EUROPE
Europe’s yoga scene is as diverse as the continent itself, from the
hustle and bustle of the big cities to the dreamy islands of the
Mediterranean. Southern Spain has become a hotspot for yoga retreats,
notably in and around Andalusia, although there’s plenty going on
elsewhere, including the chic Spanish islands which have welcomed
an inlux of yoga — not just Ibiza and the Balearics, but also the Canary
Islands, a holidaymaker’s playground. Along the sunny shores of the
Mediterranean, there’s plenty going on in Portugal, France, Italy, Greece
and Turkey; all have established themselves as top yoga destinations
in recent times. Turkey ofers especially great value sitting outside
the eurozone. As well as these sunshine states, you’ll ind retreats in
Europe’s mountains spots, where you can take in the Alpine views of
Austria or Switzerland. So many yoga choices!
