japan okinawa yoga retreat: w/ Katarina Rayburn & Reclaim Yourself


Kat is beyond excited to be heading to Japan with Reclaim Yourself to host this once in a life time retreat!


Our journey begins on Ishigaki Island, part of the remote Yaeyama archipelago in Okinawa Prefecture—Japan’s far south, where coral reefs fringe jungle-covered islands and time moves a little differently. This isn’t the Japan you see in guidebooks. It’s a wilder, more elemental version—salt-washed and sunlit, full of gentle wonder and unexpected depth.

We are based in Shiraho, a small coastal village known for its traditional houses and rare blue coral reef. Our retreat home is a beautifully restored 19th-century merchant house, just a minute’s walk from the beach. Nestled in a traditional fishing and farming village the house blends timeless wooden architecture with peaceful gardens, shaded decks, and simple, comfortable rooms.

Life here is slow and soothing. Start your mornings with a swim at sunrise, then settle into your daily yoga practice with Katarina. This is an immersive retreat led by one of the UK’s most experienced yoga teachers. Morning sessions will energise and prepare you for the day ahead, while evening practices will help you unwind and ease into a restful night’s sleep.

If you’re seeking a retreat where wild nature meets mindful practice—this retreat offers a rare chance to experience Japan in its most awe-inspiring forms.

“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.”
