Integral Yoga Europe is pleased to announce that they have located an ideal venue in Spain for the Integral Yoga European Reunion May 18 – 22, 2024. The name of the venue is the Oasis Al-Hamam ( www.oasisalhamam.com ). The Oasis Al-Hamam is inland, set in beautiful countryside approximately 45 minutes by road from Almeria which is a town on the Mediterranean coast around 400 kilometres north-east from Gibraltar. Almeria boasts an airport that services mainly domestic flights from other Spanish cities although direct flights are available from a limited number of European countries. In addition to Almeria there are two other airports nearby, namely Granada and Murcia. Transportation between the venue and Almeria airport is available but special arrangements would need to be made if arriving/departing from Granada or Murcia.
The venue can cater for up to 100 visitors in various types of accommodation including private rooms, dormitories and, for the more adventurous camping tents and facilities for camper vans. It also has two large Yoga halls ideal for both Hatha Yoga and Satsang sessions. Notwithstanding that for some attendance may depend upon the final and full costs, including travel costs to the venue, at this stage, we should be grateful to the heads of each European Integral Yoga Centre for an indication only of the numbers of possible attendees from their centres. This will greatly assist us with both the financial and logistical planning for the event. The program for the Reunion has yet to be compiled in detail but it will, as always, include Satsangs given by our honoured guests, early morning Hatha Yoga sessions and evening Kirtan.
Naturally within the program there will also be opportunities for European centre heads to meet and discuss matters of common interest, ideas for the future, etc. At the time of writing invitations have been issued to Swami Ashokananda, Swami Ramananda, Swami Divyananda and Avi Gordon (Integral Yoga Teachers Association director). Due to the Coronavirus pandemic the holding of the next Integral Yoga European Reunion is long overdue and we are therefore extremely happy that we will finally all get together to celebrate our unity in the spirit of Satchidananda!
The Integral Yoga Centre of Gibraltar will host this Reunion and they are looking forward to greeting you all next year so, please save the date! More details to follow!
