HIRE THE YURT

If you have a skill, a practice, a treatment, a product or an idea you would like to share, TheYurt offers a calm, intimate and welcoming space, to gather. It can be hired to run a weekly class, a training programme, or a once off workshop/event. Our unique venue to hire in Kildare includes The Yurt, The Annex, the Garden and a free parking area.

Capacity

Lying on mats, TheYurt can comfortably accommodate 14 people.

For a seated event, up to 40 people is possible.

The Driveway has space for up to max. 10 cars.

THE YURT

A yurt is a circular, portable tent, with a wooden or bamboo frame covered in felt or skins, with a cone shaped roof. They are traditionally inhabited by nomadic groups in Central Asia. Our yurt, here in Kilmead, is derived from the original but modified to suit the Irish climate.

To me, the circular shape of The Yurt symbolises the unbroken rhythms of nature – such as the earth’s orbit around the sun, the movement of the tides, the seasons, our own circadian rhythms and our breath. There are no windows in TheYurt, so when inside you can really take yourself away from the distractions and the load of the world outside. The shape gives it a feeling of community and shared purpose. A place for healing, grounding and self-discovery, like sitting in a giant nest, being nurtured by the natural environment that surrounds it.

The Yurt has several power points. It is lit with LED lighting, lamps and candles and natural light flows in through the dome and the door. Infrared heaters, provide clean, safe heat.

The Annex

Next to TheYurt, The Annex, consists of a main room (5x3m), a small kitchen and a toilet/shower room. The main room can be used as a treatment room, a breakout room during workshops, art room, or a lunch area. It has a new double sofa bed, so it is possible for the workshop facilitator to stay overnight if running a weekend course. The Annex opens out onto a patio area which faces TheYurt.

The Garden

TheYurt has its own small private garden, however, you may have access to our larger garden if needed. I often take the mats out into the larger garden on a warm day for group meditation. There is also a fire pit and logs available.

If you are interested in hiring TheYurt, please make an enquiry, stating what your event is, when it is, how many people you wish to host and for how long. We are happy to work with you to make your class or event successful.

TESTIMONIALS

Having been to TheYurt for a SoundBath I can’t recommend it highly enough. The setting and the yurt are both beautiful and Pam is such a kind and lovely lady.

I really enjoy Pamela’s online classes. Her knowledge of yoga and her understanding & friendly nature make for a really great class.

Walking into TheYurt feels like coming home after a long day at work. Pamela’s warm greeting will lift your spirit before you even reach your mat. During the class, you can really forget about everyone else around you and be present for yourself. Pamela is a wonderful and wise teacher who will gently guide you on your yoga journey. The Yurt is now my happy place.

I am a 79yr old woman and have always tried to stay active. However during the past 10 months, if it were not for my yoga class with Pamela once a week, I would probably have become a couch potato!! Her online yoga classes are fantastic, you're in the comfort of your own home and it's one hour of BLISS.

I took up yoga a little over a year ago to improve my flexibility and strength after 40 years spent behind a desk. I joined Pamela’s Yoga in the Yurt virtual classes in November and have loved them! Her classes are clear, progressive, varied and fun. She always spends time stretching and warming up the joints before moving to the lesson of the week, each of which has a theme - hips, spine, balance, etc. - and finally closes with a relaxation which is truly relaxing. She is very clear on how to do each pose and alternatives to make it easier or harder. I also appreciate that she never assumes you know yoga poses or terms, never makes it competitive (it is for YOU) and is always upbeat. Despite my novice status and general lack of strength, I never feel incompetent. And I can see real improvement as I practice Pamela’s lessons.
