Teacher: Krishia Schilz and Shogan Parker
Cost: Number of days' accommodation
15% discount offered on June/July mid-week bookings
Dates:
  As autumn approaches, we invite you to take a break and join us for an unstructured personal retreat. During your stay, you can enjoy gentle yoga, qigong, massage therapy, and meditation - to promote relaxation. Alternatively, you may choose to simply enjoy the tranquillity of the space, embracing the art of doing nothing. Imagine cozying up by a warm fire, savouring delicious vegetarian meals, and immersing yourself in silence. This time out offers a slower rhythm, allowing you to step back from the busyness of life and find peace within.
View teacher details Hide teacher details Krishia Schilz is a qualified Bereavement Counsellor specialising in Grief and Loss, as well as Trauma Containment. Her spiritual path led her to Yoga in which she is certified in various styles. Krishia completed her training in the beautiful Bali, before locating to Thailand in order to teach. Her practice includes: yoga , pranayama (breath work), meditation, Yoga Philosophy and healing massage treatments.
William (Shogan) has been practising meditation for nearly 20 years, cultivating stillness and inquiry. He took precepts with Dae Chong, Osho at Poplar Grove and now leads morning and evening zazen at the BRC, weaving verses from the Dhammapada into meditation for reflection and insight. With a keen interest in how the Dharma might evolve in an AI-driven, multiplanetary future, William embraces both tradition and possibility. He also guides qigong in the mornings and offers tai chi in the afternoons, integrating movement into mindfulness. His practice is an invitation - to sit, to move, and to explore the ever-expanding nature of awareness.

Teacher: Despina Forbes
Cost: 2 days accommodation + R400 surcharge
Dates:
 This is an invitation to slow down and retreat with the support of two optional daily practices, a sound journey, time for solitude, silence and individual connection to support you through the weekend. Despina will be offering two yoga classes per day which include meditation, breathwork and therapeutic sound (morning and evening) with plenty of time to retreat at your own pace. Yoga and meditation can be experienced as a practice of cultivating well-being. We will be exploring Yin, gentle hatha and restorative yoga, breathwork, therapeutic sound and mindfulness practices. Intentional sounds like in a sound journey intend to invite us into a deeper state of listening and meditation that transcends the thinking mind. It is a beautiful practice to listen deeply to harmonic sounds such as in nature and give ourselves fully to the experience of embodied listening - full body listening. The truth of all things resides in the vibration and resonance made from one single sound. Combining these practices of movement, stillness and sound creates powerful possibilities for insight, transformation and healing for the body, mind, and heart. Breakfast and dinner will be in silence.
View teacher details Hide teacher details Despina Forbes is a mindfulness, trauma and somatic informed psychologist, yoga and mindfulness meditation practitioner and sound therapist whose intention is to hold space for facilitating well-being through the practice of embodiment and sustainable therapeutic practices for the purpose of cultivating awareness, healthy change, compassion, resilience and collective well-being.
