Vinyasa Flow Yoga is a dynamic and physically more challenging style of yoga that emphasises on fluid movement and breath control. In a typical Vinyasa Flow class, we will move through a sequence of movements in a continuous, flowing way, synchronised to the breath.

The word "vinyasa" comes from the Sanskrit term nyasa, meaning "to place," and the prefix vi, meaning "in a special way." Vinyasa Flows then emphasises on the connection between breath and movement, with each inhale or exhale initiating a particular movement or sequence of movements, to place the body in a specific way with each breath.

Each class will be different and the focus can lie on different body parts, such as hips or shoulders, or a particular movement, like circles or backbends. The focus can also be to keep a mindset of fluidity or stability. But in each class we will move through a variety of poses, including sun salutations, standing and balancing poses aiming to get the whole body involved and energised.

Moving faster and having to work a little bit harder with the body can both be really fun and a great way to calm the mind down. Vinyasa yoga can offer a great respite or act as a balancing tonic if we are living a life where there is a lot of focus on thinking and less on physical movement.

This day will be a sanctuary for self-care, renewal, and setting intentions for the new season, allowing you to step into winter feeling balanced, rested, and restored.

As the Winter Solstice marks the return of the light, we gather to celebrate this season of hope, renewal, and the quiet energy of life waiting to unfold. This special day retreat is designed to inspire these qualities within ourselves—a time to pause, release, and nurture the possibilities of the year ahead.

The day is crafted to offer profound self-care through nourishing movement, mindful breathing, and deeply relaxing practices. Warming and nurturing us from the inside out, we’ll start with breathwork and meditation to calm the mind, followed by a grounding yoga practice to warm and nourish the body and ease the mind, focusing on gentle movement, stillness, and breath to release tension and invite calm. We’ll enjoy warming and nurturing lunch (included in the price) together.

The afternoon includes a soothing sauna, wild spa and the option to cool down with a wild swim or cold shower. Finishing the day off with restorative yoga, and a deeply restful yoga nidra session to let go of what no longer serves us. Through ritual and intention-setting, we’ll invite in what feels light and meaningful for the coming season.

You’ll leave feeling lighter, brighter, and full of life, with insights into moving well, unwinding deeply, and embracing a healthy, joyful way of being. This day is suitable for all levels, from beginners to seasoned yogis, with individual support throughout.

Spaces are limited to ensure plenty of personal attention. This is a fully inclusive day—simply show up for yourself, ready to relax and renew. Lunch, snacks, tea, and all activities are provided, so you can fully enjoy each moment of this restorative retreat.
