Africa Yoga Retreat with Joan Hyman

The material for this event is thin: it gives only the title, the teaching language, the location, the length of the retreat and the fact that it is one of a year of retreats at the same place. I will write only what it supports.

Africa Yoga Retreat with Joan Hyman is a yoga retreat at Munga Plains in Kavimba, in the Chobe region of northern Botswana. It is taught in English and is open to individual booking, so you can come on your own or with a friend and join a small group of fellow practitioners.

Joan Hyman leads this week, one of a series of public retreats held at Munga Plains between March and December. Each retreat on that calendar has its own teacher, style, rhythm and focus, and this one carries Joan's name and her way of teaching.

What to Expect

The retreat runs for eight days, from the first day to the last. It is a yoga retreat set in the Chobe landscape of Botswana, a part of Africa known for its open plains and wildlife. The teaching is in English.

The organizers describe their retreats as differing in tone and pace from one teacher to the next. What sets this week apart is the person guiding it, so the best way to know its feel is to learn about Joan Hyman and her classes before you book.

About Joan Hyman

Joan Hyman is the teacher leading the Africa Yoga Retreat at Munga Plains. She teaches in English and brings her own approach to the week, as each guest teacher in the Munga Plains calendar does.

The Setting

The retreat takes place at Munga Plains in Kavimba, in the Chobe region of Botswana. Munga Plains hosts retreats through much of the year, each led by a different teacher, which makes it a place where yoga is practiced in a wild and open setting rather than in a studio.
