What an amazing experience ! I have just returned from my 1 week retreat at INEA Yoga. It is hard to describe how special this retreat was. Athina, Cedric and TJ are beautiful people and great teachers. They made us feel so welcome and it was like spending a week with a happy family. Everything was so well organised from the airport pick up to the amazing boat trip up the west coast of Corfu. The food was amazing thanks to Apollonia, Abi and Tamara. Further the accommodation was spotless with daily cleaning and smiles from Silvia ! The Yoga facilities are beautiful, there are outside areas and also inside Shalas where you can do yoga. We even did yoga and meditation at the beach. It can’t get much better than that. This might sound a bit cheesy and I am completely honest in saying that this experience and the beautiful people that I met on this retreat have had and will continue having a major impact in my life. My heart is filled with love, gratitude and joy!

For anyone who isn't sure whether to book a retreat with Inea Yoga - BOOK NOW!!! It was the most wonderful week I've ever spent: from the gorgeous homely accommodation to the incredible food and some of the most divine yoga and meditation sessions I've experienced (plus golden sunshine and daily sea swims). I felt so welcomed and the day trips catered for every level of energy and intrigue. I left immediately wanting to plan my next trip. Would highly recommend to all.

Incredible what a difference just 5 days at Inea yoga could do! The teaching is top notch, Athina and Cedric are completely committed to tailoring a program that specifically responds to the needs of the attendees. From the moment I arrived I felt held in a truly safe and nurturing space. The food is great, the beach is nearby, the rooms are spotless. I enjoyed all the workshops and am so glad to have made my Mala to remind me of a magical time! Thank you for this labour of love Athina and Cedric ✨

I would highly recommend this beautiful retreat centre to anyone looking to go on a retreat, training or a place for hosting. It’s a beautiful, happy, vibrant location in the wonderful island of Corfu. Athena & Cedric who run the retreat centre are just wonderful, warm human beings. You are made to feel welcome and cared for, food is great, accommodation comfy, 2 wonderful dogs to cuddle 🤗 and 2 minutes from a beautiful beach. I participated in a wonderful teacher training held here. If you want a retreat on corfu this is the place to come 💜

Can’t recommend enough!! Did a week long yoga retreat in October, it was my first one & it was exactly what I needed. Athina & Cedric are amazing .. I wasn’t feeling good the first, they not only called the doctor for me but also drove me there & moved things around so I could have my own room until I felt better!! Seriously just such a beautiful place to go & be. Not to mention the property & island are beautiful. Felt so at home the whole time & definitely learnt lots!

Cedric and Athena created the most magical retreat place possible. It is two minutes from the beach and two minutes from a traditional Greek taverna where you can taste all the best the Greek cuisine has to offer. I highly recommend retreating at INEA YOGA. It's magic.

Inea yoga is just incredible! I came last year having never done a retreat before, and fell in love with it so came back again this year. I’ve also been recommending it to all my friends and have brought one along! Athina and Cedric are gorgeous. They create such a warm, open atmosphere. They love what they do and it’s infectious. And there’s delicious Greek food and a good mix of yoga, optional activities and time on the beautiful beaches. I look forward to coming back again!

Athina, Cedric and their team have created a nurturing haven of calm at Inea Yoga. The location is idyllic - with beautiful gardens and just a few minutes walk from an unspoilt beach. The rooms are a good size with large balconies and spotlessly clean thanks to Sylvia. I joined the walking and yoga retreat which was a great mix, also including a boat trip and making a mala necklace. The week was an ideal way to deepen my practice and meet new friends. I hope to return.

This is such a beautiful space. Everything is made with so much love and it’s a really relaxing atmosphere. The Yoga teachers are extremely kind and you feel much welcomed in their „family“. The whole centre is tastefully designed, the rooms get cleaned daily and meals are freshly cooked every day. The chef did an amazing job in catering for special dietary requests as well. Communicating with Athina and Cedric, the owners of the Yoga School, was easy and they are always happy to help you. I enjoyed every single Yoga class and can highly recommend to stay here and participate in one of their retreats. The beach is just two minutes away, lots of restaurants as well and a bus to Corfu town departs twice a day. I would definitely come back here!

There aren't really enough words to express the joy and sweetness of being in this space. Cedric & Athina bring full heart to all experiences here, alongside a team who feel like family. Working with them to facilitate a retreat experience for students/ guests felt effortless from start to finish ~ and the usual stresses that one may feel in the logistical parts of curating such an event felt so deliciously supported by their presence and willingness to collaborate. Couldn't recommend a space, or a team more highly and I very much plan to be back again, and again, and again! :)

This yoga retreat is a hidden gem. The moment you arrive you are embraced with love and sincerity. Athina and Cedric are totally committed to their craft with a beautifully organised and balanced retreat allowing participants to reconnect with themselves and others in a safe and un-pressured environment. From creative yoga classes to amazing gong baths, workshops, massages and mala making - this retreat provides it all. I will definitely return next year.

