YogaMea School’s Yoga Retreats inspire joy in the soul and an incomparable lightness of being. There is nothing better you can do for yourself than to give yourself a yoga retreat to get these benefits and help you relax, replenish and rejuvenate your being.
During your Yoga Retreat with YogaMea School in Misano Adriatico, Italy, you will take part in two daily yoga classes. Between classes you can spend your free time as you like, with numerous options. We will even help you with some options. Or, you may simply chose to relax on the beach, under the sun and accentuate your magnificent tan.
Our retreats are exquisitely tailored to provide you with a healthy balance between group activities and solo free time to relax, read a book, take a stroll along the beach, receive a massage, meditate, journal, etc. Whatever your heart desires. Built in free time, and the sweet spaciousness that accompanies it, are at the core of all our retreats.
The benefits of studying Yoga in Italy are numerous. The foremost reason for coming here is everyone here at YogaMea School is here for the same reason and you instantly share a passion in common. When you meet new people under typical circumstances, you can usually find something in common; you are from the same town, work in the same profession, have similar hobbies, kids go to school together, house is in the same neighborhood, etc.
For most yoga aspirants at YogaMea School, yoga is a common passion; and sharing a passion creates unbreakable bonds. Bonds that span oceans, nations, cultures, religions, age, gender and sometimes last a lifetime… That is why there are tear-filled goodbyes at the end of each course at YogaMea School. People have shared experiences, connect through their hearts, through their passion for yoga, spend four to six weeks together in a world of wordless understanding, sharing their dreams and climbing the same ladder towards the desired goal. Until you reach point of non differentiation. Releasing the concept of you are separate from me. Until it is painful to say goodbye. Leaving your yoga tribe, your temporary spiritual family of equal-minded souls, is one of the most difficult experiences... it is not easy.
Our Vision: Our vision is to spread the awareness of holistic living under the guidance of Vedic wisdom in the form of Yoga, Meditation and Ayurveda.
Our Yoga Instructor Courses take place on the beach in beautiful Misano Adriatico, Italy. Learning yoga in Italy is a unique, life-changing experience. Misano Adriatico is a commune in the Province of Rimini, located about 120 kilometers southeast of Bologna and about 14 kilometers southeast of Rimini along the Adriatic Sea. The city is a destination location for sports enthusiasts and ideal for family holidays, drawn by the events and meetings organized here. Yoga students will feel the warmth and replenishing energy of the Adriatic Sea when they spend time practicing yoga here.
What is Hatha yoga teacher training?
Hatha yoga is a branch of yoga derived from one of the six schools of Hinduism. It is the science of yoga which purifies the whole physical body by means of shatkarma (six cleansing practices), asana (postures), pranayama (breathing practices), mudra (seals), bandha (locks) and concentration, as a prelude to raja (or Kingly) yoga and samadhi (higher state of awareness commonly referred to as “bliss”). All of which are explored during your teacher training program in various forms.
