This retreat is set in a magical settings where the Parque Natural Sierra de Grazalema rises from quiet rural byways like an apparition and the natural world takes you away from your daily humdrum and chores. Great buttresses of rock silhouetted against the clouds soar above a forested landscape tinged with green even when the rest of Andalucía turns yellow under a baking summer sun. A Unesco Biosphere reserve since 1977, according to BBC Travel, the best place to hike in Andalucía.
Two whitewashed villages serve as gateways to our yoga retreat center. Zahara de la Sierra is one of Andalucías most striking villages, sashaying up a craggy, castletopped peak in the parks northern reaches. And El Gastor, also known as the Balcony of the Andalucían White Villages, its narrow passes connecting the villages lead over high mountain passes, drawing near to some of Spains prettiest mountain scenery.
If youre looking for a mountain and yoga vacation, this is the place for you!
Enjoy beautiful accommodation surrounded by nature. Cool off after a hike in the mountains at our five outdoor pools with views of the sierra. Fresh vegetarian meals will be cooked for you daily. You can savour local organic produce in delicious Mediterranean dishes.
The retreat is designed as a luxurious and slow paced to allow you to really relax and consider your innermost desires and ideas on the birth of your baby.

Our Birthing workshops and retreats are truly unique. These go well beyond hypnobirthing, in fact hypnobirthing is just one single technique that can be applied in the context of an undisturbed birth. We bring evidence from a variety of areas such as anthropology, neuroscience, cultural artefacts and community wisdom. Science, and neuroscience in particular, is littered with gems of important evidence-based understanding of how we can make our births truly personal, empowering and a positive experience that should be denied to no parent.
We are evidence based and not expert based. This attitude defines us in everything we do.
