Relax, recharge, renew! 7-14 September, Suryalila Retreat Centre, south of Spain.

Relax, reconnect, and renew. One week of Yoga, organic veggie food surrounded by incredible vistas.
The retreat centre is nestled serenely in a large open valley in the foothills of the Sierra de Grazelema. This majestic mountain range can be seen looming large on the horizon behind it. A striking part of the natural beauty of the property is the breathtaking vista extending in all directions: rolling hills, fields of sunflowers, and lakes. The sense of vastness and expansiveness is very uplifting.

Suryalila has three Yoga halls. Ganesha Yoga Shala has a gorgeous wooden ceiling as well as a wooden floor and is filled with light from windows on both walls as well as a skylight. It also has a lovely balcony with benches for enjoying the expansive views.

The Om Dome has been dubbed the most magnificent Yoga Hall in Europe. The sacred geometry creates a cathedral-like space, which is awe-inspiring. The Dome overlooks rolling hills, olive groves and a ruined convent. Inside, it boasts underfloor heating/cooling and two long walls for practising inversions, which have been beautifully decorated with colourful murals of Indian gods and Tibetan imagery.

Yoga and more
All classes are suitable for all levels as options will be given throughout, so if you're a complete novice or an experience yogi, there will be something for everyone. The focus is very much on renewal and feeling GOOD! So the evening restorative sessions in particular will be delicious. In the morning we'll do something a little more energising to set us up for the day. The schedule is flexible and can be tailored to the group. There will also be at least two other optional classes to try for fun, including Zumba and Taekwondo. So why not try something new?

About me
After a wonderful career travelling the world as a professional dancer, an almost daily attendance at the gym led me to make a career of it and to teach group fitness.
Once I had the basic foundations in the world of Exercise to music under my belt, the fitness bug bit hard and the next decade saw me add several more qualifications to the list including Les Mills BODYBALANCE, BODYJAM, Sh’Bam and BODYPUMP, Level 3 Personal Training, Level 3 Mat Pilates, Step, Aerobics, Dance Fitness, (Zumba), STRONG by Zumba, Weight Training, a 3rd Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo (World Taekwondo Federation), Blue Belt in Hapkido, training in Wu Shu Kung Fu and of course Yoga as well as a few other certifications to the ever-growing list.

My first encounter with yoga was via Les Mills BODYBALANCE. I loved how the yoga made me feel, physically and mentally, I loved how it helped my members feel better, and of course there was the obvious benefit of this being something I could continue to teach into later life.

Inclusivity is very important to me. I want everyone to feel safe and nurtured and leave feeling amazing and happy.

We can arrange transfers to meet you at the airport and bring you directly to the centre, for this we need you to provide all flight details at least two weeks before the retreat starts. The costs per transfer to and from the airports are: €70 for a pick up from Jerez; €90 from Seville; €150 from Malaga. Where possible we will collect guests together so they can split the cost.
