Join Monique Darling and Peter Petersen aboard a luxurious Xpand yacht for a week of presence, embodiment, and connection along Croatia’s breathtaking Adriatic coast. Sailing from Dubrovnik to Split, you’ll practice in a new stunning location each day — hidden bays, intimate island ports, warm calm water, and unforgettable sunsets over the sea.
This is an intimate, adults-only journey for those ready to go deep — internally and in community. Days begin with gentle movement and unwind with evening sessions on the upper deck, plus soulful temple nights under the stars with the open sea as your sanctuary. The Adriatic here is calm and waveless, warm and impossibly clear — a rare, safe container to relax, open, and be fully present.
Begin each day grounded and present with gentle movement led by Peter Petersen on the open deck.
Guided practices to quiet the mind, open the heart, and drop into deeper awareness.
Free, expressive movement to release, energize, and reconnect with your body.
Conscious connection games and rituals that build trust and intimacy within the community.
Sacred evening gatherings on the upper deck, with the open Adriatic as your sanctuary.
