BOOKING

IS THIS RETREAT RIGHT FOR ME?

This retreat is open to all levels of practice. Yoga classes are offered daily, but they are not mandatory and nor are the excursions or beach days.

This retreat is for EVERYONE. If you want to relax and chill and do nothing, do so. We want to keep a relaxed environment for all to enjoy their time away.

So TREAT yourself or make your next birthday present a ‘no brainer’ for your significant other. Ask them to contribute toward a week for you to re-balance and heal yourself.

You work hard all year long − give yourself a much deserved week to renew yourself with yoga, beach, sunshine, friends and delicious food that someone else cooks!

To book your space, please email Jennifer at info@yogabalance.lu or What’sApp +352 621 406 088. It is possible to pay a deposit of only 30% by bank transfer to secure your booking, then the remaining 70% is due on 01.04.24. If you would like to make the full payment now, it is appreciated.

Cancellation policy: A refund minus 100€ fee is only given when space can be filled. Find someone to take your place and no fee. If desired, you can obtain Travel Insurance via your insurance agent.

Hope you will join me for this amazing week.

Namaste ,
