Start your day with yoga, enjoy a delicious brunch after it, then you are in the right energy for the rest of the day! On some afternoons, we will go hiking along the beach or inland through protected pine forests. On other afternoons, we will do a recuperative yoga practice (Yin yoga or yoga with a focus on healing sounds, organs, glands, and chakras). In these sessions, we will also refine our breath and discuss interesting issues from yoga psychology and philosophy.
Every day, there will be enough time to experience local scenery and its beauty with all senses and fill up your body with new energy. The mild Mediterranean climate energizes body, mind, and soul all year round. Get to know a different Spain, away from mass tourism!
This retreat offers two places to accommodate participants, there are rooms in the Villa Isabel, which is a former residence and studio of the famous Catalan painter Josep Sala Llorens. Villa Isabel sits on a 2200 square meters park-like garden with a swimming pool, open barbecue, a kitchen area, and a spacious outdoor zone, where you may relax in the shade of the olive trees. The beach is within walking distance!
The other is a family-run accommodation called Hotel Yola, it is located near to the beach. You may choose between single and double rooms as well as shared or private bathroom.
You will start your days with sensibly designed Yoga classes for all levels by Isabella Welsch or Sonja Rogge. They teach Atha Yoga, a modern blend of different styles, including Hatha and Flow yoga.
During this week you will practice an intermediate level. Many poses allow you to choose between easier or more difficult versions. Yogic meditations will also be part of the daily sessions.
The morning yoga sessions are followed by a delicious brunch and time off. In the afternoons we have a recuperative yoga-class or we set out for an excursion, either inland or along the coast. You will have one afternoon off, where you can simply relax or visit one of the towns nearby. By train, you can reach Tarragona in eight minutes, Reus in 30 minutes, and Barcelona in 60 minutes.
Five times a week, dinner will be served in Villa Isabel. Twice a week we go to a beach tavern for dinner. These two dinners are not included in the price.
Schedules are subject to change according to weather.
I was born in the late 60s in Salzburg, Austria. My father started teaching me yoga when I was an adolescent. Since then, the fascination of yoga has never faded and I had, in turn, started teaching yoga from 1990 onwards. I have been working as a psychotherapist in Vienna for many years. Of course, the perspective of western psychology influenced my approach to yoga and vice versa – the fruit of which is a yoga practice in which I connect with ease the east and the west, the old and the new.
I am a lawyer and yoga teacher and completed my yoga training with Isabella Welsch in the years 2001–05 after having practiced yoga for over 10 years. Throughout this time, my practice has always been a source of calmness and strength, so I felt the desire to share that experience and knowledge with others. I have visited the Atha Yoga Retreat House in Altafulla several times, because besides the Mediterranean climate, I also appreciate the beautiful nature and like to explore new hiking trails along the coast and inland with Isabella. I’m looking forward to teaching and hiking with you!
The price includes daily meals, except two dinners during excursions.
