SUMMARY:Purple Valley Tenerife Retreat\, Canary Islands\, April 12-26\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Elements of Healing in Ashtanga Yoga \nPurple Valley Tenerife Retreat\, April 12-26 2025 \nWith Petri Räisänen and Tamara Ashley  \nThe traditional Ashtanga Yoga method was always meant to be adapted to the practitioners individual needs and conditions. So the Ashtanga asana sequences are the ground from which we can build our own personal practice based on our unique bodies\, ages\, identities\, mind types\, injuries and traumas.  \nAt the The Elements of Healing in Ashtanga Yoga Retreat you will be accepted as you are and be encouraged to follow the traditional method with kindness\, healing therapies\, care and love.  \nWe are inviting everyone the opportunity to enjoy the practice\, movement\, spiritual growth and great company in beautiful Tenerife.         \nOur hope is to open us all up to more diversity (which is required for a healthy yoga community)\, more safety (which makes everything to bloom) and more happiness (which is the essence of an individual and collective yoga process) wherever we are in our personal yoga evolution. \nPurple Valley Goa has been running an European Purple Valley Retreats in Tenerife\, Canary Islands. The resort is an amazing combination of all different artistic houses and buildings just few minutes away from the famous hotels and beaches\, but in a completely peaceful environment. The shala is beautiful and the meals amazingly tasty. Sounds great. Yes it is! \nIn this part of Tenerife (Playa Paraiso\, Adeje) the sun is shining almost every day and the temperature is higher than in other parts of the island. There is summer all around the year. The trips to the beaches and mountains are amazing. Full pleasure! \nTamara Ashley will be assisting Petri and teaching a Tibetan Buddhist meditations and traditions in the evenings. Please\, check a new schedule with Tamara’s classes and her bio from the end of the page. \nYou are kindly welcomed! \nPetri Räisänen and Tamara Ashley \n  \n \nPetri’s sons made a garland in 2023 retreat                                                             Petri and Tamara in 2024 \nRetreat schedule \nEach week consists of 5 morning Mysore classes\, 1 Led Primary or Intermediate Series class and 4 afternoon workshops and evening meditations. \n \nWeek 1 April 12-19 2025 \nThe Elements of Healing in Ashtanga Yoga \nSaturday 12.4\n14:00-18:00 Arriving to the resort\n18:00 Retreat opening discussion\, schedule\, introduction\n19:00 Dinner \nSunday 13.4 \n06:00 or 7:30 Mysore style (two groups)\n15:00-17:00 Discussion on your personal practice and accessibility in Ashtanga Yoga; What is your need?

As a dancer\, bodyworker\, and somatic practitioner\, she brings over 25 years of movement knowledge and teaching to her work. She studies with Petri Raisanen and Juha Javainainen. She also studied with Oksana Gorkina\, Manju Jois\, Sharath Jois\, Eddie Stern\, David Swenson and Tim Feldman. Tamara is a practicing Buddhist in the Tibetan tradition and her teaching is informed by her meditation practice\, contemplative movement and experiential enquiries into the nature of the mind. Her route into Buddhist meditation came through dance improvisation trainings with her teacher Nancy Stark Smith\, who skilfully aligned many of the Tibetan Buddhist teachings with dance improvisation practice. Tamara maintains a body based somatic approach to meditation. Her studies in ashtanga yoga have strengthened and added to the practice\, giving a deeper understanding of the body mind\, energy\, and the healing process. Petri has been an important teacher in helping Tamara understand how to work with the subtle energies of the body and mind\, as well as helping her refine her sensing and healing skills. This background also informs her teaching in that she holds the space in a quiet and peaceful way that promotes the introspective inner sensing aspects of practice. \n    \nA seven headed Cobra shaped rock by te beach down from the resort \nPhoto by Petri 2023
