A domestic version of holiness, a sacred refuge,
a vibrating space to cultivate mental and physical balance.
Yoga is not to be performed, it is to be lived. It is not a fitness fashion or an instagram trend, It is not even the hour we practice on the mat. Yoga is the pure self, the inner sun, the hidden and dormant force of peace and happiness which dwells in all of us. It is the sacral breath which unfolds and manifests what is beyond, what is divine. It is only with the control and discipline that we can savour it. That we can experience the three aspects Of the universal consciousness together, the physical, the mental and the spiritual. It is only with sense withdrawal And focus of mental energies, that the practice becomes a step For higher human evolution. It is so that we become calm, strong, centred, peaceful and grounded. Unifying science and art, love and devotion we have created this place. With peace and greetings for our masters and teachers, may we forever have their blessing. We don’t pretend to change others, we attempt to discover who we really are.

From our place, you can arrive at the beach by walk, passing through an enchanting path in the valley or following the river and getting lost in the elements. Ericeira was declared World Surfing Reserve in 2011 and is special for a world-class 8 km long surf coastline.
A paradise for the Yogis,
a place of bliss, peace, and discipline.
