Retreat to the beautiful Ballymaloe for a day filled with yoga, self care and connection to celebrate the Summer Solstice. This day retreat is open to all levels, whether you are new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner - everybody is welcome.
The Summer Solstice marks the official start of astronomical Summer. It's a time when nature is in full bloom, representing growth, abundance and vitality. We will honor the energy of the solstice by igniting our inner fire through an energizing morning practice, connect to nature with a walk around the grounds, nourish our bodies with a locally produced & seasonal lunch, and deepen our connection with ourselves through reflective practices like yin, nidra and meditation.
Yoga mats and props will be provided but you are welcome to bring your own if preferred.

About Gillian
Gillian is a dedicated yoga practitioner with over 500 hours of training and teaching experience in Australia and Ireland. Having suffered with scoliosis and chronic back pain for many years, Gillian turned to yoga and quickly noticed that the benefits went beyond just the physical. Originally from Cork, Gillian completed her 200hr training in Sydney, followed by additional trainings in Injury Management, Therapeutics, Adjustments, Yin, Meditation, and Pre & Post Natal yoga with leading teachers Noelle Connolly, Sarah Routhier, Jason Crandell, Tiffany Cruikshank & Simon Park. Her teachers have a strong background in Ashtanga and Iyengar which taught her in-depth knowledge of alignment, anatomy and intelligent sequencing. Gillian's classes are light-hearted and educational, always offering different options to suit the varied levels in the room.
