Join us in Ibiza during the Autumn and Winter season for a 3 Weeks stay fully immersed in nature.
They say 21 days is the time to create a new habit.. This is what we hope and the reason why we decided to offer long retreats during the most calm season on the island.
This is a retreat for a maximum of 3 guests. You will be staying with us at the farm and the program is all about Yoga, Nature, Horses, and other animals!
The program is spread out in 3 weeks time and you are goimg to have plemty of time to be on your own, explore the island or work remotely if you have to
Every room has a desk, a confortable chair and good wifi.
At the house we make sure the athmosphere is relaxed and silent enough to respect the ones who are studying or working.
About the activities we are going to do together:
At Casa Shakti, we run daily Yoga classes for residents and you will be joining us, in the most authentic Ibiza atmosphere, meeting the local people and living in an authentic farm.
The activities with the horses also take place at the farm with our own 5 horses: Beauty, Arachana, Apache, Sunny and... the pony shetland Rocco.
Elena will guide you to connect with them, through yoga and natural horsemanship.
You don't need to have any previous experience with horses to join this retreat.
The sessions will be adapted depending on your experience.
Hatha Yoga - Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 9.30 every week
Restorative Yoga - Thursday at 18.30
Alpaca Yoga - Saturday at 9.30
Natural Horsemanship - Tuesday at 11.30
Sessions are with Elena, founder of Casa Shakti, yoga teacher and owner of the horses at Casa Shakti.
“My YOGA with HORSES sessions are an opportunity to learn something more about horses, have fun and interact with an animal that you might not have an opportunity to spend time with in your day-to-day life.
Yoga means “union” and it’s a state that we reach by cultivating the habit of being “present”. These sessions are my way of encouraging connection with the horse while being present and doing exercises that are beneficial to both.
We will create a space of peace and presence, using movements, touch & conscious breathing.
During the sessions, I will also share useful information about how horses behave in nature and in a herd. This will help us to understand how they see and react to the world around them and make it easier and more natural to connect with them.
Although these sessions are not meant as therapy, I really believe that when we spend time with horses, we also learn something about ourselves, and this can have great and unexpected therapeutic benefits.
The sessions are always different and the outcome will vary depending on what you are carrying with you when entering the space of connection.”
During the autumn and winter seasons, the island shines with its most authentic beauty, free from the crowds and from mass tourism.
The weather is pleasant, often sunny and with temperatures up to 20 degrees.
In the evenings, we gather around the fire, as the island becomes quiet and the days draw to an end.
It is the perfect time of the year to do sports and spend time outdoors.
If you are brave enough, you can still have a swim in the beautiful crystal clear waters of the beaches nearby.
Choose this retreat if you wish to reconnect with NATURE and experience a close interaction with HORSES… and other animals!
