Yoga English weekend:
Recharge. Reconnect. Relax
Guided by Lisa Kuriscak
Friday, May 2 (18:00) to Sunday, May 4 (18:00), 2025
Nourish your body, mind and spirit in Perunea, a retreat center that we lovingly run in our ecologically remodeled, 500-year-old Basque home nestled in the beautiful Aralar mountains. This retreat is offered in English, open to any World citizen. Whether you’re a life-long yoga practitioner or just starting off, and whether English is your primary language or one that you’re picking up, we invite you to spend an immersive weekend with us.
Our approach to yoga and language is the same: Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, we meet you where you are and tailor what we offer for the needs of the participants, so the experience with each group is unique and special. If you are a student of English, our activities will also help you grow your vocabulary, fluency, and confidence, whether you’re preparing for an exam or just studying the language for fun. And if your English is rusty, don’t worry: You’ll be in a supportive, judgment-free space and you’ll see that you’re capable of more than you thought.
What to expect: Daily yoga practice (morning and afternoon/evening) that emphasizes moving in harmony with the body’s natural intelligence, healthy and delicious vegan meals, meditation, no-stress conversation in English (or free time for those who prefer it), walks in nature, and a feeling of being at home.
