Ice and Yoga Retreats

We curate holistic, human-centred experiences.
🧊🌲The Baltic Experience Retreat
3-8 & 10-15 March 26
Curated by @eggernives

Good retreats don’t happen by coincidence.
And neither does good food.When your retreat space is surrounded by forest and the nearest store is far away, planning becomes part of the craft. Preparation matters. Timing matters. And sometimes improvisation becomes part of the art.For us at Ice & Yoga, gastronomy is not an extra. It’s a vital part of the experience.After ice. After sauna. After movement.
The body needs nourishment that truly supports recovery and energy. And yes, we believe in spoiling our guests from head to toe.For the upcoming Baltic Experience Retreat, out talented swiss chef Corinne @corinnevenegas will bring years of experience, intuition and depth to the table. Expect the perfect mix of traditional Lithuanian and modern vegan-vegetarian dishes, and food that fuels cold exposure, movement and rest in equal measure.March 3-8 & 10–15.
A few places remain.If you feel called, apply now and join us in Lithuania. Link in bio.
Last weekend in St. Moritz.Blue sky. Winter sun. Frozen lake.
And a group willing to step into the cold together.The energy of this workshop was special. Focused and light. Grounded and open. From the first breaths on the mat to the shared silence before entering the ice.Yoga to prepare the body and breathing to calm the mind led by @movewithjojo
Followed by ice bath guidance from @eggernivesWhat stays after experiences like this is not only the memory of the dip into the cold, but the clarity, the support within the group, and the feeling of pride that follows.Thank you to everyone who showed up with openness and courage.Join us and experience it for yourself.Next chance:

Last weekend’s Yoga & Ice Bath Workshop in St. Moritz was amazing.The recipe for an invigorating ice bath is focus, and a calm breath.
That quiet confidence that comes from meeting discomfort directly, without force.Ice baths are not about pushing limits or proving something. It’s about learning to stay with yourself, under pressure. First in the cold, then also in life.Cold exposure paired with movement and breath creates a space where the body leads and the mind follows. No coaching talk. No performance. Just experience.If this speaks to you, the Baltic Experience Retreat in Lithuania is built on the same principles: Nature, cold, movement, and simplicity.
A small group. Clear structure. Space to reset. There’s still a few spots left. ❄️
Lithuania is not an obvious choice.
And that‘s exactly why you should visit.
The Baltic Experience Retreat takes place in a quiet part of Lithuania surrounded by forest, water and space.Everything is designed to feel simple and supported: Clear structure, nourishing food, traditional sauna, guided ice baths, daily movement and time outside.No pressure to share.
No performance.
Just an environment that allows clarity to emerge naturally.Transport from Vilnius is included.
The currency is Euro. The land is magnificent. The country is safe, calm and easy to navigate.March 10-15
Only a few spots remaining.If you feel drawn to something a little different this is your moment.Apply via the link in bio.
A retreat for men who don’t want to perform, explain, or fix themselves.
Just unplug.From March 10–15, we gather in the Baltic forest for a small, calm retreat where the body leads and clarity follows.
No coaching circles. No forced sharing. No social pressure.Cold exposure, movement, sauna and time in nature create the conditions for regulation and focus.You’ll stay on a private 3-hectare property, deep in Labanoras Forest, with direct lake access.
A simple, cosy house with a fireplace, a forest yoga shala, and a sauna by the lake.
Quiet mornings. Grounded practices. Space to reset your system.Nourishing, recovery-focused meals are prepared on site by our own chef, so you can fully rest and recharge.March 10–15, 2026
Small group, respectful atmosphere
Only 3–4 spots leftApply now. Limited places available.
Behind every retreat is a team.Hosting with care takes more than a vision.
It takes trust, experience, and people who know their craft.In this chapter of our new series, you meet the women who brought our first retreat in Lithuania to life.
Nives as host, holding the vision and guests.
Fabienne guiding yoga with clarity and presence.
Nina creating food that nourished far beyond the plate.Alongside them, Inga holding the sauna rituals and Greta guiding the ice, each bringing depth, professionalism, and calm to the experience.Different personalities. Different disciplines.
One shared intention.You can feel the harmony in how they work together, grounded, attentive, and deeply committed to creating a space where guests feel cared for from start to finish.This retreat is shaped by women who lead with skill, responsibility, and genuine love for what they do.
And that energy became part of everything.Join us this March 2026 and experience the magic. Link and details in bio.
What happens when different worlds come together?At Ice & Yoga, we bring experts from yoga, breathwork, cold exposure, sauna culture and gastronomy into one shared space.
Not to do more, but to go deeper and create unique experiences.We choose locations that are off the usual map. Places that invite presence, slowness, and connection, with nature, with others, and with yourself.This is the beginning of a short documentary series, where we share the philosophy behind our retreats and the people who shape them.Follow for more… 🩵
In this village, life moves more slowly. Our first Winter Hideaway Retreat in Val Müstair has come to a close, shaped by stillness, warmth, and new friendships.We slept in one of the oldest hotels in Switzerland, where history, simplicity, and attentive service invited us to truly slow down.At Ice and Yoga, we prioritise unique locations, thoughtful hospitality, and carefully curated programmes that come together to create unforgettable retreat experiences. Our days unfolded through yoga & meditation, breath, and sound, while candlelight walks through the dark led us to the yoga shala.Held by the valley and its winter landscapes, we embraced the contrast of warmth and cold, including sauna sessions and moments in the icy river that awakened body and mind.Between tradition, nature, and shared silence, connections formed effortlessly, leaving us grounded, open, and deeply nourished.Thank you to everyone who made this Retreat unforgettable.
We are grateful for the moments together that created memories for a long time. ❄️🩵
Our hearts are full, our bodies relaxed, our minds calm: After the most magical start into 2026 with our first ever Winter Hideaway Retreat in Val Müstair.We couldn‘t have wished for a better group of beautiful people.
The delicious food, prepared with the best ingredients out of the valley and made with attention to detail and love by the talented chef Oliver. The unique experience of staying at historic Chasa Chalavaina @chasa.chalavaina , run by the wonderful Isolde, and the mesmerising landscapes made this retreat incredibly special.Enjoy impressions of the retreat: From daily yoga, ice baths, sauna, visiting Tessanda, the oldest still active hand-weaving mill in Switzerland, to a guided hike by a local to experience the magic of the valley.Thank you to everyone who made this retreat unforgettable. 🤍
Some of the most meaningful connections don’t happen in workshops or on the mat.
They happen around the table.Sharing nourishing food, unhurried conversations, laughter, and quiet moments in between.
A space where you can arrive as you are, be yourself, and feel at home, even among people you’ve just met.At the retreat, community forms naturally.
With presence, good food, and shared moments.We can’t wait for Corinne @corinnevenegas to spoil us throughout the retreat with her deliciously unique creations.Are you joining us?

