Yoga X Socotra

A Journey Beyond, Yemen
25th Of January — 1st of February 2026

Hidden deep in the heart of the Indian Ocean, Socotra feels like a world untouched by time. A place where nature still breathes in its purest form.
Here, the desert meets the sea, ancient trees whisper their stories, and every sunrise feels like the beginning of something new.

We invite you to join us on a journey that goes far beyond a yoga retreat — a week to slow down, reconnect, and feel the gentle rhythm of life again.
Yoga becomes a way of listening. To your breath, to the wind, to the quiet within.
Some mornings we move as the sun rises, other times we rest, explore, or simply let the island guide us.

This experience is about presence, connection, and wonder — about remembering what it feels like to truly be alive.
‍
Let Socotra hold you, open you, and awaken something ancient within.

With warmth and open hearts,
‍
Katharina & Tour Socotra Team   🤎
