“The location on a hill with a breathtaking sea view was ideal. The total darkness and silence at night created a relaxed atmosphere, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The accommodation offered a variety of rooms and hideaways. The food, mainly from their own garden, was lovingly prepared and rounded off the experience perfectly. Özlem's empathetic guidance was outstanding; she was flexible and catered to individual wishes, making the yoga practice suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners. Each class had its own theme that harmoniously linked the practices. You could feel the love and passion that was put into the preparation and realisation. In a small group with different characters, Özlem created a pleasant and enriching atmosphere for everyone.”

“I can wholeheartedly recommend Özlem’s yoga retreat. She is an incredibly relaxed and enthusiastic yoga teacher who brings great passion and attention to detail to her classes. Despite having little interest in yoga before, Özlem managed to ignite my enthusiasm through her sessions.The week was simply wonderful—everything was thoughtfully planned down to the smallest detail and perfectly organized. Each day began with a soothing morning session. Even as a beginner, I always felt well-supported. Özlem’s teaching style makes yoga accessible to everyone. There was no pressure to participate in all the activities, which I personally appreciated, and to my surprise, I ended up joyfully participating in everything.This week gave me so much. I left the retreat feeling incredibly relaxed and positive. In addition to the yoga, Özlem planned beautiful activities like hikes to the most stunning bays and relaxing beach days. The food was also outstanding—healthy, delicious, and carefully selected. Özlem’s positive energy is truly inspiring, and her passion for yoga is contagious. I’m a big fan of hers. Thank you, Özlem, for a fantastic week—it was a wonderful experience and a true enrichment. I highly recommend Özlem’s retreat!”
