A one day yoga and nature retreat with sauna and swimming at the Yoga Garden on the Knepp Estate, West Sussex

Saturday 18 April 2026

10.15am-4.15pm

£125

(£5 per ticket goes to Medical Aid Palestine)

A beautiful day of yoga, nature, sauna, swimming, delicious food, journalling and sharing in a circle.

The Yoga Garden is a beautiful yurt studio on the Knepp Estate, a rewinding project near Horsham in West Sussex. It’s an inspiring place to be, full of wild nature - you’ll come away feeling more plugged in to the natural world, and more grounded after a day out of busy everyday life.

We’ll start the day with more dynamic movement, followed by a yin/restorative yoga session and an exhilarating wood-fired Nordic style sauna from Marianne at Kindred Sauna. There’s the option to cool off in the outdoor shower in between sauna sessions, or plunge or swim in the lake.

A delicious lunch will be provided by Ali from the Yoga Garden, hopefully eaten outside if the weather is good. Then we’ll head back into the yurt for some journalling and a sharing circle before we close.

Our plan for the day

  • 10.15am - tea + welcome

  • 10.30am - breath practice + dynamic yoga

  • 11.30am - first group for sauna and swim, second for yin/restorative yoga

The most gorgeous day of movement, walking, food and rest, with the space held so beautifully by Chloe. I actually felt a bit of my old self resurface! I feel truly refreshed and can’t wait to come back to magical Knepp for another retreat.
