During this retreat, you will cover a range of topics, including an intensive practice of all yoga asanas, different styles of yoga like Hatha, Yin, and Vinyasa, fluid movement with synchronized breathing, the opportunity to choose your preferred style of yoga, yoga Nidra, and evening meditation sessions.
