Evia, Greece Retreat

Do you ever feel like life’s on fast-forward? Work, social life, rinse, repeat – it’s easy to forget to pause and actually breathe. If you’re nodding right now, thinking, “That’s me,” then keep reading.

We’ve all been there – stuck in the grind, dreaming of a break that’s more than just a weekend away. What if you could hit pause on the chaos and dive deep into a journey of self-discovery, relaxation, and real adventure?

Picture this: crystal-clear waters, breathtaking sunsets, and the chance to truly connect with yourself through yoga, in a place where every corner tells a story…

Our retreat in Greece isn’t just an escape; it’s your chance to reset and find that inner peace we all crave.

So, what’s waiting for you? Apart from transforming your yoga practice, you’ll explore stunning landscapes, enjoy heartwarming conversations with like-minded souls, and discover a renewed sense of purpose. It’s about coming back feeling not just recharged, but reborn.

Now, for the details: this isn’t a massive tour group experience. We’ve got just 3 spots left for our 26-30th April retreat, keeping it cosy and personal. So keep reading for the details and when you're ready to book just email hello@sofiapanas.com to get the last places.
