I love yoga. I also love food, Tarifa, understated luxury and a chilled vibe (with Spanish gin measures). So, I joined forces with my most inspirational (and fun) yoga teachers and planned a holiday.
Located in Spain’s most southern tip (the mountains in the picture are Morocco), Tarifa life revolves around the cafes, chiringuitos (beach shacks), kite and wind-surfing. We’re yet to meet anyone in Tarifa who either, hasn’t been before, or isn’t planning their return. It really is very special.
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
Yoga & Meditation
Two daily 90 minute yoga classes led through vinyasa with a more energising sequence in the morning and a softer practice come sunset. Optional daily pranayama and mediation. All classes with The Dream Team: inspirational Jivamukti yogis Molly Harragin and Stewart Heffernan.
A palace (almost)
Our own 19th century luxe ‘palacete’ Riad Lolita, in the heart of Tarifa’s tiny, yet lively, white-washed old town. THE place to be, with cafes, shops and the beach on our doorstep.
Wholesome Seduction
Wake-up green juices and energy bites, followed by post yoga brunch (lovingly prepared by yours truly). Plus a wholesomely seductive welcome supper around our kitchen table on the 21st (ditto).
Fiesta
Because no-where loves the night quite like Andalucia, we’ll sample sunset beach cervezas, flamenco and my pick of the town for the remaining three nights. Budget around £15 a head. Note: Cerveza’s often cheaper than water.
WHEN & HOW MUCH?
21st – 25th May bank holiday 2015. Yoga runs 22nd – 25th. Prices from £445 per person based on 2 sharing.
