Spring Self-Care Myofascial Yoga Retreat
With Claire Sangster and Gem Burke
(Sponsored Listing)
Spring is a time of emergence; a season that invites softness after winter’s stillness, movement after rest, and intention after introspection. Through the gentle yet powerful practice of myofascial yoga, you’ll be guided to unwind the body’s held stories, nourish your nervous system, and create space for your natural vitality to flow again.
As the earth awakens and new life unfurls, this retreat offers a sacred pause to tend to your own inner renewal. In the afterglow of Beltane’s fire and the May 1st full moonlight, let your body stretch back toward the light, and allow spring to awaken what has long been waiting.
This retreat is an invitation to:
Slow down and reconnect with your body’s innate intelligence.
Release tension through mindful movement, breathwork, and fascial release.
Restore energy with nourishing food, quiet time in nature, and guided rest practices.
Reawaken your inner rhythms—aligning body, mind, and spirit with the season’s rising light.
The Venue
We will be staying in the beautiful Cornish Manor House & Gardens, set in secluded grounds near some of the best beaches on the north coast of Cornwall. Built in 1846, the estate is only 2 miles from the coastline and a short drive to the beautiful towns of St Ives and Padstow.
All rooms benefit bespoke design, with varying options to suit all budgets (see below for details). We will eat together in the wonderful communal space. Our plant based food will be prepared by the amazing Chloe Webb, who will be on site and cooking just for us for the whole retreat. You will also have access to all facilities at Tresillian House for the duration of your stay including it’s rolling, peaceful grounds and gardens
Included:
Each day will weave together myofascial yoga, meditation, and spacious time for reflection, rest, and connection. You’ll be held in the serene beauty of Tresillian House, surrounded by spring’s unfolding greens and blossoms—a perfect setting to remember what it feels like to truly inhabit yourself.
There will be time to explore the local area; the stunning coastlines of Cornwall, the local estuaries, rivers and valleys.
There will be the option to add in myofascial release or Reiki treatments with skilled facilitators.
