YOGA HOLIDAY
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
7 days Yoga Holiday
-
Discover how your whole being can be transformed during a Restorative Alignment retreat in the Japanese countryside of Okayama, in a little village nestled in the middle of the mountains.
-
yoga classes with an internationally established teacher and a tour with a licensed guide with extensive knowledge of the local area (both in English)
-
For 6 , you’ll enjoy the guidance and company of Olivier and his team, who will share their knowledge with you, teaching from the heart, allowing you to relax and strengthen.
-
Approaching yoga practice with relaxation will release tension acquired from poor postural habits, and using therapeutic tools that mobilise the spine into a more natural and correct body posture will make you feel light and energized.
-
Your day will start with yoga practice and a nutritious breakfast. Then, we will explore for 3 - 4 hours, focusing on off-the-beaten-path locations and authentic experiences. Some planned activities include a tea plantation, a castle ruin with 1,000 cherry trees, a restaurant hidden in the woods, and a Japanese sand dune.
-
With our healing program (yoga, hot spring baths, sound healing, and nutritious vegetarian/vegan food), we hope to provide you with many moments of going deeper, sinking, and feeling grounded as you immerse yourself in Japanese countryside life.
-
With our tour, we hope to have a lot of fun together, eat well, and discover some local gems. Our B&B will be your home away from home. You won’t have your own rooms (there are two to a room), but there should be plenty of space with two lounges, an outdoor deck, and a hammock (sorry, it's probably still a bit cold in March.)

Our eco B&B provides fresh vegan/vegetarian breakfast and artisan tours in English.
It is situated in Nishiawakura Village, Okayama, surrounded by beautiful mountains bordering on Tottori and Hyogo Prefectures. Our place is suitable for travellers looking for "off-the-beaten-path," kind of unique opportunities away from the cities. Our Village is an open and friendly community where you can truly appreciate the best of what each season has to offer. Meeting local craftsmen is one of the highlights for many of our guests (Tours available by a licensed guide, that is me!). For families, playing in the river nearby (if you are lucky, you might see a salamander!), finding freshwater crabs in the stream running through our property, walking in the woods and making origami with us has been fun and exciting activities.
