18 days to yoga holiday

Av fredrik binette - 11 juni 2010 08:53

time runs by so quickly, it is only 18 days until the yoga holiday that I arrange in crete island in Greece starts.

  


I have booked the whole hotel for only us, so that is great!
it is a smaller place with 9 rooms, all with sea view.
the yoga holiday is fully booked this year aswell, great that so many find this trip interesting, and of course it has got a lot to do with former participants have been promoting it so much since so far [ths is the third year] everyone has been really satisfied.

  
during the day everyone is free to do what they want, relax by the pool, take a strole, read a book under the olive tree's, take a swim in a nearby local bay or head to the famous beach of elafonissos.in the early evening we do activity nr 2, wich is mostly yogaclass, but one day we do meditation in the sunset a bit higher up so you can see the whole neighborhood and the vally when watching the sun going down over the horizon.



this year there is 14 participating yogis/yoginis and 2 "extras" so quit a group!

they arrive tuesday evening where we maybe will do a short 15min "after flight yoga asana routine" then we have the relaxed wellcome meze dinner.
the whole week my mum & younger brother Michalis will cook local vegitarian dishes for the gang, this food has every year been a succés with I think everyone..

from wednesday there is 2 activities everyday, each morning we do yogapractice at 07am during the sunrise, then a nice breakfast at the tavern.





the classes will be held on elafonissos beach or a more local beach if the wind is the slow and the right direction, we also do practice by the pool and if very windy on the terass of the taverna.



then after watching the sunset  taking a shower etc we end the evening with a relaxed dinner and maybe some herbal tea.


  
then of to bed quit early to get up for the 07am yoga next day again.


this place is not among the tourist villages, this much is further out and here it is very calm and not to much to do wich is perfect to get that extra calmness during this week for the ones attending this yoga holiday.


looking forward to it!
