This retreat is designed for those looking for a full immersion into yoga & Ayurveda.

There will also be plenty of time to rest and recharge as well, enjoying long coastal walks, unspoilt nature and a delicious cuisine daily cooked for us.
What we offer on this retreat:
Yoga and Ayurveda (traditional Indian medicine) are considered to be sister sciences that show the way to be able to enjoy full health and overall well-being. They root their fundamental principles from the same sources, which make them very complementary.
- You will get closer to the elements you are made of: earth, water, fire, air and ether.
- Understand which ones dominate in you and how they influence you – your health, addictions & behaviour – on a daily basis.
- Personal development: you will leave with some practical and highly customised keys to better find your balance in your daily life.

Summer Yoga Lisbon 2021: 🌸Practice for charity🌸
Thank you for sharing your love!
Thanks to our participation to our Summer Yoga Classes, we will be able to provide full sponsorship for 2 kids for school year 2021-2022. A warm round of applause to all of you 👏👏👏.
I strongly believe in education as the best weapon against suffering and violence. For that reason I’ve chosen to support Bank to school, a small and extremely hands-on association which aims at bringing Lebanese kids back to school. They managed to support the education of 516 children (303 familles) in 2020. www.banktoschool.com.

Yoga in Lisbon & Personal development
Yoga is more than just postures and breathing exercises. In reality this is even only the tip of the iceberg. This visible part is certainly very interesting: it allows us to keep the body in shape and in good working order, in good health and therefore to feel good. This is of course very important. However, the submerged part of the iceberg is all the more fascinating. When the body is ready, and the breathing is fluid and controlled, then the practitioner of yoga can begin to glimpse the essence of this ancestral practice: meditate, go deeper & meet his true “self”, his purusa. It is the work of a lifetime. This is the profond aim of Yoga. And this is the proposition of Patañjali through the Yoga Sūtra, considered the founding text of the classical philosophy of yoga. Describing and analyzing in depth the human psyche, it offers us a unique platform for reflection on the human condition.
