Yoga, it seems, is here to stay. With a staggering 20.4 million Americans practicing, this rise in popularity carried over into vacationing — The Travel Channel reported an increase in yoga vacations in 2013. Whether it’s an intense, full-body practice you’re looking for or something a bit more relaxing, there are retreats appearing in cities all over the world for just about every niche.

 

Here are three of our top picks:

 

1. Purple Valley Yoga: Goa, India

In addition to the Ashtanga practice, they also offer massage, Ayurvedic therapies and spa treatments to create an internal and external rejuvenation.
