El estudio

Donde practicas.

Un estudio construido a mano, abierto al valle por tres lados, con colchonetas, accesorios y mantas esperando. Vinyasa por la mañana, mientras el aire aún está fresco; Hatha y trabajo somático más lentos a medida que la luz se alarga. Cada sesión está diseñada para que los principiantes puedan seguirla y los practicantes de mucho tiempo se mantengan interesados.

The finished studio: open on three sides, mats set to the valley
River-stone walls, wood floors, and windows that hold the whole ridge
The pattern, drawn first, with river stones laid out on paper
Stone columns rising from the field, the beams laid down to place the wood floor 
The columns at dusk, the ridge behind them
The first walls go up, the llama unbothered
Every stone set by hand by masons from town
Inside the frame: stone, timber, and sky
The walls take their full height against the sky
Clouds spilling over the ridge, the walls still rising
The whole build, the whole valley
River stones, set in mortar, still wet
The floor goes down between the finished walls
Filling the panels between the columns
A finished panel, stone set in timber
Columns and timber, waiting for the roof
The ridge beam goes up
Rafters across the frame as the studio gets its roof
Lo que obtienes

Todo, una vez que llegues.

Una semana en la finca. Alojamiento, todas las comidas, cada sesión de yoga y cada excursión están incluidos en el precio, así que no hay nada que añadir.

  • A handbuilt cabin or glamping tent

    Adobe, brick, timber and river stone, raised by hand with the neighbours.

  • Daily yoga with a certified teacher

    Vinyasa in the morning, Hatha and somatic work in the late light. Beginners welcome.

  • All meals, plus a dinner in town

    Food from the garden and local places most days and nights, with the exception of one group night out in the town. 

  • Unlimited estate coffee

    Picked right outside the yoga studio. 93 points at a professional tasting.

  • Natural hot springs

    Mineral water that comes out of the mountain hot, down through the canyon.

  • The waterfall

    A forest walk in until you hear it before you see it. Cold, loud, worth standing under.

  • Horseback riding

    Ride trails on horses that know the ground better than you do.

  • Páramo walks

    Highland moor above the treeline, with tussock grass, lakes and thin bright air.

  • Room with a view, every night

    The beds face the windows, so the valley is the first thing you see each morning and the birds are the first thing you hear.

Un día aquí

Trae todos tus sentidos a la paz

Un ritmo, no un horario. La práctica enmarca el día; el intermedio es tuyo para pasarlo en la montaña o en un patio con una taza de café.

  1. 6:30

    Coffee on the patio

    Estate coffee, birds, and the valley waking up.

  2. 7:30

    Morning yoga

    Vinyasa on the mesa with the Andes on every horizon.

  3. 9:00

    Breakfast from the garden

    Eggs, fruit, bread, cheese from the neighbours.

  4. 10:30

    The day's excursion

    Hot springs, a waterfall, horses, the river or the páramo. You can also stay on the farm and do nothing.

  5. 17:00

    Slow evening practice

    Hatha and somatic work as the light goes long.

  6. 19:00

    Dinner together, then a fire

    And after that, a quiet so complete you'll hear it.

Estás en buenas manos

Quién te hospeda

Nicholas Zetts en la finca con una llama

Nicholas Zetts

Propietario, anfitrión y guardián de la tierra

Nicholas llegó a Cahuasquí en 2006 como voluntario del Peace Corps en agricultura sostenible, con la intención de quedarse dos años, y nunca se fue. La finca existe porque él y sus vecinos la construyeron a mano. Plantó café en tierra donde nunca se había cultivado; ese café ha obtenido desde entonces 93 puntos en una cata profesional. Él será quien lo sirva.