Yoga Vacation in Corfu Island 2022

What to expect from a yoga retreat

It's hard to put into words the benefits of participating in a retreat. Far from temptations and distractions, a yoga retreat offers the opportunity to connect with your mind, body and spirit and share new experiences and insights with other yogis. Here are some of the many reasons why a retreat can bring about such miracles and growth in your personal, physical, and spiritual evolution.

Where culture meets people

Meet people from around the world

It's not immediately obvious, but yoga retreats are a place to connect. We have already found many things: good friends, new life partners, small adventures or simply nice people with whom you walk a small part of the path. We have yogis from all over the world, with similar values and ideas, but from very different cultures. This can be very exciting and fruitful.

Elevate your practice

Explore your body and never stop learning

In the seclusion of nature, your mind is liberated from the everyday distractions so that you can fully engage in your practice. This allows your practice to develop quickly. On a yoga retreat, you may feel the poses more strongly than ever before, as your mind and body are much better capable of connecting. When this occurs, your yoga can change completely thanks to a serendipitous kind of alchemy. Some compare yoga retreats as quantum shifts for your practice. At the least, you'll notice a vast improvement in your flexibility, well-being, and physical health.

Enjoy nature and silence

Retreats are great for digital detox

When was the last time you didn't use your smartphone for a week? Or for one day? Don't worry, we don't forbid you to use your phone, but we give you the impulse to try it out. Yoga retreats are the best opportunity to get back to yourself and what really matters. You have time to reconnect with yourself and your soul. You will have wonderful experiences and your perception of body and mind will certainly be strengthened.

Heal and Recharge

Retreats allow you to relax and rejuvenate

We make the experience again and again. Our guests come to our yoga school in Corfu and are first of all very tired. After one or two days, they receive a sudden rush of new, inspiring energy. The island has been known for centuries for its healing effect of the good air and beautiful nature on body and soul. Even princess Sisi came here at that time. What could be better than a place to relax, yoga classes, the sea and gorgeous people around you?

Create a new yoga routine

A chance to break bad habits

The best place to get rid of unwanted addictions and bad habits is definitely a yoga and meditation retreat.The structure of the retreat allows you to dedicate time and space to yourself and to indulge yourself. With the yoga classes, you can simultaneously build a new routine that supports you, which you can then continue at home. We know the beginning is the hardest, so take advantage of our community and teachers to help you get there and come home stronger.

Reunite with your soul

There’s free time to find yourself

Our retreats are designed to give you space to unfold. We give you food for thought in the yoga classes, the workshops and in the engaging and at times profound conversations. Sometimes that can be a lot. But you have time with us, all the time in the world you need. We are here to support you in living a full and abundant life. Or maybe just to chill out.

Questions about our yoga holidays & retreats

FAQ Yoga Retreats

Which yoga styles do you teach at the yoga school Corfu?

In our yoga center in Corfu we teach Vinyasa Flow (Anusara inspired), Tantric Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra. Additionally, we offer Workshops, Mantra Chanting and Sound Experiences. We are registered yoga teachers with Yoga Alliance (E-RYT 500).

What is Vinyasa Yoga?

Vinyasa Yoga is an active and flowing style, where yoga postures, also called Asanas are linked by dynamic movements to each other in a cleverly way – always synchronized with a steady full breath. What most people don't know, this is called Vinyasa Krama. Those cleverly or smart linked postures, the movment and the breath are utilised towards a goal. The goal can be different, depending on the teacher's intention. In general the aim of yoga is to create more space, expansion and freedom for the mind and body that leads to self-realization. Often it's also meant to burn the kleshas, that means (freely translated) to get rid of bad habits, unconscious patterns or restricting emotions, thoughts, concepts or beliefs that are not supporting the flow of your life energy.

What is Tantric Hatha Yoga?

Tantric Hatha in a nutshell (and we could fill many book pages with explaining the philosophical background) is the expansion of life force. This is achieved by the practice of Posture (Asana), Breath (Pranayama) and Meditation (dhyana). Let’s focus on what the actual practice looks like in this style: Tantric Hatha is a combination of first dynamically introduced postures which eventually become steady asanas held in stillness for about 5-8 long breaths. The focus is really strong on the slow and conscious breath and less on the perfect alignment. Thus the postures are in general more easy to follow. In this yoga style there are three main types of Asana practice: Moon, Sun and Fire. Every type has its specific aspects and methods to cultivate different qualities of experience in the body and mind.

