Jane Piddington and Joanna Hicks are delighted to offer this yoga retreat at beautiful Yuva Eco Retreat Centre beside the Aegean Sea on the stunning Turquoise coast of Southwest Turkey.
Sunrise meditation with Joanna, Ashtanga vinyasa morning session and afternoon pranayama and technique session with Jane - leaving plenty of time in between to relax and swim in the crystal clear sea, walk along the coastal paths or simply rest in one of the kosks.
All food is vegetarian Turkish village cuisine - varied, fresh and prepared with love!
The first day of the retreat, Monday 11th, will be arrival day. Full programme will begin on Tuesday 12th. There will be 5 days of the full programme and a day off when we will offer an optional excursion on one day possibly taking in the nearby harbour town of Fethiye and a boat trip. Monday 18th will be departure day.
Yuva is a very special retreat centre which has been created harmoniously within the landscape in which it nestles. Far from light pollution and off-road the air is fragrant with herbs and the atmosphere is one where you truly breathe!
It is run by a Turkish family who will openly welcome you as their guests.
