You will start your day with a yoga session to wake up your body in a gentle way and after a healthy breakfast head out for a 3 - 4 hour hike taking in the breathtaking scenery. After lunch you are free for you to enjoy - have a nap, read a book by the pool, or just simply do nothing. There is another yoga session in the afternoon. Yoga styles taught include hatha, restorative and vinyasa flow. The teachers will provide modifications for your individual level.
