2 Day Yoga & Healing Retreat
2 Day Yoga & Healing Retreat
Follow your safari or Kilimamjaro trek with a one or two day yoga retreat at a beautiful lodge in one of Tanzania’s tribal villages. Each day will include 1-2 restorative or vinyasa yoga classes, one mindfulness or meditation class, and a personalized herbal healing session led by local herbalists. You can also choose from our many daily excursions, but are also welcome to find relaxation by the pool, or curled up in the hammock with a good book.
Sample Itinerary:
Evening 1: Your driver will drop you off at the accommodation of your choice and you will enjoy dinner and an evening yin yoga class.
Day 1: Since you’ve been waking early on safari or the mountain, you can rise when you’re ready and begin your day with a soulful, reflective yoga class that will help you work out all the kinks in your body. Your breakfast will be ready as soon as class is over and you can enjoy a mindful meal. After breakfast we will practice a short walking meditation to acquaint you with the lodge.
