Friday 24 - Sunday 26 Sept 2010        FULLY BOOKED

A wonderful weekend of yoga and walking for those who are keen to practice in a small group setting, away from it all in a beautiful remote part of North Yorkshire, on the moors near Hutton-le-Hole. It will be a communal affair - we will eat together, practice together, and chat in front of a roaring fire. Food will be vegetarian and organic, cooked by the wonderful Selma Khan of the PeaceCake Café. The weekend is not suitable for complete beginners, but if you have been practicing any form of hatha yoga for the past 6 months you are welcome.

We will arrange car shares up to Barmoor from York. You will need to bring: Yoga mat, blocks or cushion, 2 blankets, candle; sleeping bag or duvet, pillowcase, towel, sheet, perhaps a hot water bottle; slippers and warm clothes; walking gear; any special food or snacks you may need, although we will provide full board, cakes, teas and juice.
