This retreat is for you if:
- You want to deepen your yoga knowledge and practice
- You would like time for introspection and to recharge
- You’re traveling solo, with friends, or as a couple
- You love home-cooked food with a hint of sophistication
- You enjoy the sunshine, the beach, and outdoor life
- You want to increase your wellbeing and optimize your health
You will be offered a daily morning and evening yoga practice in the purpose-built, shady, outdoor yoga shala. Morning practice will set you up for the day so you feel energized, enlivened, and ready for your brunch! After brunch, you can wander to the beach for an afternoon swim, take a nap in the shade, read a book, or explore the island.
There is a chance to use stand-up paddle boards or if you prefer the more creative approach, take a pottery class or make your pebble art. The evening yoga session will be at a slower pace, so you are truly relaxed before a delicious Greek dinner.
The Yoga
Stillness, moving and breathing.
Start your yoga days with sun salutations, intelligent sequencing, strength building, and inspirational themes – energizing, dynamic, and explorative. I love to offer a deeper exploration of asana along with the chance for discussion around the underpinning philosophy of yoga and how it spills off the mat into your daily lives. In the evening you can nourish the body gently with a calming and nourishing practice including pranayama, meditation, and relaxation.
Both morning and evening sessions take place on the outdoor yoga deck among the olive trees. There is magic in the moments when you realise you are simply present with the surrounding sounds of nature. Nothing to do and nowhere else to be - simply present.
