This is a fabulous opportunity to run my Yoga Centre in the pretty Spanish village at the same time earning a wage.
In exchange you will be able to experience Spanish culture. October is fiesta month. And also our village fiesta around the 12th October which lasts for 3 days..
We are 40 mins from the beautiful Almerian coastline including Mojacar, Garrucha and Vera. The stunning Cabo de Gata national park is about an hour away.
This host offers accommodation and payment.
I need a qualified Hatha Yoga teacher to cover my classes whilst I’m away on teacher training courses/retreats to take over the general help of our small Yoga Centre. (not necessarily with experience as here you will have the opportunity to gain some)
