All meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks).

Use of the yoga shala when it’s not being used by the group.

Flights to Colombia.

Taxies to and from the airport, though this will be organised for you so that you may share with fellow retreaters if you wish.

Massages will be available and can be booked at your own discretion.

The closest airport is Medellin. Our retreat centre is about 2.5hrs from there.

Closer to the time, I will share some suggested flights.

Once I have everyones flight details, I will organise taxis for you and group you with people arriving at similar times.

Depending on your flight times, you will also be given the option to stop off at Guatapé for a few hours on the way to the retreat centre (if you arrive late but you’re keen to see Guatapé, don’t worry, you can also see it on your last day!)

This retreat will be planned to suit all levels. Classes will be tailored to suit the group.

Whether you’re an experienced practitioner or are newer to the practice, you’ll be met exactly where you are & be supported in deepening your practice.

Of course!

Coming alone can be a wonderful experience as it leaves you completely open to connecting with fellow retreaters & hosts.

If you’re worried about sharing a room with someone you don’t know, you can opt for a single occupancy room.

If you’d like to share with someone, we’ll pair you with someone we think you’ll get along with.

This retreat is all about journeying inwards & making space for you. We would love for you to join all our offerings, but if making time for you means skipping meditation to sleep a little longer or stay by the river until dinner, that’s completely up to you!

Definitely! Our chef will be creating a bespoke menu just for our retreat. When you sign up, you will be asked if you have any dietary requirements so that this can be incorporated into the menu & you will be fully catered for.

All food will be vegan or vegetarian.

If you’d like to use a payment plan, you’ll initially secure your spot with a £300 non-refundable deposit.

From there, you’ll be able to split the remainder over how ever many months are left before the retreat with full payment due 2 months before the start (25th November 2024).
