Mission: 

Menla Retreat and Dewa Spa is a branch of Tibet House US, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to preserving Tibetan culture for Tibetans and sharing its beneficial arts and sciences with western audiences. Founded in NYC in 1987 by H.H. the XIV Dalai Lama, Bob and Nena Thurman, Richard Gere, and Philip Glass, Tibet House US offers programs on Tibetan Buddhism, meditation, and yoga and houses a unique collection of Tibetan art.

Tibet House US was gifted Menla’s exquisite 330-acre hidden valley in the Catskill Nature Preserve to provide a tranquil space for group retreats, wellness programs, and personal getaways. Drawing on Tibetan healing arts, Menla offers its own programs in Buddhist teachings and integrative healing practices to promote well-being as part of its mission. It also hosts many retreats sponsored by outside organizations.
