Set in 7 acres of glorious untamed grounds in the beautiful West Dorset countryside, Othona is a 10 minute walk through National Trust meadows to an unspoilt stretch of coast. The accommodation is simple and comfortable, with great sea views & lots of communal space to enjoy each others company.

Othona is the perfect place to let go of the pressures of daily life & let the surrounding beauty lift your spirit.  Listen to the rhythm of the waves from the beach below & bird song from the surrounding woods.....bliss

Sue & Cathy will be offering a wonderful blend of spiritual & creative practices including yoga asanas, pranayama, meditation, chanting, singing, dancing, mosaic making, painting & more....a real opportunity to find that peaceful harmonious place within (inspired by the beauty of the environment & the yoga) out of which our innate creativity arises.

All workshops are optional & all promise to be lots of fun!!

We are really excited to have the expertise & delightful presence of YOAS artist Cathy Ebbels who will reawaken, inspire & teach us the wonderful skill of mosaic making, painting & other artistic pursuits. Sue will be there to teach the yoga, pranayama, meditation & will assist us in freeing voice & body through dance & song.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL WORKSHOPS ARE OPTIONAL & IF YOU PREFER TO SIMPLY ATTEND THE YOGA CLASSES & SPEND THE REST OF THE TIME ON LONG COUNTRY WALKS OR SEASIDE STROLLS THIS IS ABSOULUTLEY FINE.
