You will stay in a beautiful restored barn in the north of the Netherlands, three kilometers from the Wadden Sea. The large open kitchen is the beating heart of the barn, surrounded by various seating areas, dining tables, and a lounge corner. The mezzanine on the first floor is ideal for yoga. The light that enters through the stepped skylights of the wooden structure creates a special atmosphere.
The barn has nine bedrooms, single, double, and triple, that are equipped with single box-spring beds, a desk, and a private bathroom with a rain shower. The beds are made up with linen, and towels are provided. Sustainability is the core of the place, optimally insulated and gas-free, and is heated and cooled by a geothermal heat pump. There are no fewer than a hundred solar panels on the roof of the bar,n and there are charging points for electric cars. Bicycles are available to rent.
Program
Suze [Msc] has a background in psychology and is a certified yoga teacher and Yoga Nidra facilitator, teaching yoga since 2006. She is also a certified body-oriented trauma therapist and orthomolecular therapist. She combines this with specific practices like TRE® [trauma release exercises], functional range conditioning [FRC®], and family constellations in her private practice in Amsterdam. During the retreat, she will dive into a program filled with strong Vinyasa yoga classes, somatic practices, TRE®, yoga Nidra, lectures on the nervous system, fascia system, psoas, vagus nerve, and more.
You will learn about the functioning of your nervous system, how it relates to your sense of well-being, and how to regulate it. Even though these practices are powerful and healing, the approach during the retreat is lighthearted and geared towards offering you the tools to navigate your own life experiences during and long after. Everyone is welcome on this retreat, regardless of age or level, including couples, friends, families, and solo travelers. If you are looking for a small retreat nestled in nature near the sea, then this one is for you.

Retreat location
The farm is located in North Holland, as the crow flies, less than three kilometers from the Wadden Sea. The location has an end-of-the-world feel, but is in fact via the A7 motorway easily accessible from the Randstad [conurbation Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, and Utrecht].
Food
You will be served daily brunch, snack, and dinner included in the price. Most of the food will be provided with local fruits and vegetables from nearby gardens. Casa Di Yoga will share homemade meals, mostly plant-based, think of creamy bean dips, a variety of tomatoes with peaches and stracciatella, miso frittata with mustard greens, and tahini brownies. They believe that making healthy choices in life does not have to be hard at all, food that will not just nurture your body, but is tasty at the same time. Their focus lies on sourcing the best produce from Puglia; they work directly with farmers who love their craft. Casa Di Yoga can accommodate most special food requests.
