Burren Yoga and Meditation Centre, Ireland The yoga retreat centre was founded in 1999 by yoga teacher Dave Brocklebank who also runs the yoga retreat centre on the west coast of Ireland and also looks after this website. My background and aspirations I came from an academic background of studying psychology with a very strong motivation to help people to reach their potential. I received a B.A. and an M.A. in pure psychology in 1984 and began working with people who had breakdowns in their life and helping them to ease back into normal daily living within the community. After working in the field of psychology for a couple of years, i began to feel the draining effects of working with people who had mental difficulties, and i decided to leave this area of work as my own energies are very open and i pick up energies from others very easily. I retrained in computers and worked in this field for about 16 years. While working in IT, i continued to attend many workshops, trainings, and courses continuing to search for the ‘best therapies and techniques’ to help people to improve their lives and to empower them to reach towards their potential. There are a number of quality aspects that set the Burren Yoga and Meditation Centre on a different level to other retreat centres or other yoga holidays. The quality aspects of Burren Yoga include The best of yoga and meditation teachers Guided outings to visit local attractions The location is in the magical Burren The outdoor activities during the day Amazing vegetarian food by Paddi the cook A full programme of events for the whole day Sample the local cuisine during our guided outings We provide over 40 yoga and meditation retreats each year We have been running genuine eco yoga retreats since 1999 Genuine yoga centre which is only used for yoga and meditation retreats Centre founded to provide the best yoga teaching within the ideal retreat environment The centre was founded by yoga teacher Dave Brocklebank with the motivation of setting up a very comfortable retreat centre to be the best possible environment to learn yoga and meditation and to also to deepen the practice of those of you who already practice. Many yoga classes these days unfortunately are almost simply fitness classes, so Dave purposely has hand-picked the best yoga and meditation teachers who will teach you genuine yoga within a genuine yogic environment. The Best of Yoga and Meditation Teachers We have a team of 14 yoga and meditation teachers who teach all the eco yoga retreats. Most of the team have been teaching here at least 5 years, and some over 10 years. They are all outstanding teachers of yoga and meditation and also live their own lives according to yoga teachings The location is the magical Burren The Burren has to be seen to be believed. And one has to walk on the Burren rock, see the wildflowers, and experience the silence…. in order to fully appreciate the beneficial effects this special place on the west coast of Ireland can have on you. The Burren is steeped in ancient history and Poulnabrone dolmen is over 5,000 years old and the area is known for it’s huge numbers of ancient stone forts, dolmens, wedge tombs and thousands of ancient monuments. There are also internationally know places in the Burren such as the Cliffs of Moher, the traditional music haven of Doolin where one catches the ferry to the Aran Islands, the Doolin cave, the Aillwee caves and much more.
