Program
The program that you will follow during the retreat are yoga classes every morning and afternoon at several places in the nature. The courses are addressed to everyone and will be tailored to the capabilities of each participant.
The classes are inspired by different systems and schools (hatha yoga, Iyengar, Kundalini yoga, tibetan energy techniques, face yoga, restorative yoga etc) and that is why Stella Fysika calls it holistic yoga.
You will also do walking meditation, energy practices to activate the brain and all energy centers - chakras, pranayama - breathing exercises, practices to stimulate the immune and respiratory systems and relaxation and meditation. You will also do an introduction to face yoga and EFT (emotional freedom technique).
You will start the practice before breakfast with sun salutation and meditation, after breakfast the main yoga class, free time for swimming in the sea or rivers as well as lunch and relaxation, in the afternoon yoga class or walking meditation and connection with the nature and after free time for dinner and relaxation and/or entertainment.
As a yoga teacher, Stella Fysika always follows a program that connects her with the students so that she can coordinate with their energy and work together following the deeper and essential meaning of the word yoga, which means union.

Retreat location
Referred by mythology as the island of Aeolus, Samothrace (you’ll see it spelled "Samothraki" too) is adorned with Mount Saos, the highest mountain in the Aegean; legend has it that Poseidon sat on its top to watch the Troy war. The island with its steep peaks (the highest peak – 1.611 meters- is called "Fengari" = moon), the ancient legends, the pebbly beaches, the streams and rivers, the pristine nature, the thermal baths, the famous springs, and the archaeological finds are just some stuff you'll come across and in love with.
