and optional SURF RETREAT > Byron Bay Australia
Investment: from $1,700 AUD
|
|
Come and immerse yourself in all that our yoga and surf
retreat has to offer. Escape the demands of everyday life, the
winter blues and enjoy pure yoga with Sunny Richards-Glasser. You'll have
plenty of time for reflection; sun-drenched swimming sessions in the
emerald ocean, where dolphins play. Or choose to meditate on the beautiful,
clean beaches of Byron Bay; nourish your body with delicious vegetarian meals
made from fresh local produce; and enjoy the views and sounds of the Pacific
Ocean outside your door. You will have fun meeting new friends, forming lasting
relationships and deepening existing ones, eating amazing foods, surfing if you
so desire and practicing yoga every day. Your senses will be awakened and nourished
by the sound of the Pacific Ocean, the sight of the brightly coloured lorikeets
and the song of the kookaburra and magpie. You'll feel a new connection to your
mind, body and spirit, and you will be fully renewed and restored. You'll also
learn how to cope with life's pressures and demands so that your body is not
constantly under stress after you leave us.
This includes vegetarian gourmet lunch and dinner, beach
front accommodation (6 nights), yoga lessons (twice daily), and a 1 hr massage
and santosha t’shirt, an ocean full of laughs and fun!

can allow a participant to do everything- For example, surfing one day and

package (yoga and massage) and of course still have time for some
relaxation!

New ONLINE TEACHER TRAINING
|
|
After
living in Japan for 7 years , having 3 children and a husband who had a very
demanding career, I understand the need for quality online Yoga Teacher
Training Courses to be offered and to be available for anyone who;
1.Simply
can not get to an onsite Yoga Training location,
2.Who
can not leave their family for weeks or months
3. For
those whom live in countries which have very little Yoga at
all.....
Thus
Santosha will be taking a step forward and providing this for those who desire
to be a Yoga Teacher but can not attend an onsite course for what ever reason.
Santosha’s
founding philosophy will remain in place meaning we believe the Yoga Teacher
Trainings should be accessible to the majority, not a minority and the the cost
to the student should be reflected by this “non greed “ approach. We will also
be donating a percentage of these fees to selected charities around the world
so as to create a better world.
