Yoga, Horse Wisdom & Pranayama

Near the beautiful beaches of the southwest coast of Portugal

September 2-6, 2024

Our Yoga, Horse Wisdom and & Pranayama Retreat is unique in every possible way. In this retreat, you will really come to understand many fundamental aspects of asana (yoga postures) and how they work to help YOU as an individual in your own practice.

You will also have your pulse taken daily, and you will also go deep into pranayama (breath work).  As you leave the retreat, you will be grounded and focused in this and have a better understanding of what is going on inside of you.

The exceptional part and addition to this retreat is the ability to engage and discover Horse Wisdom with Antje. She has been an expert in equine-assisted experiential learning for 12 years, a method that focuses on encounters with horses and personal growth and learning. Horses show us how we can reconnect with our authentic being and find access to our inner wisdom. They not only reflect unconscious blockages but also provide valuable feedback on our actions through their behaviour. 
Through the interaction with horses, people learn to break through ingrained thought patterns. This experience encourages us to take new steps in our own development.

This is an incredible opportunity to deepen, learn, rest, rejuvenate, enjoy and most of all relax. This retreat will take place at Quinta da Sernadinha a tranquil retreat space situated in a beautiful viewpoint in Cercal Do Alentejo.

You also have the benefit of adding additional services such as massages and reiki and an Ayurveda consult to allow yourself to be pampered. We can also arrange for you to surf at the beach or simply enjoy the endless views from the Hammocks – this is truly paradise.

The food will be vegetarian and whilst it is not fully gluten free we will provide some options. All our food will be cooked with love by our talented Chef.

We offer different types of ONSITE accommodation and OFFSITE / DAY PASSES as well. Please scroll down for the different options.
