Tailored Private Retreats Just for You
We offer private retreats all year outside of scheduled dates where you will receive undivided attention with our yoga and wellness teacher. Retreats can be tailored to include more meditation, yoga philosophy, mindfulness, nutrition and detox programs or perhaps you would like more time for trips in nature, learn to SCUBA dive or free time to relax around the pool and for spa treatments. Private retreats can be for any number of people and for as many days as you like. Let us know how we can create the perfect retreat just for you.
Your Teacher
Laura is passionate about sharing the gift of yoga and believes it can be practiced by everyone regardless of ability, to create a more peaceful and harmonious world within, and around us. Inspired by nature and her love for the ocean, she combines these with her yoga knowledge to develop a deeper sense of well being, connectedness and understanding. Her kind and non-judgmental approach makes people feel relaxed and comfortable. After 10 years of establishing her own practice, in 2014 Laura completed her teacher training at the Himalayan Iyengar Yoga Centre in India with Master Sharat Arora, and is also a certified Fly High Yoga Teacher, Reiki Master and Scuba Diving Instructor.
Detox
Yoga alone is amazing for improving the digestive system and for cleansing the organs but to get the maximum benefit (as well as making your practice easier and more enjoyable) we recommend avoiding heavy food and including lots of fresh and natural ingredients for an instant detox and boost.
Vegan and raw food are perfect for helping the body expel all of those additives and toxins that we are exposed to on a daily basis, whether through the food that we eat, the products that we put on our skin, or even the air that we breathe. We can prepare a fresh and nutritious cleansing menu that works for you. Detox water will be available throughout the day.
We will also provide you with a goodie bag of local natural products such as coconut oil, baking soda and citronella repellent that you can use if you want to ditch the chemical products for a deeper detox.
Before you get here
We have a strong philosophy towards environmentally friendly tourism here at Salaya; we use natural cleaning and hygiene products and a no single use plastic policy where possible. Please be mindful to buy ocean friendly products and avoid chemicals in the products you bring.
You will be given a short questionnaire after booking to let us know of any medical conditions, injuries, medications, allergies and yoga history etc. so we can tailor the retreat to your needs and safety - but please feel free to ask if you have concerns related to any of these before then.
We recommend no alcohol or smoking during the retreat, better to quit these a few weeks before you get here to avoid withdrawal symptoms. Likewise with caffeine if you drink a lot this can interfere with your meditation and relaxation.
Bring comfortable clothing, ideally made from natural fibres for yoga classes.
"Giving you the best Philippines holiday at one of the best luxury dive and yoga resorts is our job, and we love it!"
