Can I join the retreats alone?

Yes you can. You can also come with a friend, partner, child or alone. What ever feels best for you!

Do you need to have yoga experience to be able to join retreats?

No, you don’t. Anyone can join, wether you are a total beginner (I love beginners mindsets) or a professional yogi. The yoga sessions and workshops are designed to include any level and experience and there is always enough spasce to find your own flow and feel great. I include a lot of my own approach and teachings, which offers learning opportunities and great experiences for everyone.

If I live in Düsseldorf, can I spend the nights at my own home?

Yes, you can! There are 2 mian different booking options, with or without hotel. If you prefer to sleep in your own bed at home, you can. If you prefer to spend the nights at HENRI hotel, you can do that too and also enjoy their very home-y breakfast!

Do the retreats include personal travel insurances?

No. I highly recommend everyone to get their own travel insurance, because you never know what happens and there is always a possibility for you to not be able to make it. The retreats are not fully refundable, and 2 weeks before the start of the retreats not refundable at all. So to be on the safe side and stress free, I recommend you to have your own insurance. I have one as well!

Do I need to prepare myself for the retreats?

Not really. If you are looking forward to it, this is a great preparation!

What do I have to bring to the retreats?

Comfortable clothes, that you feel good in and allow you to move well. It is also always good to bring a sweater and a pair of socks. especially when we are still in the spring or head towards the autumn time, it can be a bit colder in the mornings or evenings. Some people also just really enjoy to be cozy, especially when doing very gentle activities, such as slow classes or meditation sessions.

If you like, you can bring your own yoga mat, but it is not necessary, as they will be provided at the studio.

Are travel expenses included?

Flights and airport trasnfers are not included.

Only the transfer expenses during the retreat for activities that are part of the program, e.g. to go to sights or the wine tastings. I can always arrange for you an airport or city to retreat place transfer, but it is not included, as people arrive from different parts of the world at different times.

What kind of food do you serve?

On all retreats we serve vegetarian and vegan friendly food. Sometimes there will be fish, as the retreats take place close to the ocean and it is a nice way to try culinary specialties from the regions. But in any case, I will ask for any dietary preferences and allergies before any retreat, so we can accomodate everyone, wether you have celiac disease, a lactose intolerance, religious dietary restrictions etc.

Can I arrive ealier or leave later?

Part of the retreat package are only the dates announced. If you like to arrive earlier, or leave later, you will need to book your accomodation extra for those days. This can be at the same place, if there are availabilities. I can also always give you recommendations of places to stay at or things to see if you like to plan a longer travel.

What is your language for the yoga, meditation & movement sessions?

It depends on the group. If everyone is German speaking, I can lead sessions in German. Otherwise, the sessions will mostly be lead in English, if the group is international. Obviously, I can always translate parts of the sessions into either language.
