What is yoga?

Yoga originated in India and combines physical exercises with breathing techniques, meditation and spiritual teachings. The practice of various postures, known as asanas, improves strength, balance and flexibility. But yoga is more than just physical strengthening; it is a holistic philosophy of life that aims to increase mindfulness, conscious presence in the here and now and improved harmony between body and mind.

Why a yoga retreat in the Harz Mountains?

A yoga retreat in the Harz Mountains combines the calming energy of nature with the inner balance of yoga. Surrounded by forests, clear mountain air and expansive views, the region around Wernigerode invites you to let go, take a deep breath and recharge your batteries.

This special atmosphere creates space for peace, mindfulness and genuine relaxation for body and mind.

Whether it's downward-facing dog, sun salutations or tree pose - yoga is much more than just movement: It harmonises body, mind and breath. Its positive effects - from stress reduction and inner peace to more strength, flexibility and stamina - are now scientifically well documented.

Regardless of whether you already have experience or are taking your first steps on the mat: Svenja Kunde - an experienced yoga teacher, fitness trainer and masseuse - will guide you through the yoga weekend with a great deal of expertise and sensitivity.

The exercises are individually tailored to the group so that everyone can go at their own pace. You can look forward to yoga sessions, meditation and relaxed evenings in good company - for a weekend that will stay with you.
