Yoga & Pilates Spa Retreat in Sweden
What a wonderful retreat, the Asia Spa is a superb venue and couldn't be better, the yoga/pilates studio is wonderful and Rose Marie's classes are fabulous. The dicipiline of yoga and pilates daily is a real treat, add to that the meditation and Yoga Nidra and use of the spa and you have a fabulous holistic retreat. Varberg is a lovely seaside town, no shortage of beautiful seaside walks and amazing sea air and lovely restaraunts/coffee shops.
I went on this retreat two years ago and when I went again this year I had to ask myself why I missed out last year? So, I promise to myself to book up for 2011 as soon as Rose Marie advertises the retreat again, I will be first in line.
Thanks Rose Marie for all your hard work in pulling the retreat together and you wonderful work as a teacher.
Love Aly
‘Dearest Rose-Marie, I feel I need to write to you to express my gratitude for giving me such a lovely Yoga/Pilates Holiday, with emphasis on your Creative Dance Yoga which was absolutely fantastic! After having a very sad time with a great loss in my family before my holiday I was very worried how I would be, but you were very supportive and the meditation classes helped me to come to terms. I know that I can now face the world with a more positive outlook.’ Love from Myra Webb, Kent.
‘If you need to ease the stress and strain of modern living, then Rose-Marie’s Spa Break in Sweden is just the antidote. A luxurious few days in a wonderful, top class Spa Hotel (with Jacuzzi, Vitality Pool, several Saunas, Japanese Wash Room and Meditation Room) was enjoyed by a group of 14 in the charming town of Varberg. The well planned and varied programme prepared by Rose-Marie was excellent and allowed time for wonderful reatments, as well as a walk in a lovely nature reserve.
Rose-Marie’s classes of Yoga and Pilate were great, as usual, and there were also some wonderful meditation and deep relaxation sessions when all our cares and worries just drifted away.
I would strongly recommend the break to anyone – young or old- who wants to re-energise themselves in the calm and friendly atmosphere of a top quality Spa Hotel.’ Anita Brunger, Kent
‘Dear Rose-Marie, my time in Sweden has been fantastic! The programme of Yoga, Dance, Meditation was perfect. Your excellent skills in finding the Spa, walk, restaurants and general help is so appreciated.
The friendships formed have me looking forward to returning here or to your other retreats. I have had such a fun and fabulous time.
I will recommend your courses and retreats to everyone.
(I am told I now look 10 year younger!!) God bless. Maureen Scholtka, Surrey.
