Her experience, personal and group training and her education at Thessaloniki Aristotelio University has given her the understanding that we not only all have different bodies but that we all turn to yoga for different reasons. Consequently, her lessons are frequently adapted to suit those taking part.

Retreat venue

'The house house' is located in a wonderful environment 28km southwest of Corfu Town in Halikouna near the village of Agios Mathaios (7km). The Korission Lagoon is nearby, which is a protected Natura area and many rare species of birds stop there during their migration. The sandy beach is the biggest in Corfu. The wild virgin nature is unique in Corfu and the beach reminds one of a desert with its sand dunes and cacti.

The peace and tranquillity in the area make it suitable for going within oneself and meditating. The cedar forest at the end of the beach is ideal for walking and exploring nature and the area is also ideal for adventure-lovers and those who like activities such as surfing and horse riding.
