Subject: Scuba Diving & Yoga Adventure


Join us for an unforgettable Scuba Diving and Yoga Adventure, March 7 - 14, 2009 on Dominica, the nature island of the Caribbean.

We are thrilled to hold this retreat at Jungle Bay, one of the world's top 10 luxury eco resorts (Forbes magazine, 2007). Dominica was the first country to be Green Globe benchmarked and the owners of Jungle Bay are leaders in ecologically and culturally sustainable tourism.

You will enjoy diving the pristine reefs and spectacular 1,000-foot walls of Scotts Head Marine Reserve. The reefs of Dominica teem with life--Dominica was rated the #1 location for both healthy reefs and a healthy marine environment (Sport Diver magazine, 2006). You will have the chance to do a variety of dives including wall dives, drift dives, and a night dive. We are including the Project AWARE ecology course for everyone.

If you're not an avid diver you can snorkel with us, or skip any day's dive trip and enjoy the many different hikes offered by Jungle Bay. Or you can just lounge around at the resort, enjoying the relaxing scenery, yoga studio, outdoor pool, and spa treatments. This is a great trip for a non-diving significant other.

We have some fun non-diving activities planned for everyone, such as challenging jungle hike to Boiling Lake (a flooded fumarole whose waters really do boil) or a scenic ocean kayak trip, along with a whale watching trip--humpback whales frequent Dominica and we will be there during the prime season. There will be numerous activities for everyone--whether or not you dive.

The yoga on this trip is unique also--you will learn yoga routines specifically designed to help strengthen the body for diving and restore the body after a day of diving. You will learn some applied anatomy and body mechanics of diving. We will also teach you breathing and meditation exercises to help you stay calm underwater for a more relaxed and enjoyable dive experience. We will also hold yoga philosophy discussions and the application for divers.

Last, but for some not least, you will enjoy the wonderfully healthy cuisine of Dominica, using local ingredients. Mangos, coconuts, bananas, papayas, pineapple, coffee, cocoa, sugar cane, and root vegetables grow along with 1,000 species of flowering plants. If you've never eaten a ripe mango plucked from the tree yourself, its juice dripping down your chin, you're missing one of the greater pleasures in life.

We sincerely hope you can join us on this adventure. This exclusive trip is limited, so sign up early. Please visit http://www.8thElementYoga.com/yoga_scuba/retrat/ for lots more information about this trip and to download the registration form. Some dates to keep in mind:
