We opened our school to be able to spread the yoga teachings & lifestyle with people from all over the world. That's why on your days off we organise different trekkings or sightseeing if you are interested. There is no way to get to know the island than with people who lives in it.
One Sunday we will all walk to the peak of El Teide (3.718 meters high). And at the end of the course days you can relax by the pool or in the garden chill out zones.
