Yoga, music & deep rest
There is an interesting period that comes right after New Year when we feel a certain end coming yet not yet a new beginning happening.
This is when our body and nervous system need rest and rejuvenation.
We are often so eager to right away push ourselves to new resolutions without actually taking the time to integrate what happened the year before, to soak it in, rest, so we can- from a grounded place, actually feel into what it is that we want to do and create next.
So... this retreat is all about rest, yoga, singing, sauna, hot tubs, some dancing, jamming. All the things that nourish the soul. Think belly laughs, play, sleep & connection.
WELCOME TO THE CREATIVE CHILLZONE
The intention is to soothe ourselves, to bring us to our natural state of being, the flow. The beautiful nature that surrounds us will support us in this.
What can you expect?
✨ Vinyasa Yoga – Suitable for all levels. Each practice is unique and adapted to the energy of the group. Sessions include asanas (poses), pranayama (breathing exercises), meditation, mantra chanting, and deep, deep rest.
✨ Yin Yoga – A slower, meditative style of yoga where we stay in poses for several minutes to revitalize the joints, relax the muscles, and encourage energy flow throughout the body.
✨Morning meditation
Every morning dropping in silence. Starting the day with awareness & presence
✨ Freedom & voice – Vocal Workshop
This workshop is about connecting to your deep, authentic voice through creative exercises in pairs and groups.
We sing heart-opening songs together, dance with our inner boundaries and blocks, explore vulnerability, and connect with the group.
✨ Singing Ethno & World Music Songs
Learning traditional songs from the Balkans and around the world, in both unison and harmony.
These songs awaken ancestral memory and foster love for cultural diversity — a celebration of human creativity through the universal language of music.
✨ Cacao Singing + Dance
With deep reverence, we drink ceremonial cacao, sing to it, meditate... and then we dance.
Cacao has many beneficial effects, including grounding, heart-opening, and enhancing our connection to ourselves and others.
The dance is free-form movement — unstructured and intuitive, allowing the body to express itself.
✨ Sauna & hot tubs
✨ Nature time – lovely forest trails surround the estate
✨ 2 vegetarian meals per day – brunch & dinner. Coffee, tea & snacks available all day. You’ll never go hungry here
Spontaneous jam sessions, fireside gatherings...
.
Daily movement & flow

Alone & together
We nourish the parts of ourselves that need solitude, rest & meditation as well as parts that need connection, community and co-creation. You listen to what you need in a safe welcoming environment.
-
Nature support
At the retreat we are surrounded by nature. Just trees, hills, villages far away. Elements supporting us. You are welcome to go for a walk anytime you need to decompress.

Living in rituals
From morning meditations, yoga practise, singing workshops or dance facilitation all the way to eating, cleaning the space, having coffee with a roomie, everything becomes a ritual. We slow it down, bring presence and intention
