Ashtanga Retreat on the French Atlantic coast
April 8 to 15, 2023
Join us for 7 nights in the historic beach community of Vielle Saint-Girons Plage. Uniquely situated on top of a sand dune in South France, you will have commanding views up and down the coastline.
The retreat includes five Mysore practices, one led primary, 5 afternoon clinics and plenty of time to rest and recharge.
The house we rented is a one minute walk to the beach and you can hear the ocean from the patio.
The coastline from Bayonne to Bordeaux is 150+ kilometers of beach and bordered by sand dunes and pine forests. If you walk up or down the coastline you’ll quickly find solitude.
Our hope is that the retreat will be restorative, healing and inspiring for everyone. We’re excited to share this special region with you and look forward to supporting you on the yoga journey.
If you have any questions please email: yoga@ashtangalanka.com
We hope to see you in April…!
