Soulful Ritual
4 -day hiking, kayaking, paddling and Yoga retreat in the Malaga Provence
.
I am very happy to be offering this beautiful yoga retreat in a small cosy and comfortable setting.
I visited Claudia the owner in her mountain retreat and fell in love with the simplicity of the experience she offers.
This retreat is nestled high up in the mountains in Claudia’s home. There is a maximum of 5 guests and even I helped to clean the dishes away after I was served a beautiful healthy lunch in the sunshine.
As Claudia showed me around the villa she picked up an avocado that had fallen from the tree and insisted that I take it home. There were orange and lemon trees surrounding the barbecue to the rear.
Claudia has such a lovely friendly warm personality that makes you feel healthier and happier just by being there. She offers creative Vinyasa, Hatha, and meditative Yin yoga classes, mediation, hiking, and kayaking or paddling in beautiful surroundings, stargazing, delicious and healthy vegetarian and vegan meals, inspiring plenty of warm friendly conversations around the fire in a warm and personalised family setting.
If you are the adventurous type, love nature and enjoy a cozy intimate setting where you will share your days as a private group of 5 or get to meet others ,enjoy a beautiful hike in the Andalucian national parks and exciting kayaking or paddling excursion in the beautiful natural reserve of Alcantilas de Maro then you will have a unforgettable experience here.
