Spring Yoga Retreat with Yoga Avenue 27th-29th March 2020

Yoga Avenue, based in Clevedon, near Bristol, have chosen to host their first weekend retreat here at Tall Johns House and we are very excited to be welcoming them here.

In our fast paced, results driven world the practice of yoga offers tools to help us find our way back to a sense of balance within. Whether you are an experienced yogi, attend a local class occasionally or are just perhaps curious; a yoga retreat is a perfect opportunity to experience what yoga can offer to you whilst sharing fun and connection with a group of like-minded people.

"The moment we drove up to Tall John's I just knew it had exactly what I was looking for in a retreat venue. Meeting Liza and being shown around the beautiful accommodation, barn and grounds only served to confirm my initial gut instinct and I'm thrilled to be offering this weekend escape of yoga, connection, nourishment and nature here at Tall Johns, says Emma Gurhy.

The retreat is run by Emma, a London-trained 500 hour full-time hatha and vinyasa yoga teacher who runs classes and workshops from her home studio in Clevedon. She has taught in studios in Bristol, in Europe for Sardinia Yoga and assisted at yoga events in London and Newcastle. This retreat will provide 2 evening and 2 morning asana and meditation practices, both held in the light-filled barn and suitable for all levels of experience and ability. All mats and props will be provided. Guests arriving from 3pm on Friday, will enjoy a teatime treat of homemade cakes, tea or coffee and have time to settle in before the opening circle and evening yin and meditation class.

Vegetarian suppers and substantial breakfast created by the in-house chef are included in the retreat price and on the Saturday there is the opportunity to explore the countryside with a walk around the lake and to have lunch at a lovely pub in the nearby village. For guests who wish to pamper themselves perhaps just a little more, a local holistic therapist can provide on-site treatments which can be pre-booked. Single and twin rooms are available with prices starting from just £365 per person.
