Winter Yoga Day Retreat | Sussex

Sunday 25th January 2026 | Open for booking.

A yoga day retreat in the Sussex

Join our Winter Day Retreat at The Yoga Garden — tucked away in the beautiful Sussex countryside, just an hour from South West London. It’s close enough for an easy escape, yet it feels a world away from the city. Set within the Knepp Rewilding Project, this wild haven has been returned to nature — now home to free-roaming deer, rare birdlife and ancient oak trees. As deep winter settles in, this is the perfect moment to pause, rest and reset. This retreat offers space to unplug from the everyday, restore your energy, and prioritise self-care.

"I've now been on three of Hannah's day yoga retreats at The Yoga Garden in Sussex and wholeheartedly recommend them. It is a perfectly balanced day with hatha yoga, yin yoga and yoga nidra plus meditation alongside a beautiful long walk round the area and a delicious lunch. I came away feeling totally relaxed and for the next few days I felt really rejuvenated and energetic. The setting of Knepp Estate is beautiful in any weather. 100% recommended." — Ailsa

Yoga will take place a Mongolian yurt, with a wood burning stove to keep us cozy. After a welcome tea, guided meditation and journaling, we will flow through a dynamic hatha vinyasa flow practice, followed by breathwork and meditation. At lunchtime we will share a delicious veggie hot meal and dessert! You can then choose to stay curled up by the fire or to wrap up warm and take a guided walk around the stunning rewilded countryside. As it starts to get dark we will return to our yurt for candlelit yin yoga, guided yoga nidra relaxation and head massage.

This intimate retreat — limited to just 12 guests — is open to all levels. It’s a wonderful opportunity to deepen your practice, connect with others, and enjoy the benefits of a small, supportive group.

Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like to book a place.

10:45 | Welcome tea

Settle in, enjoy a Pukka herbal tea and meet the group.

11:00 | Guided journalling and intention setting

11:15 | Morning hatha vinyasa yoga

We’ll start with slow, inviting the body to move with curiosity and ease, then gradually build momentum — flowing from pose to pose in an uplifting, dynamic, breath-led sequence.

12:30 | Meditation and breathwork

Group discussion will deepen your understanding of meditation and breathwork, while guided practices and self-led exploration offer space to put your learning into action.

13:00 | Lunch

Nourishing and comforting veggie lunch and dessert.

14:00 | Walk or rest

Join our guided walk in the heart of the Knepp Rewilding Project, or relax by the fire with a cup of tea, reading, journalling, or snoozing!

15:30 | Afternoon yoga: Candlelit yin yoga

As dusk falls, we’ll light the candles, wrap up warm, and sink into the magic of Yin. A series of floor-based poses invites gravity to do the work — gently releasing the deeper layers of connective tissue and fascia, and softening hidden pockets of tension. Hands-on assists and soothing massage will be offered throughout to help you fully let go.

16:45 | The ultimate shavasana

Calming breathwork, guided relaxation, yoga nidra and head massage with Neil's Yard Bee Lovely Lotion.

17:30 | End of retreat