Our first “Schoggi Chränzli” was a warm and soulful beginning to the Advent season. An afternoon where community, hot chocolate, and slow enjoyment came together.In collaboration with Garçoa Chocolate, we served rich hot chocolate, led a cacao tasting session and organised a lovely gathering complete with homemade sweet treats, meaningful connections and a relaxed atmosphere.We were also delighted to present a small exhibition showcasing our very first Ice & Yoga retreat in Lithuania, giving everyone a glimpse into the atmosphere, memories, and magic of that special experience.Thank you to everyone who joined us! Your presence, conversations, and openness are what make Ice & Yoga more than just an event.And a heartfelt thank-you to our wonderful collaborators for making our first Schoggi Chränzli such a success: Jana @comealive.ch , Chiara @chiarajessicacreates , Drilon @bakes.bydri , Larissa @bonana.ch , Fränzi @garcoachocolate , @merakitravel.ch, Fabienne @fabienneschwab.yoga , Anja, Fortesa @frtsbrsh , Larissa @larissa.maddy and others.Thank you @yoga.nina and @thesoulspace.ch Thank you very much for letting us hold this event in your beautiful studio.
Meet Nives — the founder and heart behind Ice & Yoga.For our new community members, this is the woman who turned an idea into unforgettable retreats and meaningful moments shared in cold lakes, warm saunas, and open-hearted spaces.With a background in hospitality and event management, Nives brings a rare blend of precision, presence, and genuine care. For her, service is not a detail, it’s the foundation. Every retreat, every workshop, every breath and every plunge is crafted so you feel held, supported, and seen.She’s a lover of yoga and the cold, but never the one to tell you how long to stay or how it should look. Her approach is simple: meet the challenge with softness, find that sweet spot of ease within effort, and let the experience show you what you’re capable of.Effort and ease: Not as a slogan, but as a way of meeting life.Nives is a woman who had a vision and the courage to follow it. And Ice & Yoga is the space born from that courage.We cannot wait for the upcoming retreats, and Nives is always the busy bee preparing and organizing every little detail, so you can enjoy a unique experience and meet yourself deeper than before.

