About the retreat

Join Miriam, Negeen and the Oru team for a sunshine filled winter retreat in Sri Lanka! Sri Lankan food, culture and community values have influenced Oru Space greatly, and we’re so excited to be taking you on an adventure to this incredible country. This week-long retreat will be an amazing opportunity to practice lots of healing, nourishing and revitalising yoga with our teachers Miriam and Negeen, whilst making new connections, exploring a new country, eating delicious nutritious food and getting time to yourself to relax and restore. On top of this, we’ll be escaping the depths of the UK winter where the weather in Sri Lanka is expected to be 28-30 degrees!

Each day will start and end with longer yoga practices including dynamic flow, power yoga, soothing yin and restorative yoga, yoga nidra, free movement and expression, meditation, journaling and more. All levels of experience are welcome, however we recommend that you have a minimum of 6 months experience of going to classes semi-regularly, so that you can get the most out of the retreat. Where you’ll stay and excursions Welikande Estate is an eco-conscious and sustainable Yoga retreat centre in the heart of Sri Lanka, The Knuckle Mountains. Perched on the top of the mountain, overlooking the surrounding valleys and Victoria Lake, offering acres of gardens with a yoga shala and meditation studio, a Spa center, a swimming pool, and mountain view accommodations. There are lots of options for local experiences, from swimming in waterfalls, learning how to make a Sri Lankan curry with a sweet couple down in Heeloya Valley (and of course eat this for lunch), hiking surrounded by paddy fields and tea plantations high on the Knuckles Mountain range with views as far as the horizon goes, and cultural trips to nearby temples and towns. All activities are optional, if you’d rather relax by the pool or enjoy walks in the local area then you are more than welcome to!

Activities will be paid for as an additional expense on top of your retreat payment.

What’s included:

7 nights accommodation at Welikande Estate in a room of your choice Daily yoga classes 2 additional workshops through the week 3 vegetarian meals a day including local Sri Lankan delicacies Teas, coffee, juices throughout the day

What’s not included:

Flights Visas Travel insurance Transfers to and from Welikande Estate Treatments Additional excursions

    • First of all, conversations with people who aren't Corbyn supporters are obviously going to tell you why those people didn't vote for him, aren't they? Second (and I don't know why I have to keep on saying this) the electoral system worked against him in terms of seats lost. If you look at the actual numbers of votes per party, yes Labour was behind, but not by as much as it appeared if just seats were counted. Thirdly, that poll was of "nearly 500" people who stopped voting Labour. That's not a very big sample, is it? Of those, 35% said it was because of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership (i.e. 65% had other reasons). Even upping the numbers to  500 people, 35% is 175. 10,269,051  people did actually vote Labour in that election. It's a long time since I used statistics for anything, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think anything you have said is "evidence"!
    • Dog kennel isn't a great name for a school. I agree that it's ridiculous for the name to put anyone off going there, but don't see any issue with them rebranding if the parents and children prefer a new name. The school is surrounded by historical 'groves' (reflected in the names of Camberwell Grove, Grove park and Grove Vale for example), so it's not a totally random name. 
    • It might help if there are body cams to record evidence and a presence maybe a deterrent but I very much doubt a park warden would intervene with obnoxious and violent thugs - children or not. We need police for that.  
    • I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!
