Yoga In The Dunes

11.02.2016

<p class="p1">Two yoga enthusiasts, a mean 4x4 and 2 kilometres of pure white, crisp sand dunes… </p> <p class="p1">Tucked away just behind the pretty bay town of Lancelin, about an hour and a half drive north of Perth, the Lancelin sand dunes are the largest in Western Australia consisting of nothing but pure white, fine sand. They are approx. two kilometres long, three storeys high and because of the lack of vegetation (none, zilch, zero), they provide the perfect spot for dirt bikes, four wheel driving, sand-boarding... and Yoga.</p> <p class="p1">Yep, you read that right. Yoga.</p>
