The Power of the Practice
20.09.-27.09.2025 - Kiveri, Greece
Move, breathe, experience yourself anew and enjoy!
Calm the mind. This is one of the central ideas of yoga.
And I believe that sometimes we all wish for some of this calm in our fast-paced, stimulus-flooded everyday lives. To take a 'break' from all the thoughts (Patanjali calls them the 'confusions of the mind'), obligations, 'to-dos' that we have all day, in fact all of life at all times.
This week we will take time for this together.
You will explore yourself, your body and your practice anew - detached from everyday life. And you'll enjoy the sun, beach and sea. Not bad prospects.
Give yourself this time and this special experience and find new strength.
And I'm sure: you didn't expect much of what happens here. Perhaps least of all how much you will surprise yourself and how much you have long since discovered.
The Location
Location
We stay in two small, family-run hotels in Kiveri.
Kiveri is a small former fishing village on the mainland without much tourism, about a 2-hour drive from Athens.
The transfer to the hotel is from Athens airport and is provided by us. There are 2-3 transfer times on both arrival and departure days.
Kiveri is located directly by the sea surrounded by small mountains and extensive Mediterranean landscape and offers a few beautiful bays and beaches.
In addition, the weather is almost always perfect, the people are friendly and there are a few nice restaurants and cafés where you can enjoy your time and have an authentic meal together in the evening.
