Really looking forward to this special 2019 offering of the Yin Medicines series in Jamaica. We will again be at the farm in St Mary, with fresh spring water flowing for drinking and our outdoor showers, hand built houses, breads made in the cob oven, organic foods, herbal teas and lots of fruit, essential oil distillations, natural adventures, hikes, swimming and unique cultural moments, with lots of yin yoga. This wholistic healing offerings can be for personal growth and health or as education and training. Come and catch a vibe on this modern Rasta family farm for either a 7 day retreat, a 14 day Yin Training or dive right YIN for 30 day Yin Yoga Teacher Training. LLY is a Yoga Alliance registered school and Danielle is an E-RYT, so hours can as CEU or training hours.
Accommodations are shared, the meals are vegan and we are in a rural community with limited access. The farm requires you to be able to walk up and down the small hill (a few times a day), but we are also located right on the sea…so you can cool down with a salt dip or a spring water shower! LLY has been running events for 8 years in Jamaican and stoked be running our 4th year in St Mary. We LOVE small towns in Jamaica for the family vibe, untouched nature and true friends.
See our retreat and training dates below. If you are hoping to book a private retreat or small group at other times, you can connect with at danielle@lovelightyoga.com.
