A retreat is much more than a holiday - it is a valuable investment in your self, though it may take a couple of days for your mind to slow down and for your body to relax into the flow. Then as sunshine, food and massage work their magic, layers of tension dissolve and you're back in touch with the real you.
We hope that you enjoy exploring this website which will give you important information as well as a good insight for what to expect at Kaliyoga. FAQ!! |

Personal Testimonial
Lisa Thompson - teacher, 33 (March, 2010).
"Kaliyoga felt like 'coming home'. Almost instantly I felt an affinity to the place and the people. I am a qualified Iyengar yoga instructor and I've been to a few different retreats over the years, but Kaliyoga has something so special! I felt that Lely has the incredible ability to relay the essence of yoga so clearly to beginners and to reiterate fundamentals to the experienced... Her passion, knowledge and truth shine through in her teaching approach. Your chef is incredible, the food was exquisite, as were all the therapists and staff.
Being at Kaliyoga is like giving yourself a big hug and a warm sunny smile from inside! Bliss!!

"Three weeks post detox and I am feeling invigorated, peaceful, ready for the year ahead, and incredibly grateful for the experience that you created for us. I have changed my eating patterns, I am eating smaller portions, eating slower, knowing when I feel full, not depriving myself of anything and enjoying food a lot more. I thought the structure of the detox and daily routine was well thought out and effortlessly executed, making it easier for us to enjoy and benefit from the experience."

"You've put so much thought and love into the place and the programme. Lelly's teaching was really inspiring - the yoga was dynamic but gentle, which was great for me personally. She taught me to always practise yoga with great respect and sensitivity, and this is a lovely new approach to bring back with me to London. Also Jamie's laughter yoga was a HUGE success - it was totally intoxicating and we all felt high as kites afterwards.
The food was a real highlight - fabulous, wholesome, and VERY tasty.
I can't think of anything I'd change about the week - it was heaven on earth."
