Welcome to a transformative 5-night yoga retreat with Akna Collective co-founder, Ania Puciata. During our time together, you’ll be guided through movement, breathwork, meditation, and the ancient beauty of Jordan. We'll connect deeply through embodied flow, free movement, breathwork, mala bead making, sharing circles, and guided explorations, allowing the energy and frequencies you encounter to serve as your inner guide for healing, surrender, and letting go.

At Akna Collective, our retreats go beyond the physical practice of yoga. We invite our guests to embark on a journey of profound healing and self-discovery. If this resonates with you, trust that you were meant to read this, and join us for an intimate, nourishing experience in the heart of Jordan.

While the retreat offers deep introspection, it’s also filled with joy, playfulness, and adventure. Together, we’ll meditate in the vast desert of Wadi Rum, hike, and immerse ourselves in the local Berber culture. We’ll explore the awe-inspiring Petra, one of the world’s wonders, and end our journey with rest and rejuvenation at a private beach resort by the Red Sea, complete with snorkeling.

Are you ready to dive in?

Akna Collective retreats with Ania Puciata offer you the space to connect deeply with your true, most authentic self—a stripped-back version of your soul that emerges more empowered and confident. Together, we’ll embark on a journey of transformation, moving inward for personal growth while sharing meaningful experiences with a community of like-minded individuals.

Location

Our retreat takes place in two breathtaking locations. The first night will be spent at the Greening the Desert Project, just outside of Amman, with transportation provided from the airport. From the second night onward, we’ll be staying at the Bedouin Yoga Camp in the heart of Wadi Rum. Each day, we’ll practice yoga outdoors, surrounded by the stunning desert landscape, with access to the camp’s communal space for our sessions. Evenings will be spent dining under the warm November sky, while mornings greet you with the peaceful sounds and sweeping views of the desert.

FOOD

You'll enjoy two delicious, nourishing plant-based meals per full day—brunch and dinner—along with a light snack around 2pm to fuel your practice. Our menu is thoughtfully curated to be both satisfying and energizing, leaving you inspired to bring more vegetarian goodness into your life after the retreat.
