Another fantastic opportunity to join Nichi in the tranquil and stunning environment of Runswick Bay on the East Yorkshire coast. Stay for two or three nights in the lower village in luxury accommodation. Breakfast and evening vegetarian meals provided. Choose between twin shared rooms, shared double or have a room to yourself in one of the cottages. Most have sea views. Above photo is a view from one of the houses we use.

Reviews 

amazing and inspiring yoga. both classes and retreats are mesmeric and full of beautiful people in beautiful places.” Chris October 2022

“I booked on the Runswick Bay yoga retreat with my girlfriend. I’ve been on a Yoga Space retreat before, this was the first retreat for my girlfriend and neither of us had been to Runswick Bay before. Runswick Bay is the perfect place for a retreat. The small seaside village is picture postcard perfect with a long sandy beach, high cliffs and no cars in the village. You approach down a steep road and the bay opens up in front of you and takes your breath away. It’s just stunning. The house we stayed in had amazing views across the bay and out to sea from both the lounge and the bedrooms. The food was tasty and nutritious (and home cooked) dinner was held together in a beautiful chapel and breakfasts in your own cottage. The yoga started on Friday evening and Nichi put us at ease straight away. We had a mixed ability group and everyone was catered for beautifully. Then with meditation and yoga each morning and Yamuna body rolling each afternoon before dinner, time seemed to stand still for an idilic few days of peace, exercise, learning and harmony (with laughs, walks along the cliffs, afternoon teas and swims in the sea too!!) I can’t recommend Nichi, the retreat and Runswick Bay highly enough. We will be back just as soon as we can!”

” We were both delighted with our Yoga Weekend. Thanks for organising it so well. We thought it balanced just the right amount of yoga with enough time to relax and get involved in the plentiful diversions the area offers. The catering was top-notch and the yoga instruction was faultless. Accommodation and location was stunning.”

Nichi’s retreats have been life changing for me over the past few years. As a Type A, always on the go, never able to stop and switch off, Nichi has taught me the value in slowing down, be it through Yoga or meditation. 
Nichi’s retreats are a chance to do exactly that, switch off from the rest of the world, fully emerging yourself into rest and relaxation, coupled with the Yang of the Yoga flow. 
Missed these retreats so much in lockdown I am delighted they are running again.
