Aether Yoga Day Retreat - 31st July & 1st August 2027 - Fire

£78.00
Dates:

Our August day retreats in Gisburn Forest are themed around the element of fire 🔥, celebrating the strength of the summer sun in Leo season. We’ll practise yoga, breathwork and meditation, with time to enjoy the woods in summer.

I’ll also lead a fire ceremony, where we’ll take a little time to reflect on what we’re ready to let go of.

There’s a morning yoga flow, a chef-prepared lunch and a slower afternoon. You don’t need to come to regular classes or have done yoga before. I’ll guide you through the practices, and you’re welcome to take things at your own pace.

You can expect:

🧘‍♀️ A morning yoga flow and a slow, relaxing session in the afternoon with me
🥗 A warming, nourishing lunch by a local chef
🕉 Guided meditation, breathwork and deep rest
🔥 A fire ceremony with me
🍵 Tea, herbal teas and coffee throughout the day, with cacao at the end

One of my favourite things about these days is the people. We’ve had some fab groups so far, with people coming solo, with friends, as couples or with family. There’s time to chat over lunch, and space for a bit of quiet too.

We have a yurt with a wood fire available when we need shelter from the weather, so you’ll always have somewhere comfortable to practise.

The day is open to all genders, ages 14+, and beginners are welcome. Feel free to bring your own mat and props, but I can provide them too.

📅 31st July & 1st August 2027: each date is a separate day retreat
🕰️ 10.30am–4pm

Any questions, just message me through the contact form or email cshort@aetheryoga.org.

See you in the woods! Charlotte xx

  • August is Leo season, linked to the fire element. Setting a theme gives me a starting point to theme the yoga sequences around, so we'll have a more energetic flow in the morning to build up some heat and then a smouldering slow yoga session in the afternoon.

    It's also a chance to think about what you want to burn away in life (negative thoughts, actions, ways of life) or build up & fuel, like you'd build a fire. Setting an intention for the day gives it a focus: it's rare we get a chance to connect to ourselves for a whole day away from work/kids/distractions so I'd love for everyone to take something useful back into life.

    We'll also have a fire pit that we can sit around for some cacao and a closing chat . Watching fire is something so peaceful and ancestral, I really wanted to include it in the day.

    Just a few places left for the retreat - we’re limited to 15 places. I'd love to see you there🔥✨
