The center is located in the Santa Cruz mountains midway between Watsonville and Gilroy, atop Mount Madonna with a spectacular view of all Monterey Bay. The 355 acres of open meadows and redwood forests include hiking trails, volleyball, tennis, and basketball courts, a small lake for swimming, a hot tub, a gymnasium, and massage and herbal steambath facilities.

Most important, of course, is ambiance and setting. The resident staff are students of yoga who take pride in their service. The atmosphere is peaceful and the setting is beautiful, from the magnificent vista of the bay to the surrounding redwood hillsides to the craftsmanship and style of the buildings themselves.

This retreat is desgned as a period of intensive study for serious students of yoga. It is suitable for teachers, teachers-in-training, and students who practice a minimum of one hour per day. This practice should include inversions and backbends as well as standing poses, forward bends and twists. Janet will introduce some of the more "advanced poses" not often taught in regular classes. Prior exposure to pranayama is necessary.

Please call the Iyengar Yoga Institute with any and all questions regarding the retreat or visit Mount Madonna Center’s website at www.mountmadonna.org.
