About this trip

Relax, restore, and rejuvenate on the breathtaking islands of French Polynesia. This 6-day,  5-night retreat will focus on Ayurveda and Yoga. Ayurveda is an ancient, holistic, whole body science from India, focusing on self healing.  Each morning rise with the sun and enjoy an invigorating Ayurvedic based yoga practice combining vinyasa flow, hatha, and ashtanga. Spend your day soaking up the sun, snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, exploring the island by bike, or relaxing.   One night, we go to see the traditional Tahitian dance spectacular.  Group afternoon activities will include 2 Ayurveda workshops, restorative/yin yoga, and guided meditation.  Ideas and concepts of Ayurveda will be explained throughout the week in an easy to use way.  Yoga teachers will receive 30 hours of Continuing Education with Yoga Alliance in the area of Ayurveda.  At the end of the week, you will walk away feeling more rejuvenated in the mind, body and spirit and the knowledge to maintain this in your daily life.


Please note:   This retreat is located on the island of Moorea in French Polynesia. We recommend to fly into Faa'a, Tahiti International Airport (PPT).   Then, you can take the public ferry from Tahiti to Moorea.
