Dexamenes Seaside Hotel is a postwar winery that has been transformed into a barefoot luxury resort on one of the most unspoiled stretches of coastline in the western Peloponnese.
Program
There will be a series of Hatha yoga practices to help maximize the efficacy of pranayama that aims in strength, alinement, and activation through the upper body to discover the flow of prana Vayu. It is directly linked to the function of the heart and therefore to the anahata energy center. You will focus on chest opening exercises. The driving force is balance. If the heart chakra is closed, your core suffers. Your breath is shallow and your metabolism and energy decrease.

Instructors
Fotini Bitrou
Fotini teaches Hatha, Restorative, and Vinyasa yoga. She is also a gymnast graduate from Athens University and owner of the Kouros studio. Fotini was the founder of the classic athletics (track) team in Aegina, of which she was president for five years. She was also involved for 12 years with classic athletics (800 - 1,500 meters) and was a track champion in many appearances with the national team of Greece.
Retreat location
Rarely the history and economy of a place have been linked so closely to an agricultural product like the western Peloponnese region was linked to grapes and especially to Black Corinth grapes (currants). Situated on Kourouta beach near the town of Amaliada, the hotel is an ideal outpost for sun-seeking and exploring the regions offerings, which includes an abundance of wineries.
It’s a sleepy place and the surrounding landscape is a patchwork of watermelon fields, olive groves, and vineyards. It’s just over half an hour to one of Ancient Greece’s most important archaeological sites, the Unesco World Heritage-listed Ancient Olympia – the birthplace of the Olympic Games.
