a weekend retreat with
Kate Bendall & Kovido Maddick
6.30pm Friday 28th November – 3pm Sunday 30th November 2015
Tirimoana-Whare-Roa, Karitane, Dunedin
Kate and Kovido will be running a weekend retreat at the amazingly beautiful location of Tirimoana-Whare-Roa, Karitane about 45 minutes north of Dunedin.
(see website Tirimoana Karitane)
It will be a mixture of Meditation, Yoga, Movement and Relaxation. This will include walking meditation and some Osho Movement Meditations. Some parts of it will be in silence and others will include discussions. Some experience of meditation/yoga is probably helpful but beginners are welcome.
We really want you to trust your intuition of what you need so you are welcome to join in what you want to and leave what you don’t want to. Alternatively you can sit drinking tea, looking at the gorgeous view, going for a walk or having a rest.
We ask you to bring what you need for breakfasts and lunches and any special dietary needs. We will provide a light meal of soup and bread on the first night and a vegetarian meal on the second night and tea, coffee, herb teas, biscuits and crackers in between.
The cost will be:-
1)$200 per person for shared rooms includes linen and towels – 9 people
2)$150 for bringing own linen and sleeping on the covered verandah which has the fabulous view but not so much privacy – 5 people
