Hi! It’s Zhenya and Zhenya here 🙂 Today, we’re excited to tell you about the retreat we hosted last weekend!
As some of you probably remember from our announcements, we gathered at a remote Mongolian-style glamping site with cosy yurts and spacious verandas. It was the perfect setting for relaxation and self-exploration!
Upon arrival, everyone had the chance to try on traditional Mongolian attire. The vibrant colors and luxurious fabrics instantly transformed our friends into regal khanums, and these outfits, paired with authentic decor, made for some amazing photos! 🤩
Our yoga session took place in a shared space adorned with artefacts from traditional Mongolian life. We offered an invigorating Hatha Yoga Flow class featuring challenging transitions and fun core work that pushed everyone’s limits. Our guests rose to the occasion with incredible strength and endurance!💪 The following movement session was even more intense, with contagious energy filling the space. “Yoga” Zhenya stayed on video duty, but the music was so inviting that she couldn’t help but sway and join the dance!
Afterwards, we enjoyed a well-deserved BBQ feast, complemented by calming tea and homemade treats from Katya—delicious cookies and pirozhki that felt like a warm hug after a full day.
Over BBQ, we played a game of thought-provoking questions, leading to the heartfelt sharing of memories, worries, and hidden talents. The atmosphere was warm and open, creating bonds that felt truly special.
The following day began with an early morning hike up the mountain, treating us to beautiful forest views. We meditated by a small waterfall, sitting on smooth rocks, surrounded by nature’s beauty. Afterwards, we had a traditional morning yoga session, and the retreat concluded with a healthy Mongolian breakfast and energising coffee, thoughtfully arranged by one of our guests. It was the perfect end to an unforgettable adventure!
A huge, heartfelt thank you to everyone involved! It was wonderful connecting with both old friends and new ones. The memories we create will last a lifetime…
So, what’s next, lovely people? We look forward to embarking on a new adventure with you all.
