Meet the Teacher

Hi! I’m Elle, a yoga teacher based in Málaga, Spain, with over five years of yoga teaching experience. My classes are spicy and creative, built on intelligent yet playful movement, while still allowing space for softness and introspection.

What I love most (and what I believe to be one of my greatest strengths) is helping my students build their practice from the ground up, making what once seemed impossible suddenly feel within reach. Which boosts confidence, makes the time on the mat so much fun and allows you to meet yourself right where you are at.

In class with me, you’ll deepen both your physical practice and your connection to yourself.

On this retreat, I will help you deepen your practice in a way that feels both challenging and nourishing, leaving you feeling more connected, clear, and embodied.

I can’t wait to see you there!

Location

Karlovac County, Croatia

We’ll be staying in a secluded eco-estate in central Croatia, in the forest and countryside about an hour south of Zagreb and close to Plitvice Lakes National Park.

With its lush plum orchards and vibrant greenery, this utterly private location offers the rare luxury of complete isolation from daily distractions.

Whether you are walking the estate’s marked hiking routes, breathing in the fresh air of the surrounding nature, or relaxing by the traditional wood stoves. It is a place where old-world charm meets modern comfort, allowing you to switch off from the world and truly realign with yourself.

The estate offers three ways to stay: the collective energy of the dorm, the charm of a shared twin room, or the elevated privacy of a private suite.

How to get there?

Simply take one of the many flights to Zagreb airport and we will pick you up from there.

Check-in: 15:00 (3 PM) on the 29th of August

Check-out: 11:00 (11 AM) on the 2nd of September

If your flights arrive earlier or later, that’s totally fine. we’ll coordinate arrival and departure times so everything runs smoothly. Once you’re registered, I’ll reach out closer to the date to collect flight details and confirm our group transport schedule
