Food

As we all have different dietary habits, allergies and food intolerances, feel free to use the school kitchen to prepare vegetarian meals and snacks for breakfast, lunch and dinner to your choice and taste. Normally, our students form kitchen teams and prepare food from all over the world together and have fun in the kitchen. This way you do not need to cook every day, and each kitchen team cooks normally just twice a week. But feel free to prepare something just for yourself if you want more privacy. Working together, hand in hand according to the karma yoga principals brings the group closer together and gives a feeling of unity during the training. We provide many groceries, plenty of fruits and vegetables, to which you have access all day long. We never had hungry or unhappy students and actually, there is no need for you to buy anything or spend any money on extras as you have always access to the school kitchen. We are of course not able to fulfill your personal wishes, but there is a supermarket close to the school, where you can buy your favorite personal snacks if really needed. According to the yogic diet the following products are not allowed at the school: Meat, fish, seafood, egg, garlic, onion, coffee, alcohol, and tobacco.

Tejina The small resort Tejina lies on the rocky coast in the northeast of Tenerife. It is surrounded by the foothills of the Anaga Mountains. The village and the surroundings are very rural and idyllic. The climate is extremely pleasant as temperatures do not sink below 17 degrees Celsius, even in winter. A harvest festival is an important event and the people of Tejina have a rather unusual way to celebrate it. The festival is called ''The Hearts of Tejina'' and is held in August. Hearts are decorated with flowers, fruit, and cakes, and each heart is around 12 meters tall and weighs about 1,000 kilograms. When the three main neighborhoods in the town bring out the hearts that they have been working on for a month, an entertaining ritual begins, in which each neighborhood mocks the others' hearts. The festivity dates back over a hundred years.
