Highlights
The retreat has been designed to keep you moving and invigorated but without including endless routines of tedious exercise. You will start your day with a yoga session to wake up your body in a gentle way and after a healthy breakfast head out for a 3 - 4 hour hike taking in the breathtaking scenery. After lunch you are free for you to enjoy - have a nap, read a book by the pool, or just simply do nothing. If you want to be more active we can arrange for a personal trainer to give you one to one fitness sessions at an extra cost of €40 per hour.Yoga styles taught include hatha, restorative and vinyasa flow. The teachers will provide modifications for your individual level. The classes are NOT just for experienced yogis.
All the activities are suitable for any age or fitness level as the programme can be modified for those who need it. This is not a bootcamp, so if you want to opt out of any of the activities and relax around the pool or take a dip in the sea the choice is yours. Scenic trails in the mountains or along beaches that will not only push your boundaries but will also satisfy your soul. The retreats cover trails in less-frequented but truly spectacular locations within close proximity of Athens.
