Genuine Yoga week
Dave -
"Burren Yoga is not like one of the other yoga holidays often in an exotic location with a picture of a lotus or a holiday brochure style picture of sea and beaches, and some vague description of the course.
And when one gets there, one find there is maybe a 2 hour yoga class in a hotel and then you are left on your own for the rest of the day, surrounded by strangers, often eating non-vegetarian food, sometimes drinking wine, feeling bored and at the end of the week realizing that your yoga practice has not really improved.
At Burren Yoga, we guarantee fully qualified and dedicated yoga teachers who live their lives according to yoga principles. They are not fitness teachers just recenlty trained on a short yoga course.

We have organised outdoor activities each day and its easy to get to know others in this informal relaxed atmosphere.
Your yoga practice will be greatly enriched by a week here at the yoga centre, and you will feel the benefits throughout your whole being when you return to your normal life."
Choice of type of yoga to best suit your needs at Burren Yoga

"This is the first yoga centre I have been to that organise activities for us outside the yoga classes and provide a comprehensive timetable for the whole day "
Paula from Dublin
"I loved the excellent yoga instruction and being taken into the Burren by Dave on all those adventures. Thanks to Dave, Paddi and Granville"
Emma from the UK
"Since I have started to come on yoga courses at Burren Yoga and Meditation Centre, my practice has come on leaps and bounds! The individual attention that one gets on one of these courses is 10 times more than the usual weekly classes I go to. Keep my usual place in the yoga room for me ;-)"
Steve from London
"The care and attention to detail of how the Burren yoga centre is built with comfort and also a homely feeling is a credit to you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
Brian from Cork
"I am a dancer and have experienced many massages over the years. I have never had a better massage than the deep tissue massage given by Laura at Burren Yoga. Thank you Laura, and thank you Dave for creating this beautiful centre. I will be back ;-)"
Elsa from New York
"My grand father was from Ireland and this summer retreat was a great way to spend my first week in Ireland among like minded people, and thanks a bunch for all those great tips on places to see on my second week. Fantastic yoga, warm friendly people, and what a beautiful country! Slan ;-)"
Delores from US
"This is my fourth visit to Burren Yoga and each time I am blown away by the quality of the teachers. Dave seems to know all the good teachers and attract them to teach at the centre. This for me is the most important aspect of any yoga centre."
Dave from London
"I did not expect the choice of things to do each day. This is the best fun holiday i have ever had!!!"
Kirsten from Carlow
"It's been 4 years since my last visit to Burren Yoga (busy busy busy) and I can't believe the improvements and enhancements to the centre. The new comfy mattresses make it harder to get out of bed, the crisp Egyptian cotton bedlinen making staying in bed more enticing... If it was not for the great yoga teachers especially Ciara, i could just stay in bed all day!!!
Sleepy Deirdre from Dublin ;-)
