France - Activities

La Source” is 5 minutes from the village and is surrounded by the most stunning, open alpine landscape on the edge of the largest Nature Reserve in the Hautes Savoie. The high ranges, including Mont Blanc, are just beyond. In the Spring, Autumn and Summer the mountain biking, climbing and walking is exceptional. From the moment the spring flowers explode till the autumn leaves fall off the trees the beauty of the Alps really starts to amaze and there's lots of fun activities that get us right into the middle of it.

Column 2 Content: 

The Alps is a green wonderland for explorers of all ages. Donkey treks into the mountains are a must!. There really is something for everyone - from horse riding to rapelling, flying to fishing, architecture to archery.


In winter, the skiing is exceptional with the Grand Massif 5 minutes drive from the door (250kms linked with Flaine), and the Portes du Soleil 25 minutes drive. The classic Vallee Blanche is an easy day trip but the Grand Massif has some secrets to rival the best of Chamonix!

France - Yoga Teacher

Saskia Anley-McCallum

 

Saskia grew up in 4 continents which gave her an open mind and love of people. As a child who had never even heard of yoga, she would practise lotus, nauli (stomach churning) and head stand... and on her first trip to India at age 20, she realised that India was definitely her spiritual home! 2 years later, she found a book on yoga and never stopped practising - that was 17 years ago! She has practised all kinds of yoga and is very interested in yoga philosophy. Her teacher training is in Hatha and her teaching style mixes Hatha and Ashtanga.

Column 2 Content: 

Saskia spent many years as an Outward Bound Instructor running personal development courses in the States, South Africa and Costa Rica. She is passionate about the outdoors and lives with her husband and 2 children in the French Alps. Her classes focus on solid alignment while bring a relaxed strength into the postures, bring balance and heart-opening into the sequences. She has a solid grounding in mediation and pranayama and her classes will leave you feeling fresh, invigorated and and relaxed at the same time.
