MY RETREAT

Dive deep into yourSelf. Guided by the five elements (Earth-Water-Air-Fire-Ether), where we’ll explore different aspects of ourSelves!
Imagine waking up to the sound of the sea breeze moving through olive trees. Meditating at sunrise right by the seaside. Practicing yoga and hearing nothing but the sounds of crashing waves. Embracing the sunset on hikes up to a beautiful viewpoint, relaxing Ayurvedic massages and learning a deep understanding of the elements and ourSelves during different workshops. 

 

Enjoy and relish in the beauty of Kea’s nature during daily yoga practice, relax into this laid back beachfront oasis with the support of meditative offerings, and enjoy the familial and communal experience of sitting together around an abundant feast or fire.

Morning Offering

 

We will illuminate our conscious awareness during morning Vinyasa Yoga practice, whether it’s through strength, flexibility, or simply just breathing better so that your body is more intune and balanced.

Evening Offering

Evening Yin Yoga or Yoga Nidra will bring a beautiful balance within our energy systems and a unique sense of calmness that we will feel both physically and mentally.

Cynthia Kamprath

Your teacher

Cynthia was born and raised in Germany. Directly after finishing high school she worked as a police officer for a number of years, but felt unfulfilled and looked to broaden the ways she helps others.  

 

This search led Cynthia on a journey to experience different healing modalities, enrolling in psychology studies and Hatha and Vinyasa yoga teacher trainings in Columbia.
