Why 2027?
Martina got pregnant in 2024, so Alex has to run the retreat centre for the first time after 7 years by himself. As he does not know how everything will unfold, how the season will go, or how the next years will go, he decided to move the men's retreat a few years back and take first the responsibility that is now present.
Why a Special Retreat for Men, and What Makes These Retreats Different?
Would you like to let go of old patterns holding you back from living the life you want?
Over the years, Martina and Alex have hosted more than 55 retreats in Sri Lanka and numerous workshops and retreats across Europe. Interestingly, most attendees at these events have been women, with an average attendance of about 80% female and 20% male. Many of the men who did attend were accompanying their partners. Men seem less inclined to participate in this kind of personal growth retreat. However, those who did attend often found these retreats exceptionally rewarding, discovering new areas for personal development.
The Need for a Men's Retreat
Over the years, observing the men in the retreats, Alex wanted to create a special version just for men because he could see what most men were struggling with, and at the same time, there was no space and room to give extra time and attention to these topics. So, he wanted to have a separate retreat where he could share his Breathwork, Meditation, Yoga, Tao and Tantra experience. Especially for men.
Men and Women: Equal Yet Different
While men and women are equal, they are not identical. We have different bodies, perceptions, and emotional responses, which necessitate varied approaches to spiritual practices. Men, for instance, sometimes avoid yoga classes due to feelings of inadequacy regarding flexibility. However, yoga is not about how flexible I am; yoga is so much more. It’s a way of living. It's the same with breathwork; it's not about how strong or how much I can breathe; there is so much more behind it to discover.
Balancing Masculine and Feminine Energies
Every individual possesses both masculine and feminine energies. Recognising and balancing these energies is essential for personal growth. This retreat offers men a safe environment to dive into breathwork, meditation, and yoga, integrating these practices with Tao teachings and surfing to enhance daily life.
This retreat aims to foster deep personal growth and holistic well-being by offering a space tailored to men's specific needs.

What People Are Saying
“I went into this retreat just wanting to explore breathwork, yoga and meditation a bit further with some professional guidance, but what I got out of it was so much more ! Martina and Alex have curated the most thoughtful program which will allow you to explore yourself in the safest hands. The week was such a loving journey with amazing and warm people to connect with. Honestly one of the best weeks of my life and memories I will hold onto forever. I’m also still shocked by the power of breathwork to unlock emotional and physical sensations/reactions. If you’re curious, I encourage you to take the next step - you’ll not regret it!”
