For the past 25 years, we have taken our family holidays in Poros, Greece. From the very first visit, we fell in love with this beautiful island and the people who live there. In 2016 a wonderful friend from Poros suggested I teach yoga on holiday and our first retreat ran the following year. Since then our guests return year after year, making treasured memories, enjoying yoga, Pilates and everything this magical island has to offer.

Let us introduce you to Poros Island and our friends.
Each morning we will take you on a blissful yoga journey, melting into your mat with a seamless hour of breathing, movement, and relaxation. In the afternoon enjoy Pilates and the benefits from this precise system of movement to increase strength, improve posture and flexibility, you will be amazed at how quickly you see improvements.

Between classes and in the evening enjoy Poros, relax, laugh, explore, eat, drink, breathe and sleep. Allow this enchanting island and warm climate to embrace you. Rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit in beautiful surroundings and in the company of other like-minded people.

Our retreats will offer you quality 'me time' and self care, a whole week to relax and rejuvenate mind, body and spirit.

The accommodation: Apartment with kitchenette, air conditioning and outdoor space, situated only a few meters from the beach. Just downstairs is our outdoor exercise area and Petros taverna with traditional home cooked Greek food and a friendly atmosphere. There are spectacular and mesmerising views of sunsets, and stunning reflections on the sea at night. The sweet sea salt smell with hints of jasmine, Greek food, and the sounds of the sea, cicadas and Greek music are perfect for our mini escape.
​
Yoga and Pilates: The lessons are perfect for mixed abilities, inclusive and welcoming for beginners with challenging twists for those more advanced.

Free time: There are many things to do; visit Poros town or one of the nearby Islands. Enjoy a guided hike or hire a bike and explore this magical island. Some of the highlights over past years have been; Poros boat trips with Tases, circumnavigation Poros Island, stopping for swimming at excluded bays and enjoying the most delicious food cooked onboard. Exploring the main land Greece with excursions to Devils Bridge where we climb down a waterfall and swim in natural pools, visit 'In the land of the wolf' for a unique and spiritual experience with horses.  Or you can swim in the sea, relax, read a good book and top up your tan!

Reviews:
"Just returned from the Yoga & Pilates retreat in Poros and had an absolute brilliant time.  Returned home feeling rejuvenated, relaxed & ready to face the world.  

The classes are catered for everyone’s needs so whether you’re an absolute beginner or highly experienced you will benefit from all the classes.  Pauline was encouraging, thoughtful & considerate of everyone’s needs. 
 
The excursions from the retreat were personal, fun & a great way to see the beautiful island.  The other people attending were friendly and we bonded exceptionally well which made the retreat relaxed & fun.  

Accommodation is in the most perfect location, right on the beach & you are truly blessed having the classes on the patio of such an idyllic place. Donna September 2023"

"Loved my retreat time on the healing island of Poros. It was my second retreat and, honestly, it just keeps getting better. Such beautiful people, great laughs and wonderful memories. Thank you Pauline and Keith and the rest of the group, what a wonderful bunch of people! Namaste. Zdenka September 2023"

"Pauline and Keith are not just amazing human beings but the loveliest retreat hosts as well; very welcoming, knowledgeable, kind, considerate and fun. Nothing was too much trouble. 

As a budding yoga teacher, I really enjoyed the retreat, structure of practice, free time, activities to choose from and exercise. It worked perfectly.

Although I’ve been strictly dedicated to yoga for years, Pauline has me loving Pilates too now. I love her energy, which she adjusted for the different disciplines and also for different class themes, you can tell how much she loves teaching and does so with a joy. Her guidance on and off the mat has been truly invaluable and inspiring to me.

I couldn’t recommend this retreat more, have already done so to all my friends and looking to book soon to come back myself.  Zdenka" May 2023

"I have just attended a retreat on the beautiful island of Poros and would like to say how much both me AND my husband enjoyed both the Pilates and Yoga classes. My husband has never really been much of a fan, but it seems he's now a convert! The knowledge, patience and good humour of Pauline Ward throughout the classes ensured we all remained focussed and fully engaged. Pauline also managed skilfully to balance the needs of various levels and provided enough choices and options that everyone was challenged and encouraged. There's another retreat coming up this September which we're already committed to attending, it really is THAT good. Thank you so much!  Karen and Kevin " May 2023

"Thoroughly enjoyed the Poros retreat. Pauline and Keith went out of their way to make my week magical. Everything from organising transport to and from the airport, a wonderful boat trip, several restaurant trips and even pushing me up a hill on an e- bike. Nothing was too much effort and all topped off with relaxing yoga and energising Pilates. Couldn't recommend the retreat enough. Melanie" September 2022

"Thank you for a fantastic week on a beautiful island. An idyllic setting for our twice daily practice which we really enjoyed. Lovely apartments and wonderful hospitality at the Petros Taverna. Pauline and Keith were brilliant organisers and we were very grateful for the assistance with transport. A wonderful week meeting lovely new friends. Thank you once again from both of us. Deb and Bob" September 2022

The videos below were filmed during our first ever retreat back in 2017. Since then we have been blessed to return to Poros every year. Our groups are now smaller and we have moved our yoga and Pilates classes to a stunning terrace overlooking the sea. We have over the past 8 years, made so many happy memories, why don't you come along and make some memories of your own? Enjoy watching the videos and get in touch to book your space for our next adventure.
