Schedule
Day 1: Arrival + Opening Circle + Introduction to Chakras
Welcome to Croatia! You’ll meet at Hvar’s main square at 16:00 and head to your paradise island on a private speedboat. After settling into your rooms and exploring your surroundings, you’ll gather for an opening circle and an introduction to the chakras. This is followed by a gentle earthing yoga practice. Your day concludes with a homemade dinner served on the villa’s porch, surrounded by lush greenery.
Day 2: Root Chakra Yoga + Healing Mud + Self-foot Massage
The day starts with a yoga session focused on the root chakra to build a strong foundation and stability. Today, you’ll visit Soline Beach, known for its ancient Roman spa. At Soline Beach you can find Roman ruins but what you care about is the healing mud which will make your skin feel soft and smooth.
Upon arrival at the villa, join Fige Yoga for a fun and lovely self-foot massage class. Dinner will be a delicious creation by the chef, Ivana.
Day 3: Sacral Chakra Yoga + Creative Workshop + Navel Chakra Yoga

The afternoon is reserved for leisure activities, such as massages, relaxing with a book in your hammock, or simply enjoying a long swim in the beautiful Adriatic Sea – the choice is yours. Later, join a creative workshop—either painting or writing. As the sun sets, you’ll practice a gentle yoga session focused on the navel chakra to energize the body. The day ends with a bonfire under the stars, where you can share experiences and stories.

Retreat location
Pakleni Island is a gorgeous chain of wooded isles that stretches out immediately in front of the town of Hvar. Although the name means ‘Hell’s Islands’, it’s thought to derive from ‘paklina’, a pine resin that was once harvested here to waterproof boats. The more descriptive name will be ‘Green and Blue Paradise’ of a Dalmatian coast, because of plenty of deep blue caves and tiny white sandy beaches.
