The Retreatment Greece
LED BY TARYN AND ALLY BOGARD • MAY 7-11, 2026
HOSTED BY MANDARIN ORIENTAL
Step into Self
In a world that continually asks us to move faster, this 4-day retreat is an invitation to move inward. This container is devoted to presence, embodiment and inner recalibration. It unfolds as a gentle yet powerful journey of embodied awareness.
Guided by Taryn Toomey, Founder of The Class, alongside Co-Facilitator Ally Bogard, the experience unfolds through movement, breath, stillness and reflection.
Movement becomes a language. Breath becomes a guide. Stillness becomes a teacher.
What You Will Experience
Embodied Practice
Daily sessions led by Taryn Toomey draw from The Class method. A music-driven, somatic movement practice designed to regulate the nervous system and release stored energy through intentional physical expression. Each practice invites inquiry, emotional awareness and embodied clarity, allowing you to move, feel and integrate at your own pace. Together, Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino and The Class create an experience that is intentional, grounded and deeply human.
Restoration & Integration
Complementing the more dynamic practices, Ally Bogard offers restorative, yoga-based sessions focused on precision, softness and nervous-system regulation. These moments of restoration create space for integration, grounding the body and calming the mind.
Reflection & Presence
Throughout the retreat, moments of guided reflection and intentional pauses allow the experience to deepen beyond the physical. Time is deliberately unstructured where needed, encouraging rest, presence and personal insight.
Nourishment
All meals are thoughtfully prepared by the Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino culinary team, inspired by the Mediterranean landscape and seasonal ingredients. Each dish is designed to support balance, vitality and ease, aligning nourishment with the rhythm of the retreat.
Community
While deeply personal, “Step into Self” is also a shared experience. Practicing, resting and reflecting together creates a quiet sense of connection. One rooted not in performance or comparison, but in presence and belonging.
Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner are included in the package. Also, on each day there will be either a massage or an activity/experience.
Location and Accomodations
The Mandarin Oriental in Costa Navarino cascades down a hillside on a beautiful beachfront location, offering views of a vast Mediterranean landscape.
