​

We offer contemporary accommodation in the beautiful Village of Glasbury  – near, Hay on Wye, Mid Wales. 

a weekend of yoga, cold water swimming and a walking meditation; to help invigorate and set new intentions for the year ahead.

Flow Like a River ​

​

During this weekend we will be looking at the practice of open water swimming and its connection to your yoga practice. On your mat and in the water we will focus on awareness of movement, breathing, and mindfulness.

​

The thrill of plunging - or dipping a toe into water brings joy, confidence, adventure and friendship. It can wash away stress and sadness, pain and grief. Here water is a great healer, a place to feel gloriously, elementally alive and in touch with yourself, with other and with nature.

All swimming will be guided by experienced and qualified open water teachers Emilie Ricketts and Greg Hinks

​The swimming programme is structured for both beginners and experienced swimmers. Our teachers will guide you though the steps to help you climatise the water, using breathing and mindfulness teqniuqes.
