Yoga & Martial Arts Retreat Tulbagh

ABOUT

ALIGN WELLNESS RETREAT

Align is an opportunity for you to create more space in your life through practices of yoga, mindfulness, and martial arts. It is an investment in your self-care and an opportunity to focus on well-being, connect with others, and learn new self-expression practices.

This time is about you, as you will be given the tools to become your alchemist. Yoga practices taken from the Himalayan Kriya yoga style focus on spiritual alignment through the energetic system using breathwork, meditation, and somatic movement. Martial arts class is beginner-friendly and aimed at empowering you to feel strong, grounded, and dignified. This retreat is based on the practices of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and positive psychology so you are leaving with a newfound sense of calm and joy to weave into your daily life.

LOCATION:

Nestled in a bowl of magnificent mountains and a serene valley, the town of Tulbagh is just a scenic 90-minute drive from Cape Town, making it an ideal destination for a weekend getaway. The valley also serves as an excellent base for exploring the Cape Winelands and surrounding areas.

There is no better setting to retreat for a deeply healing experience. Step into the oasis of the Guinevere guest farm, a private lifestyle villa just under one and a half hours from Cape Town International Airport (CPT) surrounded by breathtaking mountains, natural swimming spots, and walking trails. This is a perfect location to retreat, rest, and realign.
