This week is designed for those who wish to further their personal development through the medium of Yoga. The Retreat is run on a traditional Classical Retreat format, and we do encourage a disciplined and concentrated attitude. We also have plenty of fun. This fun is caused by the power of the practice that enables us to see the humour in our everyday situation, expand horizons and see enjoyment.
You will take time to look at the way you approach your self, the way you make relationships and ways to enhance your life on every level. You will have an opportunity to embrace all the wonderful practices that Yoga can give you, stepping towards a more meaningful expression of living in the fast moving jungle that is our every day life in this technological world.
If you are looking for a deeper, practical and grounded approach to living life to the full, if you wish to experience a wider perception and understanding of life and your place in the world, if you wish to learn to laugh, if you wish to leave behind preconceived ideas and relax, come to Pen Pont.
