Is this retreat for students or teachers? The retreat is for everyone! New students, long time practitioners and teachers are all welcome. What if I have special dietary needs? We will conduct a participant survey to help address vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets. Any other special needs can be addressed. Are we required to stay at the host hotel? NO! This year we are offering a "Commuter Option" for up to 50 attendees, on a first-come, first-serve basis. This package will include all events, classes, and meals provided in the Hotel Guest Options. Stay with a local-Austin friend or at another hotel, but think twice. This venue is spectacular and worth the stay! I have a roommate, how do I designate with whom I want to share a room? If you have a roommate preference, all parties need to register under Double Occupancy or Triple Occupancy. After payment, registration will be completed through a post-payment survey which will give you the opportunity to list roommate preferences.. If you would like the Double Occupancy or Triple Occupancy rate and don't have a roommate preference, register for Double Occupancy or Triple Occupancy. Then email survey you receive after purchase will guide your response. Is the Advanced class included in the retreat registration fee? YES! I am a teacher, will there be an opportunity to get recertified? YES! Please pay for this additional retreat option when you register. Contact Bikram Headquarters. What airport do I fly into? The hotel is closest to Austin-Bergstrom Airport (AUS). Is there a shuttle from the airport? What other methods of transportation are available? Yes. The Resort shuttle costs $30 each way and can be arranged by calling the Resort in advance. Taxis cost about $55, so ride-sharing is encouraged. Rental cars are very convenient at Austin-Bergstrom airport (within walking distance of baggage claim - no airport rental car shuttle is needed). Rental car sharing is a great way to explore Austin, and Resort self-parking is free. |
