We are excited to offer you this Kundalini Yoga Retreat – Coming Back to your Pure Essence where you can release your stress and replace it with inner
stillness, love and compassion. The retreat is a beautiful space to let go of
internal and external stresses, relax, meet like minded people, make new friends as well as go on beautiful breath taking coastal walks. Come on your own, with your partner or with friends. This retreat is available to anyone and you do not need to have experienced kundalini yoga to join us and enjoy it.

About Us
About Julie
Julie is passionate about wellness, self care, personal transformation and authenticity and this is evidenced in her career as a counsellor, kundalini yoga teacher, breathwork coach and healer. Julie has worked in the world of wellbeing for over 20 years and has always had a beautiful relationship with yoga. Having tried all styles of yoga over many, she fell in love with Kundalini yoga and thus decided to train as a teacher. Julie believes that through her own practice with Kundalini yoga she has experience much transformation. Julie is currently training to be a Ceremonial Facilitator and hopes to bring in some ceremonial work to the retreat as she will be qualified by then.
About Colin
Growing up in Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, Colin spent much of the time under the African sun engaged in physical activities: running, playing rugby, squash, tennis. The inevitable stress on his back led to occasional visits to an osteopath who, in 2001, recommended that he add a further activity as a counter-balance: Yoga. Colin could not have envisaged at that time the immense benefit that this would bring. His interest in yoga developed steadily and in October 2007 he returned from a life-changing retreat in Marrakech keen to further his knowledge, particularly the relationship between the body and the mind. In 2008 Colin did a transformative Kundalini Yoga teacher-training course and very quickly began to teach classes. In the sixteen years that he has been teaching yoga and meditation he has got to know himself so much better and found great joy in witnessing his students coping so much more calmly with life’s challenges in its
various shapes and forms.
