Yoga Retreat on the Costa de la Luz

Thursday 15 - Sunday 18 October 2009

PRICE - £390 (per person, sharing a twin or double room)

Our lovely yoga teacher Claudia is based in Jerez, where she has her own yoga classes. She teaches for us there and from time to time she also runs yoga retreats for us.

This October Claudia is running a 4 day beachside yoga retreat at one of the area’s loveliest beaches, El Palmar - please wallow in enjoying the photo of El Palmar beach and imagine yourself there!

October is a really good time in this part of Spain as it's still warm, but not as hot as in the summer - more like the weather of lovely English summer days - the ones we never seem to have enough of! This part of Spain, around the Costa de la Luz (coast of light) is still undeveloped for the most part, and even where there is some holiday development, it's very low key as buildings over 2 stories are not allowed here and nor is anything that could risk the empty, clean, fine sand beaches which this area is famous for.

This is an area which lends itself really well to relaxed meditation and on this retreat Claudia will teach 7 hours of yoga and meditation, including several different types of yoga. During the holiday you'll also have a reiki treatment with a local practitioner.

Almost unbelieveably we are able to include in this holiday's price ALL your meals (all of which are home cooked, traditional Spanish vegetarian meals), all your yoga tuition, your accommodation, all your transport and the care and attention of our local guides.

You can fly out from the UK to any of the following airports on 15 October - choose from Gibraltar, Malaga, Sevilla or Jerez (so your nearest airport in Britain should fly cheaply to one of them) and one of our guides will collect you and drive you to your first night's accommodation, in the country boutique hotel Sindhura, where you can relax by the pool, walk in the hills and enjoy their fabulous food.

The next morning after beakfast, you'll be collected and driven to the beach house at El Palmar where you're going to stay for the rest of your retreat. Here you'll be right by the coast, taking your classes while listening to the sound of the waves. Included in the 4 day retreat is a trip (driven by our guide - so no driving stress) down the coast to more of the fantastic and unspoilt Costa de la Luz beaches.

For our price you'll have to share a room with another retreater, but single rooms are available if you prefer (we'll just have to charge you a bit more).

On Sunday 18 October our guide will collect you for your return airport journey - but if you can't bear to leave this area so soon we can make this a bespoke holiday for you, combining the retreat with additional days in other locations, classes and treatments of your choice.
