Nature and Nurture at Nambwa

NATURE AND NURTURE meet in the Heart of the World’s Largest Conservation Area

Imagine sitting in the yoga lotus position. Your eyes are closed and both your body and soul are relaxed. In the distance you can hear the soft slosh of something large moving through water. In a nearby tree a vervet monkey tries to mimic your pose, upside down. Suddenly, there is a vibration. It is the hypnotic sound of an instrument you have never seen nor heard before. Your body is in paradise and your spirit is following closely behind...

In Namibia’s north-eastern Bwabwata National Park, where the Kwando River meanders through a lush landscape, lies Nambwa Tented Lodge. The lodge is built on stilts to provide the elephant population right of way and is nestled among towering trees. The soothing effect of nature’s slow rhythm creates an atmosphere of relaxation and peace in complete wilderness.

This haven has now become the perfect location for exclusive Nambwa Yoga Safaris retreats. Nambwa offers Yoga daily as an additional holistic activity by Eva Eichhorn, who’s teaching is sharply intuitive but warm-hearted. Her classes aim to create lightness and strength within the heart, body and mind. She brings attention to balancing the nervous system, cultivating physical ease and encouraging a deep soul response towards the meditative qualities of practice.

While the yoga sessions provide nourishment for the soul, delicious carefully prepared meals nourish the body. With an eye for detail, the Nambwa staff see to their guests’ every need and ten tastefully decorated luxury tented suites provide incomparable comfort.

This is an experience like no other in the heart of the Zambezi wilderness, in the centre of KAZA (the Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area), where nature and nurture for the soul come together in awe-inspiring harmony.
