The last 30 minutes will be dedicated to an optional relaxing yoga session. If you haven't done yoga before, that is OK. Our yoga expert, Peter provides a therapeutic style of yoga that you will all be able to perform and never forget. Have an exercise/yoga mat and loose-fitting/stretchable clothing for the session.
