What is it what you are looking for? What do you seek? What are you hungry for in each and every moment? What’s the deepest longing of your soul?
In our modern life, we often find ourselves stuck in routines and superficial longings and cravings. They give us a structure and fulfill us for the moment. Nevertheless, many of us feel empty in this cycle or simply have this urge to live life deeply, to explore the fullness, vastness and wideness of what this beautiful life has to offer. The wide palette of yogic tools offers a true vastness – no matter if practiced in a traditional or modern way – the different facets of the practice guide us towards fullness!
This 5 day Retreat is an immersion for all those who are ready to experience the diverse facets of yoga and explore yoga and healing on all levels, physically, mentally, spiritually.
Be ready to try something new: taste it, digest it, taste more, immerse into it and enjoy the unfolding of the practice inside of you. The new bits and pieces of your practice are your personal take-away from the retreat. Something that you can always pick and enjoy again!
Between our rich program there will be enough space for shared meals and freetime to enjoy the beach which is walking distance from our venue.
In the beautiful oceanfront yogashala overlooking the sea, we offer two daily yoga classes (traditional hatha, modern vinyasa, yin yoga and intuitive flow) as well as various workshops (Thai Yoga massage, yoga philosophy, acroyoga and kirtan accompanied by live violin and harmonium).
If you come from a more traditional approach, let us explore this further and be amazed how you can deepen your practice by practicing together in an uplifting, inspiring group and getting in touch with modern yoga tools to add to your practice. It’s interesting to be part of yogic evolution and enhance your own practice and knowledge according to your personal needs.
If you consider yourself more like the modern feelgood-yogi it will be very enriching for you to go back to the roots and feel and understand why and how the tradition still has so much to offer that serves our modern body, mind and spirit!
Join us in our coastal home in sunkissed Casais de S. Lourenço close to Ericeira, Portugal.
We will be practicing in an open Yogashala overlooking the ocean. We will enjoy community during healthy vegan, organic fresh meals, sharing circles and exploration time on the beach or elsewhere in wild nature. There is enough time and space to connect to others and to yourself.
We are pouring a lot of love, detail and refinement into the creation of this Retreat, even thinking about sharing the magic that we are putting together for you fills us with so much joy and excitement!

WHO IS OFFERING THE RETREAT?
Julia is a passionate international yoga teacher who considers Yoga as an amazing tool to (re-)connect us to our intuition and the inner state of pure love. If she would describe her yoga approach in only one word she would choose: LISTEN. This precious art of listening is what she practices and teaches through various different modern yoga styles like her creative, intuitive Vinyasa flows, Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Acro Yoga and other practices of mindfulness such as meditation and Thai Yoga Massage. Julia's teaching style is marked by creativity, playful power and states of deep relaxation. She is in love with details and keen on facilitating holistic experiences that involve creative body explorations and individual freedom. She enjoys bringing people together by creating a space for mutual support, ease and growth. In her classes, she plays with her voice by finding metaphors, poetic analogies and her violin sounds as well as hands-on-adjustments to accompany you on your journey. After completing her first Vinyasa yoga teacher training in Bali, she immersed into different other trainings and workshops close and far so that you can be sure that she is going to inspire you with interesting hand-picked knowledge from different schools and styles. Julia spent the last years teaching in retreats, workshops, yoga teacher trainings social projects and festivals around the world. Her passion became her fulltime and full-hearted business which means that besides her own company jupieyoga that she founded to bring joy to the world through yoga, she works as an educator at balance yoga institute and also co-found her own yogaacademy at HEAL.FEEL.LEAD where she offers 200h and soon also 300h yogateachertrainings, workshops and seminars.

Jagadambika Alisa lives and shares the traditional paths of Yoga, its practice and philosophy in programs worldwide and holds space for the online community: The Bhakti Family which supports individuals on their recognition of their divine nature.
Discovering the spiritual path during her degree in Mathematics, she went to India to learn about Yoga. Having found many answers to her longing for a deeper meaning, ever since her teacher training in the Sivananda Ashram in Neyyar Dam (Kerala - India) in 2014, she explores Self discovery and shares her knowledge with love and full attention. Over the last years Jagadambika lived in Germany, Mexico and ashrams in different locations including the Bahamas, Colombia and New York, studying and teaching Yoga Philosophy and how to invite divinity into our daily life. Inspired by her personal practice and spiritual guidance, she shares Yoga and Kirtan wherever she goes. Mantra Music, Invocation, Música Medicina and the practice of deep listening influence her sound creations, in which she uses the voice as an instrument to free oneself from any limiting condition and detach from a personified identity. Her channeled melodies enable the receptive listener to explore heart openings and receive guidance into shapeless silence. Through teaching how to play the harmonium worldwide, she has encouraged many to share the power of Bhakti Yoga, the path of love and devotion, in their local communities and homes . |
