Retreat, Rejuvenate and Relax - Yoga Retreat at the Wickaninnish Inn

March 6 , 2006

(Tofino) Christmas... then Valentines... then Spring Break... then rush, rush, rush to the next big event. These landmarks on the calendar are there to distract all of us from the endless grocery shopping, chauffeuring kids, cleaning and working. Taking time for ourselves and our partner, relaxing and enjoying each other's company is not mentioned anywhere above... It's time to change that.

Plan your retreat to the Wickaninnish Inn for a weekend of yoga and relaxation. The team at the Ancient Cedars Spa at the " Wick " has put together a Yoga Retreat for couples. Now is the time for couples everywhere to take a break and escape to the rugged West Coast of Vancouver Island.

Friday April 21 st to Sunday April 23 rd couples will travel to Tofino for a relaxing, rejuvenating weekend of yoga, massage and fabulous dining. Between the four yoga classes offered throughout the weekend, guests will enjoy the luxury and comfort of the Wickaninnish Inn. All rooms have views of the Pacific Ocean. Each guest will receive a one - hour massage from one of the professional practitioners at the Ancient Cedars Spa. Continental breakfasts, delivered to the guests' room each morning, are also included. Packages start at $1,350.00 per couple, based on double occupancy.

At the end of this wonderful weekend, participants in the retreat can join Tofino locals in honoring Mother Nature in a "Walk for the Earth". All proceeds raised from this interpretative walk along Chesterman will go to the Raincoast Interpretative Centre and Ecotrust.
