Yoga Retreats in Croatia

Croatia
2009

Following on from an enjoyable retreat week in September 2008 further courses will be held in the village of Dol on the beautiful island of Hvar in Summer 2009. Dates will be confirmed nearer the time.

Accomodation is available in the village of Dol and nearby Stari Grad or Jelsa. The Yoga classes are held in Dol.

Classes

The classes are limited to small groups to ensure maximum personal attention. There are two classes each day, morning and evening. One of the classes is generally a led and the other is working towards self practice, allowing the teacher to adjust and advise whilst students work at their own pace, thereby also developing the memory and self confidence to continue practice on their own after returning home.

Cost

2008 retreat - one weeks Yoga tuition £300, not including accomodation and flights.

The Island

Hvar is on the Dalmatian coast, a short ferry from Split. In the day time and evenings you will have time between classes to explore the beaches, hills, villages and towns of Stari Grad and Hvar. The island is richly fertile and depending on the season you will be able to taste the locally produced grapes, almonds, oranges, figs, pomegranates, peppers, tomatoes, cheese and wine. Lavendar is also grown locally and oils can be bought in the markets. In the evenings you may wish to visit the lively Hvar town or the quieter Stari Grad or relax and enjoy the beautiful views.

Getting Around

In Stari Grad you will be able to hire bicylces, scooters and cars if you wish to explore the island further,
