A one-day immersive experience blending movement, education, and healing — thoughtfully curated to reconnect body, mind, and spirit. From energizing flows to grounding rituals and practical wellness tools, this gathering invites you to explore a more mindful way of living.

Agenda

  • Start your day with a dynamic vinyasa session led by Tanya, designed to open and strengthen the body, connect with your breath, and awaken your energy. Accompanied by the soul-soothing live handpan music of SoundofAbdopamine, the experience is both grounding and energizing.

  • Explore an unexpected combination of rich, aromatic coffees with a selection of fine cheeses, each chosen to complement and enhance the other. Uncover how aged, robust, or delicate creamy cheese reveal the unique character of a range of specialty coffee. Perfect for enthusiasts and novices alike, it’s an indulgent exploration of two beloved worlds coming together in perfect harmony.

  • In this open-format discussion featuring IIN Nutritionist Viky Maria Vittoria, we’ll explore how gut health influences immunity, digestion, mood, and even skin clarity. This welcoming and interactive session is designed to inform and empower — you’ll have the chance to ask your questions, share your experiences, and walk away with actionable knowledge to support your gut and overall wellbeing.

  • Tap into your creativity while crafting your own natural candle in this hands-on workshop led by Innara — a UAE-based, sustainability-driven brand that repurposes construction waste to create beautiful, functional jars. Founded in 2018, Innara focuses on community connection, eco-conscious design, and meaningful engagement. Through this session, you'll not only make something beautiful, but also learn about sustainable craftsmanship and intentional living.

  • Close your day with a deeply restorative journey blending sound therapy and heart-opening cacao. Led by Estefa Pastor, this session combines the gentle yet powerful effects of ceremonial-grade cacao with the vibrational healing of crystal bowls and sacred instruments. Cacao — rich in antioxidants and minerals — opens the heart and brings emotional clarity, while sound healing works on a cellular level to rebalance and restore. The perfect way to integrate and ground your experience.
