BOOKING & MORE INFO

​This gorgeous retreat center is located 12 km from the Adriatic Sea, closest town is  Pedaso. It's a peaceful setting with amazing views, beautiful yoga spaces for both indoor and outdoor practices, a salt-water swimming pool, wood-heated sauna, plenty of space for contemplative solitude and cosy communal corners to gather with others. 

​The practices during the week will be a mix of slow and flow. All the ways of moving will be an invitation to deepen self-inquiry, to feel the nuance and the subtle undercurrents, to become more aware the ways we express or hide our vitality, strength and boundaries. The morning and evening sessions will be a combination of somatics, yin yoga, gentle flow, QiGong, breathwork, meditation, journaling and free-form movement.

Liina's approach to yoga is non-dogmatic, grounded in both extensive study of various movement and meditation modalities and in her own personal journey. Her classes aim to empower, encourage exploration and offer a safe space
​to connect more intimately with both - the visible and the invisible, the mundane and the mystical, body-mind and spirit.  

​If you haven't practiced with LIINA before, please check out her BIO and try some of her free online practices.
