Default Yoga Retreat Idea

Hi everyone...I've launched a yoga retreat excursion on the island of Milos in Greece, and am wondering about your opinions on the package I've offered and the price. You can check it out here: Welcome! | Exotic Yoga Retreats | Milos Island, Greece

The basics:

* 6 nights accommodation at the luxurious Melian Hotel and Spa (Melian Hotel & Spa, Milos, Cyclades, Greece), including breakfast
* Dinners on first and final nights
* Sunrise meditation by Angela Pashayan
* Morning and evening yoga sessions by Angela Pashayan
* Personalised fitness and diet analysis by Kasha
* Sea kayaking excursion
* Sea boat excursion
* Contouring slimming and anti-cellulite treatment massage at the hotel spa

The price is €1185/$1645 (double occupancy) / €1425/$1985(single occupancy)

What do you think? What's your first impression? I'm really thankful for any insights into this latest venture. Thanks!

That sounds lovely!

At this time, when people are being especially concerned about how they spend their money, I would emphasize the specialness of your retreat -- how luxuriously out of the ordinary it is and the personalization.

Good idea. The instructor specialises in a special form of 'Bhakti' yoga, not the power moves you see everyday at the gym. She's incredible.

Also, the hotel is top-notch and I got a really good deal for the suites. The place is pure luxury. We'll also be hosting two dinners with very healthy dishes that are traditionally greek and hand-selected by yours truly!

I will put all these details on the site pronto. Thanks so much for your insight!

I think now that it is just a matter of letting enough people know about it. I was wondering, do any Christians do yoga?

Yes...in fact, Angela Pashayan's style of yoga (Bhakti) is intertwined with the Christian faith. Her site is Yoga of Devotion Home

It's not the standard Ashtanga yoga offered in gym classes...you have to see it in her videos to really understand it. I can't wait for the retreat, it's precisely this type of spiritual guidance many of need right now :-)
