Location
Center
Your retreat will be guided by artist, yogi, and horsewoman Sandra - Sarah Nour - Jelly. She started exploring yoga in 2001 in Amsterdam.
In 2009 - following her inner wish of living her passions for the arts and horses- she packed her brushes and yoga mat, put on her horse boots, and came for a sabbatical to Petra, Jordan.
When her horse got pregnant without her consent she decided to stay and let the horses lead her way.
It was the beginning of her adventure of discovering and expressing herself in the most authentic way.
As language, culture, and community were totally foreign to her she had to rely on her intuition, creativity, and personal power to create a new life that was guided by her passions.
Yoga and her horses have been her tools for transforming her life from the Amsterdam advertising expat world to the Bedouin horse & craft world. It has helped her to balance Mind & Heart and become fully present in the moment; to be powerful invulnerability.
Sandra invites you to listen deeply, honor your body and explore all aspects of yoga in a creative, fun, inspiring, and balancing flow of yoga. Through yoga, Sandra wishes to invite you to trust yourself and let the practice unfold from inner wisdom, an inner movement that serves you.
Bringing fluidity and authenticity to your practice. Just like life, let it flow, be fully absorbed in the breath and you will see the beautiful gifts of the present moment.
Yoga expands your inner awareness and nature immediately reflects this increased awareness hence providing valuable insights on how to transform your reality and allow magic to move you.
