INTENTION BEHIND THIS IMMERSION
It is our pleasure to share with you this unique 5 days yoga mini intensive immersion program which will be held in April in the mountains of Greece's Island- Evia. We have designed this program for anyone who is looking for an opportunity to develop their own physical yoga practice and dive in deeper into understanding of yoga. The program is a combination of retreat experience & learning. With this in mind apart from enjoying beautiful surroundings of Evia Island during the program we will focus on exploring correct alignment, modifications and variations in the postures, look at creative sequencing and how we prepare and open up the body for more advanced postures as well as explore yoga philosophy and spiritual side of yoga so that you can feel empowered and take your practice to the next level as a student and as a teacher if you are already qualified.
EVIA SILENCE RETREAT CENTRE
This Mini Intensive Yoga Immersion Program will be hosted at the beautiful Evia Silence Retreat Centre overlooking the Porto Buffalo Bay coastline and the crystal clear Euboean sea. Built at the edge of a hill only ten metres from the beach, the retreat centre has 10

- Sri Krishna Pattabhi Jois
YANG MORNINGS & YIN EVENINGS
Each day of the yoga immersion program will include a predominately yang morning dynamic vinyasa practice with afternoon yin yoga.
Morning classes will be followed by daily meditation and breathe work sessions where we will explore various breathing techniques (pranayama) and you will be guided through guided relaxation that will allow you to re-connect with yourself and make you feel calm and content.
In the afternoons we will slow things down and the classes will incorporate restorative and yin yoga practice as well as some techniques of myofascial release to relax the muscles. You’ll float out of these classes feeling revitalised and relaxed. Modifications and variations will be provided throughout so that students of all levels will benefit and adjust the practice to your own body.
DAILY FOCUS WORKSHOPS
In order to help you deepen your knowledge and benefit from this immersion as much as possible, during the program we will offer you a daily workshop session. These sessions will be a mixture sessions where we focus on "peak postures" and look at creative sequencing and how we can warm up the body to get into them as well as sessions focusing on alignment and adjustments in the poses.
These workshops though are absolutely optional for you to attend.
