Details

A Space In Time Landing in yourself through movement, rest, and inner listening 24th - 30th April 2027 Santillian Retreat (35 mins from Malaga airport) There are places we go to do more. And then there are places that invite us to slow down enough to truly arrive. This retreat is a pause from the pace of everyday life, an opportunity to step out of doing, and into a different relationship with time. Here, moments are not something to move through, but something to inhabit. Through a thoughtful blend of somatic practices, Hatha and Yin yoga, TRE (Tension Release Exercises), breath and awareness, we create space for a slower, more spacious way of being. Set within the sunlit beauty of an expansive Andalusian cortijo, with gardens overlooking the valley and the Mediterranean Sea, the retreat offers space to rest, to wander, and to be. With indoor and outdoor practice spaces, a saltwater pool, and quiet corners for reflection, The environment itself becomes part of the experience.

Schedule

Our days will follow the unfolding journey through the body and its rivers of fascia Day 1 — Earth — Feet & legs — arriving into support, landing into the ground of being here Day 2 — Water — Pelvis & hips — softening into flow, allowing movement to return Day 3 — Fire — Spine & core — sensing direction, and the body organising from within Day 4 — Air — Shoulders & breath — opening into space, carried by the breath Day 5 — Space — Neck & head — widening perspective, allowing more room inside Day 6 — Integration — The whole body — letting it all come together, in your own way

Testimonials

info

I loved the way you designed the course to move through the chakras, starting with the legs and moving up. The way you paired the questions with the chakras was also great. I loved that they were questions as opposed to statement, and that you gave us several options. Often all three questions worked together for me and helped to open something up. It made for a wonderful movement between the physical/ location in the body to the verbal/ idea level. I also loved the directions you gave about how to redirect the attention to the physical while answering the questions rather than staying in the head. I think I was doing that already, but it reinforced that instinct, confirmed that I was in sync with the underlying values of the course, and I think helped with my partners. Also, as you know, this part of the course was instrumental in the powerful release that happened for me when we were paired together. I also thought the amount was the perfect balance between the yoga/physical and the verbal— at least for me. I wouldn’t have wanted more verbal—- just that little break in between the two yoga sessions was great

I've been practising Yoga for many years and have been to workshops and retreats by a number of well known yoga teachers in London but nothings compares to Halina’s approach which is genuine, authentic, honest and a true representation of what Yoga is for her. She somehow manages to allow us to find our own individual sense of boundaries, limits and alignment whilst still holding us all in a space of acceptance. Thank you so much.

"I've been enjoying Halina's classes regularly for a few years now and I am so glad I found her! Halina has a unique gift which makes everyone who attends her classes feel welcome and nurtured. Whatever your age and ability her style of instruction encourages you to explore the strengths and limitations of your own body in a completely supported and relaxed atmosphere. Thanks to Halina I now understand and respect my body better and feel more supple, energised and also more relaxed than I have ever done. Whatever your reasons for finding yoga I cannot recommend Halina and The Yoga Tree highly enough! Enjoy your journey."

"Halina is a caring, open, genuine, fun and deeply aware teacher and human being! She is a very knowledgable teacher, and is sensitive to the needs of all the members of the group. Having not practised for a couple of years, taking part in her workshop was a wonderful experience. Halina drew attention to the movements and experiences of parts of the body, the breath and the mind, revealing how these entities are inextricably linked and affect one another. She encourages a practice and a relationship with yoga which is compassionate and flexible, facilitating a gentle, yet fully intentioned feeling into and 'being' in each asana in a way that works in your own body. Through this approach, Halina taught me a way not only to listen to, sit with, and be in my body in difficult asanas, but also a way to respond to difficult emotions, thoughts, and sufferings with the same gentle and compassionate awareness.'
