Yoga, Healing & Rejuvenation with Bita Jenkins & Moses Brown

Yoga, Healing & Rejuvenation with Bita Jenkins & Moses Brown

Join with Bita and Moses as you let time slow down and help you rejuvenate in the heart of the Aegean. Allow the tranquility and charm of an unspoiled ecological retreat where you can swim, walk and contemplate as you practice and self reflect in the healing waters right at your doorstep.

Built in harmony with nature,  your eco-retreat home for the week offers the opportunity to take a deeper yoga dive with Bita and Moses while living in harmony with the land and sea, eating clean, and experiencing an encouraged “digital detox”.

The Cycladic Island of Paros is seated in the crystal blue water of the Aegean, and is well known for its beaches and whitewashed traditional villages.  Less touristy than its sister islands of Santorini and Mykonos, Paros is an idyllic island for our retreat.

Enjoy morning and afternoon yoga, swimming in the sea, visiting the village of Naoussa and immersing in Greek island life. A special excursion via boat is also being planned for the group!

We have only 12 available rooms for this week. Please reserve early.
