Women's Kundalini
& Gravel

Greece, 18-24 May 2025

"You are one ride away from a good mood." – Sarah Bentley

Join me for a rejuvenating week of Kundalini yoga and exhilarating gravel cycling on the stunning island of Limnos, Greece. This unique retreat combines the physical and spiritual aspects of Kundalini yoga with the thrill of exploring picturesque landscapes by bike. Immerse yourself in a journey of self-discovery, wellness, and adventure in a serene environment surrounded by the Aegean Sea.

 

We will cover 50 to 100 kilometers each day on non-technical routes, exploring historical architectural sites, traditional villages, and secluded beaches for refreshing dips in the crystal-clear waters. We will ride as a group, and nobody gets left behind. This week is alll about bringing women together for a nourishing and rejuvenating experience of community, nature, yoga, cycling, and spirituality. Together, we'll create lifelong memories and friendships. What could be better!