What is Yin Yoga?

A very slow yoga practice with only seated and lying down postures that heals and regenerates the body and calms the nervous system. It's a passive practice where muscle tension is released and the focus is on relaxation. Most postures are held for a long time, between 3 and 8 minutes.

What is Yoga Nidra?

Yoga Nidra is a type of guided meditation also known as "yogic sleep" or "effortless relaxation." It is generally practiced while lying back, with a teacher leading the practice session. The practice directs our awareness inward, and we learn to shift between the states of being awake and asleep, where our body finds its natural state of equilibrium (homeostasis) - the breath becomes balanced and calm, subconscious and conscious facets of the mind reveal themselves, and we fall into an innate state of deep, blissful awareness.

What do I need to bring? Here is a pack list for yoga retreats.

Yoga mat, yoga clothes , swim gear, beach attire and protection, warm socks and jumper for early morning/evening. We have all yoga props like blocks, bolsters, belts, and etc. It’s not required but you may also bring a notebook and pen to reflect on your experience. Check out: Athina wrote a detailed article about What to bring to a Yoga Retreat?

Is there a sandy beach close to the retreat center?

Yes, there are multiple sandy beaches in the area. It’s only one minute to the closest beach called Lakkiess. Only a 20 minute walk away is the beautiful Issos Beach, with a big nature reserve just next to it.

Do I have to share my accommodation? Do you offer private or single rooms?

We offer both shared and private accommodation. Private accommodation guarantees you a private bedroom with a double bed. This can be either a studio-like room with a smoll kitchen and balcony, or an apartment-like accommodation where you have your personal private bedroom and share the big kitchen and balcony with max. one other person.
In our shared accommodation you have a shared twin bedroom with two single beds. You share this room with a person of the same sex and also share a bathroom with a maximum of two people from the same apartment.

Can I come to your yoga school earlier or stay longer?

Yes, you can book extra nights with breakfast included with us please write to us at: andrianacorfu (at) gmail (dot)com We actually recommend taking a bit more time for your journey, because often in yoga retreats many things can happen on different levels, to have time to integrate those changes is a very good idea. Let things first sink before jumping back into daily life. We have many drop-in classes you can join at days where there is no retreat.

Do you have Massages or Spa treatments?

We provide massages from our in-house massage therapist Jenny. She has over a decade of experience and offers a variety of treatments. You can directly request to have a daily massage when you book on the website and even save a little money. How does it sound?

Who is your audience? What kind of people join the retreats?

People who join us have a passion in common: yoga. We share similar life values and an attitude of an open mind and honesty. Therefore, it's really not about age, gender or the fitness level. We have people join us from different parts of the world and most participants are between 20-45 years of age, but we have some beautiful souls over 50 who join us regularly. y . Everyone who comes in peace is welcome at our yoga base in Corfu.

Can I go on my own to a yoga retreat?

Yes, absolutely! Many people choose to come on their own. It’s an opportunity to meet like minded people and make new friends. We got life-long friends through yoga trainings and retreats and even Athina and Cedric met on their first yoga teacher training in India. Isn't that good point?

What is included in the retreat package?

Daily yoga and meditation classes, breakfast & dinner, accommodation, and workshops (some have extra fees for materials).

How many guests are on each retreat?

Most Retreats we host have between 8-18 people. The maximum capacity of our house is 29 beds. But we also have some other guests that are not joining a retreat and just spending time on their own, diving deep into yoga or just enjoying holidays. An avarage Retreat has 12 people.

Will there be free wifi / internet and cell phone coverage at the retreat site?

Yes, free wifi is available on the property and in all rooms. There is mobile coverage as well, but the quality of reception may vary depending on your provider since we are in a smaller town. We have a 100mbit line (for the geeks under us).

What dietary options do you offer?

All of our meals offer vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and sometimes a pescatarian option. If you have specific dietary needs or allergies please contact us ahead of time. By default we accommodate the following: Vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, pescatarian. If you have specific dietary needs please contact us.

What other services do you offer?

Do you offer any excursions, tours or trips?

Yes, from short hiking trips to long trips as well as boat trips to different locations on the island including some time to swim and enjoy the beach. Boat trips have extra fees which we will note in the details section.

Do you have Yoga for beginners? I am not sure, if I am good enough?

