Guests will enjoy twice-daily sessions of #YCT and an evening restorative Hatha yoga, with plenty of time for you to rest and relax in the spring sunshine, enjoy the pool and space of the villa and explore the local town of Cala d’Or with its stunning beaches and laid back Mediterranean lifestyle.

All men are welcome on The Bearded Naked Yogi retreats, regardless of age, experience, sexuality or gender identity - our retreats are 100% inclusive.

It’s no problem if you haven’t done any kind of formal physical training* or yoga before, or if you’re an experienced fitness buff who knows their way around a yoga mat - everyone is welcome at this is one-of-a-kind fitness experience that is simply not to be missed.

Why Is This Event Naked?

Nude physical fitness training is one of the cultural hallmarks of Ancient Greece, and we’ll all have seen the stunning works of art highlighting these practices and be familiar with the fact that, originally, the Olympic Games were competed completely naked… but did you know the practice stretches back even further in history to the practices of Indian ascetics and yogis who embraced nudity as part of their practices in renunciation of material trappings and as a connection to their true selves?

Clothes-free living and the practice of naked training (also known as ‘gymnosophy’) is about deepening our understanding of ourselves, the world around us, and our place in that world - without the physical shield of clothes it's much easier to connect with that sense of self as we can more easily put aside the mental shield we all have in our daily lives.

We're all on the same level, so no judgement can be made about who we are by the outward signs we choose to cover ourselves with.

Training together and practising yoga whilst naked as a member of a group of other naked men is a life-affirming and deeply liberating experience.

The Location:

Cala d’Or is a coastal village on the southeast coast of the Spanish island of Mallorca (Majorca). It’s known for its yacht marina along Cala Llonga as well as its incredible coastline which is dotted with pine-fringed coves, including the main beach, Cala Gran.

On a hilltop to the north, the mediaeval Santueri Castle overlooks S’Horta village and the coastline. To the southwest, Mondragó Natural Park is rich in birdlife, including shags and ospreys.

Cala d’Or is widely considered to be the most beautiful coastal village on Mallorca, Wrapped around in an incredible coastline, the town and surrounding neighbourhoods have everything you could need to enjoy an afternoon of exploration, shopping or to enjoy a coffee and watch the world go by.

The Accommodation:

Villa Sol Naixent is a beautiful five-bedroom villa located close to the tranquil, turquoise waters of Cala Serena beach. 

Perched on the cliff tops overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and located in a quiet residential neighbourhood, it is considered one of the best places on Mallorca to watch the sunrise.

Thoughtfully arranged over two floors and close to all of the amenities offered in the wider Cala d'Or area, the villa boasts expansive indoor spaces, twin bedrooms and WiFi throughout, a stunning pool and sweeping views out over the pure blue seas of the Mediterranean.

With ample space for indoor and outdoor training sessions, the villa and its grounds provide a perfect home away from home for our guests with wonderful open gardens in which to feel the rays of the Springtime sun on your naked sun.

As well as two large and comfortable lounge areas, the villa comes with its own private pool and large first floor balcony for watching the ships sail by.

Each bedroom comes furnished as a twin room as standard, with plenty of closet space and either an ensuite bathroom or shared bathroom. Picture yourself of an evening… after a satisfying day of training and good food, settling down to sleep in comfortable surroundings with the fresh smell of briny Mediterranean air all around… absolute heaven!
