Retreats
Every now and then we need to take time out to reflect on our lives and the journey that we are making.. A retreat offers a safe and nurturing environment to gather with like-hearted people to do just this.
Being on retreat helps us to achieve balance, deeply relax and re- energise ourselves. It give us time to reconnect with ourselves on a deeper level and gives us the opportunity to develop our understanding and experience of the Yogic teachings and practices. This all supports us in taking a fresh look at the next step we want to take in our life, and the way in which we would most like to take it.
Our Foundation Experience Retreat is offered in Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, marking the transition in cycles through the year.
The retreat is designed in such a way: that the healing, integration and insight continually deepen each time you do it. Revision of the foundation yogic teachings is always good, and repetition of the practices just continues to help us to deepen our awareness and connection to our own living truth.
Participants say that reviewing the weekend is always a fresh, insightful and unique experience.

Introduction to the Path of Universal Yogic Dharma:
Awakening to our Evolutionary Impulse
Humanity is in the midst of a time of unprecedented changes and challenges. The reality of planetary crisis may be upon us, though could this also be a time of unprecedented opportunity?
We are coming to realise that there is an intimate connection between the transformation that many of us are experiencing within ourselves, and the evolution and transformation of our planet.
At the heart of this awakening is the impulse to evolve. To break free from the old ego-mind, and live the life of our authentic heart-self. In doing so, we reveal the source of joy and inspiration inside of ourselves and awaken to our potential as co-creators for a sustainable future.
Those of us who are hearing the call of awakening, who are dusting off the veils of illusion, have the opportunity to participate, in what many are saying, could be the greatest transformation in consciousness that our planet has ever known.?
This weekend retreat offers a safe and nurturing environment to gather with like-hearted people, to reflect on these timely teachings and how they relate to our daily lives and to the unique and personal journey that we are making.
