Looking for a new source of inspiration for your yoga practice? Start 2019 in an upward and inspirational spiral? Why not treat yourself to a transformative week of rejuvenating Yin and Yang Yoga practice & Mindfulness at one of Goa’s most beautiful beach front locations.
Join Regina Kerschbaumer for another holiday at the magnificent Bamboo Yoga Retreat in Goa from 13 – 20 January 2019 – for a yoga holiday of a lifetime. An opportunity to expand your horizons and reconnect with yourself. Strengthen your body and mind while you deepen your yoga practice and mindful awareness.
Regina is an experienced yoga teacher who encourages students to work at their own ability with modifications and adaptations to suit all levels – even complete beginners, with themed yoga classes, meditations and plenty of free time to relax and restore.
An ideal opportunity to enjoy on your own or share with a friend, relative or partner while staying in the comfortable, private eco-friendly bungalow beach huts with ensuite bathrooms. Yoga, sunshine, golden beaches, friendship, laughter and wholesome delicious food included. The Bamboo Yoga Retreat is built on fine white sand in a quiet and secluded spot, a short stroll from local markets and cafes, at the far end of the stunning bay of Patnem. The perfect oasis for a programme of Yin & Yang asana, meditation, mindfulness practices and pranayama in open-air, sea-view Shalas.
The experience of a week-long yoga holiday will allow the normal stresses of life to melt away and you will open to a more profound yoga practice. It will show you how to extend yoga and mindful awareness into your everyday life, and restore balance and flexibility while you soak up the sunshine before returning home to the hustle and bustle of the busy Christmas season.
Yoga & Meditations
We begin by gathering in mindfulness and silence before breakfast in the mornings to enable us to stay centred and connected to the stillness. Meditation and Pranayama will be followed by a two-hour Yin & Yang Yoga class. We meet again for a gentle, restorative Yin Yoga class in the late afternoons while watching the sun setting over the ocean. Classes will be a combination of relaxing, restorative Yin postures, rejuvenating Yang flows, Pranayama, guided meditations and mindfulness practices. Classes are suitable for all levels, from complete new beginners to advance, experienced yogis.

- Early morning tea, juice and fruit salad

- 11:30 – Delicious vegetarian brunch
