Come to Sligo for a yoga adventure, February 2027!
Dear Yoga Friends,
Would you like a little yoga adventure to Sligo… of course you would! We have a workshop on Saturday 7th February, 1pm-3.30pm and you are invited to come. The workshop takes place in the gorgeous, brand new, purpose-built and beautifully finished Yoga Hub studio in Sligo town. Our co-host Darren is a local and an expert in breath. Please book the workshop directly with Yoga Hub and then get in touch with me to plan the rest of your adventure!
€49 (20% unlimited member's discount)
Please book directly with Yogahub here.
More about the workshop below, more about the adventure here.
Sligo town is about 2.5 hours drive from the M50 so easily done on the morning of the workshop, leaving around 10am. However, I suggest a 2-night stay, leaving Dublin around 12 noon Friday and leaving Sligo around 12 noon on Sunday. I suggest sharing a mini-bus there and back so nobody has to drive, I can also assist with drivers and car-pooling if that is preferred. Sligo also has a great Dublin bus.
Two gorgeous hotels are beside each other, a 5-minute walk from the studio, and both are offering discounts to workshop participants. The Address and The Glasshouse Hotel, please budget €140-€180 for your hotel room and breakfast. The Address has an amazing spa, the Glasshouse has nicer views and is a bigger hotel. The Glasshouse has options for shared rooms to keep things affordable, three single beds are in some of the rooms.
Flow of the retreat will look something like this:
Arrive Sligo 3pm Friday. Settle in, walk around town, nap, grab a cuppa or a snack. Meet at the lobby of the Glasshouse around 6.30pm to walk to the nicest pub in town for the freshest Donegal seafood (and all the usual on the menu!), the pub also has live music on a Friday night.
Saturday morning, meet at 8am in the Glasshouse for sunrise morning meditation followed by breakfast.
10am. Meet at the lobby for travel to the Hot Box sauna at Rosses Point, Voya Seaweed Baths and Sauna at Strandhill or book into the Spa at the Address. (Both saunas are ten minutes away from Sligo town).
12 noon. Light lunch or snack.
Meet at the lobby at 12.45pm for the 5 minute walk to Yoga.
1pm - 3.30pm Yoga.
4-6pm Relax, potter around town, nap!
6.30pm meet for dinner in The Glasshouse. Maybe consider hitting the town for some ceol agus craic after dinner or hit your luxurious pillow for a long sleep.
Sunday morning: sleep late and have a late breakfast, or meet for breakfast at 8.30am and then at the lobby at 10am for another sauna experience. Rosses Point and Strandhill are both worth experiencing and these guys do sauna well!
12 noon. Depart for Dublin.
Your Next Steps:
Book your workshop directly with Yogahub and then let me know.
Decide your hotel, The Address has the Spa onsite if you feel that will suit you better, I will stay in the Glasshouse. Both offer discounts, you just mention Yogahub. *chat to me about this.
Decide your transport and please let me know early if you are interested in the minibus option, we’ll have a pick up point at Ballyroan Community Centre, and one other if it’s helpful.
Have a peek at the Voya website, seaweed baths, massages and treatments will need to be booked early, Please book your own preferred treatment early to avoid disappointment. Or let me know if you’re happy to go with group sauna. Similarly, it might be helpful for you to book in with The Address in advance if you fancy a treatment, they have lovely 30 minute and 60 minute options with use of the gorgeous Spa. Reminder, spa/sauna time is 10am-12noon both days and we also have a 4pm-6pm window on Saturday.
Tell yourself you are living your best life, you live on the nicest island in the world, and you are about to embark on a transformative learning journey while having some fun!

Further exploration into the power of the breath coming up, join us!
We touch on it all the time in class... this is a really interesting deep-dive. Darren will take us through a classroom-style learning journey that is immersive and practical. I'll be leading us through a yoga practice that supports that learning. Something brand new, two experts from different fields converging in yoga. Something for the curious mind, with benefits for body, mind and breath long beyond the workshop.
The workshop takes place in the gorgeous Yogahub studio in Sligo town so we have the supportive environment and the amazing props of the beautiful studio.
