5-Day Wellness & Movement Festival in the Alpujarra Mountains, Spain

The festival is built on a simple belief: that we cannot rise sustainably if we do not rest deeply, and that movement and stillness belong together. It's a week that reminds you of things you forgot you knew. The teachers were chosen not for their credentials, but for their commitment to being completely themselves—a quality that's contagious and makes the space feel safe enough to let go.

Mornings are dedicated to group practices that rotate across the full range of what the teachers bring: Acro Yoga for playfulness, Yin Yoga for deep stretch, Kirtan and Cacao for heart-opening, voice and Tantra exploration for expression, conscious bodywork for release, and dance for pure joy. Some days you'll split into smaller groups and follow what your body needs rather than a fixed timetable.

Afternoons are entirely yours. You can walk into the mountains, swim in the spring water pool, sleep in the sun, write, read, or do absolutely nothing. The Alpujarras are perfect for this kind of unhurried exploration. Evenings gather everyone back together for a group sunset practice, a shared meal prepared from the organic garden, and on certain nights, massage and calming journeys to close the day.

The festival is held at Cortijo Casería del Mercado, a family-run retreat center near the villages of Almegíjar and Cástaras. The finca has two indoor yoga studios, an outdoor covered training space that becomes a dance floor under the open sky, and a spring water pool. Peacocks roam the grounds, adding to the magical atmosphere.

Bodhi Sunrise, the host, is a yoga teacher with an 800-hour Jivamukti qualification and a background in high-performance sport. He has led one of Barcelona's most active outdoor yoga communities for seven years, teaching Vinyasa, Acro Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and his Sleep and Wake Protocol. His classes blend intelligent movement, nervous system regulation, and breathwork, creating experiences that feel like a reset rather than a workout.
