NOTE: the retreat in Gomera this year is NOT a family yoga retreat

Gingi will be returning to the Finca Argayall (meaning "Place of Light"), a beautiful one-and-a-half acre sanctuary hidden in a wild and beautiful Atlantic Ocean bay. This is a week to be nurtured and revitalized through daily ashtanga yoga, tai chi, qigong, meditation and pranayama, delicious nutritious food, therapeutic treatments (including sound-massage, cranio-sacral, integrative body therapy, esalen massage, holistic bodywork, homeopathy, deep tissue massage, ear-acupuncture, aqua-wellness) and connecting with like-minded yogis.

There is plenty to enjoy – swimming in the sea or in one of the two pools, kicking back in the shade of the huge rubber tree, wandering through the organic fruit and vegetable gardens, or visiting the cafes, bars, shops, restaurants and lovely sandy beaches nearby. You can also arrange climbing excursions and treks in the stunning cloud-forest reserve or boat trips to see whales and dolphins in their natural environment.

Delicious organic vegetarian food is a highlight of any stay here - 3 meals per day (except Tuesday dinner) are served buffet style, with a variety of tropical fruits, vegetables and salads (seasonal) grown in the Finca's organic garden.
