We invite you to slow down. To return to yourself through movement, breath, and sound.
Your yoga guide will be Paula, owner of Spejs Yoga Studio in Poprad. She teaches in the Vinyasa style — guiding you to playfully connect breath with movement, helping you find strength within yourself, as well as softness and stillness. Over the weekend, Paula will also introduce you to the harmonium — a traditional Indian instrument she fell in love with. Together, we’ll experience a Kirtan, a musical meditation where we’ll chant simple mantras. You don’t need a perfect voice or any experience — just come with an open heart. To support relaxation, we’ll also share ceremonial cacao.

You’ll enjoy a gentle journey inward, riding the waves of healing sound frequencies. Sound encourages the natural flow of life energy within us. It helps deepen relaxation, release tension, and invites the body into full regeneration. A safe and supportive space will be held by Kristína.

Sound healing offers a mirror of your current state. It gives you exactly what you need in the moment. It might be soft comfort, gentle surrender, a pause in the now — or even a deep dive into your inner world. You might dissolve in pure contentment. You might allow yourself to feel long-suppressed sadness. Maybe a wave of unexplained joy will surprise you. Or you might simply drop into the deepest rest you’ve had in months.
We’ll also enjoy a meditative hike in the High Tatras. Don’t worry — no one’s dragging you up Lomnický Peak! We’ll take in the beauty of the Slovak nature at a gentle, comfortable pace.
Your belly will be lovingly nourished by Jakub. He’ll prepare healing, plant-based meals full of vegetables, fruits, fresh herbs, legumes, and gluten-free grains — inspired by simplicity, the abundance of nature, Chinese medicine, and the teachings of Anthony William.
The “Back to Yourself” Retreat is designed for anyone who longs to slow down for a moment, reconnect with themselves, and recharge with new energy.
No prior experience with yoga is needed – the classes will be guided with consideration for everyone, including complete beginners.
What matters to us is the inner experience, not perfect poses.
