Relax your mind. Energise your body. Refresh your soul.
The Experience
We will begin with a 1hr 30mins flowing blend of Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga outdoors overlooking the stunning Crystal Lake and Ancient Woodland. Focusing on breathing, warming the body and calming the mind.
Following this we will go for a soothing open water swim in the beautiful lake, refreshing the body and the soul.
OWA Crystal Lake has been designed with easy access slopes in and out of the water.
There is a 1.2m shallow area which has astroturf underfoot for those who are not confident to swim part of the main route. You are very welcome to swim in this area or just float and relax.
There are 2 routes to the main lake. The full route and the shorter route.
Our lifeguard on duty will give you all a briefing as a group before you enter the water lakeside.
The swim session is 1 hour - you do not have to stay in the water for the full session, just do what feels right for you.
