what does an Ocean & Yoga Retreat look like?
Live with us on an organic farm in Portugal, Algarve, during this yoga retreat. Wake up, grab a tea and walk to the beautiful yoga deck. Start your day with a meditation practice, returning to your inner silence. Prepare for a yoga morning flow and movement session. Classes are suitable for any level and we create and hold a safe space for you to drop inside, find your inner strength and reconnect to the vital flow within you.
After our morning session you will be served a healthy superpower brunch cooked with love, with most ingredients coming from our garden.
In the afternoon, you have time to relax, go to the beach or for a walk, or book a massage …
our new & authentic approach to surfing:
ocean adventures by Ocean & Yoga
Feel more! During our retreat week together, we'll go on an ocean exploration to experience the qualities of this big blue vastness. We dive in and learn how to see and feel currents, how to hold your breath and dive, or float along the river stream, how to catch waves on a surfboard, or other floating devices or with your whole body.
Depending on weather and wind, we also spend some time on the beach together, or we'll walk around the cliffs and learn how to open your senses and study the laws of the ocean. Edu or Joao will be guiding you on this adventure.
Our team is dedicated to guide you through a journey of reawakening your sense of wonder and joy for the world you live in. You have the opportunity to connect to nature, listen to its guidance and rediscover the deep connection you have with all beings.
relaxing yoga holidays & creating new healthy habits for your life
On most of the yoga retreat days, we'll have an additional yin yoga session in the afternoon that will allow our bodies to soften and dive into the present moment. On one evening we enjoy a special sound journey under the stars.
Our dinner is served on the terrace overlooking the sunset and sharing life stories and inspiring conversation with people from all over the world.
The aim of our programs is to lead a life of inner connection, responsibility and freedom - and to drop the unnecessary stories that we have written about ourselves. Through our time together you have access to tools that support you to reawaken your truth and let go of what doesn't serve you anymore.
During our yoga retreat week together you will experience the supporting structure of community: we share a house, eat meals together, laugh, dance, play and share stories and songs around the campfire. It is so much more than just a yoga and surf retreat!
