7-Day Yoga & Mindfulness Retreat
Mui Ne, Vietnam
Stay tuned for 2026 dates
Join us in beautiful Mui Ne, a peaceful and quiet fishing village on the southeast coast of Vietnam, to cultivate inner-peace, love and joy. Deepen your yoga, Qi Gong, and mindfulness practice and learn tools to take into your daily life while immersing yourself in tropical paradise, eating local cuisine, and connecting to the heart and soul of Vietnam.
This retreat includes two daily yoga classes: energising morning practice and late afternoon calming restorative/yin practice, morning walking meditation and Qi Gong on the beach, sitting meditation, and lectures/talks on mindfulness, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and yoga to help you understand your personal practice.
“I am beyond grateful to Hang and Sarah for offering this retreat experience. I left home feeling exhausted and this offering proved to be the elixir that I needed to recover and restore myself. Every detail was thoughtfully considered – from the sumptuous vegetarian cuisine, to the daily schedule of events. All served to maximize healing, rejuvenation and inner peace. I loved beginning each day with Qi Gong on the beach and appreciated the focus on a restorative level of practice curated and offered throughout the week. The teachings provided each morning aligned beautifully with the focus of the day, threading themselves through the week and building a fabric of practice to take home with us. It was a seamless and spacious way to return to the beauty of Self. By the end, my husband (a newbie to yoga and Qi Gong) and I, both felt renewed and grateful. We felt nourished and cared for by the beautiful coastal setting, by the gorgeous grounds and villas of the Full Moon Village Resort, and by the incredibly friendly locals who cared for us and tended to our needs. I cannot recommend this experience more highly. We hope to return in 2026 and the next iteration of this retreat. Thank you Hang and Sarah!”

“The beautiful surroundings of the resort made a special container to hold our practice of Qi Gong, yoga, and meditation practices. I loved the quiet setting. I especially enjoyed the book ends of the morning beach practice, followed by the talks on theory which were always based in Hang‘s humour and wisdom, followed later in the day by Sarah‘s compassionate yin & restorative yoga. This was a wonderful opportunity to take time to take good care of myself while enjoying the company of like-minded yogis. The hospitality, food, pool, and accommodations at the resort were fantastic. ”

“This retreat is like medicine for the soul, I loved everything about it. Starting the day on the beach at sunrise, practicing Qi Gong and mindful walking, feeling the sand underfoot and between the toes followed by delicious fruit and coffee. Hang’s informative and insightful morning talks and yoga practice I found really helped me reconnect to mind and body. There was plenty of time to relax by the pool and explore before afternoons with Sarah practicing tin and restorative yoga, a perfect way to end the day. The food was fantastic, the accommodation was excellent with the most wonderful staff. The perfect week.”

“Truly the trip of a lifetime. The resort in Mui Ne was a piece of paradise where we could fully retreat into nature and silence, connecting with ourselves on a deeper level. The mixture of yoga, Qi Gong, meditation and philosophy that Sarah and Hang delivered gave us a toolkit of mindfulness that, one week later, is already having a hugely positive impact on our lives. Whilst our days at the retreat were dedicated to practicing the art of mindful living, we still had enough free time to explore Mui Ne and enjoy our holiday together. We returned home feeling fully refreshed and re-energised. We’re already looking forward to saigon om’s next retreat so that we can ‘breathe, smile and go slowly’ with Sarah and Hang again soon! Thank you both for everything.”
