The retreat is built around four yoga styles. Hatha sessions are slower and hold poses; Vinyasa links movement to breath; Yin and Restorative are the evening wind-downs, with props and long holds. Guided meditation and breathing exercises sit alongside the asana practice rather than as separate workshops.

Away from the mat, the programme uses the setting. There are wellness walks through the landscapes of Plitvice Lakes National Park, horse riding along forest trails, and time at the campsite pool. In the evening there are cinema nights under the open sky. The exact timetable is sent after booking is confirmed, so the schedule is not published in advance.

Hana Dervović leads all the sessions. The page names her as the retreat's guide but does not list her training, certifications or how long she has taught.

The accommodation is in mobile homes on the campsite, described as luxurious, with views over the natural surroundings. The campsite has its own restaurant and pool bar, open daily from 07:00 to 23:00, serving healthy local food.

What separates this from a generic yoga weekend is the location: the campsite at Smoljanac sits right by Plitvice Lakes National Park, so the walking is part of the programme rather than an add-on. The group is small — it only runs with at least six people — and the whole thing happens on one site, with rooms, restaurant, pool and trails within walking distance.
