About organizer

Meet Kat Paraskevopoulos:

Hi! I’m so happy you found us here. My name is Katrina Paraskevopoulos and I am so excited to have Fun in the Sun with you in Amorgos. Greece is truly my happy place in the world. I’m Greek American and believe Greece has a special ability to heal every worry, relieve deep tension, bring comfort to your belly, and leave a big smile on your face. It’s one of my life goals to spread the bliss, peace, and healing of Greece with all of you.

I’m a holistic life and transformational coach and help people find the home within themselves and live a life they truly love. I help people build a balanced lifestyle, create and sustain new habits that up-level their life, ditch the diet mindset, and develop a positive & unstoppable mindset. I’ve worked as a wellness & fitness coach for over 10 years and love teaching about the power of moving the body and connecting with it.

As the founder of Eyia Retreats, a retreat company and travel agency for Greece travel, it’s my absolute greatest joy to curate and host retreats. We have hosted over 10 retreats in Greece and I am so excited to meet you in Amorgos!

I love personal and spiritual growth and helping others on their journey inward. I believe it’s the most challenging and most rewarding journey you will ever embark upon.

Meet Rebecca Thorne:

Hey beautiful soul! My name is Becca and I am so excited to be one of your retreat leaders! I am from Los Angeles, California but I fell in love with Greece and with a Greek man in 2014 when I first visited. I now live in Athens, Greece with my husband, daughter, and two cats.

I am 730-hour yoga alliance certified in vinyasa, transformational hatha, restorative, yin & yang, pre & post-natal, therapeutic, and SUP yoga. I have been teaching yoga for 9 years and practicing for over 15 years. I am an international holistic health coach, working with people around the world supporting and empowering them on their journeys to live their most authentic, joyous lives in bodies that they cherish and respect. I also work with Beautycounter advocating for cleaner beauty and skincare products.

The most favorite thing I get to create and experience are retreats. I have been leading yoga and wellness retreats since 2018. This will be my 3rd retreat in Amorgos, my 7th retreat overall, and my 9th time in Amorgos. I cannot wait to meet you in Amorgos, Greece Summer 2023 for this Fun in the Sun Wellness Retreat! It’ll be the best one yet.

Introduction

The Fun in the Sun Retreat is based on a simple yet possibly life-changing goal: have as much fun under the Amorgian sun as possible! Ditch the stress, to-do list, chores, work, and “shoulds." Follow the beatings of your heart that bring you to bliss. Let go of what’s burdening you and take care of your heart and soul. You'll also take care of your body with movement classes, yoga, and other options of outdoor activities and adventures.
