UPCOMING RETREAT: 25-31 JANUARY 2027 IN SRI LANKA

Wellness Retreat sRI LANKA

wILD wITHIN

25-31 JANUARY 2027 · aHANGAMA, SRI LANKA

For seven days, we’ll make a beautiful jungle villa near the coast our home. Our days will combine yoga, Pilates, meditation and sound healing with plenty of time to slow down, soak up the sun and connect with like-minded women.

And because Sri Lanka is made for adventure, we’ll get out and explore too — surfing in the Indian Ocean, discovering the island’s nature, animals and culture, enjoying local food and sharing unforgettable experiences together.

WILD WITHIN is all about finding that balance between stillness and adventure, slowing down and feeling fully alive.

Come exactly as you are and leave feeling reconnected, energised and inspired — with memories and friendships that stay with you long after the retreat ends.

Where you will stay

The Jungle Villa

For the week, we’ll call The Jungel Villa our home. A private boutique retreat villa tucked away in nearly two acres of lush tropical jungle in Ahangama, on Sri Lanka’s South Coast, just 7 minutes from the beach.

The villa combines modern comfort with the peaceful feeling of being completely surrounded by nature. Think tropical greenery, an infinity pool, beautiful outdoor spaces and our own private yoga shala overlooking the jungle.

All bedrooms are air-conditioned and have their own en-suite bathroom, with a mix of shared twin rooms and a limited number of private rooms available. Daily housekeeping is included, so you can fully settle in and enjoy the retreat.

Close enough to explore Ahangama’s beaches, surf spots, cafés and local life, yet tucked away from the busyness — our little jungle home for a week of slowing down, connecting and adventure.

As some guests may choose to arrive in Sri Lanka a few days earlier, the transfer will leave at one designated time. You’re welcome to join this transfer if it fits your travel plans.

If you arrive earlier or prefer to make your own way to the villa, you are of course free to arrange your own transportation.

Absolutely.

The AIKO Wellness Retreat is not about advanced yoga poses or performance. It is designed for women who want to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and learn practical tools to create more balance in everyday life.

Whether you’ve never stepped onto a yoga mat before or already have experience, you’ll feel completely welcome. All yoga, Pilates, meditation and breathwork sessions are guided step by step and can be adapted to your own level and needs.

The focus is on feeling good in your body, calming your mind, and taking time for yourself — not on flexibility or fitness.

All you need is an open mind and a willingness to show up for yourself.

Of course.

Every participant who joined our previous retreats came on her own, so you certainly won’t be the only one.

This retreat attracts women who are looking to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and spend a few days surrounded by like-minded women. The small group setting makes it easy to connect, while also giving you plenty of space for yourself when needed.

Many women arrive alone and leave with meaningful new friendships.

Just come as you are.

Most participants are typically between 21 and 35 years old, though there is no strict age limit.

What matters most is that you feel called to take a few days for yourself, slow down, and reconnect with what truly matters.

After registration, you will receive a detailed packing list.

We recommend bringing:

  • Comfortable clothing for yoga and movement
  • Walking shoes
  • Swimwear
  • A reusable water bottle
  • A journal
  • Layers for cooler mornings and evenings

Yoga mats and props will be provided.

REVIEWS

I joined the AIKO Wellness Retreat in Spain and it exceeded all expectations. In just five days, I felt more rested than after a two-week holiday. The yoga, pilates, meditation sessions and workshops were all guided with great care and professionalism. Combined with the beautiful location, nourishing food and wonderful group atmosphere, it was an experience I'll never forget. Thank you, Tiny, for creating something so special.
