This retreat, held at Continental House, a charming historic building nestled in the foothills of Hepburn Springs, offers a serene environment perfect for deepening your yoga practice and enjoying a tranquil stay.

During the retreat, participants will have the opportunity to explore the beautiful Hepburn Mineral Springs area, which offers scenic walks and a visit to the renowned Hepburn Springs Bath House and Pavillion Café.

Each day of the retreat begins at 6am with pranayama, promoting a calm and focused mindset for the subsequent asana sessions. Shayna provides expert guidance with patience and care, ensuring that each individual's body, capacity, and personal situation are respected. With daily practices, participants will progressively enhance their yoga practice, building on the instructions and lessons learned from the previous day.

The retreat schedule allows for plenty of relaxation time between yoga sessions. Participants can indulge in quiet activities such as reading, walking, receiving a massage, or simply enjoying the serene atmosphere. The on-site Turkish bath offers an authentic and blissful experience, while the massage services provide additional nurture and relaxation.

Mealtimes during the retreat are a delightful experience. The chef, Alexis, prepares exquisite meals with attention to nutrition, ensuring each dish is a work of art that is both visually appealing and nourishing. Dining together in the spacious dining room overlooking the garden fosters a sense of connection and provides the perfect backdrop for engaging conversations.

Throughout the week, participants will find themselves immersed in a calm and tranquil atmosphere that encourages personal growth and change. Each practice is followed by a long and restful savasana, allowing for deep relaxation and new insights both on and off the mat. The experience of the retreat lingers even after it ends, offering continued opportunities for growth.

On the final night, participants can enjoy a fun evening with their fellow retreat participants. They can raid the dress-up cupboard, watch a yoga documentary, and relax by the cosy open fire in the upstairs drawing room. It's an opportunity to unwind and reflect on the transformative journey.
