Shri retreats story
Born from 25 years of friendship and a shared dream to create something magical, filled with love and lasting moments.
Behind the Retreat
the hosts
//Meet Maria & Piibe.
Shri retreats was born from a friendship of twenty-five years and a simple idea: to share the magic of the island and create a dreamy experience for people who love nature, adventure and yoga. Piibe has called Corfu home for seven summers now, exploring it through and through, she knows every hidden cove, quiet trail and the coziest tavernas. Maria brings yoga background and her design background to add grounding and landing to it all.
Together, we are launching our first Shri retreat called 'Wild Corfu' - magical days on a beautiful island, spent the way we'd organize a dream trip for our most dear ones.
The Beginning
Most retreats either keep you on a mat all day or hand you a packed itinerary with no room to breathe. We wanted something in between — structure enough to feel held, freedom enough to actually explore.
Maria brings the practice. Piibe brings the island.

I lead every practice on the retreat, from the grounding opening circle on day 1 to the integrative final session on a last day. My teaching meets people where they are, whether you've practiced for years or you're stepping onto the mat for the first time.

Piibe
I've lived on magical Corfu for seven years, long enough to find the true gems most visitors never reach: the beach you can only get to on foot, small cute mountain villages and the local family-owned tavernas with the most delicious food.
I have 10+ years of experience in the hospitality industry, but I've also studied old Greek, among other things. I'm the organizational engine behind the retreat and I can't wait to share the beauty of this island with others.
