Halkidiki · 5 days · From USD 590
This retreat is a harmonious fusion of yoga, Thai massage, and thermal spa therapy, set in the enchanting seaside village of Agia Paraskevi on the Kassandra Peninsula of Chalkidiki, Greece. The philosophy behind the retreat is simple yet profound: to create an environment where you can deeply relax, recharge, and reconnect with your best self. Each day blends purposeful movement, mindful stillness, and therapeutic touch, all while surrounded by the natural beauty of the Aegean coast.
Your mornings begin with dynamic Thai Yoga and Meditation classes, based on the respected YogaWorks method. These sessions focus on precise alignment, using props and hands-on adjustments to open the body and cultivate awareness. What sets this practice apart is the integration of Thai massage, delivered personally by your instructor Elli, which enhances relaxation, flexibility, and the release of muscular tension. Evenings wind down with gentle Yin yoga, a slow, meditative practice where poses are held for several minutes, complemented by soothing Thai massage to encourage a state of profound rest.
Beyond the mat, the retreat leverages the unique gifts of the location. The thermal springs of Agia Paraskevi are famed for their rare sanative properties, and you'll have daily access to a thermal pool that overlooks the shimmering Aegean Sea. This is a place for true self-care: you can spend hours at the beach, paddleboarding on the crystalline water, wandering the village's charming streets, or simply sitting on the terrace of the Artemis Plaza Hotel, absorbing the panoramic mountain and sea views. One evening includes a Thai massage workshop where you'll learn handy techniques to share with loved ones—a skill and a gift that lasts long after the retreat ends.
The retreat is hosted by Elli Kamilali, a highly trained professional with certifications in both yoga (RYT 500/E-RYT 200) and Thai massage from prestigious institutions including the Old Medicine Hospital in Chiang Mai and Lotus Palm in Montreal. Her unique background in music and composition influences her intuitive, flowing bodywork sequences, making every session feel like a harmonized symphony of healing. With a small group of no more than 12 participants, you'll receive personalized attention and a truly intimate experience.
