Your Teachers + Guides
Shawn Shaw, Cote Shaw + Zafera Kambouris
All three of these seasoned and beloved teachers will be leading your retreat!
It’s a family affair! Shawn is Mum to Cote and Mum in law+love to Zef.
Zafera is first generation Greek from the island of Kalymnos! Zafera lived there as a small child and returns to the magical island once a year. Zafera + Cote lived on the island for 8 months and quickly established a yoga community. Zafera speaks greek and feels deeply connected to her culture. She finds joy in introducing people to Kalymnos because she sees it open their eyes to the slow, vibrant nature of life. She believes the island is genuinely spiritually connected.
Cote adapted to Kalymnian life quickly, and spent much of his time teaching yoga to the locals and the tourists. He also worked as a belaying instructor for the number one rock climber in Greece. Moving to the island and immersing himself in the climbing culture changed his outlook on life.
Shawn Shaw has been teaching for over 20 years, and has led yoga retreats all over the world. Kalymnos holds a special place in her heart, being the home and heritage of her granddaughter and Zef. Having visited Kalymnos twice she has fallen in love with the island that leaves you feeling closer to spirt!
