October 31st - November 5th
Oru El Saltador
Depths of Yoga Retreat with Sammy Rainbow Furnival
This retreat is an invitation to slow down and take time to explore yoga in its fuller depth, both on and off the mat. Mornings will begin with pranayama, followed by asana, weaving together vinyasa and hatha practices to build strength, steadiness and awareness. Evenings will offer a gentler rhythm, with meditation, yin and guided journaling to support rest, reflection and integration.
Each day we’ll explore a new philosophical theme, introduced within the physical practice and then gently unpacked through conversation and reflection, looking at how these teachings can be meaningfully woven into everyday life. Afternoons will include optional sangha gatherings, creating space to come together for open discussion around the spiritual and philosophical foundations of yoga and how they land for each of us individually.
This retreat offers a chance to dive beneath the surface of yoga, experiencing a range of practices while also exploring the wisdom that underpins them. It is a space for inquiry, curiosity and connection.
Nothing on the retreat is mandatory and you are encouraged to listen inwardly and follow what you feel called to, trusting your own rhythm throughout the experience! Whilst all are welcome on this retreat, we recommend having attended one of Sammy's classes here at Oru first and that you aim to have a minimum of 6 months experience attending yoga classes.

You will need to book your own flights for this retreat. For this retreat we recommend flying to and from Almeria airport. There is also the option to fly to Murcia but please note that it is a longer drive to this airport (roughly 2 hours). Granada is also 2 hours away for additional flight options.
If you want to spend a little longer in the area, or extend your trip, we really recommend this - there’s so much to enjoy in the area!
Once at either airport, we will arrange taxi transfers to collect you (this will be an additional cost) or you are welcome to hire a car if you wish. Almeria airport is 45 minutes drive away, Murcia is 1 hour 45 minutes away.
-
Once you have chosen your airport of choice, we can help arrange taxi transfers for you direct to the venue.
Almeria - 45 minute drive
Murcia - 1 hour 45 minute drive
Granada - 2 hour drive
If you want to make your trip longer and a little different, you can get a high speed train from Barcelona to Almeria (opening Spring 2026)!
