The Weekend

Our weekend yoga retreat will begin on Friday evening at 5.30 pm with a gentle asana practice and the deep relaxation of yoga nidra, followed by dinner at 7:30 pm. After a nourishing smoothie on Saturday, we will practise from 08:00 – 10:00am  (asana, pranayama and meditation and themes to ). After lunch you will be free to explore the countryside, or just to chill out have a massage or even a swim! Our afternoon class will be from 5.00 to 7.00 pm, for a mellow and nectar soma flow. Saturday dinner will be at 7.30 pm. Sunday morning’s program will be the same as Saturday, and will again incorporate asana, pranayama and meditation. Brunch will follow with farewell. Also on offer are beautiful countryside walks, delicious wholesome organic food, fireside chats, new friends and the space to just be…

All classes have a heart-oriented life enhancing theme, interwoven throughout the class. Classes in the morning are more “sweaty’ ecstatic and energetic to help dissolve any sluggishness and inertia. The afternoon follows the energy of the day classes are more nurturing, nectar like to prepare for a good restful night.
