DERBYSHIRE
YOGA RETREAT WEEKEND
9th - 11th june 2023
Join me for a weekend designed entirely for you - dedicated time to nurture yourself inside and out. To help you reset your body and mind. To give you the opportunity to reset and receive a boost. You will be given that precious time and space to relax, recharge and reconnect to you.
Through the wonderful tools of Yoga, meditation, good wholesome food... not to mention the fresh air, surrounded by glorious open countryside, luxurious accommodation... I promise it will be a weekend not to miss!
OUR HOME FOR THE WEEKEND
Situated in the stunning rolling countryside of the Southern borders of the Peak District National Park, our home for the weekend has been decorated and furnished to an exceptional standard, providing you with a luxury space in which to retreat.
Nestled on the side of a hill, our Farmhouse enjoys beautiful open views overlooking the Derbyshire valleys.
This is such a special place and is the perfect escape, with all of the comforts you could ever need; inviting lounges with plush sofas, warming fires and breath-taking views from every window. We are surrounded by gardens with open views over the most stunning of landscapes.
This really is a place to retreat and be - you will find just the spot for some peace, or time to enjoy a hot drink with fellow retreat friends.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Our accommodation boasts boutique styled bedrooms which have been individually decorated and carefully styled. Each bedroom is decorated with stunning wallpapers, sumptuous soft furnishings and luxurious bedding. Whatever you choose, you can be sure of comfort, luxury and privacy.
We have a mix of single occupancy, twin or double rooms available and even the possibility of a triple room if you have an extra friend to join you.
Food
Throughout our weekend you will enjoy, wholesome and delicious food that will have been planned and prepared to ensure you are provided with all the nutrients your body needs for this time of year.
Expect a hearty breakfast, a lovely light lunch and a delicious evening meal, plus a little afternoon tea and cake - just because!!
We also have the option on Sunday to join together for a Sunday lunch at a fabulous nearby pub.
YOGA
We start our mornings with meditation, breathwork and gentle unwinding and releasing movement - a sumptuous awakening before breakfast. Mid morning we liven things up with some hatha flow, stretching, strengthening and warming the body, revitalising you for the day ahead. A late afternoon oozy practice ahead of dinner that look to help you unwind, release tension and maybe drool a little! Post dinner we have a chance to find time to recline over bolsters hopefully under a beautiful summer night sky.
This retreat is all about nurturing and nourishing you, finding your feel good. Let me take you on a delicious journey of Yoga to help you do just that.
All yoga will be suitable for all, from beginners to intermediate to advanced. Everyone is welcome.
We have a beautiful spacious dedicated yoga barn for the weekend in the lovely warm and modern converted barn, with exposed beamed rafters, adjoining the Farmhouse.
And with lots of open outdoor space I very much hope to share the beauty of outdoor yoga with you too.
ITINERARY
We arrive from 4.30 pm on Friday with our opening yoga class starting at 5.30 pm.
We then join together for dinner at 7pm.
On Sunday, departures are from midday or why not stay a little longer and enjoy a Sunday lunch in a local pub with me and your fellow guests plus an optional group walk before your journey home.
Our days will roll like our yoga classes do, a slow flow blend of movement and relaxation that makes the most of the stunning location we are in.
We are in the most beautiful of areas and there are many walks around from our doorstep. You can be as adventurous or relaxed as you wish.
