By popular demand, we are running two Mother & Daughter weekend yoga retreats this year at Peppers Salt Resort & Spa with The Spa at Salt on the North Coast of New South Wales. Sisters, aunties, grandmothers and friends are also welcome!
Designed especially to suit beginners and intermediate levels of experience, the theme of each retreat varies to suit the changing needs of the seasons according to Ryoho Therapy.
Based on the teachings of my renowned teachers, Andzej Gospodarczyk and Lisa Foster, Ryoho yoga combines traditional Indian Hatha yoga with the principles of Yin and Yang, the Five Element Theory and the healing arts of China and Japan. In addressing specific conditions through yoga and food advise, it is also efficient and effective in dealing with conditions ranging from back and neck pain to women’s health issues, weight control, joint problems, stress, anxiety, respiratory and circulatory problems.
My aim in creating these retreats with Peppers and The Spa at Salt was to create a yoga escape that is approachable, both financially and in terms of accessibility of the program – something that sits between the existing offerings of intense, strict and often expensive health retreats and, at the other end of the scale, the more hippie, bunk-style intense yoga camps which aren’t for everyone.
The weekend yoga escape at Peppers Salt Resort & Spa isn’t a yoga ‘boot camp’ and we don’t have any ‘rules’… we instead provide a platform for attendees to get as much as they want out of the weekend. And there’s lots of time for mother and daughter bonding!
Priced from $599* per person (twin/ double share), the all-inclusive escape includes two nights accommodation, full buffet breakfast daily, five Ryoho yoga and meditation classes, a yoga mat, a 50-minute spa treatment at The Spa at Salt, wholesome meals prepared by Peppers Salt Resort & Spa’s onsite restaurant, Season, full use of resort leisure facilities and unlimited in-room movies.
Non-residential packages are available from $432* per person including all yoga classes, mat, Spa treatment and meals.
2014 Dates:
23 – 25 May – Mother & Daughter Retreat: Women’s health, sugar cravings, stress release and core strength.
When guests aren’t striking a pose, they can step out into nature and enjoy a network of beachside walking and bicycle tracks, unspoilt surf beaches, the resort’s large tropical beach lagoon pool, or head to The Spa at Salt for a wide range of soul soothing spa treatments.
Peppers Salt Resort & Spa is located just 15 minutes from Gold Coast Airport, 60 minutes from Ballina Airport and less than 90 minutes drive from Brisbane.
