Yoga

Beautiful, relaxing and our yoga shala is the best you will ever see.

Not only the panoramic views, but also the breeze with our open plan.

The impressive 216m² shala, with all wood flooring and star stone, was designed to easily accommodate 30-35 mats.

After yoga, take a short stroll to the white sand beach andthe clear waters of Ekas Bay or contemplate on the landscaped roof of the yoga centre. Maybe treat yourself in the Spa right next door.We also have a dedicated kitchen facility at the yoga centre.

Yoga classes are at times that suit you with general or private classes. Maybe the dawn surf is first, maybe the yoga.

Our “Yoga” or combined “Surf and Yoga” packages are favourites.

Kerli can design a bespoke programme for the duration of your stay, allowing you to target specific body parts that may have experienced injuries or discomfort in the past. Or maybe shape your class around surfing
