on the hammock to sleep.

We love Yoga!!! Yoga is not for flexible people...it's for people
that want to increase flexibility, still their minds and connect better with
themselves and with others. For sunrise we take you down by the seaside or we
will do it in our garden. Our lessons are a mixture of Hatha Vinyasa,
Kundalini and Yin Yang yoga and our instructors are highly qualified with yoga
alliance certifications taken in India and Bali and they will help
you to develop your practice.
The kite surf and Surf lessons
Our Hostel has a kite surf and surf partnership with the best surf
and kite surf schools of Portugal.
Kite surfing in Guincho Beach is for advanced Kite Surfers as it
is in waves, strong swell and rips. The other spots are for
beginners/intermediate levels.
The surf classes we propose are with an advanced,
combined system for all levels and ages, where results are achieved more
quickly by joining different-level classes and training through Surf’s
original essence.
