PORTUGAL SUMMER RETREAT
MAFRA, PORTUGAL
June 25- July 1, 2023
The shanti retreat aims to bring shanti (peace) to your life, through the practice of yoga, meditation, pranayama, healthy eating, special workshops and the company of wonderful like-minded people. This open-leveled retreat welcomes all practitioners, from all ages. We offer safe and fun variations in the class, and you are invited to slow down or challenge up according to what is needed!
This retreat will be held at the Shanti Space, a beautiful Quinta set in a forest bordering a national park. Quietly cocooned in nature, the neighbours are an Iberian Wolf Sanctuary, the Tapada de Mafra National Park where many animals like deer, wild boar and owls live. As a retreat venue it is an utterly unique and tranquil place. The Shanti Space offers the compelling blend of comfort, space, convenience, creative freedom, and calm; the perfect canvas.
Within a 15 minute drive we reach the beach, see the fierce waves of the Atlantic coast and the charming hip surf town, Ericeira. Less than half an hour from Lisbon and the airport, we welcome friends from all over the world.

Venue
Nestled in a beautiful woodland valley, only half an hour from Lisbon and fifteen minutes from Ericeira beach, The Shanti Space is a nourishing family-run sanctuary for retreat, to rest and restore well-being whilst bathed in the loving embrace of nature. Amongst ancient native corks and abundant fruit trees, swept up in the enchantment of a forest filled valley, The Shanti Space was created to provide a sanctuary bathed in Nature. It's calm, quiet, feels a million miles from civilisation & people like it that way.
They have 2 yoga spaces, one in the forest with a phenomenal view of the magical valley, and a garden shala with epic views of the garden & surrounding trees. The shala comes equipped with mats, blocks, straps, chairs, etc.
We have available 5 twin rooms, 3 ensuite and 2 rooms that share a bathroom. There is also a comfortable dorm which can host 8 people, and 3 tents for private or shared use.
