THE TURKISH RETREAT
OCTOBER 18TH - 25TH 2025
Following September 2022’s fan-bloomin-tastic Spanish retreat Tipi Yoga is back with another carefully planned luxurious yoga-filled week for you to grab a space on.
​
A seven night luxury holistic yoga retreat on the western Turkish coast; minutes from the beach. Two or more daily yoga and meditation classes in the shala in a range of styles including Hatha, Restorative, Core, Yin, Nidra and more.
​
This retreat is all about learning and submerging yourself in all things yoga, to have fun, relax and try out some new things. Maybe you'll 'get' crow pose, maybe you'll fall asleep in Savasana, either way, you've got what you needed from the retreat.
The classes are beginner friendly but it does help to have some yoga experience as then you can push yourself a little - that's why you get 3 weeks of free Tipi Yoga classes in the run up to the retreat.
With an experienced, highly qualified yoga and wellbeing teacher at your side this is the opportunity to delve deep into your practice knowing that you are safe and practicing correctly.

After a short break you'll join me for an outdoor energising Vinyasa Flow yoga class on the terrace with views across the Turkish Riviera.

YOUR TEACHER
Hi! My name's Ebony.
I am Yoga Alliance YACEP adult yoga certified in 573 hours, Aerial Yoga London trained Aerial Yoga Teacher, CMA accredited Tree of Life qualified in Children Do Yoga, Sunshine Network Teacher, Thai masseuse trained through Jungle Healing accredited with The International Society of Thai Yoga Massage.
My favourite thing about teaching yoga is seeing someone take their body further than they thought they could. Our minds give up way before our bodies do and I love seeing a yogi realise how much more they are capable of.
​
I adore teaching retreats, the immersion into a daily practice and testing new limits coupled with being surrounded by like minded souls in a beautiful environment leaves me changed forever so I can only imagine how my yogis feel. Plus, I LOVE organising, so expect as near perfection as I can possible create! Sunshine hear we come!
EXCURSION DAY
Nothing is compulsory on your holiday but I have planned an exploration day should you wish to join.
​
On our exploration day, we follow our usual routine to breakfast after which I will head off to the harbour for a day at sea on the Turkish Riviera, and you are very welcome to join me. I will be taking a private boat trip around Gocek's stunning bays and islands with freshly prepared lunch onboard. The day will end with a wander around Gocek followed by dinner at an authentic restaurant on the seafront. There is nothing scheduled at the villa after breakfast to allow you freedom and time to fully immerse yourself in the local area whether you join the boat trip or not.
​
Those who wish for some alone time at any stage in the retreat are very welcome to do so and have the option to explore the local area and cuisine, chill at the villa, visit Gocek, or take the 50 minute journey to Fetihye where you can soak up some history at the Amyntas Rock Tombs. You could go canyoning with a local guide, snorkel the under water ruins of Kalimce, go paragliding or hike in the surrounding pine forested mountains and hills. The surrounding area also boasts world famous stunning sandy beaches and bays, perhaps SUP is too tame and kite surfing appeals, or jet skiing! Whatever takes your fancy, I can provide excellent recommended trips and contacts on request.

REVIEWS
I've been going to Tipi yoga classes weekly since I moved to the area and they are really enjoyable. I feel excellent after leaving the class and I also learn so much from Ebony, she is very knowledgeable.
I have just returned from the Tipi Yoga Retreat in Southern Spain and it was such a fantastic week, honestly one of the best I have had in a long time. Ebony had planned every detail from the activities, classes, food and location. It was all perfect, I wouldn't change a single thing. When I look back at the week, I can't believe how much we did every day, but I came home feeling so relaxed and content.
I would recommend anyone to go on her next retreat, as long as I have already booked my place!

This was my first Yoga retreat and it was one of the best weeks of my life! I’ve come back remembering who I am and what’s it’s like to just exist again. It was a little piece of heaven.
Ebony planned a week with a lovely balance of Yin and Yang practices. Fun and other non Yoga related activities interwoven throughout, with options to do as much or as little as you wanted.
I’ve come back having made life long friends and memories I will cherish forever. Thank you Ebony for your brilliant planning and knowledge. Can’t wait to do it again soon.

Just spent a long awaited week at La Finca Almeria yoga retreat - the best week ever! Ebony organised everything perfectly, from the taxi that picked me up from the airport, the daily programme of activities, the evening in Almeria and the last day on the beach, the whole week was amazing - Ebony was amazing!! I am definitely on the list for next year. I can't praise Ebony enough. Oh, and the food was the best I have eaten!

Had the most amazing week at La Finca in Almeria with a group of the loveliest ladies. The whole week was planned and organised by Ebony @ Tipi Yoga.
Everything from the people, the accommodation, the surroundings, the location, the facilities (including amazing therapies provided by Rafaela) and the food were amongst the best I have ever experienced!!
Thank you to all the staff at La Finca and also to Ebony for making the week one I will remember for a very long time to come.
