Easter Retreat on Lamu Island
March 21st to 28th, 2008

Come join us on the secluded island of Lamu for an unforgettable Easter retreat.

Ashtanga Yoga is an effective method of yoga practice, which is designed to restore the body to a radiant state of health and awaken insight into the true nature of reality. The Ashtanga practice includes postures as well as vinyasa(specific movements initiated by the breath, linking the postures,). The practice develops heat in the body, which purifies the muscles, organs and nadies(the energy channels underlying the physical form). Through a continuous refinement and deepening awareness of the breath, the mind is returned to a balanced, meditative state.

Throughout the retreat Caroline will guide the group into the depths of Ashtanga Yoga practice. The postures will be introduced sequentially, each posture preparing the body for the subsequent posture. The principles of Mulah Bandha(the root lock), Drishti(the gaze) and Oujaii Pranayama(the sound induced breath) will be applied throughout the practice. The retreat is open to everyone.

The retreat will take place at the majestic Fatuma's Tower.

About Fatuma's Tower:

Push open the painted wooden gates and enter a secluded, peaceful world. Tucked away in the sleepy Swahili fishing village of Shela, off the East African Coast is Fatuma's Tower. Deep green foliage of flowering trees speckle shade over the raked sandy pathways and tropical birds fly overhead. A light breeze carries the scent of the Indian Ocean as the sounds of the village fade away.

Meticulously restored in 1998, the historic tower house has six bedrooms and there are two further cottages within the grounds providing accommodation to suit individuals, families and small groups. Fatuma's Tower is furnished with hand picked antiques and local fabrics in a simple yet elegant style, which recreates the atmosphere of a fine Swahili house. No two rooms are the same and the cool, airy suites retain an informal feel while day beds and shaded balconies throughout the house provide comfortable spaces for relaxing and enjoying your time. more ...
