Worcestershire Weekend
@ The Fold Organic Farm, Bransford 

Friday 23rd - Mon 26th May 2025 

A relaxed weekend of yoga practice, good food and good company in beautiful surroundings in Worcestershire.  A chance to drink in some seasonal delights in the English countryside.  The Fold is a lovely venue - a community farm, with it's own cafe and artists' studios, as well as the converted barn where our yoga sessions will take place.  There is a choice of local accommodation from onsite camping to a very comfortable hotel across the road.  Evening catering is provided by our very own Manasi Nandi, at a private location nearby.  After a lovely visit last year we are very happy to be invited to back to this lovely corner of the country in 2025!  Read on for full details and booking.

Easter Weekend Retreat in Snowdonia

​with Anna & Stephen 

Fri 15th April 4pm - Sun 17th April 2pm 2022

A chance to spend a weekend in this wonderful location, with time and space to focus on yoga & meditation practice and to simply be.​  No prior experience of meditation is needed.  We will be taking inspiration from the landscape around us - the stillness and majesty of the mountains, the presence of the lake, the green spring flora and the elements of the weather, whatever that may be!  We will let the inspiration from nature support and inform our practice on the mat, with the aim of rejuvenation for body and mind from this peaceful setting, as well as our sessions together.   There will be free time for walking, or swimming in the lake, or simply sitting in the garden enjoying the view.  The location would also make an excellent jumping off point for a longer stay over the Easter holidays in Snowdonia.  The area has so much to offer and the beautiful North Wales coast, including the Llyn peninsula is also close by.
