Villa Preciosa
Superb teachers, great yoga, welcoming host....what more could you ask for?
Situated on a peaceful urbanisation of large private villas, Villa Preciosa located in Torrevieja, and is the ideal place to enjoy a relaxing yoga holiday, whether you visit alone or with friends.
There is a large outside area for the taught yoga sessions in the mornings, and during the afternoons this area is also ideal for self-practice.
Yoga
Our teachers take great care to ensure that all yoga is practised safely whilst providing the guidance for you to progress in your individual practice.
'Body of Light' taught by Jacqui is based in the Iyenger system of yoga. In her teachings she investigates the anatomy of alignment in postures, the freedom of flowing movements within the breath and the fun of defying gravity. Students are encouraged to explore their bodies within a light and friendly atmosphere. Practice will intergrate a balance of Kriya cleansing, Pranayama and Asana. She will cover the full spectrum of Asana to a level that is appropriate to each individual, focusing each day on the different postures groups (Forward bends, back bends, standing postures, Inversions, twists). Be prepared for fun, relaxation and deepening your understanding of Yoga. Questions, queries and discussion will be welcomed with open arms!
Well-Being Week
Ruth will be hosting this fantastic re-energising well-being week. With daily meditations, massage, Reiki, walking, eating great food and spending time with warm people, you are just bound to have a brilliant holiday, where you also chill and make new friends.
Villa Preciosa
The Villa is light and airy with a spacious lounge. Bedrooms are situated off the main living and dining areas, and each has an overhead fan to keep you cool. One twin and one treble bedroom are en-suite. A second twin room shares a bathroom with the single room. The Villa may accommodate up to 7 guests.
The grounds of Villa Preciosa are spacious, with several trees including a lemon tree, orange tree and Oleander. When not praticing yoga, you may choose to sit quietly in a shady area or relax around the pool. Ruth, your host, offers holistic massage, and treatments are available in the afternoons.
More than a retreat, you will have the opportunity to stroll into the cosmopolitan town of Torrevieja, just a 15 minute, flat walk away. With traditional and modern bars and restaurants you may choose to sip a glass of wine overlooking the marina, enjoy a plate or two of tapas, or to have an afternoon sunbathing on the lovely sandy beach. If shopping is your thing, why not visit the colourful market where you are guaranteed to pick up a bargain.
