Yoga retreats at aja

Breathe in, breathe out – this fundamental aspect of yoga is much easier to practise amidst the fresh mountain air on an aja holiday than amidst the stresses of everyday life at home. On our yoga retreats, you’ll finally find time for yourself again. We combine active flows and relaxing sessions with a break where the mountains are always part of the experience. That’s the aja way of doing yoga.

What is yoga?

Yoga originated in India and combines physical exercises with breathing techniques, meditation and spiritual teachings. Practising various postures, known as asanas, improves strength, balance and flexibility. However, yoga is more than just physical strengthening; it is a holistic philosophy of life that aims to foster greater mindfulness, conscious presence in the here and now, and improved harmony between body and mind.

Yoga & Wellness

Yoga and wellness? A perfect match. On your yoga retreat in the mountains, you’ll alternate between your mat, the mountain air and aja SPA.
