How this retreat works

Everything is in flux – your movement, your breath, your body, your heart, your mind.

This is how the people behind the retreat work with you – hand in hand and holistically. The Ayurveda workshops, relaxation techniques, and yoga sessions are thematically coordinated, complementing and deepening each other.
Nature and the magical landscape of Monchique provide the perfect atmosphere of tranquility and gentle inspiration for your retreat.

Retreat location

Bodhi Bhavan Algarve, Portugal

Bodhi Bhavan is situated on Mount Picota in Monchique, Portugal, offering fantastic views over the northwest side of the town and breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. The grounds blend harmoniously into the surrounding nature. The area offers spectacular views and is fantastic for hiking. Spanning over 6 hectares, the group is protected, and everyone can find a quiet, secluded spot to relax. Natural spring water flows directly from the mountain at various points. Some of these springs end in natural open pools where you can cool off on warm days. Nearby Monchique is a quiet, relaxed town with many small cobbled streets. The beaches of the Algarve are just a 30-minute drive away.

 

Accommodation

The main house has been newly renovated and features eight elegant double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. There is a living room, a kitchen, a terrace , and plenty of private spaces.

Yoga Shala

The studio is located 50 meters above the main house and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. On clear days, the view extends all the way to the west coast.

To preserve the original charm of the small house, the old stones were integrated into the new structure, and the house was given a new, raised wooden roof. The wall facing the valley and the outdoor terrace features expansive panoramic French doors. The entire window front can be opened. For cooler days, the room has a wood pellet stove. Next to the yoga shala, there is a 100-square-meter yoga terrace for yoga and other outdoor activities. 

The Yoga Shala is fully equipped with yoga mats, blocks, cushions, straps and meditation cushions.

    5. TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USING THE YOGANI OFFER by Anne Schulenburg

    The following conditions apply to all offers provided by YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg.

    6.1 Prerequisites

    Each client confirms upon registration that they are physically healthy and mentally stable, and capable of meeting the relevant physical and mental demands. The services offered are not intended as a therapy or healing program. They do not replace medical care or prescribed medication in any way. In case of doubt, a doctor should be consulted.

    6.2 Registration

    Registration for YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg's services must be made in writing via email or through the Eversports registration form, for which the customer will receive a confirmation email. This secures the spot and makes the participation fee due.

    Applications will be processed in the order they are received. The contractual relationship becomes legally binding upon receipt of the registration confirmation via email. If an application cannot be accepted, the applicant will be notified immediately.

    Only registrations from adults will be accepted. Minors must be represented by their parents.

    6.3 Payment terms

    The participation fee must be paid before the event begins. The fee is due upon registration and must be transferred without delay to the bank account details provided.

    Payment is considered overdue if the invoice is not settled within the specified period. Any processing fees and court-ordered collection fees are the sole responsibility of the customer. In the event of late payment, YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg reserves the right to withdraw from the contract and offer the course place to another participant.

    6.4 Obligation to participate, exclusion

    Participants are expected to attend courses (or other booked event series, such as training programs) regularly and constructively. Absences or the decision to discontinue a booked program are solely the responsibility of the participants and do not entitle them to a refund of participation fees.

    6.5 Arrival at Workshop/Seminar/Training

    YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg opens 20 minutes before the start of the event. Please arrive on time so as not to disturb participants already present. Entry is only permitted for all participants until the start of the class. There is no entitlement to later entry or participation in a session already in progress.

    6.6. Cancellation of registration, withdrawal procedures

    Cancellations are only accepted in writing (email) and will be confirmed in writing.

    No cancellation fee will be charged for cancellations made up to two weeks before the event date. For cancellations made between 14 and 7 days before the event, a processing fee of 50% of the invoice amount will be charged. For cancellations made later (7 days or less before the event), the full participation fee will be charged. This also applies if the participant simply fails to attend the course without prior notification.

    Should it become necessary to collect payment of the course fee by means of a reminder, additional reminder and processing fees (€7 per booked course) and a registration fee (€2.70) will be charged. Cancellation fees will also be collected via the reminder process.

    A substitute participant can be provided at any time, and this will replace the cancellation fee.

    6.7 Cancellation of private lessons

    Scheduled appointments for private lessons are binding. If they are not cancelled at least 24 hours in advance, the full amount is payable.

    6.8 Conducting events, cancellation, termination, changes

    In order to maintain a high quality standard for yoga classes, courses, seminars and workshops, the number of participants is limited.

    The execution of a course/workshop is contingent upon reaching a minimum number of participants by a specific deadline. If fewer participants register, the course/workshop may be modified, postponed, or canceled. Participation fees already paid will be fully refunded, or, at the customer's request, a transfer to another course/workshop may be arranged. Further claims for damages are excluded.

    YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg reserves the right to postpone, interrupt, or cancel a course session or an entire course at short notice for important reasons. In the event of cancellation or postponement, fees already paid will be refunded in full; in the case of interruption, a pro-rata refund will be issued. If an entire course is affected, a transfer to another course may be arranged at the customer's request. No further claims for damages will be accepted.

    YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg points out that the content and schedule of courses, or the yoga teacher, may be changed at short notice if necessary – while fundamentally maintaining the overall character of the course. This does not entitle the participant to withdraw from the contract. Claims for damages are excluded.

    YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg's liability for personal injury, property damage, and financial loss is limited to cases of intent and gross negligence. YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg is not liable for the consequences of improperly performed exercises.

    YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg performs its services professionally and conscientiously, adhering to the principles of proper execution, and strives to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the content and the data and information provided within the scope of its services. However, no guarantee can be given for the timeliness, accuracy, completeness, or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg relating to material or immaterial damages caused by the use or non-use of the information provided are generally excluded, unless YOGANI by Anne Schulenburg is proven to have acted with intent or gross negligence.

    6.10 Health status of the participants

    The participants confirm that they do not suffer from any contagious disease and that there are no medical reasons preventing them from performing the yoga exercises.

    Chronic illnesses, musculoskeletal disorders, and other physical or mental conditions that could affect a participant's yoga practice must be reported to the instructor before the start of each class. Pregnancy must also be reported to the instructor before the start of each class.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: I understand the instructions of the seminar leaders as offers and suggestions which I follow voluntarily. I assume full responsibility for myself and my actions during the courses.

    Yoga and meditation classes are not a substitute for medical or psychotherapeutic treatment. It is important to us that everyone takes responsibility for their own well-being.

    I undertake to inform the administrators before the start if I am not fully capable of participating due to mental, physical or psychological reasons, if I am in a vulnerable state of health and/or if I have a medical certificate to that effect.

    By purchasing this offer, I agree that I assume full responsibility for my actions during the YOGANI and La Luna activity and release the teachers Anne Schulenburg, Antje Bomsdorf, Lena Röpert and Lydia Brnada as well as other guest teachers from any claims and responsibilities.

    Should individual provisions of these General Terms and Conditions of Business and Participation be or become wholly or partially invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected (severability clause). In place of the wholly or partially invalid provision, a suitable alternative provision shall apply, to the extent legally permissible, which most closely approximates the economic intent and purpose of the original provision.

    9. APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION
