Retreats
Retreat with Norman and Maitripushpa
Norman and Maitripushpa run regular retreats at various venues. Getting away can be a wonderful way of evolving practise
and deepening understanding. Each retreat has morning classes of Ashtanga-influenced yoga (plenty of props and plenty of options) and afternoon classes of Yin yoga. Every day there are morning and evening sessions of meditation led by Maitripushpa.
Being on retreat can be an opportunity to experience more space, more content, more insight. Norman and Maitripushpa
emphasise accessibility and inclusivity. Maitripushpa is significantly influenced by many years of Buddhist practice
plus years of study within other spiritual traditions.
Some context re retreats and flying. The last retreat that Norman taught abroad was 2019. The retreat in Tenerife in May 2024 will be the last time that Norman will teach at a venue that is only practically accessible by flying.
