Tripura Centro de Yoga was established to provide a way to harmonize everyday life in a more yoga orientated environment. It offers an opportunity to restore your energy and vitality through the practice of yoga, meditation, relaxation and a change in lifestyle. It is aimed at people who want to experience the benefits of yoga to uplift their way of life by developing a more open mind, heart and understanding of life‘s practical application of selfless service to help others help themselves.

Practices are based on the Satyananda Yoga which incorporates hatha yoga (postures), prananyama (breath control), satkarmas (purification techniques), yoga nidra (deep seated tension release through relaxation), and meditation practices (focusing of the mind to clarify thinking patterns). These practices are utilized to provide a basis for improving your awareness of everyday activities to uplift your wellbeing on a physical, mental and spiritual level. This adds energy and vitality to the activities of your head, heart and hands.

Satyananda Yoga

Satyananda Yoga was developed by Paramahansa Satyananda based on his experience of the ancient tradition of yoga with his teacher Paramahansa Sivananda of Rishikesh. Paramahansa Satyananda established the International Yoga Fellowship and the Bihar School of Yoga which have taught thousands of yoga students in India and around the world. Satyananda Yoga is now overseen by Paramahansa Niranjananda who has a global understanding of the application of yoga in western and eastern cultures. More information on Satyananda Yoga can be obtained through the website www.yogavision.net.

The Hosts

Tripura was developed after many years of planning by Montserrat Pou Sanmarti (Satmarga) and husband Graeme Tyrrell (Tarananda).

Satmarga and Tarananda are members of the Satyananda Yoga Association of Mallorca. Tarananda has been involved in yoga for over 30 years. Satmarga has been involved with the Satyananda Yoga movement in Mallorca for more than 15 years. They have traveled numerous times to India to further enrich their understanding of yoga.

C’an Pere Frare - Home of Tripura

Tripura is located in a 250 year old stone finca or manor house in the rural centre of the Mediterranean island of Mallorca. The house, purchased 5 years ago, is gradually being restored to retain its historic character but with the purpose of being a yoga lifestyle centre.

The finca has a yoga rooms, two entry rooms, a small private courtyard, and two upstairs patios with views to the Tramuntana Mountains, six bedrooms, and large front terrace. There is a lawn, garden, organic vegetable garden and an open field of one hectare dotted with almond trees adjacent to the finca.

The organic farm shop Son Barrina is one hundred meters down the road and the rural train station Llubi is 10-15 minutes walk away along a rural laneway.

The village of Llubi is 3 kms away and the town of Inca 6 kms.

The mountains are from 15-20 minutes away by car for forest walks and the beaches are about the same. Palma and the airport are about 30-40 minutes away by car on motorways and public transport is available with connection by train from Llubi station.
