Summary
Located in a small surf village immersed in the forest of the Sintra mountains, Guincho Wayra House offers a combination of yoga sessions, healing therapies, and outdoor activities, as a true sanctuary for the senses. The philosophy and dynamics of the house are inspired by the Inca civilization where the four elements, Air, Water, Fire, and Earth, are fully present. Wayra in Quéchua, the language of the Incas means wind; energy flowing and raising, just like this place and its unique holistic power.
