Guest Teacher Program

Sanctuary to the Soul Retreat

with Rosemary Booker and Brigitte Riley
September 10-20, 2022

About The Retreat

This yoga retreat will offer you the opportunity to practice yoga in-depth with experienced, knowledgeable and inspirational teachers who both share a passion, not only for yoga but for personal growth.

Each session will be carefully themed, planned and structured so that we educate and provide a specific experience in all aspects of practice, from meditation, pranayama and asana. At each class, one of us will be teaching whilst the other, guides and assists you to practice at your own unique level.

At each session, you will be encouraged to not only practice the physical postures but also to inquire a deeper sense of intimacy with self.  Attracting abundance, authenticity, acceptance, community, nurturing and loving self, as well as simplicity will be topics that we explore in more detail over the course of the 10 days.

On this retreat there will also be plenty of down time for treatments, excursions, adventures and fun. Our aim is for you to develop and evolve both your yoga practice and your life.

Yoga Intermediate Practice Sessions

Mornings

7.30 am – 9.30am.

This class will begin with meditation followed by an alignment based vinyasa flow class taught by either Rosemary or Brigitte with the other assisting. We will then have a hearty breakfast/brunch buffet.

Evenings

5.00 pm – 6.30pm

This class is for all levels of yogi including beginners. You can expect all aspects of yoga, such as restorative yoga, yin yoga, meditation, satya somatics yoga, technique, therapeutic work, yoga nidra and breath work. 

Yoga Basics Class

Mornings

7.30 am – 9.30am

We are aware that this wonderful holiday may attract couples or friends, whereby one half is a beginner yogi, or would prefer to practice at a more basic level. Whilst the price of the holiday will remain the same to yogi’s and non-yogis alike, we are therefore offering ‘yoga basics’ classes every morning. These classes will be taught by Brian Riley (Brigitte’s husband) and are optional.
