Yoga, Restoration & Stillness
Each day on our Hepburn Springs yoga retreat is centred around morning and afternoon yoga, restoration and stillness. The yoga classes are suitable for all, from complete beginners to seasoned practitioners. Jessie and Lee bring a genuine love of yoga and deep care for each guest’s practice, meeting everyone where they are and ensuring everyone feels supported and well looked after throughout the retreat.
Jessie’s morning yoga classes combine gentle flowing sequences with breath awareness, along with holding postures longer to cultivate alignment, flexibility, and strength. Each morning class meets you where you are, with variations and modifications for different energy levels and needs.
Afternoon classes are deeply restorative, to nourish and reset the nervous system, quieten the mind, and replenish natural energy levels. Yoga props are used and guests receive an abundance of guidance and adjustments from Jessie and Lee. Evening classes include guided relaxation, meditation, or pranayama, gentle breathing and stillness before bed to promote deep sleep. Additional pre-lunch yoga sessions include restorative and core strength practice, along with time to soak in the region’s natural mineral pools between classes.
Accommodation, Meals & Walks
For this retreat we stay at Continental House, a restored 1920s guesthouse in the heart of Hepburn Springs, with comfortable ensuite bedrooms, air conditioning and heating, modern beds, and luxury bed linen. A sunny timber-floored yoga room overlooking the gardens, a lounge with fireplaces, and a large dining room create a warm home away from home feel for our retreat together.
An acre of lush garden surrounds the house, with fruit trees, an edible garden, and abundant birdlife, along with wandering pathways and quiet corners to sit, read, or simply be still. Retreat facilities include a spa deck and a Turkish Hammam.
Guided nature walks are offered through the countryside right from the doorstep. All walks are optional and include gentle periods of silence, a restorative way to absorb the surroundings. You’re welcome to join as many or as few walks as you like, or simply rest and soak in the natural surrounds.
Meals are prepared by a passionate local catering team, with abundant, nourishing vegetarian breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, along with all-day coffee, organic teas, lemon balm, lavender and seasonal herbs from the garden. Dietary requirements can be catered for with advance notice.
Spa Deck & Turkish Hammam Ritual
Our Hepburn Springs yoga retreat includes full access to the Spa Deck with infrared sauna, magnesium tub, and cold plunge pool, along with a 1-hour guided cleansing ritual in the Turkish Hammam. This is an authentic Hammam bathing experience with aromatherapy steam, clay face mask, body exfoliation, soft mud soap bubbles, and soothing massage, guided by a Steam Therapist, followed by light refreshment and relaxation in the Sheba lounge. Massages and facials can also be booked in-house with advance notice. The Hepburn Bathhouse and Spa is also a short stroll away, for anyone wishing to enhance their experience with a soak in the area’s natural mineral waters.
