Living Yolates Retreat on the Beautiful Island of Mallorca

Retreat to the stunning island of Mallorca and enjoy five days of daily Living Yolates, meditation, nourishing foods, nature hikes, the intentional pace of island life, supported by a loving community and Mikkala Marilyn Kissi.

Immerse yourself in the raw and mystic beauty of Mallorca. Soak up the Mediterranean sun, dive into crystal-clear waters, and let the island's enchanting atmosphere recharge your spirit.

Leave this retreat feeling inspired, connected, and deeply aligned with what truly matters to you.

Each day of our retreat starts in silence, allowing us to tap into the depths of our inner being and embrace the profound stillness that resides within. This sacred time of mindful awareness sets the tone for our transformative journey ahead.

The Living Yolates practices combine the best of yoga, pilates, dance, meditation, and time in nature. These holistic sessions are designed to harmonize your body, mind, and spirit, fostering a deep sense of connection.

The retreat program will encourage restoration, revitalization, journal time, and a deep connection to feminine leadership, strength, and softness. We must first connect with our body, intuition, and heart intelligence before we step out and take action in our lives - this is your opportunity to cultivate this deep connection with yourself and fill your own cup, first!

In the evenings, as the day gently comes to a close, we surrender into long restorative sessions that nourish our bodies and souls with healing practices and soothing sunset meditations. We prioritize self-care and offer a space for deep relaxation, where stresses melt away, and a sense of tranquility washes over us. These serene moments invite us to let go and surrender to the healing power of the present moment.

Our retreat offers a perfect balance between group activities and moments of solitude. Whether you want to relax in silence by the pool and embrace a precious pause, or explore the island with new friends, everything is optional – this is your retreat to create!

Who is this retreat for?

The Softness Within retreat is suitable for all levels of movement and fitness experience. Everyone is welcome, from beginners to advanced practitioners and teachers, and everyone in between. 

Living Yolates cultivates a space where individuals with varying backgrounds come together to embrace the beauty of self-discovery, feminine leadership and growth. All you need to bring is an open mind and heart, a sense of curiosity, and the desire to elevate your energy and mind set.

Rützu is located 35 km from Palma, in the northwest of the island, between Valldemossa and Soller – its atmosphere is such that many artists have made it their home.
