Program

Just 400 meters from the beaches of Costa Calma, your venue the Esmeralda Maris is located next to the Valle de Esmeralda Natural Park in a place of paradisiacal tranquillity, allowing spectacular views of the ocean and the famous Sotavento beaches.

One way to think of balance is this: a total state of health that incorporates togetherness of body and mind. To be balanced is a way of being and a state of mind. Mindfulness will be of focus and you will be guided on how to integrate mindfulness principles in your yoga practice and your life.

Your daily life is mostly Yang, and so is your regular morning with some yang style yoga - active and dynamic. Some of your retreat days are planned for you to enjoy the exploration of the island on your way out and about with some fun activities like mountain biking or surfing.

And some days are reserved to just indulge more on a journey inwards.

Relax at a beautiful sea view venue The Esmeralda Maris, where you can experience the wellness and spa facilities (at an additional charge).

Forget about your to-do list in the sauna or Turkish bath, disconnect in the Jacuzzi and enjoy the sensation shower or the cold pool or opt for a renewing massage. There is also the opportunity to use the gym and sports facilities to continue getting in shape also during your holidays.

In the afternoons they invite you on a yin yoga healing journey through the Taoist elements, get to know about the chi meridian flow in your body and acupressure points for your well-being.

When you awaken and align your body's underlying energy, you activate your innate process of healing and transformation. Yin yoga will help you create profound shifts in your physical and emotional well-being. Alexandra will demystify how energy affects everything you do and feel and show you how to mindful work with your body and mind. These Yin yoga healing sessions will help you build vitality, unravel energetic blockages, and boost your immunity.

With this retreat program, you have the opportunity and space to let your mind learn from the body experience of learning new things and cultivate a free spirit. To love life and live free. To be in touch with nature and yourself. And then, you might realize, there is nothing more grounding than a body and a mind that has decided to be whole.

By the end of this retreat, you will feel stronger, healthier, and better able to thrive and flow in the life you are meant to live!

Location

Fuerteventura, known as the “European Caribbean”, has been declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. This island is located less than a hundred kilometres from the African coast, features a unique desert landscape, and has as its hallmark more than 150 kilometres of white sand beaches and turquoise waters.

As Miguel de Unamuno said, it is a piece of Sahara Africa launched in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Its sea breeze, loaded with negative ions, makes one completely relax as soon as you set foot on Fuerteventura, you easily feel as if you are on another planet. Find virgin and hidden white-water beaches, big waves or calm sea beaches as well as sandy lakes and charming fishing villages.
