The Lord Howe Island Experience  BOOK HERE


.......testimonial from Glenda

"“K....... and I have decided that Lord Howe Island is our favourite spot to holiday”, says Glenda. “We have travelled with Lyn three times now and look forward to going again”. 

 Going as a couple works so well, if  your partner does not practice yoga. When I do yoga, K....... walks, cycles and captures the extraordinary beauty of this island paradise on camera. 

 

There is time for me to explore too; peering into the Herring Pools to see what the tide has brought in; snorkelling to find a huge variety of tropical fish; reef walking with Ian Hutton, (a noted local naturalist);  taking advantage of Ron’s Ramble to learn of the flora, fauna and history of the island;  or just sitting to ‘drink’ in the sheer peace and tranquillity of a deserted beach. IT’S MAGIC!"

Feedback

 

"How can I ever begin to thank you for the special journey you led us on and shared with us. Thank you so much for sharing your Lord Howe. She is a magical place – so much energy and beauty!  I so appreciate our walks and cherish our talks. I am so sorry that it ended in a fall for you. However, it is still one of the most magical and surreal days of my life. I hope your life will continue to flourish. May you be blessed with love and life" .....Maria, Brisbane 2010


"Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making me feel whole again. I have never experienced such a range of emotions than what I have here with you. Opening my heart is hard for me but I did it at Lord Howe and it is an overwhelming sensation. Thank you for coming into my life. You truly are an unique and beautiful soul. I know that you and I will travel many journeys together" - Natasha A , Brisbane

"Thank you for another remarkable experience! Every time I come with you I get so much, and more. I am so blessed that you have come into my life. Lord Howe is exquisite, the time I have had here has been awesome and I can't thank you enough for a sensational week! Thanks for being just……..you!" - Fiona W, New Zealand

“It was a wonderful yoga holiday with a great lot of people. The island is so special you get wrapped up in its uniqueness and its life style. You have to be there to understand its beauty and its ruggedness.  The island picks you up on arrival – nurtures you – and lets you down when you leave but allows you to take your personal experience, memories and feelings home with you to have forever.” - Ken C – Brisbane (Ken has been twice)

"The most wonderful week, full of peace and joy. Thank you Lyn." - Glenda & Kurts R, Bli Bli Sunshine Coast (who have been 3 times)
