Yoga & Trail Retreat · August 16–20 · Der Baum, Austria
Five days to move,
slow down, and land.
Yoga & Trail Retreat
A yoga and trail retreat in the Austrian mountains. Five days of real movement, intentional stillness, and space that is genuinely hard to come by.
A yoga and trail retreat
that does both.
Our mission started with a simple idea: to elevate your mindful practice through unparalleled comfort and the purity of natural materials. Today, that vision lives through our European-made, sustainable yoga and meditation tools.
However, we know that while a great yoga prop can support your body, a new experience is what moves your soul. This is why we’ve teamed up with The Growth Club. Founded by Kimi and Neil—friends we met at a yoga festival in Austria back in 2021—this partnership is about more than just yoga mats; it’s about offering you the experiences you need to deepen your mindful practice and embrace personal growth. After a successful first edition in Costa Rica, now we are heading to Austria, to find inner peace in a hidden gem called ‘der Baum’ (meaning in German: ‘the tree’) surrounded by forests, hills & lakes.”
MOVE IN NATURE
Trail running, hiking, and functional movement in landscapes that remind your body what it was built for.
SLOW DOWN INTENTIONALLY
Daily yoga, meditation, and silence to calm the nervous system and sharpen awareness.
NERVOUS SYSTEM TOOLS
Practical techniques for regulation you can bring home. Not theory, applied, embodied, repeatable.
SMALL BY DESIGN
Limited participants. You won't be a number. Real conversations happen at the dinner table, on the trail.
NO PERFORMANCE
No running pace to hit. No advanced yoga required. Come exactly as you are. That is the whole point.
THE EXPERIENCE
A rhythm that
actually works.
Each day has a shape. This is an example of how it flows. The specifics change day to day depending on the group, the weather, and what the mountains offer. The balance between movement and stillness stays constant.
- Dawn
Barefoot forest walk
Silence. No phones. The day starts before words do. - Morning
Yoga with Neil or Kimi
Breath, mobility, and waking the body up with intention. - Mid-Day
Trail running or mountain hiking
Guided by Neil and Kimi, at a pace that works for the group. - Afternoon
Outdoor activities and exploration
Lake swimming, nature walks, time to breathe. No agenda. - Evening
Shared meals and guided reflection
Organic and vegan. Parts of some meals, brunch or dinner, are eaten in silence together.
WHAT STAYS WITH YOU
The things you
can’t Google.
“Some mornings we walk barefoot into the forest before sunrise. Nobody speaks. That silence isn’t empty. It’s the first moment in months where your body stops bracing for what’s next.”
✦
Silent meals together
Eating without talking changes something. Most people say it is the strangest and best part.

Barefoot dawn walks
Before the day starts. Before the thoughts start. Just ground under your feet.

Trail running your way
Not a race. Moving through mountains at whatever pace that takes, with Neil and Kimi beside you.

WHO THIS IS FOR
For people who want
both things at once.
You want to move your body and you want to slow down. You’re curious about what five days with real structure and real stillness might give you. You’re up for trying something that might feel unfamiliar.
- You love being outdoors but rarely slow down enough to actually feel it
- You’re curious about yoga or trail running but not a devotee of either
- You’re open to silence, discomfort, and being surprised by yourself
- You want to leave with practical tools, not just a good story
- You’re coming solo or with someone, and either way you’re ready to be present

An open-air grass meadow for morning practice. When the weather allows, we take it outside.
Fireplace
A dedicated fire pit for evenings. Weather permitting, we'll gather around a campfire. The kind of space where conversations happen without trying.

Pond
A natural pond in the grounds. Quiet, still, and there whenever you need a moment outside.
Yoga dome

MEET YOUR TEACHERS
Neil & Kim
Neil
Movement & Performance Coach
"Nutrition, movement, habit. Build the foundation right, and the rest follows. What happens on the mat, at the table, in your body, that's where it becomes real."
Neil brings a background in nutrition science, sport science, yoga, and habit change. His approach is rooted in one principle: consistency over intensity. He teaches from lived experience, not just a curriculum. Past participants describe him as uplifting, knowledgeable, and genuinely curious about the people in front of him. He's the kind of coach who'll remember what you said on Monday and check in on Wednesday.
Kimi
Yoga & Movement Teacher
"I've been moving since before I could explain why. What I've learned is that the body knows more than we give it credit for. I'm here to create the space for that."
Kimi brings a background in ballet, contemporary dance, and yoga, built up since childhood and deepened over years of practice. Her approach is holistic by nature: movement exploration, mobility, meditation, and relaxation woven into one. Trauma-informed by training, calm and understanding in the room. She teaches from where you are, not where you think you should be. Participants describe her as someone who makes you feel genuinely looked after from the moment you arrive.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
"You took such great care of us. I unexpectedly learned a lot about moving, yoga, and meditation. Things I didn't know I needed."
Retreat Participant
"Very good yoga lessons, very good people who listened to our personal opinion with openness. No rush. A fantastic way of healing your mind."
Retreat Participant
"Yoga at 6.30 is perfect for waking up. Good challenging activities, good healthy food, and Neil & Kimi are very friendly and helpful."
