The main Yoga instructor is Kathrin Woerner.

I had my first contact with Yoga 1987. After becoming a Yoga teacher in 1995 from the school of Sivananda I offered regular Yoga classes. In 1997 I moved to Portugal where I have been living and working provessionally as a Yoga teacher and therapist. I had my first meeting with horses when I was 13 years old. I had the luck to care and ride a horse for a year and soon became aware of the responsibility and commitment it requires. But then I also learned the give and take of this relationship, the dare and confidence, the mutual trust, the mutual rhythm of riding. We were as one with each other, sharing the pleasure.

To me, that feeling has been enhanced by my Yoga experience and both work so well together.
Yoga sharpens perception and sensations with breathing and physical exercises and make the horse riding experience much more in tune for both you and the horse.

.Henrique and Vera, the founders of the ecoresort Monte Velho

From the beginning, when Monte Velho opened its doors to the public in the summer of 2001, we felt that our mission was to provide our guests and friends, a different stay, focused on the connection with nature, and back to our origins. This spirit is increasingly neglected and forgotten by modern living and the crazy rhythm in witch we find ourselves nowadays.

The Holistic Riding and Yoga Course are complementing our natural orchestra and valorizing our programs in a holistic and meditative way.
Enjoy your stay!
