Fly. Breathe. Feel Alive.
Join me for six days of deep rest, joyful movement, and meaningful connection with nature on the magical Croatian island of Iž.
This retreat is an invitation to slow down, step away from the noise of everyday life, and reconnect with yourself through the lightness and freedom of Aerial Yoga.
Aerial Yoga offers a completely unique way of moving. Supported by the hammock, your body can release unnecessary tension while the spine and joints gently decompress, creating more space, ease, and fluidity throughout the body. Inversions improve circulation, relieve built-up stress, and leave you feeling refreshed, energized, and alive.
Perhaps its greatest gift, however, is that it reminds us how to play.
As we float, hang upside down, and explore movement from a new perspective, we awaken the childlike curiosity, creativity, and sense of freedom that so often gets lost in our busy lives.
Each morning begins with an energising Aerial Vinyasa practice, building strength, mobility, balance, and confidence. Evenings are dedicated to our restorative Flying Yin sessions, allowing the body to soften, the fascia to release, the nervous system to settle, and deep regeneration to unfold.
And in between…
There is time for what matters most: simply enjoying life.
Swim in the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea, wander through hidden coves and charming stone streets, relax beneath the pine trees, book a massage, enjoy a coffee by the sea, or simply savour the luxury of having nowhere to be.

Flying Yin
A deeply restorative hammock practice combining long-held postures, conscious breathing, and gentle rocking.
Together we release fascial tension, calm the nervous system, soften the body, and create space for profound rest and recovery.
These evening sessions also include guided meditations accompanied by the beautiful aromas of traditional Dalmatian medicinal herbs.
Evenings are reserved for watching spectacular sunsets together, sharing conversations, joining our themed gatherings—or simply retreating to your room if you feel like enjoying some quiet solitude.

This retreat is more than a holiday.
It’s a gentle invitation to rediscover joy, playfulness, stillness, and presence.
I didn’t create this experience as an intense transformational retreat designed to uncover life’s deepest layers.
Instead, it’s an opportunity to reconnect with your playful spirit, awaken your creativity, sharpen your ability to observe, slow down, and experience what life feels like when everything moves at a gentler pace.
Because once we awaken curiosity and playfulness, so much else begins to fall naturally into place.
