The Mindful Academy International courses in Spain are held as Mediterranean Costal Retreats in the wonderful 4 star Albir Playa Hotel and Spa located in the small family resort of Albir on the Costa Blanca. The resort has huge sea and mountain views of the bay and surrounding area (see the top picture) and a marble, palm tree lined beach with a friendly cafe culture, family restaurants, and shops. For those wishing to book their own accommodation, Albir has something to suit everyone. 

The resort is also located on the edge of the Sierra Gelada Natural Park with its stunning cliff top walk through the Park to the lighthouse. The resort is within easy reach of Alicante Airport, with many low cost carriers offering daily flights from all over Europe. There is evan a quick and easy English speaking shuttle service that drops you from Alicante Airport to the door of the Hotel.

If that was not enough, the World Health Organisation has confirmed what many people had believed for years, namely that this area is one of the healthiest areas of the world - so why not take the opportunity to train with us on the mediterranean coast in Spain! 

For those of you training with us in the USA, courses are held at the Trillium Yoga Studio in Milwaukee.
