Daniel Harte DIRECTOR

Dan is a Londoner who spent many years in the late 80's living and running his own business in Tel Aviv Israel.  He is a fully trained master painter and decorator and talented chef. General household maintenance is also a skill he learned along the way. 

In Ibiza in the late '90s, Dan spent some time at a friend’s yoga retreat, which inspired him to run his own. Once Dan discovered Villa Roca available, he knew that it would be the ideal location, because of its outstanding beauty and closeness to Benirras beach. In 2000 he started Ibiza Yoga with his partner Sarah Robbie. 

Between 2007 - 2011 Dan also ran in London his own catering company named Top Deck Catering. He converted 2 Route Master buses with seating upstairs and kitchen down. On film and TV commercial sets he cooked for Jamie Oliver, The Hairy Bikers and at the house of parliament for Ann Widdecombe. He also catered at Festivals - Glastonbury, The Big Chill, Secret Garden, Kimberley to name but a few. Dan is a foodie and a talented Vegetarian Chef.  Sometimes he cooks for the retreat but we also hire in chefs to have a variety of cooking styles. Dan does not host the retreat but answers all the emails and puts the teacher schedule together each year.

Sarah Robbie

Sarah started to practice and study 'Hatha Yoga' in 1979 while modeling and living for 5 years in Tokyo Japan. In the early 90's she discovered Ashtanga yoga attending many yoga retreats worldwide and learning from some of the world's best teachers. She is somewhat of an advanced yoga practitioner albeit in the 1st series of Ashtanga. 

In the '80s Sarah spent many months living and modeling in both Madrid and Barcelona, Ibiza becoming a number one choice location to spend some fun time. Sarah was the first known celebrity to appear on the cover of The Sunday Supplement of the newspaper El Pais, a small claim to fame !!. (photo below). In the UK she worked with photographers such as David Bailey & Eamonn McCabe.

Model turned photographer In the late 90's early 2000's she photographed three of Godfrey Devereux Books, Elements of Yoga, Dynamic Yoga and 15 Minute Yoga. All available on www.amazon.com. Try this link for Dynamic Yoga http://www.amazon.ca/Dynamic-Yoga-Godfrey-Devereux/dp/0722536577

"It had long been a goal of both Dan and myself to offer a place where people can 'come together' to focus their mind and body into a healthy activity. Eat delicious vegetarian food, swim in the nearby sea and breathe the fresh pine tree air. Have fun and break from ordinary lifestyles to leave refreshed energized and perhaps see life in a new light ". This goal is accomplished with 'Ibiza Yoga' a company in its 20th year. Over the years in the region of 12,000 guests have enjoyed the experience. 

From 1990 to 2004 Sarah owned and ran along with 8 employees a company named Ordinary People Ltd, a London based employment agency. The agency still supplies character actors and models to the television and advertising industry. She helped supply between 1 to 100 artistes on over 5,500 individual shoots for work that included TV Commercials, Pop Promos, Corporate Videos, BBC work and lots of photographic advertising campaigns. Credits include TV Commercials for H&M, Shredded Wheat, Head & Shoulders, Scholl. Pop videos for The Kills, Madonna, Kooks, Sugarbabes, Robbie Williams, George Michael. Photography for Hewlett Packard, Shell, Volkswagen, RAC, Virgin Media, Coca Cola, and BT. 

I hope to see you in Ibiza for your yoga holiday. Every Sunday at 10 is I host the welcome meeting on the terrace of Villa Roca - where we get the opportunity to chat about your stay and what to expect. The many local walks and info on the island. Meet the yoga teacher and local massage therapist. So book early and treat your body to 18 hours of yoga - your body will thank you and so will I. Namaste.
