7 days of Yoga study, practice and fun devoted to sharing the benefits of yoga
as means to achieve a healthy balance and completely fulfill one's deepest
purpose.
A retreat for those inclined to move deeper in their understanding of yoga.
This retreat integrates a variety of deep physical yoga practices, meditations,
and mantras with the practical aspects of maintaining a balance in your daily
life. You will learn the key foundations to any yoga practice and how to apply
them on and off your yoga mat. Each morning will begin at 6am with a
meditation, chanting, pranayama and sun salutations followed by Asana practice.
There will be a talk on yoga and related topics in the late morning and
evenings and a second Asana & Pranayama class in the afternoon. In between
classes we can swim, play and relax. Evenings will include various
entertainments and exploring your creativity thru Vedic Art with gifted artist
and dance performer, Martina Jakobsson.
