Testimonials

  • The retreat is an 11 out of 10! The gorgeous Kat leads you through a dynamic, physical practise each morning whilst you feel the Indonesian heat on your skin and gaze out at the beautiful horizon, leaving you fully invigorated before a delectable wholesome brunch!! The villa is stunning with lots of greenery and a luxurious infinity pool! There are day excursions and a super chilled vibe day in day out. I made some life long friends and fell in love with yoga truly and deeply on this retreat. Wish whole heartedly that I was going back in 2018!

    Jessica

  • Such a blissful experience. Katarina has such a strong and encouraging presence as a teacher and this spills over into the energy of the rest of the retreat. The space felt very secure and nurturing , complimented beautifully by the incredible food, which kept us all full of energy for all the exploring sunbathing that got done! Everyone was so helpful, nothing ever felt like too much too ask and everything felt so effortless. It was just an all round wonderful time!

    Lucy

  • The retreat is not an only a time you offer yourself to improve your yoga practice. It is a time of self learning, of mindfulness and love. We share a lot during a retreat and the energy we create is not only rejuvenating, it is also healing. During the retreat, you just enjoy life, take time for yourself and spread love. What an experience! Thanks to the magnificent team.

    Pauline

  • The yoga retreat on Paros has been one of my all time favourite holidays. The quality of both the yoga and the food was excellent! I have improved my yoga practice, my flexibility, and increased my general wellbeing after the retreat. The location is stunning with gorgeous rooms, infinity pool, and not to mention the beautiful view. They put so much effort and love into every single yoga session and every single meal. You can tell they are truly passionate about what they do. Everything was very well organised and ran so smoothly; just as I was beginning to feel peckish after brunch, a freshly made juice and healthy snack appeared from the kitchen. The atmosphere was relaxed, positive and friendly - I feel like I’ve made 14 new friends.

    Rachel H

  • The retreat in Paros was the first yoga retreat I had ever been on, and I am now hooked. The energy and passion of the team was contagious. I felt like I learnt from both of them. My yoga improved my fear decreased, I was rested, well fed and happy. And to top it off I made many new friends. The venue in Paros was beautiful, well designed, and luxurious. I would live there if I could! Definitely a retreat to remember. Highly recommended!
