Yurt holidays and courses – learn something new!
Posted by admin on Jul 8, 2010
Maybe you want to learn something new and stretch yourself a little while you’re enjoying your next holiday. Yurt holidays have an eclectic mix (as expected!) of courses on offer for you to choose from if this is your thing.
Yurt lovers tend to have a strong connection with nature. So many of the courses offered centre around this theme.
Some courses work in direct contact with nature for example bush crafts and bush activities. You may want to learn more about living in the wild, how to forage, gather and cook wild bush foods. You may want to learn how to light a fire without using lighters or matches or even learn how to make shelters.
Or perhaps you have the desire to know more about your local natural environment by learning about the flora and fauna or a course on bird watching.
Cooking courses are quite popular on yurt holidays. From simple fresh break making courses to learning to cook wild bush foods or learning how to cook over the trusty bush fire.
Being in the nature, working with the element of wood is also a popular theme. Courses on offer include bushcraft skills such as spoon carving and bow making.
Naturally yurt holidays have one very important course on offer: how to build yurts. If you are interested in making your own yurt, many yurt holiday sites offer yurt building courses from how to find wood, steam wood and how to assemble the yurt.
Being an eclectic bunch, yurt lovers tend to have many healing and alternative forms of therapy courses on offer. Such as massage, shamanism and even sound therapy. Then there are the classic mind body disciplines such as yoga, meditation and if you have the courage… fire walking!
Art often features on the agenda at yurt holidays with courses on mosaics and painting. Even music workshops are available like music technology courses.
Yurt holidays are the perfect way to take a holiday and learn something new at the same time. Simply google “yurt holidays” and the your desired course to find what you are looking for.
