Take yoga from the comfort of your own home to Skyros’ breathtaking landscape. What better way to relax into the day than freeing the mind, strengthening the body and lifting the spirit - the physical benefits of yoga are myriad.
When some people think of yoga, they think of people doing strange poses whilst standing on their head, contorting their bodies into the most unusual shapes and positions. But don't be intimidated. Yoga offers lots of different movements and sequences to suit every age, body shape, and ability. It can be done by people with physical disabilities as well as people who are extremely fit and flexible.
The poses are a constant, but the approach to them varies depending on the tradition in which the teacher has been trained. But whatever the tradition, the Skyros yoga courses are facilitated by many outstanding teachers who will accommodate both the more learned of students and those with little experience of yoga.
Yoga is only one of the many activities available as Atsitsa Bay offers as many as fifteen courses a day though participants can choose only up to three. Courses range from windsurfing and sailing to dance, yoga, painting and music. Those staying at the Skyros Centre will incorporate yoga into the early part of the day that is followed by the option of Writing or Life Coaching, plus Music & Arts.
‘I reckoned I'd rather learn Pilates in an open-air pavilion with sea views than down at my local grim gym.’ Spirit & Destiny
‘Before I went, people said to me 'Things happen on Skyros'. I felt that you couldn't go somewhere with that kind of expectation but, emotionally and spiritually, the impact of the holiday was enormous. It was inspiring. Surprising. More than I could have expected. Against the odds - namely my own cynicism, doubts and reserve - I gained an insight into me and the way I want to live my life.’ Body & Soul Escapes
