Our trip to Iceland was truly unforgettable. We thoroughly enjoyed the Eird retreat location. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, the food was divine, and the yoga sessions were a perfect start to our days. Sybil and Nicole created a warm and inviting atmosphere, as always, for us to completely relax and enjoy each other's company. Seeing the Northern Lights was the cherry on top of a perfect trip!

This was a wonderful trip. Iceland is a world apart from living in New England, with a beauty all its own. The vast flatlands with many grazing animals, the stark mountain ridges, crisp lakes, Northern Iights, simple clean architecture of buildings, and friendly inhabitants. The facility we were in was comfortable with a concern for environmental protection. So much to see and do!

Incredible experience - the yoga is top notch led by an amazing and gifted teacher...all with the backdrop of the most dramatic landscape. It was a mind explosion all around! The food was exceptional and the accommodations were clean and comfortable. The morning yoga schedule provided opportunities for travel and exploration in the afternoons. The whole trip was an 10/10!

Thoroughly enjoyed this lovely yoga retreat with wonderful teachers in the Catskills! Silent G Farm was relaxing and beautiful, allowing for complete immersion into all of the classes and activities that were offered. The surrounding area was great for outdoor walks and exploring. In addition, we were treated to amazing meals that were both delicious and plentiful. The timing of this retreat was perfect and I would love to see it happen again in the future!
