About your trip

Harmonize in the heart of nature on this week-long co-ed yoga retreat. Set in a serene, unplugged environment in the Spanish Pyrenees, this retreat will bring to life the sacred dance of Shiva and Shakti, Yin and Yang — the masculine and feminine energies. Restore your inner balance as we explore the interplay of strength and softness, stillness and movement, power and receptivity, through yoga, meditation, hiking, specialized workshops, embodiment practices, ritual, and immersion in the healing power of nature, free from the distractions of modern digital life.


Now, more than ever, it is valuable to really get to know our energetics — to understand the polarities of masculine & feminine, and to open our eyes to this ancient dance that is all around us and within us. This age-old wisdom holds the keys to health and resilience for both current and future generations. 


Join us in the sacred mountains and awaken your inner harmony…

What Makes This Retreat Special

In today’s rapidly evolving and digitally complex world, a simple retreat, or an act of drawing within oneself, is becoming more and more essential to ensure we do not pour from an empty cup. With the right environment and intention, we can not only rejuvenate and reinvigorate but reconnect with the peace that is our birthright — a peace that exists in every breath, every step, every meal, every moment.


“Tantra provides practical techniques applicable by men and women of every temperament and spiritual level, and aims at turning every action of life into an act of sadhana, or spiritual practice.”
Meditations from the Tantras, Swami Satyananda Saraswati


Tantra is the basis of the modern yoga we practice today. On this retreat, free of the modern over-sexualization of tantra, we will explore the play of Shiva & Shakti, expressed in all nature, including each of us. Step away from the noise of daily life to reconnect with the timeless wisdom and energy of the mountains. For one week, we’ll put down our screens and find spirit in every shape and form—through movement, meditation, creativity, and the natural world.


This retreat will offer a harmonious balance of yin and yang energies: from practicing dynamic yoga to restorative yoga, from hiking mountain trails to relaxing with a good book, from silent meals to sharing circles, and much more. We will take time to honour both the masculine and feminine through separate circles for men and women, working with our respective solar and lunar energies, both from the yogic and the Traditional Chinese Medicine perspectives.

The Place: Casa Cuadrau

Casa Cuadrau is an eco-friendly, sustainable retreat house nestled in the heart of the Pyrenees. Surrounded by stunning landscapes, it offers the perfect setting for spiritual immersion. Located in a majestic corner of Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park, within the Sobrarbe-Pyrenees Geopark, the region is one of the most biodiverse in Europe. The house sits in a small village called Vió, in an elevated valley with breathtaking mountain views in every direction. The house was lovingly built from an old ruin, using bioconstruction techniques and inspired by yoga principles. Casa Cuadrau exudes a warm, honest, and welcoming atmosphere, helping guests feel at home from the moment they arrive. With no Wi-Fi and limited cell service, the quiet environment fosters a deep sense of peace and calm. The spacious wooden yoga shala, cozy private and shared rooms, and tranquil outdoor terrace and garden all contribute to Casa Cuadrau’s serene ambiance.


One of the foundational pillars of this very special venue is its sustainability social project, in which are involved 4-5 volunteers who live and work in Casa Cuadrau for several months at a time. They will be welcome to join us in classes, workshops, and excursions whenever possible and will become part of our community as we will become a part of theirs.

About your organizer

Sensitive and curious, and always ready for an adventure, often in search of beauty, special places in nature, and large bodies of water to submerge myself in. I am a yoga facilitator with a deep love for movement, whether that's creative vinyasa sequences, embodiment dance, animal movement, or arm balance play. I studied yoga in North Sumatra, Indonesia with Flying Elephant Yoga school (200h) and in Costa Rica with Authentic Movements (300h). I cannot wait to dance with you!
