Our Story
Creating Spaces That Move You — Inward and Outward
In Tamil, “Uru” means creation — not just the end result, but the unfolding journey of becoming. At Uru.Connect, we design immersive experiences that honour that process — experiences that are equal parts introspection, insight, and transformation.
Uru.Connect was born in the aftermath of a world turned upside down. In the chaos that followed the pandemic, we — Madhu and Sowmya, mindfulness and yoga practitioners with over 40 years of combined corporate experience — saw a deeper truth emerge: the world of work and life was no longer what it used to be. People were questioning old definitions of success, rethinking their place in the world, and waking up to the importance of tending to every dimension of wellbeing — physical, emotional, financial, relational, and spiritual.
What We Do
At Uru.Connect, every experience we design is a journey inward and outward — to understand yourself, engage with the world, and reimagine your place within it, with softness and strength.
Whether you’re an individual navigating personal transitions or an organization seeking to foster a culture of growth and alignment, our retreats and programs are designed to meet you where you are. Through research-backed frameworks, immersive experiences, and active learning, we create the space to pause, reflect, and realign — enabling personal growth, stronger relationships, and purposeful, systemic action.
Build a Thriving Organisational Culture
We bring the spirit of Uru into organizations — blending decades of experience in learning design, facilitation, wellbeing, and leadership development to create experiential programs that spark real connection, clarity, and high performance.
From team-building immersions and leadership offsites to wellbeing workshops and culture-building retreats, our experiences help teams step out of day-to-day urgency and reflect on the inner and outer landscapes they operate in.
Your Sanctuary for Stillness, Self-Discovery & Strength
At Uru.Connect, we offer soulful, small-group retreats in beautiful, handpicked locations — perfect for those starting their solo journey or seeking meaningful connections in safe, curated settings.
You can also explore our virtual one-on-one and group sessions in yoga, meditation, pranayama, and transformational coaching, designed to support your personal wellbeing journey from the comfort of your homes.
Additionally, we host bespoke workshops and offline experiences rooted in play, healing, and mindfulness — creating space for deeper reflection, creativity, and joy.
We invite you to experience life through a different lens—with curiosity, courage, and connection.
Come create with us.
