Warrior Variation
Join us for a restful yoga retreat February 2025. This is our favorite time of the year as the days start to get longer and mother nature starts to expand after the winter months. With the weather not being to hot we will be able to go on long walks through the forest tracks to explore the landscape.

Planetary Gongs

We do not generally make our caravans available at this time of year as they do not have any heating and the night time can be quite fresh, but if you would like to stay in one then get in touch. We do understand that some people do prefer to stay out in nature. You would also be welcome to have a camp fire in the evening under the stars if we have clear night skies.

This will be the first retreat we hold here in February 2025 and we are really looking forward to it. Since we started hosting retreats over a decade ago we have learnt that February is a month when some of us need to just getaway from it all and go on a yoga retreat to take a little time for themselves. We have also had a lot of requests from school teachers who are looking for a well earned break during the school holidays half term in 2025.

So here it is a week of vinyasa flow, qigong and yin yoga, meditation, sound healing gong baths, shamanic drum journey's. a perfect antidote to releasing the stress and tensions from the body and mind in a very beautiful location in the heart of rural central Portugal.

On this yoga retreat February the morning class will be Evolutionary Yoga. This is what we call a yang practice as yang is expansive and heat generating though dynamic movement, yang is also objective and so is very much about the mind and thinking about thoughts etc. So in the morning we will be slowly and gracefully moving through synchronizing body and mind using the breath as the guide. At the start of class in the morning we will have a look at and practice the methods of mindfulness. Mindfulness is a time tested practice that allows a person to come into each and every moment without any judgement or preference to what might be happening now and when we look at what might be happening now we usually see that we are experiencing thought, emotions and sensations which all create feelings.

In the evening classes we take a much more yin approach. Unlike the yang practice of being objective in our perception the yin classes takes us deep inside as it is the subjective experience that allows us to really connect to our body and mind through sensation. Yin focuses more on compression of the joints and tension inside the connective tissue which allows us to come into each moment as the body and sensation is here now. In this practice we also have the opportunity of removing blockages in the meridians according to Chinese medicine as we surrender to the theory of gravity, allows gravity to gently massage us in each posture.
