A holistic journey of balance and renewal
Laura Dodd is a certified yoga and meditation teacher, and founder of the award-winning app and retreats The Yoga Class. With over ten years of experience, she has collaborated with leading brands and celebrities, sharing her philosophy of wellness and the transformative power of yoga.
Participants will enjoy a complete wellness experience including daily yoga and meditation sessions inspired by the elements — earth, water, air, and fire — designed to enhance body and mind connection, flexibility, strength, and inner peace. Each day features dynamic morning practices, relaxing yin and restorative sessions, breathing techniques, and guided meditation, promoting balance and rejuvenation. For those unable to attend the full program, there is also the option to join one-day sessions that capture the essence of the holistic journey.
The retreat also includes personalized wellness sessions with the Visbody Scanner, providing tailored recommendations based on individual body composition and fitness levels, along with spa treatments using Mandarin Oriental’s signature products. A skincare masterclass with 111SKIN products offers a complete skin care and renewal experience. Guests will also enjoy distinctive culinary experiences: French flavors at Brasserie de la Bay, modern and authentic Greek cuisine at Oliviera, Italian creations at Pizza Sapienza by Daniele Cason, and the unique Levantine-inspired concept at Tahir. The exploration of the area’s natural beauty is complemented by e-biking and beach walking meditation, offering a deep sense of connection with both body and environment.
Each day of the retreat is designed to create a complete experience, from a warm welcome with wellbeing gifts, to evening relaxation sessions and fine dining with breathtaking views of Messinia’s natural landscape.
For those seeking to experience harmony of body, mind, and spirit in its fullest form, Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino provides the ideal setting, guided by Laura Dodd in tune with the destination’s natural beauty. Guests may choose between a four-day holistic journey or specially designed one-day wellness programs meant to inspire balance, harmony, and renewal.
