Exotic bliss in an African paradise 
costs & travel
 Do you want to really get away from it all and be
inspired by some of the most stunning scenery in
East Africa?
Join us on our exclusive retreat at Ngare Sero; a
beautiful traditional safari lodge set in lush
gardens on the slopes of
Mt Meru, with the snows of
Kilimanjaro as a splendid backdrop.
Breathe fresh clean mountain air and let our dynamic
international team of teachers and therapists guide
you through
a well-being programme guaranteed to
relax, replenish and restore you on every level.
Our retreat will focus on opening and softening the
body with daily yoga and tai chi classes, gentle
nutritional cleansing with delicious stress-free
food and re-balancing your energy with some
exceptional therapies from India, Tibet, UK and
Zanzibar.
Our Programme
Yoga and tai chi
We start our day with a tai chi class followed by a
Scaravelli yoga class after which you can relax over
a delicious breakfast. Each day you’ll learn and
master something new, and by the end of the week
you’ll have your own tai chi and yoga practice to
take home with you.
Treatments
Bliss out with pampering spa treatments; re-balance
with craniosacral therapy; work on your flexibility
with deep Indian Chavutti massage or visit the
Tibetan clinic for acupuncture, moxibustion, sound
healing, osteopathy and manipulation work.
Food and nutrition
Using fresh food picked from the lodge gardens, the
menus are carefully designed by our nutritionist
using natural nutrition principles so your food is
stress free, enabling your body to maximise the
benefits of the yoga and treatments.
Workshops and more…
We will have workshops and cooking classes on some
afternoons and end your day with a silent walk to a
beautiful view point for sunset meditation.
Relaxation and
exploring
During the day you can relax by the pool, take a
sauna or enjoy the serenity and peace of private
gardens. The surrounding fifty acres of forest are
home to a wide array of exotic flora and fauna and a
private crystal clear lake.
