Holistic yoga retreat in Andalusia
I am thrilled to head back to the magical Suryalila next February and hope you can join us for this nurturing, relaxing and transformative 6 day Yoga retreat in the south of Spain, from Sunday 17th to Friday 22nd.
The wonderful Cecilia Wootz and Kate Alpe are joining me so we can treat you with a mix of morning uplifting dynamic practices and evening restorative / Yin sessions and sound baths…. I know… can’t wait….
Suryalila is a beautiful retreat centre in the foothills of Andalusian mountains in southern Spain and the perfect place to unwind, rest & re energise mind, body and soul. The Yoga shalas, the delicious vegetarian/vegan organic food, the accommodation, the sauna, all create the perfect environment and scenery to find stillness and allow the mind and body time to rest and unwind and revitalise your energy on all levels.

This 6 day and 5 night retreat is suitable for all abilities and levels of experience and limited to 18 spaces to ensure impactful practice and support.
Morning classes will be a 2 hour holistic Yoga practice led by Julie and assisted by Cecilia. A dynamic, energizing and uplifting class, including gentle warm ups, breath kriyas (cleansing), posture work, pranayama, meditation and relaxation.
Evening classes will be slower, more introspective restorative practices, including Yoga Nidra, Yin, silent and guided meditations and pranayama, to allow a deep relaxation of our whole organism and releasing areas of deep rooted tension and resistance. Whilst I guide you into the poses, Kate will bring the ancient healing vibrations into your practice, enabling you to relax into a wonderful alpha brainwave state. Stress and tension will gradually slip away, enabling your mind and body to gently let go, allowing you to sink deeper into a truly gorgeous practice.

TESTIMONIALS
The whole experience was wonderful. Their was a great generosity of spirit during the week spent on Suryalial, from the abundance of great food to the sharing among the group and your sharing all your knowledge with us. The yoga classes were challenging and pushed me to try new asana that normally I’d avoid. Your wonderful sense of humour kept it all upbeat and moving along. I loved the variety, pranayama, chanting, mixture of Yin and vinyasa yoga and mudras. I looked forward to each session knowing something new was to be shared. The retreat was well planned with great variety and I’m looking forward to your next one….keep me informed!
Thanks for creating an environment where each of us could explore in a way which suited us individually. I have come away with an enhanced awareness of and respect for my body and what it is telling me. I feel that I have moved on in my yoga journey in that I am now able to better incorporate my physical body into my mind/body/spirit practice. I’ve realised that until now, I haven’t given it enough attention. Thank you! I really enjoyed learning TRE too. Having a technique which will enable healing of the many injuries I’ve sustained is a true gift. I loved the yoga nidra, your spontaneous chanting and the quotes and poems you shared. Finally, thank you for being uniquely you.