The Lithuanian sauna ritual „Pirtis“ is one of the most ancient and sacred traditions. Rooted in nature, it’s a practice of purification, connection, and renewal.Led by our Lithuanian sauna master Inga, this ritual is a highlight of the Baltic Experience Retreat in March 2026. Using birch branches (vanta), wild herbs, steam, honey, she guides you through a deeply sensory journey that supports circulation, detoxification, and relaxation — a space to soften, release, and return to balance.For centuries, people have gathered in the sauna to share stories, wisdom, and laughter. Once a sacred space for women, Pirtis today welcomes everyone: Men and women alike, to reconnect with nature, community, and self.Join us in Lithuania to experience Pirtis, to breathe, and to be part of something ancient yet alive.Learn more or book your spot via link in bio.#iceandyoga #saunaritual #saunamaster #traditionalsauna #retreat #lithuania #wellness
Step inside the timeless charm of our retreat home in the mountains: Hotel Chasa Chalavaina in Val Müstair. First mentioned as an Inn in 1254, this lovingly restored gem carries centuries of history while offering the warm comfort and functionality we seek for our Winter Hideaway Retreat.After its careful renovation in 2022, the hotel beautifully balances heritage and simplicity. Inside, antique details meet modern craftsmanship, hand-woven textiles from the local Tessanda Handweberei @tessanda.handweberei.muestair , and regional materials that root you in the spirit of the valley. The kitchen works exclusively with local produce: Grains, butter, cheese, and herbs sourced from the surrounding fields and monastery farms, celebrating a deep connection to nature and community.This is why we chose it as the home for our Winter Hideaway: a place where mountain silence meets grounding rituals, where the open fire, the scent of local wood, and the rhythm of the valley create the perfect setting for rest, reflection, and renewal.
Here, we flow through yoga and meditation, awaken the body in the ice bath, and relax again in the warmth of the sauna, surrounded by nature’s quiet power.And then there’s Isolde: The heart of Chasa Chalavaina. With her warmth, professionalism, and effortless charm, she brings the house to life. Her care and attention to detail make every stay feel personal, genuine, and deeply welcoming. It’s her hospitality that makes this historic place feel like home.#iceandyoga #valmüstair #valmüstairbiosfera #retreat #historichotel #craftsmanship #icebath #sauna #yoga #mindfulness

Make your ice bath routine easier and more comfortable!After many years of ice bathing and cold plunges, I have recognised some simple but important needs.1) A quick and easy way to get in and out of swimwear.
2) A way to dry off quickly.
3) Protection from the wind and curious looks.
4) Enough freedom of movement to do gentle exercises to warm up before getting dressed again.Our poncho combines all of these features – it’s practical, warm and easy to use.I hope you love them as much as I do.

During her wanderings through the woods and sunlit meadows, Corinne always seems to find a small treasure. Depending on the season, her hands return filled with surprises: tender leaves in spring, golden blossom in summer and blushing berries in autumn.
Every now and then, she offers me something: „Try this“, she says, handing me a flower or leaf, which I happily pop into my mouth.
Corinne is a culinary artist. Fermented, preserved, and transformed into nourishing meals that taste like the season itself and make you appreciate every bite you take.
To give you an idea of her creations, there’s honey ice cream with magnolia caramel and yoghurt foam, or fried onion flowers with pea purée, sorrel oil and wild herb bouquets.#iceandyoga #retreats #culinaryarts #chef #culinaryexperience #fermented #preservedfood
Imagine this: You start your retreat morning with a stretch and meditation guided by Fabienne. Her gentle and intentional yoga flows are always themed, always with meaning.She’s been part of Ice & Yoga since the beginning, and her presence has shaped the rhythm of our retreats. She regularly offers sound baths alongside yoga. For our Lithuanian retreats we are currently still looking for the right instruments, but we are excited to have soundbaths part of our retreats soon too.Fabienne is not only a certified RYT-500 teacher with over 750 hours of training—she’s also Nives’ best friend. The two bring so much joy and create an experience you’ll never forget.Whether you’ve never done yoga before or have practiced for years, you are welcome as you are. Because it’s not about doing more, but about being more of who you are.We look forward to meet you at The Baltic Experience retreat.

