hip yoga : venue

Imagine a luxuriously and stylishly converted olive mill set in the idyllic setting of the foothills of Andalucia's spectacular  and rugged mountain range, the Sierra Nevada. The Valley of Lecrin (Moorish for 'happiness') is as stunning as it is undiscovered; this unspoiled part of the Andalusian countryside remains unknown to most Spaniards, let alone the English. With the truly dramatic background of the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada and the foreground of sleepy, white-washed villages set amongst the ubiquitous citrus, almond and olive groves, Molino Bajo is a very special place to stay.

For 200 years the centre of the valley's olive business Molino Bajo has been designed with a heavy Moorish/Moroccan influence and has some very interesting and quirky design ideas and finishes, whilst retaining many of the original features of its milling past, integrating them organically into the house. As featured in Conde Nast Traveller May 2004 '10 Great Villas in Spain', Molino Bajo is the ultimate chill-out retreat in the most tranquil of locations - all in all the perfect venue and backdrop for Hip Yoga. Hip Yoga is running over a six week period in 2005 from May 7th to June 18th, with individual weeks available Saturday to Saturday.
