VENUE & ACCOMMODATION
​
This 6 day 5 night residential retreat will be held at the very special Santillan Center, in Malaga Spain. Set in a secluded rural area, Santillan is an Andalusian paradise. A farm of 30,000 sq meters, it’s located in the peaceful countryside, surrounded by the silence of the mountain and with wonderful sea views, and yet is conveniently only 20 minutes from Malaga airport.

With 20 individually styled rooms, paying special attention to color, harmony and balance with the environment. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms, air-conditioning, and each comes with a private outdoor space, either veranda or terrace, with lovely views of the gardens, surrounding hills or down the valley to the sea.
This event is carefully designed to support an in-depth learning environment, for personal growth. Having experienced Restorative yoga and the value of rest and silence, it is invaluable to further this practice within a residential retreat. This is a rare opportunity to offer oneself permission for personal process and integration.
