Finding Balance - Yoga & Ayurveda Retreat

We are fully booked. If you would like to join the waitlist, please Email namaste@yogaonthemove.de

Leonie and Uta from Yoga on the Move are taking you on a weekend retreat to a beautiful farm in Brandenburg.

Treat yourself with three days in nature to decelerate and reconnect. 

The program created around the theme “Finding Balance" is rooted in the ancient wisdom of Yoga & Ayurveda, two ancient traditions from India that work hand in hand to guide you closer to your truest self, deeply balanced within.

Expect daily morning Yang practice (Vinyasa, Elemental Yoga, Ayurveda inspired Flows) and evening Yin practice (Yin, Yoga Nidra, Slow Flows) including Pranayama and Meditations.

Throughout the retreat we will explore the qualities of the five Ayurvedic elements (earth, water, fire, wind, ether) through different Yoga techniques and meditation practices. It’s believed that living in balance with all five elements promotes a healthier lifestyle with which we can immerse ourselves into happier beings. In an in depth workshop we will give you a fundamental understanding of the ancient healing science of Ayurveda, and how you can adapt your life to Ayurvedic principles in order to invite more balance and health into Body, Mind and Soul. With the knowledge of our individual constitution and Dosha dominances, we will support you to attune our yoga practice and thus can transform our weakness into strength and invite more balance into our lives.

Make a weekend getaway with Yoga on the Move to breathe, relax and deepen your yoga and meditation practice.

Enjoy organic vegetarian/ vegan food, walks in the forest, bonfire sessions and dreamy chats under the stars – at Ponderosa, a farm turned dance and movement center, sprawled out over five hectares of lush forests and meadows in Eastern Brandenburg.

About the team:

Uta is a certified Yoga Teacher and dancer. She is teaching in several studios in Berlin. In her classes, she is sharing more than 20 years of physical practice. Her classes are flowy, physical, sometimes challenging but at the same time soft and calming.

Leonie is a 500hrs+ Yoga Alliance certified Teacher and co-founder of Yoga on the Move with a deep devotion for the ancient yogic traditions that she studied in India, Nepal, Bali and Berlin. Her classes involve dynamic movement with a focus on breathing, and meditation. She creates a space to arrive in the present moment and invite a state of lightness and ease. As a mom of twins, yoga is her tool to remain balanced throughout the challenges of everyday life.

About the location:

Ponderosa is an art centre, a community, and a place to gather and exchange. It is located in the German countryside, in the village of Stolzenhagen, around an hour on the train from Berlin, close to Poland.

About the transport:

We are planning to take the train collectively. Luckily it is very easy to get to Ponderosa by public transportation. Every 30 min a train leaves from Berlin central station to Angermünde. We will send you all travel details by the end of June and organize everything so no one has to travel alone.
