YOGA, PILATES & RETREATS
AHANGAMA, SOUTHERN SRI LANKA
Move. Breathe. Stay as long as you need.
Wellbeing at Casa Tikiri isn't a programme. It's a posture and it extends beyond the mat.
A rooftop open to the sky. Retreats that move you forward. The kind of quiet that makes everything else clearer. Whether you're here for a single class or a full week of creative work, you'll find what you didn't know you were looking for.

THE ROOFTOP
An open-air shala above the rice fields.
You don't expect a yoga shala above the rice fields of Ahangama. Until you're on one.
At the top of the Paddy Lodge: an open-air space designed for practice, with views that make stillness feel effortless. Vinyasa, Slow Flow, Yin, Mat Pilates. Sound Healing with crystal and Tibetan bowls. Breathwork. And the occasional workshop. Different ways of arriving in the same beautiful place.
Open to all: hotel guests and visitors from Ahangama alike.

THE RETREATS
The backdrop for your best week.
The best time away isn't a break from your life. It's a shift in it. And it needs the right setting.
Casa Tikiri is a venue for retreat leaders who want to bring their community somewhere special. You bring your vision, your content, your people. We provide the space, the setting, and everything else — so you can focus on what you do best.
Yoga, creative writing, personal branding, social media, movement, storytelling: we've welcomed them all. Up to 22 guests, two properties, one rooftop shala, from May through November.
We work with facilitators who share our values: intentional, never overproduced, always deeply human.
