MYTH, MOVEMENT & AMBROSIA
May 11 – 18th, 2025
GREEK ISLAND RETREAT
A week of purple sunrises, meditation & movement practices to renourish, restore and recreate the embodied story you are.
Far away from daily routines and habits we will connect with the ancient lands of Greek, nourish our bodies and speak to our senses through food, imagination and mystery.
This is a secret sanctuary to dive into myth, body wisdom & culinary celebration. An intimate, and very exclusive seaside retreat, for exploration, depth & physical sensation of your yoga practice. Slowing down, deep nourishment for the nervous system and cellular listening is exactly what your body and creativity is aching for.
•
Over the course of a week we will release tension through movement, breath & meditation and remember our creative center.
Rituals of touch, word spells and the elegant retreat space itself, provides you with the time to rest, relax, and reconnect to yourself.
From rest to revelation:
Open your senses. Seduce the muse.
Bathe in elegance & practice presence.This is your permission for recreation!
Come on a journey through the fabric of skin, ancient portals and crystall water
to tune into your body’s innate wisdom.
Yoga & Embodiment | breathwork | meditation
somatic touch | nourishment | temple portals | ocean | creativity |
the moon, the stars, white rocks
and the gods.
Accommodation
at KEA RETREAT
With the utmost respect to the natural ecology, accommodations are restored Kathikies (traditional Greek stone farmhouses) that date back hundreds of years, merging into the hill’s rocky habitat and overlooking an endless ocean view.
All the land is part of the property, which includes a vegetable garden, olive grove, vineyard and both beach side and hillside suites.
Earth to Plate
The retreat space includes a flourishing vegetable garden, large olive grove, and vineyard, all of which were planted using traditional Greek farming techniques providing an abundant, sustainable, and delicious experience for its guests. Paired with produce from local farmers and modern high end touches, all dishes embody a local, plentiful, and flavorful Greek quality.
Enjoy 3 abundant and delicious meals each day by Uri, our Michelin trained chef.
Throughout the past 7 years, Uriel completed extensive studies in farm-to-table culinary arts at the International Culinary Center in NYC and has spent time working at a number of the world’s most acclaimed restaurants – Noma, Ikoyi, Amass, Estela, and Blue Hill.

Luisa Doerstel
BODY POET & WORD MAGICAN
She’s infinitely curious about the body & the breath, plants, art, magic, language, failure, and how to find the sweetness of being lost in the world.
Holding a degree in Arts&Media and professionally being trained in Contemporary Dance, she now works as a multidisciplinary healer, body worker, Yoga & Movement Teacher. She believes in life as the practice of listening and responding; a dialogue both with the body and the world as innate language through which everything is connected in rhythmic symphony.
Passionately committed to sharing her practice, she wants people to vibrantly experience life and guide them into embodying themselves as a moving weaver, receiver and dreamer to orient and navigate between time & space.
Her teachings are anatomical but playful, intuitive and raw, drawing from natures wisdom of constant change and cosmic principles of alignment and connection.
Her classes weave together aspects of Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, Katonah Yoga, Somatics and Dance sprinkled with mythology, geometry and embodied astrology
Supported by KEA island, mythology, water nymphs, labyrinths and Greek gods in the Olymp.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Together we will explore how creative expression, movement and a change of environment are intertwined with the essence of self & recreation.
Enganging with myth and story, especially Ariadnes thread and the concept of sacred LABYRINTHS helps us to clear our vision, choose and create a life from imagination and weave it into our physical reality.
With each step, expect to unearth hidden insights, gain clarity, reconnect with your inner artist, and reignite the spark of inspiration within you. Through this practice we awaken the muse and remember the profound truth that we are part of something greater, a tread in time between the mondane and magical experiences, healing and inspiration in the beauty and wonder of existence.
