Yoga Retreat Sacred Mountain - embodied yoga, meditation, hiking, nature, massage, dance, organic food
With Cat Boal and Kelsey Koontz
May 8 - 12, 2024
Our signature retreat at the beloved Cortijo Casería del Mercado in Las Alpujarras.
El Cortijo Casería del Mercado is found in an isolated section of the Alpujarras- we will have the mountain to ourselves as we coexist on a self-sustaining farm. The expansive grounds are covered in flowers and vegetation, with gardens that will provide our daily meals. El Cortijo features a mineral water pool, open terraces, spacious common areas, and 2 shalas for yoga, meditation, and training. Accommodation is cosy and comfortable. There are endless opportunities for hiking and wandering in nature. The loudest noise… is the silence (& the peacocks!)
We will share daily yoga practices as well as embodied movement , dance, mantra, meditation and more.
There will also be opportunities for:
-Private massage and energy healing treatments
-Hiking in the infinite hectares of land- to the river, to the trees, or to the town of Cástaras
-Free time in communal spaces to swim, to read, to write, to rest and to use the natural sauna/temazcal
-Access to yoga shalas and outdoor space for independent practice
