Space for learning, discussion, practical embodied techniques, and joyful community connection.


Discover this fascinating personalised approach to asana practice to guide you towards the yoga that really works for you. Learn how to bring out the best from your practice by adapting and tailoring your approach using some simple modification techniques that can be quickly and easily applied in your daily life and on the mat. Applicable to any form of yoga you may already know, from kundalini to vinyasa, this holistic approach will elevate your wellbeing and imbue true transformative power.

This retreat is for those who want to deepen their knowledge and practically try Ayurvedic nutrition, massage, and yoga for their self-care.

Beginners will learn an accessible approach to start their yoga journey with the fundamental principles to guarantee success. Advanced yogis will unwrap another layer of personalisation to their practice which will help them go deeper than ever before. Yoga teachers, facilitators and space holders will learn how to improve their classes with tried-and-tested techniques, bringing out their students' innate strength and unique vitality.

This is yoga which is naturally suited to your own temperament and tendencies - play to your strengths and targeting your weaknesses in a way that feels intuitive and inspired. This course is suitable for anyone who wants to add dimension to their own yoga and learn how Ayurveda can support you in finding a practice that serves your ultimate goals.

Over the weekend we will look at how you can tailor asana practice for each of the three main elemental types, Vata (air), Pitta (fire) and Kapha (earth and water). Practice in each style and feel the difference for yourself. Learn how to identify each of these three types by taking a general appraisal of physical, mental and emotional characteristics.

Discover the therapeutic practice of ayurvedic massage and how to use this key technique on yourself and others. And of course, 'yoga' is not just about asana, we explore the mantra, pranayama and meditations you can use to pacify each elemental type and diversify your practice.

Enjoy ayurvedic food over the whole weekend and explore the sensory therapy of elemental eating so you feel equipped with the knowledge to make the best choices for your own holistic health and wellbeing. In our guided voice activation workshop, drop into a space of centred heart and reveal your true voice. There will be plenty of opportunity for personalised learning during our open Q&A sessions with our ayurvedic experts where you can get the answers to the questions that really matter to you.

All this against a backdrop of the gorgeous nature of the Thames Valley, with wild swimming in the refreshing river waters each morning, free time to walk in the glorious green of the forested hills and impeccable campfire vibes with kirtan, music and song.

We also give you exclusive online entry to our partner course so you will have all the materials you need to prepare for the live event, and review at your leisure with lifetime access.
