Sacred Sound

10–17 July 2027 | Suryalila, Spain

A week to slow down and savour life.

Join us for a week of deep rest, joyful practice, and meaningful connection at our favourite retreat home, Suryalila. This is a space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and immerse in the timeless practices of yoga, meditation, philosophy, and sound.

 

Meet your Yoga Guides

Gem and Will have hosted over 20 retreats across the UK and Europe, including Spain, the Balearic Islands, Italy, and Portugal. Their yoga blends vinyasa, somatics, yin, restorative, myofascial release, sound healing, and meditation, often sprinkling in mantra, tantra, Chinese principles of qi gong and Buddhist psychology.

As a couple, they move in harmony, balancing feminine and masculine energy in ways that feel intuitive and natural. Their teaching is attentive, accepting, and authentic, inviting you to be at ease.

Itinerary

Each morning begins with meditation followed by an energising yoga practice, setting the tone for a day of presence and intention. As the week unfolds, our daily yoga philosophy seminars invite you to explore the wisdom that lies at the heart of yoga.

These teachings go far beyond the physical practice, offering practical insights into cultivating greater clarity, resilience, compassion, and ease in everyday life. Whether you're new to yoga philosophy or have studied before, these sessions are designed to be engaging, accessible, and relevant to modern living.

Each day we'll gather in the magical Forest Shala for our daily Sacred Sound Journey. Surrounded by nature, you'll be immersed in the healing vibrations of gong and other therapeutic instruments, creating space for profound relaxation and meditation. Sound has a unique ability to quiet the busy mind, soothe the nervous system, and invite a deep sense of peace, allowing the experiences of the day to settle and integrate.

Throughout the week you'll enjoy nourishing meals, time to rest by the pool, wander the beautiful Andalusian countryside, or simply be still. There is no pressure to do anything other than honour what you need.

This retreat is an invitation to step away from the demands of daily life and return home feeling rested, inspired, and deeply connected—to yourself, to nature, and to a supportive community of like-minded people.

Whether you're seeking relaxation, personal growth, or simply a week to breathe more deeply, we'd love to welcome you to this very special place that has become our home away from home.

Testimonials

  • An exceptional, incredible and deeply rejuvenating retreat at the beautiful Suryalila. Gem and Will are two outstanding yoga instructors bringing a depth of yoga knowledge to the retreat. Their commitment and exclusive individual passion for everyone on the retreat would be hard to equal.

  • The setting was magnificent, the food was fabulous and the camaraderie was amazing.

  • My absolute favourite sessions were the Forest Sound Gongs. Magic!

  • Excellent tutors throughout the whole week. Thoughtful, encouraging and humorous at all times. Felt sad when it was all over.

  • I think there's a good variety of yoga - between the teaching of philosophy and asana and meditation and sound bath and all things cosmic and magical. It was a wonderful introduction in to the world of yoga and it has inspired me and made me want to dive even deeper.

  • Amazing, unique and bespoke retreats. For anyone who has forgotten how to connect with themselves, joy and laughter then this will take you forwards to enjoying yourself again!

  • Suryalila offers a nurturing, safe and supportive environment where it feels slightly detached from normaility, allowing you to be vulnerable and maybe accept a different perspective.

  • Hard work, with much learning everyday, yet everything feels possible and achievable throughout with the brilliant support of Gem & Billy (& the group). The retreat locations are stunning, surrounded by nature, with great facilities.
