AUTUMN WILD YOGA WEEKEND

Our Wild Yoga Seasonal Weekend retreats are back! Immerse yourself in the energy of autumn; share yoga classes, workshops and discussion sessions, meditation and delicious seasonal meals all set in the beautiful surroundings of Glencoe.

At this time of year, we are moving from the high Yang energy of summer into the cooler Yin period of autumn and winter. This is a time of change – the days are shortening, the colours in nature changing as the trees prepare to shed their leaves. This is the time of year to take stock, evaluate and focus on what we truly value. In the Seasonal Yoga calendar, we are working with the element of Metal which governs change, organisation and transformation. We have an amazing series of activities planned with time both on and off the mat to help you bring a sense of alchemy to your practice.

ABOUT

We meet on Saturday morning for morning, afternoon and evening sessions with both lunch and dinner provided. Sunday features a full morning and afternoon of practice with lunch provided.  This retreat weekend is non-residential, all meals, drinks and snacks (apart from breakfast) are provided as part of the ticket price. This weekend is suitable for beginners to yoga as well as those looking to further their practice.
