About the school
Take time out of your busy schedule to enjoy a yoga and pilates holiday set in the beautiful seaside village of Loutro, Crete, the ideal place to improve your sense of relaxation and wellbeing.
Your friendly and enthusiastic instructor Alexandra will focus on you individually to ensure you gain the most from yoga and pilates practice.

The wonderful Sweet Water beach is a pleasant 70 minute walk (boat cruises also available) where you'll find a long virgin beach with crystal clear drinking water flowing from the 'white mountains'.
