'DIVE WITHIN YOGA RETREAT'
28.03.23 - 01.05.23
With Vasilis Kaloumenos & Virginia Papapostolou
A unique and intimate 3-day retreat in the magical region of Pelion. Hosted by: Vasillis Kaloumen & Virginia Papostolou.
We are happy to invite you on a magical journey with the destination of contact with yourself and the group. The goal of this retreat is to take a step back from everyday life, to allow serenity and to indulge in organic and human processes. The body is recognized as a perfect tool for contact with the inner space but also as a means of connection with its environment and others. In these three days we will give time to moving inward with the help of yoga, conscious movement, deep relaxation and imagination. Starting from the connection with our core we will try to open the outward movement through dance, massage, exploration, creation and work with the group.
Who is this retreat for…?
The retreat is aimed at yoga practitioners who are in the mood for practice as well as exploration on and off the mat.
It is recommended that participants engage in yoga for some time so that there is room for exploration of lived experience, sensations and emotions.

THE PLACE
The Pelion Homes Retreat Centre, the unique place that will host us for this retreat, is located in Agios Georgios Nileias. A beautiful and green traditional mountain village on the lush slopes of Western Pelion, 22 km from Volos, between the Pagasitikos Gulf & Aegean Sea.
Both the luxury villas and the retreat centre, create a safe space for external and internal observation, peace, connection with one-self and the magical nature around us.
