'Sofia's retreat was just what I needed to unwind from daily life. The location was fabulous, calming and serene. And Sofia's gentle flows and luscious yoga nidra restored my tired body and left my mind well rested and renewed...'
'This yoga retreat was the perfect escape from my busy life I didn’t know I needed. I’ve never laughed so much in the space of a few days. Amazing yoga classes, breathtaking venue and the best company! Coming back from the retreat has urged me to prioritise daily movement and make time for the little things in life that bring me joy!'
'Incredible retreat, thank you for having me Sofia!'
'The venue was beyond expectations, the classes have been perfect and I came back feeling renewed and even better in practicing Yoga which I love. Looking forward to join another retreat with Sofia Panas as I know it will recharge me and I will meet incredible people + have a fun time.'
'I just had the best time. The food was delicious, the views were stunning, the yoga was just what I needed and the other guests were so so lovely. I feel reenergised and inspired again to practice. Thank you Sofia'
