Summer Solstice Retreat Update and Scheduele

Hi everyone,

Thank you all for your interest to the Greek Summer Solstice Retreat and the wonderful artworks for the coinciding exhibition “Coming Home”.

As we are drawing closer to the event, and we would like to have a more clear picture of the participants interested, we would like to ask you to contact us directly your intention to participate. Please also note that you should contact us before booking flights and hotel accommodation.

We can be contacted on the Roots and Wings Facebook group or via email at: retreatingreece@songofself.com or on the contact page of www.songofself.com.

Here is our schedule that will function as our guide. However, it is open to adjustments depending on our needs:

For those of you who have contacted us with questions as well as those who are interested to know more, we are happy to summarize some of the key aspects of our gathering as well as mention some more practical information pertaining to it:

The classes will be group based but due to the nature of the multi teacher event, time may also allow for individual guidance and tuition. Also, depending on the participant’s level of exposure with the tools, concepts and artistic expression, classes will be structured in terms of time periods but will flow freely according to our needs. Note that the entire approach to our event is one built on the idea of creating a space for all of us to discuss and embody the many tools, concepts and creative expressions that we can all bring forth.

Some of the main tools that will be considered as the departing points for the classes and discussions are the sub personalities, masculine and feminine, stillness and activity, nature and city, the fields of the body, creative expression and much more…

The price of the event includes transportation to our group excursions to the mountain and the sea, all of the classes including yoga, Arasatma breaths, teaching and discussions of several of Almine’s tools, photography, painting/drawing, music, the Summer Solstice Ceremony and Belvaspata initiations for those who have prepared for them. Tea breaks will be provided and an “opening” of the exhibition and discussion will take place on the night the 16th of June (the day before the retreat).

In terms of costs, participants will be providing their own meals from the many nearby restaurants, cafes and shops with healthy and diverse choices and sensible prices. Also the hotel accommodations are at the participants’ expense with many choices within close proximity to the venue. The airport is very close by, only 20 min away from the venue; there is a very convenient and inexpensive bus service that departs directly from the airport as well as taxi services.

Once participants book, we will be sending many resources with specific information for accommodation, directions to and from the venue and any additional information needed.

We would love to see you there.
