Program
You will start the day with morning yoga practice to wake up and energise for the day ahead and end with practice to help relax and rest. You dine together for brunch and 3 course dinners in the evening. The afternoons are free for you to spend as you wish. You could stay and relax by the pool, explore the local area or enjoy a massage. There will be a special evening meal with an Arabian theme, live music and a tea ceremony.
This week is an opportunity to allow yourself to be taken care of, to be healed, and nurtured. This retreat is suitable for all levels of practitioners from those newer to yoga to those who wish to develop and deepen their existing practice. Nelumbo Yoga's hope is you leave the week feeling restored, relaxed, and revitalised.
Yoga Practice
The yoga classes will be open to all levels. Nelumbo Yoga will do their best to offer variations so everyone can practice together but at a level of intensity that feels right – whether you are looking for a more gentle or a more challenging practice.
Class themes will vary from day to day and may include Ashtanga yoga, Vinyasa yoga, a restorative practice, pranayama practice (breathing), yoga Nidra (yogic sleep), meditation or specialized workshops such as arm balancing or inversions. These sessions will be tailored to the wishes of the group.
This is a week for you to reconnect with yourself, meet other like-minded practitioners whilst immersing yourself in practice so that you return home revitalised and relaxed.
