OUR LUXURY YOGA resort

THE pRACTICE

Jaimee offers fun, energizing, and challenging vinyasa power flow classes for students of all levels in an atmosphere that cultivates a deep sense of community. On this retreat, morning classes will be an invigorating and empowering vinyasa flow, inviting students to move in ways that feel good for them. We will flow through poses that lengthen, strengthen and tone muscles, while having some fun along the way, always tapping into the strength that we carry both in our bodies and mind.

Evening classes will be a delicious blend of restorative/yin poses to sink deeper into the body and relax after a full day of island adventure. Additionally, there will be journaling and sharing thoughts around the topics of body positivity, inclusivity and self-love on select days. And last but not least, guests will have the opportunity to enjoy Jaimee’s signature Hip Hop Yoga experience accompanied by the most upbeat tunes!

* All practices are open to all levels from beginners to more advanced yogis.

COVID-19 | Yoga & Safety: The yoga takes place in an outdoor covered yoga shala which is sunlight & easily aired and yoga mats will be placed within a two metres distance. Each guest will be provided with a Manduka yoga mat which they will keep for the duration of the retreat and be responsible for its cleaning. Adjustments will be offered only orally by the teacher.

a GOURMET TASTE OF GREECE

We’ve created a bespoke food experience with the resort’s team to deliver the best of Greek nature at your plate in the most creative way. The hotel’s Award Winning breakfast is a pandemonium of island goodness served in the most sophisticated way.

A special vegetarian / vegan a la carte brunch has been created specifically for our retreats where you can enjoy a delicious variety of non-dairy and gluten free options. The highlight of this culinary journey is a tailor-made dinner experience. The chef is one of the most acclaimed Greek chefs and has created a special blend of Greek style sharing plates just for Fykiada Retreats. His approach to Greek cuisine is modern, yet based on traditional recipes made with the best quality ingredients.

COVID-19 | Food & Safety: All meals will be served individually to our guests by the restaurant’s personnel, including breakfast that is converted to an a la carte menu instead of buffet to avoid crowded queuing. Our seating area has plenty of space to keep the 1m distance in between guests.
