Holistic Wellness and Learning for a Balanced Life

The best wellness space in whole of Colombo, that also holds community led meditations, Breathwork, sound healing that are accessible. The kirtan sessions are so healing as well, and their workshops are one of a kind. Led by Ishaka and her team, the energy here feels so welcome and warm as you walk in. I cannot describe in words how thankful I am for Ishaka for doing what she does. I totally recommend if you’re looking for a space for wellness retreats , sound healing and Breathwork!

I came to Ish Tara for a mental health related workshop. The place offers different activities on different days, such as art workshops, meditative or relaxation workshops and other. The prices can be a little on the expensive side. This is a small space, almost like a re-purposed house, and parking can be an issue. The space used for the workshop is very relaxing and naturally ventilated with large windows that open in to a peaceful side garden area. It is spacious enough for a small crowd around 20 people to stay comfortably.

IshTara is truly a sanctuary for the mind, body, and soul. The moment you step in, you feel a sense of calm and positivity. The staff is incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, guiding you through a range of holistic practices that cater to your individual needs. The classes are thoughtfully designed and led by experienced instructors who create a supportive and nurturing environment. Whether you’re looking for relaxation, spiritual growth, or simply a break from the hustle and bustle, IshTara has something for everyone. IshTara is for anyone seeking balance and rejuvenation. It’s a hidden gem in the heart of Colombo that truly makes a difference in your well-being 💖

I can’t recommend Dr. Shawn Roche enough for sports massage! At 58, I just set the world hiking record for Sri Lanka’s Pekoe Trail, and there’s no doubt that Shawn's expertise played a huge role in making that possible. As someone who adventures hard, I need a therapist who can help keep my body in peak condition and work out the inevitable kinks. Shawn is incredibly skilled and intuitive, understanding exactly what my body needs to recover and stay active. His sports massage therapy not only helped me bounce back after intense hiking and training sessions but also prepared me to tackle each new challenge. If you’re looking for someone who can help you stay active and do what you love at any age, look no further. Thanks to Dr. Shawn, I’m feeling stronger and more ready than ever for my next adventure!

IshTara is an oasis of peace in a bustling Colombo! The staff are extremely welcoming and inclusive and truly care a lot about creating safe spaces. It’s so refreshing to see their growing offerings, from yoga, sound healing, massage to art therapy. Excited to continue to follow their journey as they continue to grow
