Katja and Paul Maycock

We are the creators of Yoganity, through which we run retreats all over the world.

What is Yoganity?

Yoganity (consisting of "Yoga" and "Humanity" and maybe a bit of "organic" and "sanity") describes a new kind of understanding yourself as holistic, natural, tuned in, aware and informed.

 

It also stands for the believe that a positive life is possible for everyone and everyone has a right to it.

The philosophy of Yoganity (positive life for everyone) flows straight into what we are doing and why:

  • Yoga (union) opens us up to the bigger picture,

  • Energy healing connects us to who we truly are and to each other

  • Sustainability ensures that we live out the unity in our everyday lives.

 

Become a part of the positive movement!
