Forget about ‘Facebook’, ‘Instagram’, ‘Tinder’, ‘Twitter’ and the other thousands of social communities that exist nowadays all over Internet on every computer, smartphone and tablet.
Forget about virtual contacts and profile pages and instead start thinking about a forgotten spiritual and physical family community that exists in the real world, stretching to every corner of the globe.
Slow Retreats doesn’t know what the word ‘frontier’ means. We are not limited by distance, or by borders or boundaries. We want people to be able to fully enjoy our Retreats, our magical meetings, our family, anywhere in the world.
That’s why we, once again, put our passion, love and energy together to build a network of boutique hotels to host us and to host you for a Yoga Retreat.
Choose your destination, the place you desire the most…and we’ll make it happen together!
