ASTRID HOLTE: One Week Immersion

september 28th-october 05th

 

Do not miss out on the opportunity to deepen your yoga practice by joining this holistic yoga holiday experience in the spectacular Mediterranean setting of Mallorca.

During this retreat, not only that you will be able to deepen your understanding on yoga itself, but you will also be able to learn how yoga can support you in your daily lives and the choices that you make.

We will take this opportunity to look at the inner alignment of the practice. How to to find space, both in our minds and body. How to manage your energy, enjoy a rhythm and presence that makes us able to use the practice as a tool for observation and meditation. We will work on finding focus, more ease and a steady mind through looking closer on breath, drishti and bandha.

This practice has great transforming qualities, and it only gets more interesting as we, over years of practice, move from the more external body to the subtle body. Whether you are beginners or experienced practitioners, everyone is welcomed, so come!

ABOUT ASTRID

Astrid Holte

Astrid was born and raised in the north of Norway and took her first Ashtanga class in 2003 when she was studying in Sydney, Australia. She was immediately inspired by this practice, which through years of practice has had a great influence on her life and and way of living. She is inspired with the freedom, growth and self discovery that we have an opportunity to explore through this method of yoga.

Astrid went to Mysore, India, to study with Sharath Jois for the first time in 2010 and has since made annual trips there to study and deepen her practice with her teacher. Astrid is a dedicated student and teacher of the Ashtanga Yoga method, she became authorized level 2 in 2013 and she has also assisted Sharathji twice in the Shala in Mysore.

Astrid was the owner and main teacher at Mysore Yoga Oslo, where for 7 years she built up and taught the Mysore program daily. After she closed the Shala in June 2020, she returned to Puro Yoga, where she teaches the morning Mysore program.

The finca offers a generous space with diverse terraces, swimming pool, barbeque area and chillout with sunbeds and hammocks under the trees in the fresh breeze and shade. A palm tree courtyard connects the main house to the terraces and the yoga shala which is fully equipped with yoga materials such as yoga mats, blankets, blocks, bolsters, belts and chairs for 25 people.
