RETREAT'S PROGRAM AND YOUR HOSTS

THE YOGA:
The Yoga classes are Hatha Vinyasa style with an everyday focus on a different topic ( on building strength, on building a healthy back, focused on surfing etc.); Always depending on the group that comes together.
The Workshop
During our workshop we will try techniques to replace pure muscle strength by using energy and not get exhausted during practice but rather vivid. Working with breath and gravity and feeling the body, being conscious of every movement.
