Warm welcome to a balancing and nourishing weekend just an hour outside of Oslo. Morning vinyasa yoga classes, afternoon slow/yin style classes, Spring Revival: the Workshop - as well as a magical Mystica-style Beltane fire ceremony, sauna, swimming in the lake for the brave ones, cozy meals and time for yourself to enjoy the stillness of nature
The energy is shifting, nature is blooming and the sun is warming our faces. It’s as if we all are waking up again from a deep sleep! We might start to feel more energized, more social and eager to do more, and forget the importance of rest and digest. This retreat was born to help you maintain that inner fire, without burning out.
We want to help you to connect with your energy centers and learn how to balance it, so that you can use your energy in a more sustainable way this season.
We invite you to boost your active yang energy, with lots of fire and sweat in the morning classes, and we also want you to experience the importance of winding down into yin and restorative, the more cooling energies.
We have incorporated Spring Revival: the workshop into this weekend as well: 2,5 hrs of pure energy
On Saturday we celebrate Beltane Mystica-style - the fire festival marking the halfway between spring equinox and summer solstice. You can expect bonfire, fire ceremony, ceremonial cacao and dance to welcome spring and soon-to-be summer.
This is an intimate and exclusive retreat with only 12 spots,
we are so excited to gather a small group for a magical weekend together.
