Fluidity in Motion: A 7-Night Yoga & Somatic Movement Retreat, Greece

About this event

This is not a typical yoga retreat.

Fluidity in Motion is a structured, week-long immersion designed to restore natural ease in your body, breath, and movement.

Set in the quiet mountain village of Agios Georgios Nileias on Mount Pelion, this retreat combines daily progressive masterclasses with restorative evening sessions, all held in a shaded open-air practice space overlooking the sea.

WHAT MAKES THIS RETREAT DIFFERENT?

A Progressive 7-Day Programme

Each morning features a 2-hour themed masterclass. These sessions build across the week, alternating between:
• Therapeutic, slower approaches
• More dynamic sessions to enhance mobility and fluidity

The work integrates:
• Scaravelli-inspired yoga
• Somatic movement
• Laban Bartenieff Fundamentals
• Breathwork and pranayama
• Meditation and Yoga Nidra

Evenings include 90-minute restorative sessions focused on nervous system regulation, deep rest, and tension release.

You will experience six full days of structured practice, plus one free evening.
