Escape to Serifos, Greece, for a week-long yoga retreat that combines the traditional practice of Ashtanga with the stunning natural beauty of the Cycladic Islands.

From morning Mysore classes to sunset philosophy discussions, this retreat will leave you feeling refreshed, empowered and inspired.
I enjoyed the yoga retreat on Serifos with Tania so much! She pushes her students to go further (but never too much) and gives very useful adjustments and tips. Altogether I can highly recommend going on a retreat with Tania!
I really enjoyed the interaction with the participants from all over the world and the afternoon workshops which were individually adapted to the group. I would like to come back again and again!

The retreat exceeded all my expectations. The week with Tania helped a lot to learn the basics about asana but also philosophy.
I highly recommend this retreat to anyone looking to deepen their practice. It was a great mix of classes (Led and Mysore) and workshops/discussions.
I absolutely loved the retreat with Tania in Serifos. She lives and loves Yoga and manages to pass her passion on to her students. Can not recommend a retreat with her enough.
Tania‘s retreat in Serifos was an exceptional experience on every level. The yoga practice was amazing, intense in the best way and I have really felt taken care of in my practice. It was a 10/10 holiday.
Beautiful retreat! Amazing surroundings, delicious food and great hotel. And last but not least: Excellent practice of Asthanga Yoga with Tania. She has a lot of experience and tips to help you deepen your practice and integrate it into your life. Totally recommendable.

A word from Tania Kemou
A journey of personal growth
Hi, I’m Tania and I’ve been practicing Ashtanga yoga for over a decade. This practice and especially my yearly travels to Mysore (the birthplace of Ashtanga) have changed my life and how I view the world. Now I want to share with you all the insights and blessings this practice and my teacher in India gave me.
This retreat is the opportunity for you to explore all aspects of Ashtanga Yoga, deepen your practice, gain new perspectives and draw inspiration.
I want you to feel empowered and strong by learning how to use yoga to improve your health, life and relationships.
Every time I leave India, both my heart and mind are full. My goal is for you to leave this retreat the same way.
A journey of personal growth and at the same time an opportunity to escape, explore and evolve, this retreat is for all those who are seeking “something more”.

The Yoga Practice
Small group, big results
In my retreats I meet students where they are. Beginners and more experienced practitioners can coexist and profit from personalised instructions catered to their needs.
If you are a beginner, after this retreat you will have the knowledge necessary to start building a self practice. If you are already experienced I will help you reach further, get unstuck and realise how much more you are capable of.
- Bespoke guidance - tailored to your unique needs and goals
- Suitable for all levels from beginner to advanced
- Morning Mysore class
- Afternoon workshops & philosophy
- 2 Led classes with pranayama & meditation
In Mysore class you will practice individually, each at your own pace and working on your particular needs. In Led class we will work through Primary series, following the traditional Sanskrit counting.
The afternoon workshops will allow you to dive deeper into the foundations of Ashtanga yoga and build a sustainable practice. In between practices there will be chanting and philosophy lectures followed by group discussions.
