Retreat Information
YOGA
The retreat includes seven hours of yoga. This includes theory, practice, philosophy, as well as ways to incorporate yoga into your own personal life. Classes will include: ashtanga vinyasa inspired movement classes, pranayama, meditation, yoga nidra, yin yoga, chanting, circle discussion, discovering the power of ritual, and the alchemical properties of yoga (how yoga heals, transforms and empowers your life). Our yoga shala is in a brightly lit and warm space, fully equipped with all mats and props, to ensure a comfortable space for practice. Me (Alena) will be your yoga teacher.
SURF
Surfing is our added treat for this retreat! Domburg boasts one of the best waves in Holland and the beach is only steps away from our pristine retreat centre.
Jimmy, our local Dutch surf expert and coach with over 15 years of experience, will lead you through 4 hours of surf sessions.
You will learn important theory, be guided through the practical (yes this means surfing your own waves!), and also be directed with personal tips and instruction from Jimmy.
Surfing is an optional add on activity. We do this as surfing is dependent on wave forecast and weather. For those who do not have their own board or wetsuit, we will provide this equipment and it will be included in the costs for surfing.
NATURE WALKS
Guided Nature Walks are included in this retreat, leading you on a magical journey to connect with the pristine nature of southern Holland.
Jimmy is a forester, wilderness guide and expert Vision Quester, with many years of studying nature's gifts and depths. Jimmy will lead you on comfortable walks and encourage you to learn about the wonders of natural world around you.
This includes tips for foraging foods and medicinal plants that are native to Northern Europe and have fed and healed our ancestors for millennia. You will also have the opportunity to collect your own wild fruits from nature along the way that we will cook into our retreat meals.
FOOD
We believe that food is a divine blessing of nourishment and medicine. All of our meals are prepared with love and attention to the healing and replenishing properties of food.
Meals are Ayurvedic inspired and made by our professional chef with input from Alena, who has had over a decade of experience with holistic nutrition and the healing properties of food.
All meals are served in a family dining style to share the love and joy of food together.
ACCOMMODATION
We have scouted out a spectacular retreat space at Yoga Bee Retreat Centre in Domburg, Holland. Only steps away from the beach and the charming village of Domburg, Yogabee is the ideal place to escape for a peaceful and replenishing weekend.
Yogabee is a luxurious yet down to earth setting for enjoying the activities of the retreat. Facilities include a indoor heated pool, a sauna, spectacular gardens, cosy hang out areas, and a large kitchen for our communal meals. So bring your swim suit and a good book!
All rooms are shared accommodation with the option of either private, semi-private or shared bathroom. Perfect for bringing a friend or a partner!
