2009 Retreats

With Greg and Tracy Cooper

Dunk Island Yoga Retreat . . .
Sunday 16th August - Friday 21st August followed by

Sanctuary Yoga Retreat . . .
Sunday 23rd August - Friday 28th August

Created to provide an opportunity to practice in tranquil, natural settings free from the distractions and responsibilities of our working lives. There will be time and space to experience a broad and diverse perspective on the ashtanga yoga practice, to relax and to have fun! All levels most welcome including beginners to Ashtanga. Early bookings are recommended to secure your preferred accommodation and take advantage of cheaper flights.

These retreats are approximately halfway between Cairns & Townsville North Queensland. Separated by a leisurely 20 min Ferry Journey both venues provide a distinctly unique holiday experiences in one of the most pristine environments in the world. Dunk Island has all the facilities, activities and style you would imagine at a Tropical beachfront resort - thoroughly catering for the needs of singles & couples and families alike. (n.B Kids stay and eat for free!) Sanctuary's treehouse atmosphere overlooking lush jungle and the coral sea evokes a more intimate and secluded experience (not an ideal venue for families).

These retreats can be undertaken together or separately.