Yes, in our yoga retreats and daily Drop-In classes we have mixed groups of beginners and intermediate students. We learn from each other. If it's not for beginners, it's explicitly said in the quick info section of the retreats detail page . It's helpful for you to have tried a couple of classes to have a rough idea about yoga. If you are an absolute beginner and haven't practiced before, please join our “beginners only" retreats.

What are your Covid policies at the retreat? Should I be vaccinated? Wear a mask?

We follow government regulations. No mandatory vaccine required. We care about everybody's health and ask participants to be responsible. We don't want to make it into a political topic. Everybody has to have a covid test (rapid or PCR) at arrival not older than 72 hours.
We follow government regulations and will update the policy accordingly. Covid regulations may change, but as of this time no mandatory vaccine is needed. Everybody is required to present a covid test (rapid or PCR) upon arrival no older than 72 hours. We care about everybody’s health and ask participants to be responsible without politicizing the issue.

What is the cancellation policy?

We understand that cancelling is the last thing you want. However, re-arranging things has never been easier. You can still have some time for yourself. If things end up changing at the last minute (under 7 days from the start date), we offer you an 18 month long voucher that you can utilise towards any of our other retreats or services. Additionally, for cancellations that you make longer than a month in advance, you can have a full refund or take the voucher option too. In case of refund, we will charge you the transaction fees, which are estimated at 3%. We hope you understand and that this way we help you invest in yourself. Let's keep working towards an easier future for you and for us.

How do I arrive? Where is the Yoga Retreat Center Corfu located?

Address of INEA • YOGA Retreat centre
Andriana Apartments
St. George South, Agyrades
49080 Corfu, Greece

You have two options to arrive: by plane or ferry.
There are two ferry ports, one in Lefkimmi in the South (closer to our Yoga Centre) and one in Corfu Town.

Arrival by airplane

The closest airport here is Corfu International Airport: CFU.

Arrival by bus

What should I do to prepare for my retreat?

Lets be clear: you dont need to do anything! This is not yet another task on your list. But, and just if, if you want to prepare for this little exciting journey, here are some ideas!
Becoming clear about your intention – or set an intention :) This will set the tone for your experience and allow you to make the most of it. Well, of course you can just follow your gut feeling and come without any overthinking about the whys :)
Another way to get into the mood is to slowly introduce a regular practice. Weather this is a 5 minute meditation before bed, a daily reminder of gratitude or an Asana practice. The good thing is, you have a limited time frame and an aim (to practice until the retreat starts), that helps to get into a healthy routine.
Yes, you need to think about what to pack. But except the nessesary things, maybe take a bit time to feel into what do you actually want to experience here in Corfu with us? Maybe there is a book you always wanted to finish, or you have some unsolved thoughts, unfinished ideas that jearn to been written down?
And for the practical stuff, review our packing list to make sure you have everything you need during your stay. What to pack for a retreat! You will also get a packlist reminder via email after you booked a retreat with us.

Can a friend/partner/spouse join me to stay there but not participate at the retreat?

Of course, in this case you would need to choose the single room option and advise us via email that you will have someone join you that will not participate in the retreat. You will get a double bed and charged an extra fee for your guest. If your guest wants to join any of the meals there will be an extra cost but is more than welcome to join.

What is the weather like?

All of the months, except April, allow for swimming because of the beautiful water temperature. We have two main seasons:
Our peak season is from July to September where we rarely have any rain and the temperature is between 28-32 degrees Celsius.
During our off season from November to June there is a higher chance of rain with an average temperature range of 20-16 degrees Celsius.

We wrote an article about every months weather conditions here: Which month is the best for a yoga retreat in greece

Yes, our teachers are all available for private yoga classes. Our teachers are certified with Yoga Alliance. Extra fees apply.

Which language will the instructions be in?

English, we also speak German and Greek as second languages (but not in the yoga group classes).

What is Yin Yoga?

Yin is a very slow yoga practice with only seated and lying down postures that heals and regenerates the body and calms the nervous system. It's a passive practice where muscle tension is released and the focus is on relaxation. Yin yoga is a compliment to other more active forms. It is a very slow-paced passive practice focused on releasing tension, stretching, and relaxation with the goal of increasing circulation in the joints and improving flexibility. The postures are mostly in seated or lying down positions (asanas) that are held for a longer period of time than other styles which heals and regenerates the body and calms the nervous system.

Do you have drop-in classes at INEA•YOGA school Corfu?

Yes, during the season we have daily drop in yoga classes here in Corfu. Please find the schedule (changing times during season) on the website or write us an email.

Do you provide yoga mats?

Yes, we provide basic yoga mats free of charge. If you like to have a high quality mat, you can either rent or purchase a Manduka yoga mat.

