Event description

Join Karen and Bryden for a Sattva Yoga Retreat by the beach in Queenscliff! This is a unique opportunity to deepen your knowledge and experience a powerful fully integrative practice straight from the Himalayas of India. Over the weekend you will be taken on a journey into Sattva yoga, incorporating all the 7 elements that make it so unique. You'll get to share this with great people and delicious food from our amazing Naturopath Christina!  

Discover the unique combination of pranayama, kriya and hatha with freedom movement and partner work.This integrated practice grants  you access to the power you hold within yourself to master your own feeling state. Set against the beautiful back drop of Queenscliff. We'll be able to incorporate both nature and yoga into this incredible weekend. 

You will learn potent breathing and kriya techniques which originate from ancient Tantric and Vedantic Himalayan traditions. These techniques help you shift your energy, access deep states of stillness, become fully present, downregulate stress, upregulate your immune system and de-excite the nervous system.

Sat is truth, Va is vast. Sattva means all encompassing truth. Life will constantly guide you to live from a larger sense of truth and incorporated wisdom. Every Sattva yoga class is a chance to touch upon that wisdom within yourself. The class is as a journey within, through which you gain self-knowledge and insight that you can then integrate in your life off the mat. This retreat will utilise an opening fire ceremony, evening and morning practice, meditation, an optional morning devotional practice (Puja) and wisdom talks to further deepen your relationship with yourself. 

Bryden McGregor is an Osteopath, Master Sattva Yoga teacher & breathwork facilitator. Karen Vermeersch is a Master Sattva Yoga teacher, Vedic astrologer and Bach flower therapist. Both will be fresh off the plane from India. Bryden with brand new knowledge from his masters training. Karen visiting from India after having spent the last 4 years at Sattva Yoga Academy co-teaching the 200 and 300hr teacher trainings. Take this opportunity to soak up this beautiful energy and wisdom.

  • Laya comes from the Sufi tradition and consists of soft healing movements that open the heart and connects us with those qualities such as gratitude, (self)love and devotion.
