A weekend of Yoga, Acroyoga, massage, fun and games.


Includes fullboard accommodation, led yoga and acroyoga classes, and open training times.

​

Fiona is a certified yoga and acroyoga teacher - find out more about her background on her website: www.yogafitwestcork.com

When training with Fiona, we learn it all:

  • Basing: being strong, balanced and reliable for our partner to take flight, basing is a weight-lifting workout, so much more fun than lifting iron at the gym!

  • Flying: Making yourself light, holding your shape, retraining your brain to direct your body when inverted or revolving, trusting your partners won't let you down and, yes, FLYING!!!

  • Spotting: essential to  ensure the flyer is safe, when spotting you also get a sense of how you can base or fly the poses yourself.

​

For this new gathering of acroyogis, we get the full use of Horizon view B&B. Ensuite accommodation overlooking the Valentia harbour bay, breathtaking views of the lighthouse, and a short walk from Glanleam beach or the village of Knightstown (find out more about Valentia Island here) .
