Please use our contact form for more information on the events given below. Paul Riddy will be the main teacher unless otherwise stated.
Workshops explore aspects of yoga
theory and practice in more detail. These usually take the form of day
or half-day meetings at various venues. Any special requirements will
be given in the event details.
Weekends and Holidays are structured
around yoga practice/discussion in the morning and evening, leaving the
day and some of the evening free for other activities. Yoga practice will
be suitable for all levels of experience, and the walking can range from
gentle walks to demanding mountain walking, according to the group. Food
is vegetarian, but we aim to give you a taste of local culture and cuisine.
Some holidays have more of a cleansing focus built in, and this will indicated
alongside the event details.
Retreats give an opportunity for
intensive work with yoga practice and philosophy, and are based around
days with a more structured programme. They are suitable for all levels
of experience unless otherwise stated. Food is vegetarian, and participants
are encouraged to minimise their intake of stimulating foods and drinks.

Yoga and Walking weekend near Sidmouth in Devon
Boswell Farm cottages cluster around a courtyard in rural Devon in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The cottages provide four star accommodation and we practice in a purpose built practice space, with views over a wooded valley.
The weekend is for a small group, and we blend yoga and walking to stretch and settle the body, mind and emotions. There will be led walks of a few hours each day, heading out towards the dramatic Jurrasic coast, and with many shorter walks available around the farm.
Typical cost: full board for a 2 night weekend: two sharing £200

and walking with an experience of Romania culture and hospitality. Spend time walking in the mountains, exploring the culture, or just being still.
Typical c ost: full board for 8 days 7 nights: two sharing, £350, excluding flights.
