About this Retreat
Alex's passion is discovering the power of the breath, emotions, mind, and anything our bodies consume. Since 2010, he has been practising meditation, which, for him, is the foundation for almost everything. He is a certified yoga teacher in different yoga styles (1000 hours+), and to deepen his knowledge of working with the breath and the body, he has completed the Breathwork Teacher Training under Anthony Abbagnano at Alchemy of Breath School and further studied with other breathwork schools (BioDynamic Breathwork (BBTRS), Wim Hof and Dan Brule).
Alex worked for many years in hospitality and as a chef for a restaurant in Germany, specialising in dishes for people with food allergies. His passion for healthy food is always part of his retreats.
He has also studied computer science and business informatics for 6 years and has run his own web and IT service company for 10 years. He knows the challenges of a busy and stressful life. For him, meditation and the use of the breath are the foundation for dealing with nearly every situation in life. Drawing on many retreats, workshops, and courses worldwide, he combines what he learned and will share from these traditions, which have further developed through his practice.
Martina’s purpose in life is to share, support and give. Her intention is to empower people through breathwork and yoga so they can rise up and see their own purpose and truth.
She is a 400-hour Hatha yoga, 200-hour Synergy yoga, and 100-hour Yin yoga teacher. When she is teaching, she creates a safe and sacred space where her students can find stillness in thematic yoga sequences to reconnect with their body, mind, and soul, and feel the balance between strengthening and relaxation with breathing awareness.
She invites her students into their own greatness, offering resources to manage daily life while having some fun along the way ;-). In 2017 she fell in love with Breathwork and began to discover conscious connected breath in her teacher training with Alchemy of Breath. For Martina, breathwork is one of the powerful tools where she experienced a massive shift in herself and saw happen in others. She realised the breathwork practice brings awareness to our lives and the decisions we make.
Awareness is the first step in CHANGE.
Details of this retreat
Are you looking for more than just a yoga retreat near the beach in Sri Lanka?
Since 2017, Green Peace Inn has been offering an intensive eight-day retreat combining breathwork, meditation, yoga, self-exploration, and plant-based nutrition.
Each day includes guided practices designed to strengthen the connection between your body, mind, and emotions. Alongside the practical sessions, you will learn accessible theory about topics such as emotional patterns, the nervous system, and the effects of breathwork, meditation, and yoga.
Our aim is to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself while giving you practical techniques that you can continue using independently after the retreat. Some of the knowledge we share is usually taught during longer training programmes, but we have selected the most relevant insights and made them accessible within an eight-day experience.
The programme is complemented by an Ayurvedic massage and treatment, a supportive group environment, and freshly prepared plant-based meals. Our varied menu features creative dishes inspired by local ingredients and offers a different culinary experience each day.
This retreat is designed for people who want to practise, learn, reconnect, and return home with a clearer understanding of themselves.
