Kadermo Retreat

Kadermo Retreat Yoga retreat in Finland with Stefan Engstrom - Authorized Level II. Teaching Ashtanga Yoga, Yin Yoga, Pranayama Anatomy and Psychosynthesis.

Kadermo Ashtanga Yoga Retreat - Our beautiful island Kadermo is a place where you can spend your holiday and renew yourself. Here people come together from all over the world to practice yoga and conscious self development. During your spare time you can enjoy the beautiful surrounding nature. You can try swimming in the sea or even go canoeing. Indoors, you can enjoy a coffee in our coffee shop a

nd also relax in the sauna. In the summer season from June to August you can come to stay for a week, two weeks or as long as you like up to several months. You could also join us just for a weekend workshop. However, if possible, we recommend that you stay 2-3 weeks or longer in order for you to benefit the most from your experience. Of course, the longer you stay the more economical it is for you. During the rest of the year we arrange monthly weekend workshops. Also, longer retreats (5 days or longer) are held during Easter holidays, Christmas and other long holidays. Additionally, outside the summer period, there is teaching in Helsinki. Please contact me if you are interested. All levels are welcome. Also complete beginners!

Summer isn't over yet. 🌿 There is still plenty of summer left to experience the gentle magic of Kadermo island retreat.

August is one of the most beautiful times on the island. The sea is warm, the evenings start to get dark, and life settles into the gentle rhythm of retreat days. Morning practice in the shala, pranayama and meditation, walks beneath the ancient oak trees, a swim in the sea and evenings in the sauna.

If you have been thinking about joining a retreat this summer, there is five different retreats to join, you can also combine them together and stay a bit longer!

32 summers of Kadermo Retreat! 🌿

Earlier this month, Kadermo Yoga Retreat celebrated its 32nd anniversary.

For more than three decades, people have crossed the short boat journey to this small island to practise Ashtanga Yoga and to reconnect with themselves in a truly unique setting.

Kadermo is an island sanctuary surrounded by the sea, home to ancient oak trees, beautifully restored wooden buildings, and a rhythm of life that invites you to slow down.

Each retreat day is shaped by practice, pranayama, meditation, quiet moments in nature, swimming in the sea and evenings in the sauna.

This summer, our retreat weeks continue with different themes including Presence & Wholeness, Function & Form, Technical Classes and Yin Yoga, offering opportunities to explore different dimensions of practice while sharing the same foundation of Ashtanga Yoga.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of Kadermo's journey over these 32 years. Whether you visited once many years ago or return every summer, you are part of the story of this special place.

We look forward to welcoming many more practitioners in the summers to come.

Every retreat week at Kadermo has its own theme. 🌿

While the foundation of every retreat is a daily Ashtanga Yoga practice, each week also offers an opportunity to explore a different aspect of yoga, personal development, or other embodied practice.

Throughout the summer you can join retreats focusing on themes such as Psychosynthesis, Presence & Wholeness, Function & Form, Technical Classes, Yin Yoga, or open Q&A sessions that invite deeper understanding of the practice.

Alongside the asana practice, every retreat includes daily pranayama, breathing practices, meditation and quiet moments that support rest, presence and recovery.

Life on the island naturally slows down. Days are shaped by practice, walks beneath the ancient oak trees, swimming in the sea, and evenings in the sauna. It is a chance to step away from everyday life and reconnect with yourself in a peaceful and inspiring environment.

Next week, 19–24 July, Stefan Engström will guide a retreat exploring Psychosynthesis—an approach to personal growth that complements the yoga practice by supporting greater self-understanding, integration and inner balance.

You can join us for a weekend or a full retreat week. All levels, including complete beginners, are welcome.

Summer on Kadermo is now in full bloom. 🌿

The retreat season is well underway, and the island has settled into its familiar summer rhythm. Mornings begin in the shala, afternoons invite time for pranayama, the sea, quiet walks and conversations, and evenings end in the warmth of the sauna.

For more than 30 years, people from around the world have come to Kadermo to deepen their Ashtanga Yoga practice, reconnect with themselves, and spend time surrounded by nature.

You are welcome to join us for a weekend, a full week, or stay a little longer.

This week at Kadermo, we are exploring the theme Yoga of Presence & Wholeness with Stefan Engström.

Alongside daily Ashtanga Yoga asana and pranayama practice, participants are invited to explore how yoga can become more than a physical practice, a way of cultivating greater presence, awareness and wholeness in everyday life.

For more than 30 years, Stefan has guided students with warmth, depth and decades of dedicated experience. His teaching combines the traditional Ashtanga Yoga method with thoughtful inquiry, creating a space where practice can deepen both on and beyond the mat.

If you couldn't join us this week, there are still three opportunities to experience this retreat theme during the summer:

🌿10.–12.7. (Weekend)
Ashtanga, Pranayama & Introduction to Presence & Wholeness · Stefan Engström

Whether you are joining your first retreat or returning to Kadermo once again, you are warmly welcome to join us.

The Kadermo Summer Retreat Season is now underway. 🌿

Throughout the summer, people from around the world arrive on the island to step into a different rhythm for a while. Days begin with practice in the shala, unfold in nature, and end with the quiet beauty of Nordic summer evenings and sauna.

Some stay for a weekend, a week and some choose to stay longer.

For over 30 years, Kadermo has welcomed students seeking dedicated Ashtanga Yoga practice in a peaceful island setting, guided by experienced teachers and supported by a warm community.

Whether you are joining your first retreat or returning once again, we look forward to welcoming you this summer.

The Summer Retreat Period continues until the end of August, and you are warmly welcome to join us for a weekend, a week or a longer stay.

The Kadermo Summer Retreat Period begins in less than two weeks. 🌿

For over 30 years, people from around the world have travelled to this small island in the Finnish archipelago to practice Ashtanga Yoga, and to spend some time living at a different pace.

Ancient oak trees, sea air, beautifully restored wooden buildings, and days shaped entirely around the practice.

Morning asana. Afternoon pranayama. Sauna. Swimming. Good people. Rest.

This summer, the retreat period runs from 18 June until 28 August — a continuous flow of retreat weeks and weekends, each with its own teacher and theme.

You can join for a weekend, stay for a week, or combine several weeks into a longer stay. There is no fixed way. Some come for a short reset. Others let the island become home for a while.

Who comes to Kadermo?

Over the years, people of many ages and backgrounds have found their way here.

Some come to deepen their Ashtanga Yoga practice.
Some arrive after long periods of work and busy schedules, simply needing a different rhythm for a while.
Some join their very first retreat.
Others have been returning for years.

There are experienced practitioners and complete beginners.
People travelling alone and people arriving together.

What many share is a wish to spend some time in a place where the days become simpler and more grounded again.

Morning practice.
Nature.
Sauna.
Rest.
Good conversations and quiet moments in between.

The Kadermo Summer Retreat Period runs from June until the end of August, and you can join for a weekend, a week or a longer stay.

If this sounds like something your body and mind have been asking for, you are warmly welcome.
