Why choose a Retreat with us?
With all the choices on offer these days, we thought it would be helpful for us to give you some reasons that we think make our retreat centre so special:
Food
We are passionate about the benefits of a healthy diet: Your meals are planned and produced with this objective and you can learn about nutrition here from experts in this field.
The fruits and vegetables we use are organic and freshly sourced from local farmers.
Most of them come from a local organic farmer called Joan, who grows everything on four large plots in the Valencian countryside within 25km of the retreat. Joan delivers to us two to three times each week so that we have fresh produce for you to enjoy.
All meals are plant-based and are freshly prepared with love by our fantastic chefs, using this organic local produce and organic whole-foods.
Filtered water, organic coffee and a selection of organic teas and infusions, fruits and home-made snacks are available to you throughout your stay.
Content
We have developed our retreats in order to help you to bring a positive inner change into your life.
With our many years of experience in running retreats and in listening to the feedback from our guests about their experiences, we can offer what our guest’s need in an informative, fun, safe, calm and comfortable manner.
We offer different levels of retreats each one with specific classes to encompass the levels and abilities of yoga for that particular retreat week.
During the yoga teacher training (YTT) courses we will instruct you to teach to the level of each student, based on our many years of teaching experience.
Over the years we have developed complimentary (optional) workshops to help guide you through your retreat or teacher training, so that you can develop and consolidate what you have been learning.
Location & Accommodation
The Valle de Laguar and the Pego Valley are two of the most beautiful locations in Europe: The mountains and the valley here bring their own peace and inspiration and you will really enjoy the presence of them. During retreats we offer a guided hike for those who would like to explore the natural beauty that surrounds the retreat centre.
Accommodation is offered in beautiful rooms with comfortable beds, each with aircon that also acts as heating in winter. All the rooms in the retreat centre have en suite bathrooms. Some rooms also have a balcony with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains and countryside.
The rooms in the TTC centre each either have ensuite bathrooms or adjacent bathrooms.
For retreats most of our rooms are private bedrooms so there is never any pressure to share or be sociable, although our friendly shala and comfortable communal area give ample time and space for guests to make friends and enjoy each other’s company. As well as this there are many mountains walk you can explore nearby and we are sure you will find a spot there that you like. Make sure you bring your walking boots!
The YTT centre is close to the beautiful historic centre of Pego town and close to the lovely main square too. The shala for practising yoga is a short walk away as is the massage centre.
During both retreats and TTCs, classes take place in the shala and when possible outside in the sunshine and fresh mountain air.
