Plan ahead for your best holiday ever!Join us for one full week of pure Mediterranean bliss. Our yoga holidays include two yoga classes daily, group excursions to traditional villages, shops and historic sites, and lots of free time to soak up the Mediterranean sun and swim at any of Kythira's spectacular beaches. Connect with nature, feast on sumptuous organic foods, make new friends, and relax deeply. AccommodationsEach morning begins with a breakfast of local fresh fruit and coffee served to you on your own ocean view veranda. Our yoga classes are held shortly after, in the privacy of our own courtyard area that gazes out onto the sea. Each breath is scented by the salty sea breezes and the abundance of wild herbs that blanket the island. You will be staying in the small, picturesque fishing village of Avlemonas. It is here that archaeologists have spent years searching for the Temple of Aphrodite, the goddess of spiritual and erotic love. Your accommodations are a family run, boutique hotel tended with care by Pashali and his family who have lived on the island for generations. Kythira IslandKythira has a rugged, simple beauty, and tourism here is still quite undeveloped. Kythira is a calm refuge that takes pride in its traditional way of life, and boasts some of the most astonishingly beautiful beaches in all of Greece. Free TimeWe have three group dinners planned at the island's finest tavernas. Produce is picked fresh from adjacent gardens, and fish is delivered daily from local fishermen. We will even have the accompaniment of live Greek music so bring your dancing shoes...OPA! Instructors and GuidesScott Latham and our representative on the island George Gerolimatos will guide you to some exquisite sites on the island. Their deep appreciation for the beauty of nature, history and tradition make them your perfect guides. In addition to our group excursions we will give you lots of time to explore on your own with a car provided for you. Gloria Latham, director of Yoga Teacher Training at Semperviva, is a native of Kythira. Gloria will give you a taste of Greece that only a local can. Her yoga classes will help you tap into a deep inner freedom and strength. Her goal is nothing short of transformation. Strengthen your body, unburden your mind, and free your soul. Move beyond any self imposed limitations and rediscover yourself on this magical island. Combining the power of yoga with the rugged and passionate, raw energy of the Greek Islands will renew, refresh, and transform you. Fall into the Greek rhythm of life... sun, sea, sand, sumptuous organic food, great friends, strengthening and empowering yoga classes and meditations. Join us for a Holiday you'll never forget!
