Caroline Wilkinson - Yoga Teacher

Yoga Holidays

Destination

This is a wonderful opportunity to experience yoga in the idyllic setting of a beautiful Spanish village. Deia is in the north-west of the island of Mallorca, situated between the mountains and the sea. It is about 40 minutes drive from Palma airport. See map.

The pebble cove, called the Cala, is about 25 minutes walk down through the old part of the village and through olive groves. The Cala is a lovely place to swim, relax or enjoy food and drink, while soaking up the sun and the scenery. Set aside some time for personal study and quiet reflection in Deia's peaceful surroundings.

Accommodation

A lovely traditional Spanish house in the centre of the village. All bedrooms have double beds and either look out over the terrace or the garden. Food for breakfast will be provided, so that you can prepare it in the way you prefer.

Yoga

There will be 2 hours of yoga each morning and 1.5 hours each evening, except on Wednesday evening. The morning sessions will be more dynamic, and will include energizing postures and breathing practices, whereas the evening sessions will focus on restorative practices, including gentle breathing, meditation and relaxation.

The style of teaching is Hatha yoga, which suits all ages and abilities, see the home page for details. Some experience of yoga is useful, although during the yoga sessions Caroline will give alternative postures or breathing practices where necessary.

Free time

Deia offers a choice of restaurants, bars and cafes serving delicious local food to suit all pockets within 5 minutes walking distance from the accommodation. There is also a restaurant and a bar down at the Cala.

There are a variety of good shops, a museum in the former home of the writer Robert Graves, an archaeological museum built into the rock, and galleries of art, pottery and crafts.
