Breath ... Relax Yoga Retreats March 2017 in Mafia Island - Tanzania

Do you feel stressed out, or out of balance due to hurries and worries of daily lives? Looking for a relaxing health giving getaway or just looking for a lovely break?

Reinvigorate your mind, body and spirit through a combination of yoga, meditation, healthy food, excursions, and relaxation in an intimate tropical paradise in Mafia Island. Get back in touch with the elements of nature and experience yogic practices in peaceful beaches, and more adventures.
Our yoga retreats in Mafia Island are the perfect opportunity to find deep relaxation and quiet as well as adventure exploring the diverse marine life and the Swahili culture.

Experience the heart of Mafia Island Marine Park in this regeneration yoga retreat and get back in touch with the elements of nature and its simplicity. After few days enjoying yoga, empty beaches with gently swaying coconut palm trees, sailing and other adventures , we are sure you will be leaving us feeling more relaxed, and grounded.

We are delighted to continue our collaboration with Pole Pole lodge to offer holistic yoga getaways on the shores of Mafia Island. Pole Pole’s fundamental philosophy is founded on natural rhythms, harmony with its surrounds, and the soothing ebb and flow of the ocean – and as such, is quintessentially made for yoga. What’s more, Orenda’s founder Leila has lived on the Tanzanian coast, allowing her to absorb its cadence and flavour, and is the perfect person to impart it to you as she guides, teaches and heals.

Through gentle yogic flow, pranayama and meditation, you will enter into a natural rhythm of regeneration and balance, much like the lunar pattern of Mafia’s tides. The daily practice during the retreat will develop and refine your inner awareness, with a focus on letting go through both movement and stillness.

Daily yoga flow, meditation and Pranayamas
Diving, snorkeling on Chole Bay
