Description

Are you ready to experience the real island life? Sleep under the stars while camping on our own private island? In collaboration with Layag Philippines we will take you on a 3-day, 2-night adventure going deeper into the islands away from the tours and crowds. All our sumptuous meals will be prepared by our boat crew throughout the journey.

As a way of expressing our gratitude to Mother Earth, we will perform our karma yoga and seva (selfless service) by dedicating a day of hopping from one beautiful island to another to enjoy its clear water and white sand beaches while collecting rubbish along the way.

Part of the revenue from this safari will be shared with the local community who are involved in its operation and sending children to school through scholarship grants.

The rest of our stay will be in a family-run resort on Caalan Beach, the quieter end of the El Nido, with majestic views of Cadlao Island.

Daily yoga sessions - you can do as little and as much as you like. You also DO NOT have to do any yoga at all. Various styles of yoga styles will be offered throughout, a flowing vinyasa sequence to wake us up before breakfast, a restorative or yin yoga at sunset to cap the day. Guided pranayama and meditation to complement our practice. All levels and abilities are welcome. Please bring your own mats and props.

Disclaimer:
This journey is not for everyone...
Before applying to take part in this safari you must understand that what we offer is not a luxurious yoga holiday. This is a journey to the remote islands in El Nido. We do not guarantee that you will have a nice relaxing time. In fact we do not guarantee anything.

It might be bad weather, it might be rough waves. Limited privacy. Barking dogs, crowing roosters, mosquito bites, jellyfish stings, sunburn...but that is the nature of an island experience, the unexpected, the unknown, stepping outside your comfort zone. Yoga sessions will take place where there is space.

We love it, but we understand that this is not everyone's idea of a good time. Is it yours?