You’ve already met Corinne, our MasterChef Switzerland 2023 winner and retreat chef — now it’s time to share what she’s been dreaming up for our next retreat.Think vibrant, seasonal soul food.
Locally inspired flavours.
Plates that nourish, connect, and ground you between yoga, sauna rituals, and cold plunges.In autumn 2025, Corinne will take her creativity and skills even further with an internship at Stefan Wiesner’s MYSTERION diving into the world of wild flavours. Until then, her focus is on crafting a menu that feels as much a part of the retreat as the yoga or the ice bath — because at Ice & Yoga, food isn’t just a meal.
It’s a pillar.#iceandyoga #retreats #soulfood #stefanwiesner #wildflavors #food #nourishment
A place where the mountains hold silence…
Far in the east of Switzerland, on the border to Italy, lies a valley few have truly explored.
Val Müstair — wild, quiet, and alive with alpine air.Our new retreat location rests in the heart of it all: a 770-year-old house facing the UNESCO World Heritage Monastery of St. Johann, surrounded by meadows, forests, and peaks.
Here, time slows. The air feels different. Nature invites you deeper.It’s a journey to get here — and that’s exactly the point.
Because sometimes, the distance is what makes the arrival unforgettable.More soon…#ValMüstair #IceAndYogaRetreat #BiosferaValMüstair #RetreatSwitzerland #NatureRetreat #YogaRetreatSwitzerland
Morning light pouring into the forest yoga space.
A quiet room, slowly waking with breath and movement.
⁠
At our retreat in Lithuania, this was how each day began — not with intensity, but with presence.
Yoga here follows the same principle as the cold:
effort & ease.
⁠
Strength held with softness.
Focus grounded in breath.
⁠
This space — surrounded by trees, touched by snow — holds something special.
We’ll be back.

Before stepping into the cold river, Jojo plays the flute.
The forest is quiet. Behind us the flowing river.
We breathe together. A beautiful soundbath in nature.
⁠
These are the moments that shape Ice & Yoga — not just the ice itself, but the way we arrive in it: calm, supported, connected.

Nature regulates. Even when we do nothing.In Ice & Yoga, nature isn’t just the background — it’s the teacher.
⁠
The forest holds the nervous system like no studio ever could.
The water reflects back what’s real.
The ground regulates, quietly.
⁠
This is why we keep returning to places where nature is wild, alive, and untouched.
⁠
Like the mountains of Switzerland.
Like Lithuania.
Where our retreats are rooted in the forest.
Where every plunge, every breath, every silence is held by trees that have stood for centuries.
⁠
A return to where your body knows how to rest.
Ready to experience it?#iceandyoga #coldplunge #sauna #yoga #nature #mindfulness #lithuania #retreat #natureretreat
You never go in alone.
⁠
In every Ice & Yoga session, you’re guided step by step — with presence, with breath, with calm.
⁠
Nives holds the space with deep care. She meets you where you are, so you can meet the cold with softness.
⁠
Because cold plunging isn’t about pushing through. It’s about finding ease inside the effort.
⁠
And when the lake or river is this clear, the mountains this still, and the air this alive — the whole experience shifts.
⁠
A moment of magic.
A practice of presence.
⁠
Held by nature. Held by us.#iceandyoga #coldplunge #mindfulness #community #switzerland #coldplungetherapy

Cold plunging at 10–15°C 💧More and more voices – from both science and experience – are pointing to this:
You don’t need freezing water to enjoy the benefits of cold immersion.
For many women, water at this temperature might be just right: not extreme, yet still highly effective for the body and mind.Studies and personal reports suggest that ‘warmer cold’ plunges could support:
- Mood regulation
- menstrual and menopausal symptoms
- Stress relief and circulationPerhaps that’s a good reason to give it a try: gently ease in and see how you feel.Note: the research is still in its early stages. But we’re curious to see where it leads. Until then: Listen to your body and find your own sweet spot with the cold.#coldplunge #coldtherapy #gentlecold #10to15degrees #womenandcold #nervoussystemreset #hormonehealth #curiousaboutcold
Ice & Yoga is for the ones who want to feel — alive & fully present.Here in the frozen waters of St. Moritz, we closed off the winter season with one last deep breath.As the snow melts, we’re shifting to mountain lake plunges — wild, remote, and just as powerful. Combining the plunge with breathtaking hikes in Switzerland.
The season continues. Just a little differently.Are you ready? 🧊🏔️#iceandyoga #stmoritz #icebath #hikingseason #switzerland #mountainlake

Nives

Eventmanager and Founder of Ice and Yoga Retreats

I have always loved the feeling after a good yoga session and the invigorating sensation of a dip in icy water. These experiences bring me immense joy and satisfaction.

My journey began with a degree in Hotel Management in Lucerne, Switzerland. For many years, I worked as an event manager, organizing a wide range of events and attending many retreats myself.

This year, I also started as a "safe-space" holder at Keen Wellbeing, where I help participants get into the ice bath. Combining my personal passions with my professional expertise, I am dedicated to creating unforgettable retreats.

Using my background in hospitality and event management, I design experiences that leave participants feeling recharged and inspired.

It gives me great joy to see people happy and fulfilled, whether it's after an invigorating ice bath or a delicious meal.
I can't wait to meet you! Love, Nives

My cooking is inspired by nature, characterised by curiosity and driven by a deep love of detail. I love cooking over an open fire and experimenting with different ingredients.

In autumn 2025, I will be immersing myself further in the world of wild flavours with an internship at Stefan Wiesner's restaurant in Entlebuch.