What should I expect on a typical day of a yoga holiday retreat?

We have a package prepared for you. But you do as much as you want. These are the offerings:

Morning meditation (30-60min)

Morning yoga practice (more intense/flow) Vinyasa or Hatha

Followed by a delicious brunch and free time or activities.

Is the retreat suitable for beginners in meditation?

The answer is a clear yes. Our meditations are all guided and everybody can join.

What is a sound bath?

A Sound Bath is a very unique experience, especially the first time. As a studied music teacher and pianist, Athina is devote to sound and music. With 7 crystal bowls tuned to the frequencies of the 7 chakras, Athina plays a sound concert of a very special kind, flooding the whole body with vibrations. By stroking and painting those bowls, they start to vibrate and create a smoothing sound in their frequencies tuned in 440 hz. Many testify of wonderful experiences during these sessions. It is said that the vibrations release energetic (emotional) blockages and have a healing and harmonizing effect on the body and mind. It is each time a marvelous experience, but come and witness it for yourself.

What is a tibetan singing bowl sound healing treatment?

Sound treatments are here to help you release tension, work through blockages and connect with yourself in a deeper level. During these sound treatments the practitioner utilises the healing aspects of ancient Tibetan techniques and brings them to your body through vibrating singing bowls in the form of waves. The waves, as created by Tibetan and Crystal singing bowls, are played with clear intensions and directly from the heart. Sound is such a powerful media, as tradition has shown and modern research has come to support, especially when practitioner and patient/client are working towards the same goal or releasing, connecting, clearing, having left concepts and words outside the treatment room and allowing the vibrations to flow.

Tipps to find the best Yoga Retreat for you

How to Find the Best Yoga Retreats in Greece 2023?

It's not easy to find the best yoga center in Greece. We want to help you with that - and of course find out if we might be the right place for your yoga journey.
What to look for in a yoga retreat? First, check out the website and get a first impression. Are there pictures of the accommodation that you like? Is the location what you want? Our yoga school is 100m from the beach and has hiking trails within short walking distance, which lead into the nature.
If you don't know the yoga instructor, you should see if there is an online class with the yoga teacher. Even better is a personal video call where you can ask your questions and get to know the yoga retreat organizer.
You like good food? Look for options like vegan, gluten-free or vegetarian and whether the food is cooked fresh. Of course the price has to be right. It should not cost more than 1800€ per week including accommodation, unless a well-known teacher is invited.
And last but not least, check beforehand how you will get to the retreat center. Is the flight connection good? Is there a shuttle?
Once you have all this figured out, listen to or read opinions and retreat testimonials from other participants. This usually helps to get an idea of who goes there and what their experience was like.

Why visit Greece for your Yoga vacation / holiday?

Greece is one of the most popular places for yoga and meditation retreats. Whether you want to take a yoga vacation, or intensively swap in a yoga training, the country offers you the best opportunities to enjoy the around. Greece has a long summer and similar but more pleasant temperatures than India, Costa Rica or Bali.
The people are very friendly and the welcoming culture in Greece is great and warm.
You can find many hotels with yoga offers, as well as yoga guesthouses, yoga studios or yoga retreat centers or you can just come to us at the yoga school on Corfu.

Top Yoga Studios and Yoga Retreat Centers in Greece

YThe best yoga studios in Greece and the best yoga retreat centers in the Ionian Islands all have one thing in common: they are embedded in the beautiful landscapes of Greece. The salty sea water that invites you to swim or the biodiverse nature that recharges your batteries. Once you have tasted the fresh, sun-ripened vegetables here, you will never want to go back. In our school we pay attention to healthy and untreated food. To find the best yoga places, it is recommended to look at the testimonials or reviews.

Gain Strength and Flexibility

Because in yoga, you're working on what you're missing for healthy balance - whether it's in your body, your mind, or your spirit.

On Corfu you can fly directly from Germany, Great Britain / UK, Holland, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria and many other countries. We also offer affordable 5 day yoga retreats. We are always open to accommodate you if money is the limiting factor. But other islands have great retreat centers as well.

So pay attention to the teachers - and if everything fits, there is nothing better than to treat yourself to a luxury vacation with yoga. We offer you a high standard, but especially the highest quality yoga instruction.

Spa & Wellness Retreats with Yoga included

Yoga hotels with pool, Ayurvedic massage and other spa offers are of course an incredibly great experience, especially for a yoga vacation for two with your partner.

You work with physical practice, asanas, meditation, contemplation, therapy, healthy food and wellness treatments to get into your balance.
