This week we talk to Jonathon and Rosie, who set up Kaliyoga, a holistic yoga and detox center in the Alpujarra mountains south of Granada. We talk about the difficulties of setting up a business like this in Spain, how they marketed their new business in the beginning, and the rewards they now reap a few years down the line…

Aaaaaahhh! That sound sooooo relaxing. Don’t think I could stand on my head though. Wonderful podcast. From your words I conjured up the marvellous sights in my mind. I must visit the area, if not the teepees.

Why Teepees for yoga?

Great podcast! Oh my, I really want to go! I love yoga, and practicing in the mountains of Spain would be that much better! I am going to check out their website…hope they have affordable rates for students…

I so enjoyed listening to this and hearing Jonji and Rosie’s voices again – I’ve been to Kaliyoga twice and I’m going back to the detox in a couple of weeks. Jonji and Rosie are great fun, very down to earth and both brilliant yoga teachers and hosts, the setting tranquill and fantastic and I cannot recommend it enough!!

I never noticed it before, but in this photo Marina and Jonathan look as if they could be related.

Andalucia sounds like a wonderful place to learn yoga. I’m a beginner and am trying to find some good places i could go when i’m on holiday down there. Obviously there’s kaliyoga which sounds wonderful and my friend also recommended yogawithneo (linked from my name). Does anyone have any other suggestions for yoga retreats in southern spain?
Thanks everyone!
