The Sacred Fig Retreat 2025

Our annual Greek Island retreat with Krissy Jones (founder of Sky Ting Yoga), Anton Brandt (Fig Founder). Space is limited to 20 students. 

For many of us, our day-to-day reality is a demanding job + daily social obligations.  Tech that was designed to simplify our lives has in some ways made our lives more complicated. Our culture tells us that being 'busy' is a good thing… it means we're in demand + successful.  Whether we see this busy-ness as self-imposed or not, it’s hard to align ourselves with the person we want to be.

When was the last time you felt fully recharged?  When was the last time you had the space to dedicate to the things that you truly find important? This retreat is designed to re-align & re-calibrate.  To step away from our day-to-day dramas, and get a greater perspective on ourselves, our goals, our desires, & our friendships. We've thoughtfully curated the entire week for you. 

At this Greek Island retreat - expect afternoon naps on the stone terraces, and sunset swims in the Aegean. Expect gorgeous meals prepared by our favorite chef, and world-class yoga asana. Expect to create new bonds, share surprising conversations & laughter... and still find plenty of time for self-reflection.

 

Daily Schedule

This retreat takes place from June 12-18, 2025.  Plan on arriving at the property before 5pm on June 12th, and leaving after yoga & breakfast on June 18th. When you arrive at the port, a Greek person who doesn't speak English will pick you up and will likely be over-caffeinated. maybe even in a cute Jeep! Each day is balanced between group activities, and plenty of free time to do as you wish. Everything is optional: you can get into as much or as little as you want. Below is a schedule just to give you a general idea (it tends to vary once we actually get going). Whether you want to embrace your introvert, or hang out with new friends - there will be plenty of opportunity for both.
