FAQs

1. Do I need to be experienced in yoga to join?
Not at all! Our retreats are designed for all levels, from complete beginners to seasoned practitioners. Every class is gentle, adaptable, and supportive.

2. How do I get to the retreat?
Les Daurins is located in the Charente region of France. The nearest airport is Bordeaux (1.45 hours by car). Guests can come direct to Les Daurins by themselves or we will arrange pick-up and transfers from Bordeaux airport between 11am and 2PM on the first day of your retreat booking.

3. Can you fly directly to Bordeaux from Canada?
Some airlines offer seasonal direct flights from some Canadian airport (not Vancouver). Most often, guests fly direct to a major European international airport hub such as Paris, London, Frankfurt and Amsterdam and then connect to Bordeaux Airport.  

4. What should I pack?
Comfortable clothing for yoga and relaxation, swimwear for the pool, something cozy for cool evenings, and walking shoes if you’d like to explore the countryside. Yoga mats and props are provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own if you prefer.

5. Are meals vegetarian or can you accommodate dietary needs?
All meals are fresh, seasonal, and have vegetarian options, with locally sourced ingredients. Availability of products to accommodate specialized dietary needs is not easy in France. Please reach out before booking to confirm your dietary needs can be met.
