Sunday October 12th - Sunday, 19th, 2025
Escape to the sun-soaked coast of Spain for a rejuvenating week of yoga, relaxation, and discovery. We invite you to join Sarah Bond and Alaine Portner in the vibrant city of Valencia, where the charm of old-world architecture meets the tranquility of the Mediterranean Sea.
Nestled just steps from the beach, the resort offers a serene setting to unwind and reconnect—with yourself and others. Wake up to morning yoga sessions under clear blue skies, nourish your body with wholesome meals, and spend your afternoons soaking in the Spanish sun, exploring historic streets, or simply relaxing by the sea.
