I'm waiting for inspiration, to find the right
words to express what I experienced
during the last week but I can't find them. The words that come
to mind are all about the same: pure, power, positive, love, peace,
innerpeace, strength, beautiful (you, beautiful you!) warmth, sincere,
grace, delicious food, spiritual, and everything multiplied by
much...
Thanks for your hospitality, your inspiring lessons, your unending
patience during the photo shoots.
It's an honour to have met you. Give my love to Okka and safe some
for yourself.

“ An amazing place to escape to, in the
middle of our cold English winter. I arrived a Yoga novice and
leave more supple than I have been for 30 years and bitten by the
Yoga bug. The Yoga and meditation programme has really helped me
reconnect with my body and the detox programme included the most
delicious food as well as great education in nutritional and ayurvedic
principles. We have explored the local area with its lovely nature,
sensational beaches and superb mountain bike and walking trails.
Diana is a superb teacher at all levels. She and her team are wonderful
hosts and have created a really memorable and enjoyable experience”

"A week with Diana, with great yoga, absolutely delicious food,
lovely surroundings, walks by the sea and great massage - what
more can you ask for?
I can really recommend Diana - she has professional skill and a
warm heart. And the most lovely dog."

"If you need some time off to relax and
reconcile with your body, then this retreat is for you! I had such
a good time in a lovely setting, eating gorgeous food and getting
back in shape in a spectacular way. At the end of the week I felt
thinner, more relaxed and healthier than ever. It's the perfect
way to start losing weight and feeling good about yourself again,
mentally and physically, so do not hesitate!"

“We had peace in our heads and hearts.
I would like to say that the course is very dependent on you Diana
as a person. Your smile, always available, a lot of knowledge,
long yoga practise. All this together give the course the high
standard I mean it has.
Good luck! Love Terje”

“I had a fab time with Algarveyoga. I enjoyed
Diana’s style of teaching a lot and her calm confidence made
the week feel natural for me as a beginner. As well as the yoga,
felt overall the holiday lived up to my expectations. It was a
warm experience, from the accomodation, to the food, to the surfing.
The food was very tasty and even healthy, so can't complain and
I wasn't just being polite having second or sometimes third helpings.
Monte Velho was stunning. What more to say? I loved it all, thank
you’’

“When I searched the Internet for a retreat
in Europe, I actually hoped to find one that caters to my very
own needs. Not having been to a retreat before, I did not know
what to expect. Still a beginner in yoga and with hardly any praticeable
knowledge of ayurveda or its principles, I looked for a retreat
that would offer a "safe" haven. One that would allow
me to be me; one that would allow me to rediscover my heart, discover
new things, meet new people, in short to be inspired and reåjuvenated.
The retreat of Diana Jost gave me just that. I left the beautiful
Algarve retreat feeling more in touch with myself and others and
more aware of the importance of taking time and care of one's self.
Thank you Diana for your ability to make an entire group of people
feel special and revived!”
Warmest regards

“Thanks to the Algarve Yoga team for looking
after me so well on the Yoga & Detox retreat. My yoga progressed
exponentially during the week; thanks mostly to Diana's expert
tuition, patience and individual attention improving my poses.
The excellent quality food far outweighed my expectations for a
detox. The accommodation at Monte Velho was first class and its
location spectacular. Looking forward to going back and would highly
recommend to anyone.”

“Diana’s yoga lessons were just fantastic.
Her voice is very nice and relaxing to listen to, clear explanations
and great personal corrections. She was a real inspiration for
me to carry on with the yoga practise. Surfing was great fun, quiet
beaches and the instructors did a great job. The food was just
really really good and healthy –can’t find any other
words for this. Accommodation- absolutely my place, the style,
the atmosphere, the people, just beautiful.
It was a really smooth week and I will be back for sure.
Algarveyoga, keep on going like this.”

“In these 5 days personal coaching I learned
as much as I learned at school in 5 years. You are a very inspiring
person who is really living what she’s teaching”

"It was a place where I could stop for a
moment from my daily life, letting everything calm down. Meditation,
yoga, healthy food and being surrounded by great co-retreatholidayers
in the beautiful sunny setting of the Algarve made this a truly
wonderful experience. I would definitely love to come again."

“For a few years I've been searching for
a way to integrate some health into my daily busy life as a veterinarian.
I took some yoga classes in Holland and felt that this might be
the right pad, as I felt really peaceful and energetic after the
class and the day after. Nevertheless I felt these classes once
a week were not enough to stick to the healthy feeling, as my work
drained my energy out of me. I didn't have a clue (and sometimes
the discipline) how to do yoga at home for myself during the rest
of the week. Furthermore my cooking was uninspired and therefore
not the most healthy one. My overall health was getting worse.
During the yoga/ayurvedic retreat Diana showed us how to easily
incorporate yoga exercises and healthy food into daily routine.
I had a lot of fun on a beautiful location and went home feeling
healthier, happier and energetic. Thank you!!!”
Love, Helene from Holland (The Netherlands)

“The algarve yoga detox retreat truly exceeded
my expectations! Everything from the setting to the people (not
to mention the very yummy food!) was conducive to a successful
detox, and more than that, even made it easy! The location was
stunning, the yoga was inspiring and regenerating, and it was great
to have the team's great expertise to draw on. I feel very cleansed,
full of energy and my skin is glowing to prove it! I also feel
I have taken away some knowledge which will enable me to incorporate
some of the features from the retreat into my daily lifestyle...
so here's to ongoing health!”
Lots of love, Francesca Mastrojanni

“Estou muito feliz com o resultado deste
detoxing. Sinto-me com mais energia, mais feliz, com mais força,
autoconfiança e claro muito mais limpa.
As aulas da Diana são espectaculares, trabalhamos a respiração
o que é muito importante para mim pois como fumadora e limpeza
dentro dos meus pulmoés ao fazer ioga. No corpo também
sinto mais forte, mais força nas pernas e braços,
mas o mais importante foi me ter corricido a postura.
Penso que não tenho mais a dizer a não ser que melhor
era impossivel.
Obricado Diana por tudo, conscientemente ou inconscientemente ajudaste-me
muito durante esta semana. Obrigado Alexia é uma das melhores
cozinheiras que conheci.”

‘’very good news: a whole month after
this wonderful week in Portugal, I am still on the path you made
me re-discover! I am practising meditation daily - and that is
the real bliss -, my eating and drinking habits have so much improved
that I now get good energy from the food I take in, and I do exercises
regularly, although I have not found a Yoga course nor a Yoga teacher
in Luxembourg, as yet.
Thank you, Diana!”

“A wonderful experience at a beautiful
location with great company! Amazing how good the yoga was for
my body, mind and heart… and so nice to see a detox can
go together with such delicious food! I was warmed by the love,
care and dedication of the Algarveyoga crew, thanks so much! I
left feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated.”
