Casa_Rau, Translyvania Workshops, Retreats and Holidays

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.
