Your home yoga: MONTHLY RETREATS AND RESIDENTIAL Retreats

MINI- RETREATS

Our monthly “mini- retreats” on Sunday afternoons offer a delicious opportunity for some self-care and to rebalance. Each is individual, based on a theme relevant to the season or yoga theory, we spend 3 hours safely tucked away from the demands of everyday life, being kind to ourselves. We take some time to centre and ground, to breathe, move, rest and restore. Our time is filled with nourishing yoga (appropriate for every body- everything we do is inclusive and entirely optional) followed by a lovely guided relaxation and ending with generous servings of Debbie’s delicious home baked cakes and Louise’s heartwarming tonic, hopefully leaving you feeling refreshed and renewed, ready for the week ahead. You need no special clothing, equipment or prior experience, though we do recommend comfortable layers, so you can manage your temperature. The lovely and spacious hall will be laid out with everything you need and you will be warmly welcomed and surrounded by kind hearted folk.

CHAIR YOGA MINI-RETREATS

These 2-hour sessions offer an opportunity for a deeper dive into the many wonderful benefits of chair yoga. This is a lovely way to take some precious time for yourself, to rebalance and centre, to move in ways that feel nourishing and comfortable to your whole body, breath well and practice useful and enjoyable techniques that can support you to feel better. These sessions take place mainly from sitting and with options to stand or lie down, if you prefer. We spend the first hour with a full body movement practice, which includes mobilising joints, strengthening muscles, easing tension, practising co-ordination, breath awareness and some smiling and laughing! We then break away for nice teas/ coffee and an array of Debbie’s fabulous home baked cakes and a chat. We then return to complete the session with some soothing relaxation techniques and a guided relaxation. You need no special clothing, equipment or prior experience, though we do recommend 

comfortable layers, so you can manage your temperature. The lovely, spacious hall will be laid out with everything you will need. You will be warmly welcomed and surrounded by kind hearted folk, however you are feel on arrival.

11-1pm, £15.00/ £20.00 per couple (same household).

RESIDENTIAL RETREATS

Since March 2020, we have had the honour of hosting several residential retreats each year. These have each been unique, refreshing and special and have all left us with a long-lasting glow!  We aim to offer each guest the nourishment that they need, from all sorts of lovely activities, as well as time for inactivity. .

Our regular “home from home” venue is a beautifully refurbished former silk mill, set amongst gorgeous scenery in the heart of The Peak District, on the banks of the River Dane. The venue offers lovely indoor areas and plenty of outdoor space. We like to be outdoors as much as possible- beside the river for our yoga practices, exploring the spectacular scenery, maybe taking a dip or candle-lit evenings around the fire-pit to star gaze. The venue is the perfect base to connect with nature; there are lots of lovely places to sit and access to footpaths in all directions.

We offer a generous programme of all the goodness that we can muster, including a variety of yoga practices, but urge you to do exactly as you like throughout. You may crave time to be quiet and still or enjoy much needed human interaction, this is purely and simply time for you, to please

yourself, so you can take exactly what you need to hopefully arrive home again feeling restored, sparkling and whole!

2 and 3 night retreats available.
