Community
At Casa de Alegria we believe in the importance of community. Likeminded people sharing together, for the highest good of all.
It all started with a meditation
During the pandemic, Caroline found a moment of clarity during meditation, which was an inspiring vision of a different way of life, a sanctuary of joy, peace, safety, and personal growth. Mark wholeheartedly embraced this vision and together we began our journey from UK to Spain.
Casa de Alegria is a heartfelt tribute to our shared vision. Named "House of Joy," it is Caroline’s Self-Mastery passion melded with Mark's dedication to creating a transformative oasis. Their journey has culminating in a holistic haven, placing individual well-being at the forefront of everything we do, and helping people from all over the world to de-stress.
We welcome you to join us, experience our offering and share our community life.
Much love
Caroline & Mark

Louie
Louie is affectionately known as Chief Doggie Comfort Officer and is an integral part of Casa de Alegria.
He loves pawing over plans and signing off on projects. Louie oversees all works, loves getting involved on the Yoga mat and enjoying cuddles with guests. He is equally happy to stay indoors and nap if you aren’t that keen on dogs, he’s chilled either way.
Caroline
After 29 years working in various corporate companies in London as Executive Assistant, Office Manager and HR Officer, Caroline knew it was time for a change. She first discovered Yoga in a London gym in 2004 as a physical practice of exercise. This evolved over time and has been responsible for subtle shifts of awareness, taking her from a hectic, burnt-out, London lifestyle to living at a relaxed, peaceful pace in Spain.
Caroline believes that Holistic Self-Mastery is a tool for deepening self-awareness and connection to Source Energy, in her work, Caroline guides and encourages this growth and the understanding that it is achievable for all.
She offers a reflective and thought-provoking approach to Self-Mastery, encouraging you to listen to your body and mind, being mindful of how you are feeling and letting go of anything that no longer serves you.
As Vanda Scaravelli eloquently said “Teaching is not an imposition of the teachers will over that of the pupil, not at all. Teaching starts with freedom and ends with freedom”.
