Testimonial
(από το retreat 2025)
First of all, thank you very much for this wonderful retreat! I enjoyed especially classes in the evening watching the Ikarian sunset. I definitely was able to step out of my comfort zone and did things I would have never done else. I feel calm, wiser and stronger. I loved the program you organised for us! It was a nice mix of everything and I feel like I have to come back to Ikaria after all beautiful places I got to know thanks to you! I especially liked the walk through the forest and the day in Therma. I hope you keep doing what you are doing! This retreat taught me patience, acceptance and making compromises. I wish you all the best and I hope to see you again at the next yoga retreat! And don’t forget to smile.

Here is the English translation of the testimonials:
“My beloved Fotini and Petros, I decided to come on this trip with you because of my great need to relax and connect with my body. I couldn’t have imagined that this journey with you would lead me to dream of new possibilities and discover desires I had deliberately set aside. Fotini, you are a wonderful teacher full of light. We need people who guide us and open new paths for us. Thank you for helping me love yoga and want to integrate it into my life! Petros, a big thank you for the impeccable organization, guidance, and facilitation. It’s been years—I think since I was very young—since I felt the emotion that grips me right now. I don’t want this beautiful journey of soul and body to end. I met wonderful people who, I feel, all resembled little bees (myself included) wanting to be close to Fotini and Petros. I am grateful to have experienced Ikaria through this retreat. The only thing that softens my sadness of saying goodbye is that I will follow you on other trips, which I eagerly await! Fotini and Petros, you are bright beacons in our lives. With gratitude,” P.M.
“Petros & Fotini, Thank you so much for this experience. I did not know what to expect, as I have never done a yoga retreat before, but I absolutely loved it! The sessions were run really well, and especially when it came to catering to all difficulties. The way that you allow the schedule for flexibility is perfect. I’m so glad I got to experience Ikaria, and I will definitely consider going to another retreat, perhaps in the winter! Thank you again, for an unforgettable experience. Namaste.” J.G.
“Dear Petros and Fotini, Words cannot fully express my gratitude for the Life-changing experience at your Yoga retreat in the Blue Zone. From start to finish, I loved every moment – even the uncomfortable ones, which I now see as the only true path to growth. Your retreat has inspired me to be happier, healthier, and with a renewed sense of purpose. The journey was long, but every second was worth it. This experience has truly transformed my life, and I’m looking forward to joining you again for another yoga adventure. Blessings to you both, and thank you for my lovely gift! Thank you for creating such a remarkable space for growth and connection. With heartfelt thanks. Thank you for my stunning gift.” A.B.
“Dear Petros & Fotini, This has been an experience of a lifetime. I have loved every moment of our time on Ikaria and have deep appreciation of the space that was held for us to explore our body, mind and soul while connecting with the soul and essence of this incredible island. I will never be able to explain the feeling that I had here and I’m positive I will carry it with me always. My best wishes.” S.B.
“Beloved Fotini and Petros, another journey comes to an end! I leave FULL of experiences, images, memories, and encounters with beautiful people. FULL of the influence of YOGA, the energy of Ikaria, which I wouldn’t have known so well in any other way. I leave full of energy, appetite, and a willingness to improve physically and mentally, continuing yoga and being grateful for everything that I am, I have, and I have the possibility to do… such as coming to your yoga retreats. You are the most amazing hosts… You take care of every last detail. Thank you. Until we meet again.” P.L.

“Fotini and Petros, This is my first time with you, and the experience was unexpectedly so good! It exceeded my expectations! I met nice people, I laughed a lot, I had great fun, I ate well and a lot, and I enjoyed yoga with Fotini in this fantastic and natural setting with the perfect view. This trip left only good and pleasant impressions, and we will definitely meet again. Stay well and continue your efforts! Thank you for the experience and the positive energy.” F.K.
“Dear Fotini and Petros, Thank you for a really beautiful yoga retreat, and I’ve enjoyed every moment, especially the variety of yoga types offered from you. The balance of yoga with the trips has been perfect. Perhaps some more sound bath would be even better. Please let me know about winter retreats available and keep me informed. Thank you again, Love & best wishes.” S.R.

“Beloved Fotini and Petros. Thank you very much for the beautiful moments we shared, both during the yoga classes with our incredible teacher and during the other activities you organized with great care and love. Although, due to the children and the heatstroke I suffered for a few hours after the excursion to the beautiful Seychelles beach, I couldn’t participate in all the activities, everything was so beautiful, relaxing, and unforgettable! I will not forget the sunsets along with Fotini’s positive guidance and her encouragement to smile! I will see you at the next one! With love.” I.V.
“Unique, Authentic & Unforgettable! Ikarian balm for the body, mind and soul with the divine guidance of Fotini (a goddess!) and gentle Petros.

“Beloved Fotini and Petros, Thank you very much for the wonderful experience, the hospitality, and the care.

With love and appreciation.” E.A.
“Your concept is fully holistic. The combination of internal and external discoveries evolves persons, a literary journey important for your physical and psychological well-being. An external journey to explore new places with the help of the inside recommendations. I’m grateful to have discovered Ikaria with you and lovely persons in the yoga group. Thank you!” C.S.
