In the back bending, or opening the front of the body workshops you shall find great happiness, ease and a transforming consciousness. Backbends are magical.

The morning sessions will be general yoga classes, a great start to your day, with varying focuses. In the afternoon, you shall focus on handbalancing,, backbends, yin, massage. With the handstand work, everyone shall find a place to be comfortable in some handstand variation and everyone shall find that they expand their abilities.
Beginners will be encouraged to find their first handstand, and all will experience the various ways to enter a handstand from kicking to the various pressing up ways (such as straddling, tucking up or pressing up), to finding movement within a handstand to learning the steps to one arm handstand.
You shall experience optimum handstand alignment, with partners and solo. You shall warm up the body, strengthen the abs and back muscles, open the shoulders and experience alignment in plank and in many handstand variations.

Aristea
My love for massage therapy started from a very young age. I completed my degree in Kinesiotherapy and got a fully therapist license in 2001. In 2007 I graduated from WAT PO in Thailand were I was introduced new techniques and types of treatments.
I always combine my knowledge when it comes to body work according to clients needs providing indulgent& personalised treatments.
My love for yoga started in 2013 when I established my small business in a yoga centre. Life changed for me after that and it was a starter point to explore a deeper connection between mind/body/spirit. Qualified as a Hatha &Vinyasa Flow yoga teacher in 2018 from Jessica Stewart Yoga school
Transferring this vibe in a yoga retreat gives me such happiness. Connect on a daily basis with the yogis and treat them depending on their yoga practice and where they want to improve or just give them an Holistic treatment near nature, where the body feels more grounded and the heart rate and breathing patterns slow down! Looking forward to create with Catie a week of magic”.
ABOUT KYTHERA:
Lying at the crossroads of shipping routes that lead to and from Eastern Mediterranean, Kythera has not been subjected to vigorous tourist development and as a result it has preserved its unique and picturesque character. It is an ideal destination for those who are naturists, want to feel spiritual peacefulness and to discover a pure hidden paradise.
Clean beaches, the blue colour of the vast sea at the meeting point of three seas, Ioanian, Aegean and Cretan, the caves , the springs, the beautiful walking routes through lush vegetation.
WHERE:
Porto Delfino will host the group. All rooms will have sea view. Fresh local ingredients for all our meals and option to practice indoors and outdoors according to weather/time and our preference. The hotel is at Kapsali village near the seaside. Infinity swimming pool available as well.
More details will be added as of how to get there etc!
