Michael J. Wong with friends

We have had the honour of having Michael J. Wong here on several occasions before. In this unique retreat we have asked him to invite some friends to come along and create another beautiful weekend together with us. More teachers and activities, but still with the same soul – as heartfelt and community based as before. Michael will be holding space for us throughout the weekend, not only during his classes but he is also hosting our very special opening and closing ceremony and has invited the other teachers to be there with him. We can’t wait to be there too.

This shines through during al styles of Jonna's classes. You are guided to be present in your body and listen to yourself. The inner teacher is a cornerstone of Jonna's instructorship.

Jonna has been working as an instructor since 2003 and has used the possibilities of yoga through different phases of life. And the practice can look very different depending on what life looks like.
