Five Days of Vipassana Silence with Mikhail
Silence is the structure here, not the side effect. This is a Vipassana meditation retreat: five days held in strict silence, with a rhythm built entirely around sitting practice. No evening meals, no small talk, no agenda beyond the work itself.
Days follow a clear pattern. Breakfast at 08:30, morning sessions, lunch at noon, afternoon sessions, a tea station open between. The yoga dome holds the group, small by design, up to eight people. Cushions and blankets are provided. The property maintains quiet during practice hours.
The Lotus tents face the mountains and the evening light. That is where you sleep, and where the silence continues. There is no campfire gathering here, no shared dinner at the Yurt restaurant. The retreat asks something different: to stay with what arises when the usual noise stops.
This format suits people who have some familiarity with meditation and want more than a gentle introduction. It also suits those who are simply ready to sit, seriously, for a few days, in a place that makes that easy.

Sample rhythm - the host shapes each day around the group
Your host, Mikhail
Mikhail organizes Vipassana meditation retreats and works closely with co-organizers to shape the logistics and the participant experience around the practice. His retreats are built for depth rather than variety. He keeps groups small so the silence has room to hold.
Hosted at Glamping Tago
Every event here happens at our own mountain venue above Village Tago: forest-edge tents, a yurt restaurant, a dedicated yoga shala and a wood-fired sauna.
