I have been sailing from a very young age and teaching for the past 20 years, first in Ireland, then in Greece for 10 years and now in gorgeous Wanaka. It is something I am very passionate about and love teaching and passing on these skills to my students. The sailing course will be run from the local yacht club in Wanaka where there is access to various types of boats. This sport is weather dependant but hopefully we will get beautiful weather that will enable you to progress quickly and may even culminate in a trip to Ruby Island for lunch.
With this retreat being such an active one it is important that we are fueling our bodies with nutritious, healthy food. Lunch will be a healthy, homemade vegetarian buffet. Dinner, should you choose to join us, will be spent at one of the many amazing restaurants in Wanaka. This will be confirmed closer to the date.

'I went on the sailing and yoga retreat in December, it was an incredibly well planned, thoughtful and inspiring day. Verity is not only an excellent yoga teacher but also has a huge breadth of knowledge on all things sailing. Combined with a lovely bunch of people, delicious food and great chat - If you’re looking for a day of escape, adventure and food for the soul, I really couldn’t recommend this more!' - Rosie
