W orkshops - Peloponnesos
We are a retreat and holistic holiday centre on the beautiful Southern Greek mainland. We provide a serene natural environment in which you can relax and unwind.
We offer holistic workshops, pilgrimages and retreats with different themes including yoga, healer retreats and our exclusive dream healing pilgrimage.
Our holistic holidays aim to provide a course within a holiday environment. On our holistic holidays you can enjoy traditional holiday activities such as relaxing under sunny skies, swimming and enjoying the wonderful Greek taverns for an evening meal. You can walk in the surrounding foothills or explore the ancient and Byzantine sites. Visit the holistic holiday's page for more information. With regular session's every day, you will also have plenty of time to relax.
Accommodation is at the centre or in local traditional houses within walking distance from the centre. There is easy access to the sea and the local coastal and mountain villages. Lunch and some evening meals are provided at the centre.
Have a lot of fun and experience the local culture, while learning elements of technique, composition and storytelling through field sessions in olive groves, near ancient sites and on mountains.
Our one-week photo workshops are organised throughout the year in Xirokambi, a Greek village close to Sparta and Mystras, in the shadow of the Taygetos mountain range. The Taygetos is the highest mountain (2,407 meter) on the Peloponnese and a paradise for nature and outdoor photography lovers. Furthermore, the Taygetos gorges and the endless olive groves, in the Lacedaemon Valley, hide small ancient sites, Byzantine churches and monasteries, and traditional villages.
Each workshop caters for a maximum of 7 participants. You can expect to participate in many outdoor photo shoots, get pointers, return to sites, talk about results, discuss photography and photo gear, while enjoying the local culture and country life. We focus on the relationship between people and their environment and aim to contribute to sustainable agriculture and eco tourism in Greece.
Each workshop has its own theme. You find an up to date workshop calendar on our website. We also organise individual workshops.
