YogaSoul Retreats · Greece 2026 · A Look Back
In late May 2026, fifteen guests gave themselves a week on a private estate on the Aegean: morning yoga with the sea in view, a chef from Athens, and a small group that felt like family by Thursday. The retreat sold out, and the week delivered everything we hoped it would. We’re grateful to everyone who came, and we’re going back: the same island and estate in 2027, plus a brand-new hiking and meditation retreat in Meteora.

The Experience
Koufonisia is a fully walkable, crowd-free gem tucked in the heart of the Cyclades, where the water is so blue it barely looks real, the beaches are golden and empty, and the village is small enough to walk in ten minutes. Most people have never heard of it. Those who have been never forget it.
This is where Rachel and Eric brought a small group of students for a week of yoga, rest, good food, and genuine connection. The practices were intentional. The days were unrushed. The island did the rest. And in 2027, they’re doing it again.
All-levels vinyasa flow, breath-led movement, and short meditation each morning to awaken your body and set a purposeful tone for the day.
Wind down each evening with yin yoga, yoga nidra, guided meditation, or restorative practice, restoring your nervous system and deepening inner stillness.
Cliff jumping, beach swimming, hiking, sea kayaking, scooter rides, village wandering — Koufonisia’s turquoise waters and golden sand are yours to discover.
Two nourishing family-style meals daily prepared by a private chef from Athens, locally sourced vegetarian, vegan, and fresh seafood options.
Structured space for journaling, quiet reflection, and mindfulness — practical tools you’ll carry home to reset and find balance in everyday life.
An intimate retreat for a small group of like-minded souls. The connections built on these islands tend to last a lifetime.
A Retreat For You
This retreat was built for people who have been carrying too much for too long, who know they need a real pause but keep finding reasons to wait. If you recognize yourself in any of the below, the 2027 retreat was made for you.
Daily Flow
Each day unfolds naturally, structured enough to nourish, free enough to restore.
Retreat Moments
The Experience
Everything our guests needed for a week of deep rest and renewal, taken care of. The 2027 retreat follows the same all-inclusive approach.
Our Intention
You come home different. Quieter in the best way, with a handful of people who feel like they’ve known you for years, a practice that finally has room to breathe, and a week inside you that you’ll keep returning to for a long time. That’s what we’re building here.
~ With Love, Rachel

Your Guides
The husband-and-wife team who hosted every step of the week, at the table, on the beach, and on every island adventure.
Rachel has been leading these retreats for years, with Eric alongside on the logistics, and the thing students consistently say is that they feel genuinely cared for, not just instructed. Rachel holds the yoga with depth and warmth. Eric keeps the details running quietly in the background. Together they create an environment where it’s safe to slow down, go inward, and actually rest.
They’ve taken groups to Greece before. They know the ferries, the best beaches, the tavernas worth finding, and exactly when to leave for the afternoon session so everyone catches the golden hour light. You’re not joining a tour, you’re joining their table.
Rachel has practiced for more than 28 years, trained 300+ teachers, and led international retreats across Greece, Central America, and beyond.
Every guest who said yes to this week told us the same thing: they wish they hadn’t waited.
If you were almost on that ferry, the 2027 retreats are open now. Don’t make it another year of putting everything else first.
Our guests flew home with a handful of people who feel like they’ve always known them, and a quietness they hadn’t felt in longer than they could remember. They came home as people who finally treated themselves as worth the trip, and who know, now, exactly what that feels like.
We’re Going Back · Greece 2027
Same island, same estate, May 29–June 5, 2027.
Plus a brand-new hiking & meditation retreat in Meteora, May 18–24.
The two retreats run five days apart, by design. Hike beneath the thousand-year monasteries of Meteora, wander Athens or the islands in between, then land on Koufonisia ready to truly rest. Some guests are doing both.
