Andalusian Luxury Yoga Retreat
Benahavis, Spain
Sun, Oct 9, 2022, 2:00 PM - Fri, Oct 14, 2022, 12:00 PM
Katarina will lead you through 2 x 90 minute yoga classes and 1 x 15min meditation per day. On the arrival day there will be a post flight Vinyasa Flow before our welcoming circle and on the last morning it will be a farewell Rocket Yoga practice. The rest of the full days will start with a 15minute meditation followed by a 90min Mandala Vinyasa practice and end with a sunset Yin Yoga practice.
Mandala vinyasa is a creative and dynamic practice, allowing you to move around your mat with fluidity. Each day the practice will focus on a specific element, chakra and part of the body. By the end of the week we will have journeyed through all 4 elements leaving in a state of complete balance.
Rocket is an energetic and invigorating practice that has its roots from Ashtanga vinyasa. You will have the opportunity to try advanced postures such as arm balances and inversions but modifications will be given if that isn’t your thing. Linking breath and movement, this dynamic class will leave you with a sense of achievement.
Yin yoga is a deep stretching, meditative and seated practice where poses are held for up to 5 minutes allowing your body to really open and let go. The Yin yoga will complement the subtle and physical body that we will be working on that day.
All of the yoga is open to all levels of practitioner, Katarina has to experience and knowledge to be able to offer you modifications, props and variations to work for your body.
