Burren Yoga Profile

---

The Centre offers weekend or week long retreats in the heart of the beautiful Burren from their base in Kinvara on the Clare/Galway border.

The Courses
The yoga and meditation courses are suitable for complete beginners to the more advanced pupil and are taught in a small group of 15 by one of a team of highly qualified yoga and meditation teachers.

The Yoga and Meditation Centre was founded in 1999 by Dave Brocklebank whose aim is to create an authentic Yoga experience in a relaxed environment.

The Accommodation
Comfortable neat accommodation either shared in a mini dormitory housing 4 to 6 people or, single or double rooms when available are offered and can be requested on booking. The centre can sleep 23 people but the numbers per course are restricted to 15 so that the choice of one of the three single rooms is almost always open to you. The decor is bright and the under floor heating keeps the rooms warm and cosy at night.

Meals
The vegetarian meals served are of the highest quality and cooked to perfection by chef Paddi whose experience gained while running the Seventh Heaven restaurant in Galway city brings a touch of class to each mealtime.

Getting There
Gort is only 6 miles from Kinvara and can be reached by train or bus and from there you can avail of a reduced fare taxi to the centre.

Bus Galway to Kinvara
There is one direct bus from Galway Bus Station to Kinvara but the centre advises against using this service as there is no reliable taxi from there.

The more straightforward service is the Expressway route #51 serving Galway/Gort/Ennis/Limerick/Cork which is hourly from early morning until around 6pm, see timetable here.
