Past retreats

Bali Retreat: 29 July – 4 August 2024

The second Yoga Gem retreat/holiday took place at Alam Shanti in Ubud, Bali.

The setting was everything I had hoped it to be – small, intimate, traditional, beautifully landscaped amid rice fields and a jungle escarpment with ponds around the premises full of blooming lotus flowers and hilarious sounding croaking toads!. The yoga shala was outstanding with lovely garden views and wonderful birdsong that just made each and every practice a joy and a gift… so very tasteful, spacious and private. Over and above, the staff were truly delightful - professional but fun and by day 2 knew everyone by their Christian names - always going out of their way to make our week truly memorable.

Rarotonga Retreat: September 2023

September 2023 saw 14 of us (yogi’s and friends/clip ons 😊) head for Rarotonga on an exploratory yoga retreat/holiday……would this work and would it be something The Yoga Gem would offer students going forward.

Our practices included chanting and partner yoga work. It was a truly humbling experience for me to see the commitment of the yogi’s on tour, the openness to trying new things, the chanting and daily reciting of the invocation.
