Keela Yoga Farm
Keela is a vision of two passionate Yogis, Laurence Manchee and Kimberly Wright who want to see a healthier, happier world through the practice of Yoga, sustainability and producing food. Whilst working in the rat race, Kimberly and Laurence always struggled to keep up their yoga practice, reduce their carbon footprint and to be as healthy and stress free as much as their hectic lives would allow them.
They have been teaching yoga, growing their own food and traveling and learning where and when they can. They are now making the moves to make their plans a reality. In early 2016 they will travel to Central Portugal, with plans to buy a plot of land. This land will then be transformed into a self-sustainable yoga retreat and eco-farm. Using permaculture principles, they will turn agricultural land into a food forest which will enable them to grow a wide range of edibles, providing the kitchen with healthy organic ingredients. They will generate their own energy and build a beautiful yoga shala for daily yoga practice. Accommodation will be built for volunteers to come and experience sustainable collaborative living in a peaceful and natural setting. Throughout the year there yoga teachers will come to Keela to host yoga and wellness retreats.
