Gracias a las compañeras de este finde en Suryavana. Un retiro/formación explorando el maravilloso arte de Yin yoga. Un paso más a la Libertad para todas. 

Hi all, a short message from me. I have had a couple weeks at the end of the year with a little more space, an opportunity to reflect back on the year and get into some report style writing! I have written three pieces, a shabda letter last month, a letter to the WIndhorse Trust and a Directors report. For anyone interested I do post most material up onto Suryavana website blog and to the Suryavana page on buddhist centre online. 2025 has been a good year on the whole. We can say that.

This class is for everyone. Thanks for your dedication and support 2025. Love & life to you all.

Centro de Retiros Suryavana

Todos necesitamos un respiro de la vida cotidiana de vez en cuando. Un respiro así puede ser refrescante y revitalizante. Suryavana nos abre las puertas al mundo budista, ofreciendo una nueva perspectiva de la vida. Suryavana no es solo una casa rural, es un templo budista en plena naturaleza, amplio e inspirador.

Suryavana Retreat Centre

All us need a break from our everyday lives from time to time.
Such a break can be both refreshing and revitalizing.
Suryavana opens the portal into the Buddhist world, offering a new perspective on life and living.

Hi all. We just had a really “full-on” run of activities leaving me a little “Frito”. “Fried”. If you had spoken to me Sunday morning at 8am when we were preparing breakfast for our guests I would have been in a very different mood to now. Six events one after the other with a few days to recover in between each event. Padmashalin did a great job of running the kitchen. We were blessed by a couple of young volunteers, “making lighter work with many hands”. The extra challenge was that nearly all the groups were new non-Triratna folks, that rent out Suryavana.

Suryavana, Spain

Hi. I am back in Suryavana after an 18 days odyssey of what has felt like epic proportions. As a kid we often took the ferry from Plymouth over to France, my last trip was as a bolshy 15 year old teenager in my folks’ VW camper. I have wanted to travel from Spain to Plymouth, camping our way through France and take the ferry Roscoff to Plymouth for a long time. With the kids. With the dog, with our family car! So we did it! It can be done. 

In collaboration with Sudaka (Bodhiyoga International) we offer a yoga retreat, the «Call of the Forest» (13 – 19 July 2026)

A showcase of Bodhiyoga best practices and we present yoga through various modalities. Classical Hatha/Vinyasa, Remedial Yoga and Yin Yoga seemlessly exploring meditation and mindfulness throughout the day. We practice as much as we can «outdoors in the nature» enjoying the beautiful grounds of Suryavana Retreat Centre.

This year’s international yoga and meditation retreat at Suryavana. Sudakayoga collaborating with Bodhiyoga collaborating with Suryavana. Blessings to all and many thanks to everyone and big love and gratitude to Padmashalin, our venerable cook these days. Lots of yoga. 3 sessions a day. Exploring Satipathana. Mindfulness and enjoying the beautiful realm that is Suryavana!
