Yoga & Horse Experience

Sun Dance Ranch organizes a unique Yoga retreat combined with a deeper level connection of horse related yoga.

This will be something wonderful with a special program!
Every morning there is yoga before breakfast and yoga or meditation at the end of the efternoon. The days are filled with a wonderful program with yoga & meditation, working in/with the herd, lots of luxury, but also time to relax and integrate the processes that are going on in your body. There are also moments of rest included and you can explore the area. Or you can just relax and recharge your energy level.

We are supported in this by the inspiring environment of the Sun Dance Ranch in Sweden, where a herd of about 20 horses lives in freedom all year round on about 20 hectares of meadows and forests. The perfect accommodation for a perfect yoga & horse week!

Yoga

We do yoga to train body and mind, to find inner peace and to find a deeper connection with yourself. We do all the lessons together and you can see the guidance as a suggestion. Because the teacher can only guide you, you have to adjust where you are with your body at that moment. Yoga is playful and fun.

Yoga – “You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.”- Mary Oliver

Lisan Bremmers (from the Netherlands but living in Sweden) will be guiding this week. She also runs yoga retreats in Greece and at her home. She is an experienced yoga teacher who teaches intuitively and directly from her heart. She combines hatha yoga with free somatic movements, making the exercises new and different every time, just as the human body and nature itself are constantly changing. The yoga is suitable for everyone, from beginner to experienced yogi.
We practice asana (yoga poses), pranayama (breathing techniques) and meditation.

Welcome to a week of fun, adventure and harmony!

Gentle hatha and somatic yoga

We practice hatha yoga, somatic movements and myo-fascial unwinding and work on improving our balance, strength and flexibility to experience a feeling of inner harmony and confidence. Sometimes there will be pauses between the different yoga poses and exercises and sometimes we get into a wonderful dynamic flow.

Meditation

Lisan will be guiding you in pranayama, relaxing breathing exercises and in sitting, lying and walking meditation. When we come in contact with our inner silent core we can rest in the feeling of being already whole.

Restorative Yin Yoga

A gentle and relaxing class that combines influences from yin and restorative yoga, sitting and lying on the floor to unwind body and mind. We end the class with Yoga Nidra, a guided deep relaxation.

Horse yoga

Yoga on horseback! A way to connect to your horse and yourself in a different and perhaps even deeper way. A playful and fun experience! Yoga on the horse and next to your horse on the ground, movements we’ve already practiced on the mat that you can adjust as much as you like, to feel confident and connected.

Massage

It is possible to book a relaxing and restorative massage on site with Lisan.
Release tension, release muscles, improve blood circulation and lymphatic system, but above all: enjoy!
