachers and healers at Vagabond. The community that they have built has a way of helping you to release and recognize patterns that need to be healed. I felt so supported in such a warm and welcoming way. Everything and everyone was so gentle. The classes were incredibly informative and the teachers were incredibly knowledgeable about what they were teaching. The subjects and classes that were taught, were taught in such a way that it made it fun and easy to learn. With Pazit’s background in theater she helped everyone recognize that they don’t have to be serious all of the time which was great for building confidence. Her strength and dedication to helping people grow is something to be admired. Kobi has a gentle kindness that helps everyone to feel seen and accepted for who they truly are. They make the perfect duo! The main healer at vagabond carries such a presence of love that will help anyone to feel safe enough to let go and heal what needs to be healed. I highly recommend going beyond just the program into the healing sessions with Pazit, Kobi, or Mayan. They will help you in so many ways to unlock little parts of you, you didn’t know you had. Vagabond will change you in the most beautiful and unsuspecting ways!

"A beautiful place to focus on you. "
A home away from home, a safe place for everyone. I can honestly say that Vagabond temple has helped me to feel as if I am finally able to shape the life that I want to have. I was a wondering traveller in desperate need of somewhere to help me work out what I was doing and why and the temple did so much more than that for me. I now have the skills I need to be able to bring me back when things start to get hard and focus on what is important at that moment in time. I came to the temple with the intention of staying for a week, keeping an open mind and to take on everything I could within that week; the week very quickly became just under a month and I am so happy that I chose to stay for that long.
Coming here whether it be for a week, month, two months you are entering into a safe, secure, happy, magical place where not only will your physical body be pushed but so will your mind. This is what kept me there, constantly learning new things from everyone!
That was the experience- now they have moved to Kep so speaking about the accommodation won't matter greatly but it was really lovely, the house we lived in very easily became a home. The only thing in the retreat I would say could have been improved (for those that stay a bit longer) was the food. Initially it was very nice but after being there for a while you notice it is quite over cooked and with it being a vegan diet, over cooking the vegetables will take all of the nutrients from it which in the long run is not healthy. On the plus side the vagaballs are very scrummy!!
Overall, my experience at Vagabond temple was beautiful, I have made long lasting friendships from all over the world, continue to do my self practice (which I have never done before) and am feeling so much clearer in my mind. Thank you so much for creating a space where our weirdness is accepted and encouraged. It has brightened my life in more ways than one. So much love in my heart.
