Feedback
"It was a really enriching, nourishing and rewarding break away. I feel different in myself since the weekend. A stronger sense of inner knowing, self acceptance and contentment. I thoroughly enjoyed everything that was offered to us; the yoga, meditation, time alone to relax and reflect, the yummy organic wholesome food, bush walking, open fire, ch'ikung, tranquil environment and friendly people. A big thanks for encouraging me to come along. I am very keen to come again soon." -
Natasha Dalton, Brisbane
"Many thanks for a wonderful weekend. I came away relaxed yet fully charged. Not a bit of muscle pain - considering we practiced quite a few hours of yoga. Yoga truly is a great healing medium." -
