Host & guide | Linda Champ
Linda is your host & yoga guide for the duration of your stay.
Linda started her career as a hands on holistic therapist, working in 5 star Spas in Ireland. Pursuing her quest for knowledge about body wellbeing she went on to study Nutritional Therapy in 2008 and subsequently travelled to Austria in 2009 to complete her Yoga Teacher Training. She dived in to an intense program, waking up at 6 in the mornings to complete 3 hours of Yoga, 6 days a week, followed by full days of theory. This experience taught her that it is equally important to have a healthy mind as it is to have a healthy body. To finish her training, she wanted to be able to help people with injuries so she completed a 2 year course in Cork as a Neuromuscular and Physical Therapist.
She has travelled extensively teaching yoga in countries such as New Zealand, Costa Rica, Austria, Portugal and Spain.
Charming in every way, Linda will greet you on arrival and guide you through every stage of the retreat in your ‘home from home’ for the duration of your stay.
