RETREAT: an act of moving back or withdrawing

855960dc-0dff-47fc-8843-deb48453174f (2).JPG

Retreat time is very special and sacred- it should act as a container in which you can take a step back from the everyday grind and have space held for you to reconnect to your essence.

Often on retreat a group of people come together from different walks of life and for a multitude of different reasons, entering as strangers, leaving as friends, and all entrusting the teacher and one other with their precious time, energy and money. This trust and exchange is to be deeply honoured by the teacher who will lovingly create and curate yoga classes & workshops for you to experience your incredible wholeness through the ancient and evolving yogic tool kit.

I love to lead retreats- each one is unique and always full of amazing soul’s who support each other throughout the journey. Your retreat is to be time out of time- time for you to balance and reboot! 2 or 3 days can re-energise you and a week is an opportunity to dive deeper into your practice- beginner or experienced, all are welcome.

More writing on ‘why retreat’ here…

Thank you so much for all your hard work and effort you put into the weekend for us!
It was the most incredible setting.
It was an experience for me which challenged a lot about myself, my diet, my head and my heart. I learnt a lot which I hope I keep and don’t forget when you get so caught up in life.
It’s given me a whole new respect for yoga and I’ve seen a deeper level.

So Thank you!

-SANTORINI YOGA HOLIDAY-

Sold Out

Have you ever been to whitewashed, windy and wild Santorini ?! I visited last year and left a piece of my heart behind. Santorini has a huge magic energy from its volcanic history and is covered in hundred of tiny churches- its somehow simultaneously raw and glamorous!

This Retreat was reviewed and recommended in the Guardian - I’m stoked to be able to share it with you!

-RESIDENT TEACHER AT SOUL & SURF INDIA - March 2019-

One of my favourite Keralan hang outs and indian family home is with the soul and surf crew in Varkala. Lucious light mornings with slow flow start to the day in the roof top shala, followed by a little sunset sweat or steeping in some candle-lit yin with travellers from across the globe. My second time as resident teacher at Soul and Surf - hopefully not the last!

-SNOW YOGA HOLIDAY-

January 2018 with Adventure Yogi

A glorious week of bright white wipe outs and cute chalet merriment, muchos dancing, a strange incident with a shoe and a singing bowl all in the glorious french alps resort of St Foy. Small and picturesque town with plenty of space on the slopes, a few good restaurants and plenty of fromage. Thai massage offered by me on this retreat and twice daily yoga!
