​RELEASE TO RECEIVE · CRETE, GREECE May 14–20, 2027 · seven nights at the Royal Blue Resort & Spa (5★)​

Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is let go.

Join me on the ancient island of Crete for seven days of vinyasa and yin yoga, where sun-drenched mornings on an ocean-view terrace meet slow afternoons by the sea. We’ll balance gentle adventure — Minoan ruins, a catamaran cruise, Cretan cooking, hidden gorges — with deep rest at the five-star Royal Blue Resort. As you soften, breathe deeper, and release what no longer serves you, you’ll create space to receive what has been yours all along.

THE PRACTICE

Dynamic vinyasa each morning on a terrace overlooking the Mediterranean, softening into yin as the day settles. This week is designed to take you deeper — into stillness, into awareness, into a more receptive way of moving through your life. All levels are warmly welcome, in a small and intimate group.

A WEEK IN CRETE

Each day weaves practice together with a taste of the island:

• A hands-on Cretan cooking class, preparing traditional mezze then sharing the meal together

• The 3,500-year-old Palace of Knossos, heart of the ancient Minoan world, with free time to explore Heraklion

• Your choice of a scenic hike through Milie Gorge or a morning in the Venetian old town of Rethymno

• A private catamaran cruise from Bali — swimming, coastline, snacks and drinks onboard

• An olive oil and wine tasting, celebrating the island’s culinary heritage, before our farewell dinner

WHERE YOU’LL STAY

The Royal Blue is your luxurious home away from home — oceanfront, peaceful, and spread gently across the hillside, with the feel of an elegant Cretan seaside village. Freshly renovated rooms blend traditional Cretan touches with modern comfort, and morning wellness sessions unfold on that beautiful sea-view terrace.

INCLUDED:

7 nights at the Royal Blue Resort, daily yoga with me, 6 breakfasts / 2 lunches / 6 dinners, all the wellness activities and excursions above, round-trip group airport transfer, transport throughout in air-conditioned vehicles, English-speaking guides, entrance fees, tolls and VAT.

Not included: international airfare, airport fees and taxes, meals not listed, entrance fees for optional extra activities, and local tourist tax.

YOUR EARLY-BIRD SPOT

As a thank-you to the people who raised their hands first, I’m offering the first 5 guests to book an early-bird rate of $150 off per person, secured with a $500 deposit.

• Single occupancy: $3,699 early-bird (regular $3,849)

• Double occupancy: $3,099 per person early-bird (regular $3,249)

Only the first 5 deposits receive this rate. Rooms are assigned first come, first served, and single rooms are limited — so if you’d like your own, it’s worth booking early. Double rooms are booked with a guest you bring; if you’d love to come and want to be paired with someone, just let me know and I’ll help.

HOW TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT

This retreat is a collaboration with Fit4Travel, who take care of all the logistics — resort booking, registration, transfers, and payments — so you're in wonderful, well-organized hands. I hold the practice and the experience; they handle everything else.

To claim your early-bird spot: book through this link and enter the code SAVE150 at checkout for $150 off. Your $500 deposit secures your place, with the balance due by February 1st.

The code is valid for the first 5 bookings only — after that, the regular rate applies.

Any questions at all, just hit reply. I would so love to share this week in Crete with you.

With love,

Dagmar
