Yoga Retreat in Greece
with Saraswati Clere and SILVIA NAKKACH
September 16-22 2026
Come spend a week on a beautiful Greek island with time for yoga, meditation, voice work, good food, and plenty of time to enjoy the sea and the island.
We’ll stay in a lovely villa overlooking the deep blue Aegean Sea. It’s a peaceful place to practice and spend time together, with beautiful views and easy access to a nearby beach.
Each day will include morning and late afternoon yoga and meditation practices, with a mix of hatha yoga, restorative yoga, meditation, breathwork, and time for quiet reflection. Classes will be accessible to different levels and will give you space to move, rest, and reconnect with your practice.
We’ll also spend time exploring the voice with Silvia Nakkach, Grammy®-nominated musician and internationally recognized vocal artist. Her sessions will include sound, breath, toning, listening, vocal play, and spontaneous expression. You don’t need to be a singer or have any previous experience. The focus is simply on exploring the voice, having fun, and discovering how sound can support connection, presence, and well-being.
There will be plenty of time outside of class. Swim in the warm Mediterranean Sea, explore the island, read, take a nap, or simply sit and enjoy the view. You can participate in as much or as little as you like.
Meals will be an important part of the week, too, with fresh Greek food, local ingredients, long lunches and dinners, and time to enjoy good conversation around the table.
This is a chance to step away from your usual routine for a few days and enjoy a simpler pace. Practice, explore, eat well, swim, rest, and spend time with good people.
