There are two pools, comfortable lounges for chilling out, long tables for entertaining evenings and dinners.

Sports & Yoga

One thing in advance: Everything is possible, nothing is mandatory.

If you e.g. For example, if you only want to do sports once a week, then that's completely okay. We don't attract people who come on vacation to shred and want to fly home with a six-pack.

We also don't attract people who want to have a deeply spiritual experience in the desert on retreat and chant Om Shanti all day. Others cover that.

With us you will find relaxed people who like to live a healthy and balanced life or who want to give their life a kick-start towards a sustainably healthier direction with this retreat.

  • Our HIIT fitness classes are designed to make you feel energetic and fit when you leave.
  • Our yoga is designed to stretch not only your body, but also your mind and get in touch with your emotions. The yoga sessions allow you to spend time with yourself and give you the peace that you might not always get in everyday life.

Example weekly plan

Day 1

Arrive and immerse yourself

Our shuttle will pick you up from the airport in Heraklion and take you directly to our luxurious villa in Skaleta. Check-in starts at 5:00 p.m.

We await you there with a welcome drink and delicious food. You can also look forward to your comfortable bed. In it you can recover from the trip and prepare for the exciting next day of the retreat.

Day 2

The kick-off of your adventure

Your Greece adventure begins with an energetic boot camp session, followed by a delicious breakfast.

Your time at the pool, where you'll make cool new friends, will only be interrupted for lunch together.

A yoga session by the pool brings relaxation, followed by a delicious dinner prepared by our private chef.

The day ends with an engaging lecture on nutrition and exercise - so you can get the most out of your activities both at camp and at home.

Day 3

Dinner in a real tavern

We start Sunday with another boot camp session.

If you already have sore muscles from the previous days, you can just relax and look forward to the yoga session in the afternoon.

After yoga, we walk inland to a local restaurant, which gives us an insight into Cretan culture. Get ready for a real Crete Experience!

Day 4

Thank God it's Monday

How wonderful it is to be in Greece on Easter Monday.
It would be pretty warm at home and we're sitting here by the beautiful pool.
Today we will take a boot camp break so that your body can recover a bit. We enjoy a yoga session by the pool in the morning.

We will create dinner together during a cooking class with our private chef. He shows us the magic of Greek cuisine.
Good luck!

Day 5

Let's create memories

Today we start again full of energy with a boot camp session.
Afterwards we enjoy the delicious breakfast together.

In the afternoon there will be a creative workshop in which you can create a souvenir that you can take home with you.

The evening yoga will totally relax us all. Let's eat and then fall into bed relaxed.

Day 6

Sun, beach and fun

Today you have time to explore the nearby beaches (if you haven't already).

Otherwise we have a lot of time for sport, community and for yourself.
How about writing a letter today to someone you've been wanting to tell for a long time that you appreciate them?

Day 7

Market excursion & closing evening

One of the most special days in the Fitness & Yoga Retreat is the excursion day to the nearby town of Rhetymno.
There is a weekly market there every Thursday where you can buy beautiful souvenirs as well as delicious local products.
Enjoy a local lunch there before you can enjoy your last yoga class back at the villa in the afternoon.
The last dinner together is also coming up. Let’s enjoy the presence of all the lovely retreat guests once again.
We toast an unforgettable week with a delicious glass.

Day 8

The Grand Finale

It's time to say goodbye - but not to be sad!

The friendships you made this week will stay with you for a long time. Believe us, we speak from experience.

The final boot camp before breakfast gives you the final energy kick before our shuttle takes you to the airport in Heraklion.

Hello home.
Hello new, healthy habits!
PS: Check-out is at 11 a.m.

How big is the retreat group?

There are usually 8 - 12 participants at the Crete Retreat plus two people from the Templeshape team.

Are there any specific requirements (fitness, yoga,...)?

We design our fitness and yoga sessions so that both beginners and advanced users get their money's worth. So you don't need to have any previous knowledge of yoga or boot camp fitness. Everyone takes part at their own pace and will ensure that exercises are carried out cleanly to prevent injuries.

Is there a compulsory program?

There is no compulsory program.


If you don't feel like doing sports or yoga or going on a trip, then you simply can't take part. Nobody will be angry with you - it's your vacation and you should relax the way that suits you best!

Which age groups are represented?

We are mostly a diverse group, with the majority of the group mostly being in their 30s.


So far we've had everything from 20 to 70 and we love this compilation. We would really like to encourage everyone to come along, because age plays absolutely no role for us.

Flights aren't included, are they?

That is correct. Everyone books their own flights :)

What are the cancellation conditions?

Cancellation up to 8 weeks before the retreat: You will be refunded 80% of your total payment (minus the deposit).

Cancellation 4-8 weeks before the retreat:
You will be refunded 35% of your total payment (minus the deposit).

Cancellation within 0-4 weeks before the retreat: You will not be refunded anything as it is almost impossible to fill the space at such short notice.

I just returned from a one-week yoga & bootcamp retreat in Crete organized by Templeshape and I must say I am struggling to get back to reality today! Despite the quite unstable weather (it rained 80% of the time), I had such a wonderful time connecting with incredible women there, making new meaningful connections and experimenting new things, be it the location itself (amazing modern Greek villa!), sports, local activities, local food, well-being and nutrition workshops, traditional Greek restaurant with live shows, wine tasting, Greek cooking workshop etc. Everything was so nicely organized and thought after thanks to the owners Dani and Mira that weren’t there but that had organized everything in the background, and also and utmost thanks to our dear hostesses on-site, Livia and Selina, who made our experience at the villa absolutely unforgettable. THANK YOU for everything you have done for us and for taking such good care of each of us with such empathy.I truly enjoyed the relaxing and grounded yoga sessions of Selina and Livia’s challenging sweaty bootcamps by the pool or by the beach!A big thank you as well to the whole team, maids, masseuses and the beloved cooking team that made our stay so enjoyable, relaxing, and fun at the same time as well. I'll miss our dancing evenings and much more. As said multiple times, this is no goodbye but see you around in Tsüri!! With love & warm regards, Elodie
I came home from the retreat in Crete so happy, satisfied and enchanted. It was my first retreat and it had always been a dream of mine to do something like that. It totally met my expectations and even exceeded them. It was awesome!!!It was so nice, we had a relaxed group, we danced and laughed a lot. The villa with a view of the sea is fantastic. The food is so delicious, healthy and everything is freshly prepared. The training was a lot of fun, with boot camp and yoga it was totally varied. The two hosts (Selina & Livia) led the retreat with passion, a lot of motivation and so lovingly🫶 I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart and also to the Templeshape team for the very professional organization.❤️I will definitely book a retreat with Templeshape again and can recommend it to everyone!
I attended the retreat in Crete with my mom. We really really liked it. The two hosts (Livia and Selina) were really great. Two really great people with a lot of energy and passion❤️. We felt comfortable right from the start and the boot camp and yoga sessions were really very good. The villa is fantastic and our group was also great. We had a great mix of ages and really had a lot of fun, beautiful and funny moments together. There was also enough time for your own activities. Thanks to Tempelshape for this great week 😊
