Surf & Yoga Retreat Algarve / Portugal: 15 - 22 May 2010
Whether yoga for surfers or surfing for yogis - we start the season with a unique Surf & Yoga Retreat in Lagos, Portugal.
Surfing and yoga have more in common appears at first glance: Both demand endurance, strength, flexibility, body tension and harmony between body and mind. This is the reason Yoga is practiced by more and more pro surfers like Kelly Slater and Rochelle Ballard and also more and more yoga practitioners would like to learn mental and physical balance in harmony with nature and the ocean. In addition to daily yoga we have the opportunity to try surfing and discover a whole new experience.
Our first yoga special in the new decade will be held near the beautiful town of Lagos in the Algarve. The Villa Katarina, our accommodation and also home base for the German pro-surfer Marlon Lipke, is equipped with a sauna, pool, pool table and large garden, we live in stylish rooms and comfortable wooden bungalows. In addition, we will spoil you with excellent, healthy meals.
Each day before breakfast and dinner, there is a yoga session. With a dynamic vinyasa flow, energized and ready to start the day. In the evening session, the focus is on stretching, meditation, rest and relaxation. Both courses are suitable for all yoga levels.
During the rest of the day, there is ample opportunity to try surfing under the supervision of a qualified surf instructor. We will visit stunning beaches along the Algarve - one of the sunniest regions of Europe! In the evening we chill with red wine by the pool or the nightlife around the idyllic town of Lagos.
The holiday is the perfect blend of yoga, meditation, fun surfing, relaxing on the beach or pool, fantastic nature and great company.
670 euro / week for 2x daily yoga, surf lessons including materials, accommodation and meals 5 days (two evenings we eat) in the city. The camp will take place from 15th to 22nd of May 2010, depending on demand it may be extended until 29th.
