RUNNING ON WAVES sailing and Yoga Holiday Greece
Incongruous? Not during this cruise. You will discover all grandeur of antiquity gathered on these islands – from the island, raised by Artemis to former Halicarnassus, vanquished by Alexander the Great. Yet it won’t bother you from jumping into an endless feast of merrymaking. You will never be tired of enjoying life in these islands – indeed, in one of them a mystical centre of power is hidden.

A welcome cocktail, a delicious dinner from the chef and acquaintance with the ship and crew are waiting for you!
Day 2
8:00h — Morning Yoga
It’s a daily session to wake up with the rising sun and do a gentle all-levels welcome yoga. Starting with a short meditation to connect ourselves and our intentions for the day, chanting a few mantras to awaken our soul, we continue with a couple of easy breathing exercises just before the physical practice. The flow with the postures is slow and easy to follow for everybody, always with more challenging options for advanced students. After 60 min we finish the physical exercises with a smooth and deep relaxation to start the day new and refreshed in all ways.
17:30h — The Earth Element Special Session
We start the first of five special yoga sessions with the Element Earth related to the 1st Chakra. We work our roots through our legs and feet practicing balancing poses, strength and resistance on our legs, increasing our security and our attention in the present moment. It’s a practice for an intermediate level where beginners can feel the challenge and the advanced ones the joy.

It is a practice for an intermediate level.

This practice is also for an intermediate level.
