| •Explore, Relax, Restore & Heal
This is your holiday to enjoy! Plenty of free time is given between yoga sessions to rest and restore, or explore the local scenery by foot or by car. All retreats offer quality holistic treatments at reasonable prices. There is one free day midweek for everyone to enjoy as they choose. Local group excursions can be organised for that day, directly with the venue.
•Yoga & General Programme
Arrival times usually range from 14:00-16:00. Arrival day entails a group orientation, usually at dinnertime. Departures are normally at 10:00.
Morning sessions (2-3 hours) offer an uplifting, invigorating practise, with emphasis on inversions, balancing poses & heart-opening. Every morning begins with a 20 minute Pranayama (breathing) session.
Evening sessions (1-1.5-2 hours) offer a quieter, restorative/therapeutic practise, which includes twists, forward bends and hip-openens. Sitting or walking meditation is included, with occasional chanting, and occasional group silence until dinner.
All sessions may include partner work.
•All Levels
You will often see experienced yogis alongside absolute beginners at Susan’s retreats. Susan’s training background and therapeutic teaching style enables her to skillfully teach ALL LEVELS optimally. It is an honour for her to serve, uplift & inspire all attendees by connecting them with their own inner light.
TESTIMONIALS:
“I must have been building up some good karma to have earned a weeek’s practice with Susan. She has the empathy that the nervous student needs. She also has a great teaching tehnique, a wonderful laugh and a huge heart. If you have the chance to work with her, grab it with both hands.”
-Jane (London, UK)
Susan's approach to teaching is very firm and very tender. The result is that people in her retreat experience, in mind and in body, ripples at the edges of courage and fear, trust and the unknown. My body and heart were, and are, extremely grateful!
-Jill (New York, USA)
“My first yoga retreat, but certainly not my last...excellent food, time to relax by the pool, and time to get lost in a good book. A great journey. I was inspired and impressed by Susan’s energy, professionalism, and all she shared with us. She is a brilliant yogi, but more importantly, an excellent teacher with the ability to reach out and challenge everyone at different levels.”
-Rikke (Copenhagen, Denmark)
