BOOK A WHOLE TEPEE OR YURT FOR THE BEST PRICE

It’s great to do yoga more often and not have to rush off to normal life straight after a class ...
Jeni’s retreat was a perfect week for a “re-set” with great yoga and food in a serene setting. Her enthusiasm and inspiration was infectious! Thank you!
