Beyond the Asana: Two week retreat in Goa, India
|
| |
This 14-day retreat is a unique opportunity for those looking to deepen and broaden their yoga practice. Working intensely on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level the retreat aims to assist the practitioner in the transformative experience of observing, accepting and letting go.
THE DAILY PROGRAMME
Each day will consist of a combination of asana, pranayama, meditation, mantras, bhajans (spiritual songs) mouna (the powerful practice of silence) talks on yoga and various creative workshops. This full and varied programme allows participants the experience of recognising the power of yoga beyond the asana and moving towards a more authentic relationship with themselves and others.
Due to the unique nature of this retreat it is only possible to do the full two weeks and to be resident at the Satsanga Retreat. There may be a few non-residential places available in exceptional circumstances.
For a sample programme of this 14-day retreat, please visit Emil's website. |

WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SAID ABOUT PREVIOUS RETREATS
"The two week retreat I did with Sue and Emil was one of the best things I've ever done. I've dabbled with yoga at home, but I wanted a better understanding of it and I hoped that the retreat would provide me with that. It did - and more, for I also made many friends from it too. Sue and Emile are brilliant teachers - they are so passionate about their subjects that you cannot help but be swept up in it. What we learnt made me feel better physically, emotionally and spiritually - and I left the retreat feeling amazing. I will definitely be returning next year to do it all over again!"
Catherine Hagan - T.V. producer
"The retreat with Sue and Emil was full of fun, laughter, quietness and movement. I can't imagine how either of them could have given more of themselves. They compliment each other totally - Emil with the spiritual philosophy and Sue with her crazy humour and movement background. Great!"
Rachel Hull - Yoga Teacher
"I was apprehensive before I went as I had never been to India before and I was travelling alone. I should not have worried. The place was very lovely and everyone was very friendly and welcoming. The retreat itself was challenging, both physcially and spiritually but very rewarding. I found out some more about myself and also found out that there is still an awful lot to discover. Both Emil and Sue were extremely approachable and you just knew that they wanted everyone on the retreat to get the most out of it. I was left feeling there is so much more to discover and wishing there was another week to go."
Liz Bohan - Business Administrator
"I found that I had gained motivation, inspiration and confidence in my practice on a much deeper level than I thought possible, partly the result of getting a whole new perspective on yoga and on the experience of my own body. I spent a week on the beach afterwards on my own and have never felt so at peace with myself. It was extraordinary."
Sally - Artist
