Hi all

We have a special last few places available for this wonderful healthy weekend at Atzaro,s ibiza held with myself (Jax) and James Giuseppe at Ibiza No.1 SPA - direct Ryan flights 27- 30th March

There’s nothing bootcamp about this set-up: champagne and mojitos are as much a part of the schedule as yoga and massages. Yet respect for nature and the body is at the root of everything. So is balance – something most of us city-dwellers are sorely missing.

We have one 465 euro place left for 4 days and only 2 590 euro places for 5 days.

Please feel free to check our schedule as we still have places available for May 18 -22nd at our beach club and see our new WOMENS ONLY YOGA RETREAT in september 20 - 24th 2010.

Peace in
Peace out

Yoga Retreats

Dear all

A yoga retreat is only as good as the teacher who leads it, and James Giuseppi is, without doubt, an extraordinarily limber, committed — and funny — exponent of his craft.
Giuseppi’s retreats are a chance to put aside whatever is fraying you round the edges and concentrate exclusively on your practice.
If you have not yet realised that one of the best yoga retreats in Europe is Ibiza at Atzaro at the end of this month you may want to take a deeper look at our website www.formenterayoga.com or check us out by emailing Jax@atzaro.com for more details.

Your only commitments: 1.5hours of class twice a day and a healthy appetite.
Atzaro is the NO.1 Ibiza escape and 2 days here can feel like 2 weeks.

Peace in and peace out

Yoga Retreats Ibiza & Formentera










The Balearics are synonymous with hedonistic indulgence and the hordes of holidaymakers on
package trips who flood Ibiza, Minorca and Majorca each summer; but there is one small paradise island in the cluster that has yet to be overrun:Formentera, 11 miles off the south eastern coast of Ibiza, in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.





This Spanish National Park for the Balearic Islands is neverthelessquickly evolving into a moneyed bohemian play land. Think brunch of organic granola served with vintage champagne. As a result, former Ibiza fashionista regulars such as Kate Moss and Elle McPherson are
opting to hire a villa on Formentera then catch a powerboat – to spend their Wednesdays at superclub Amnesia or Sundays at Space.



‘With exotic languages, Formentera is fashionable but not intimidating. It’s not uncommon for visitors to hire sleek Italian yachts and journey around the island from partying on neighbouring Ibiza. Formentera can be like ‘millionaires row’ with super yachts banked up on the beach, where dinghies loaded with champagne and seafood platters are ready to be whisked off to publicity-shy seafarers.’ - The Telegraph 2005



Today on Formentera there are few cars, no traffic lights, and the only person that owns enough land to build an airport refuses to do so for fear it will spoil the place. Oh, andthe beaches are stunning and the crystal clear water is cleaner than India, Thailand and the rest of
Europe (exception to Sardinia) –and all of this within 2.5 hours from London Stansted for
around £130 return flight. Surelythis can’t be true?




Few British holidaymakers know the tiny Mediterranean island of Formentera better than Essex and Formentera-based yoga teacher and writer Jax Lysycia, who set up a Yoga & Pilates Detox Retreat there five years ago; and she believes the reason British people don’t visit
Formentera is simply because they don’t know about it.



The longest beach is Playa Migjorn, where the celebrities go to detox and practice yoga under the warm sun. “Last year when sunbathing I saw a photographer acting strange, then only to
realise he was taking photos of Sadie Frost and Kate Moss at the Formentera Yoga venue on Playa Migjorn beach,” reveals Jax. “GQ Magazine called this 6km of golden white powdery sand ‘one of the Top 10 coolest places on the planet’ in May 2007, and the greatest thing of all is that there is hardly anyone there.



Formentera’s turquoise waters are voted the cleanest in the Balearics, and have been compared to the Caribbean.” Cala Sahona – West Coast, beautiful secluded cove
Playa Illetas – North Peninsula, kms of white puff sand
Playa Migjorn – This being the Yoga, Pilates and Detox beach
sweeping around a 6km crescent to the South
Espalmador – Soak in two natural mud baths



Beach Bars


• on Platje de ses Illetes – rattan chairs, great music, perfect cocktails
and a sizzling view of Ibiza’s Es Vedra
• on Playa Migjorn the Blue Bar serving cold beer and fruit shakes to a
soundtrack of Bob Marley and Eric Clapton
• Paradiso/Las Banderas where you can enjoy bohemian chic beds on
the beach with great desserts and vintage champagne
How To Get There:
Chartered or scheduled flights to Ibiza, followed by a 30-minute crossing from Ibiza town to La Savina.




The New Balearic Retreat Hotspot



Take only one or two days off work and spend the weekend at Formentera Yoga and get back to the office Monday morning feeling and looking great. Students get a little more bronzed, supple and relaxed each day, resulting in weight loss and energy restoration.



The Yoga & Detox is designed to detoxify the system of impurities and replace diminished serotonin levels as you rest in the peace of their exotic and stunning location. Detox, Shiatsu, Yoga and Pilates and Massage Packages from £450, available for Spring/Summer 2008, from
