Yoga I Solen

@ Shambala Gatherings, Sweden // 20th - 23rd June 2024

SOLD OUT

With up to 19 daylight hours each day in June; Shambala Gatherings, Sweden are the perfect hosts for our midsummer celebrations.

Nestled in the middle of a giant pine forest with only the lake for company- this venue offers a unique opportunity to be in nature at a time of year that is so full of life and light.

We will practice yoga twice each day. Vinyasa flow in the morning and workshop in the afternoon / evening. We will have a very special summer solstice celebration on the 21st, where we will celebrate the longest day of the year and experience the midnight sun.

Shambala Gatherings is surrounded by the beautiful forest of Bergslagen, home to deer, moose and the beaver. You can enjoy one of the well signed nature walks (of varying lengths) during your free time.

There is a wood burning floating sauna on the lake at Shambala and we will have the opportunity to use it each day- why not follow your sauna with a dip in the lake. There’s little boats and canoes for those wanting to experience the lake without getting wet.

The food at Shambala really is next level- all vegan and gluten free and absolutely bloody delicious! Your heart, soul and belly will be full to the brim by the end of our time together.

What’s Included (apart from the obvious)?

  • 3 nights accommodation at the simple yet stunning Shambala Gatherings, Sweden

  • Ridiculously good food! Think hearty, warming, nourishing, mouth wateringly good (vegan / gluten free) grub in abundance!

  • Walks in the forest of Bergslagen. Keep you eyes peeled for moose, deer and beaver!

  • Floating Sauna and cold water plunge in the lake. A great way to soak those well used bodies and sooth the soul!

  • Time for yourself- read a book, take a nap, stare out of the window. Your spare time is all yours. What a treat!
