Sky and Earth Yoga Retreats
Yoga beyond the mat, by the sea
Yoga at Sky and Earth is presented as a way to build body awareness and self-connection that carries beyond the mat. Retreats are described at Villa Serena, an eco-friendly hotel in Las Galeras, where oceanfront terraces, tropical gardens and the sound of nearby waves set a slower pace between practice and time to explore. The hotel has a pool, hot tub, spa and restaurant serving fresh meals with local ingredients; vegetarian, vegan and other dietary preferences can be accommodated by arrangement. The yoga tradition and retreat schedule are not defined, so the style and daily rhythm may vary by stay. There is an important travel detail to settle before making plans: the listed address is in Colorado Springs, while the retreat venue and airport guidance point to the Dominican Republic. Confirm the actual location, dates and transport arrangements with the organizer before booking flights.
