About this Retreat
Your Guides
Alexander Katerinko (Alex) is a certified Shaolin qigong and (RYT 500) instructor, and sound therapist with over 10 years of experience. He is the founder of Meditation Hub Studio in Cyprus and the creator of the Synergia Method β a holistic system that integrates breath, movement, and sound for deep transformation and inner alignment.
Story:
For most of his conscious life Alex worked in a hazardous environment at a major international oil company, rapidly climbing the career ladder. However, in 2016 he experienced a transformation, after which he decided to leave the career as a top manager and dedicate himself to spiritual growth.
Path to Self: Initially, Alex attempted self-development in several areas at once: cooking, enology, Latin dances, learning foreign languages, music, freediving, yoga, qigong.
Gradually, practicing qigong and yoga became a part of his new life, and then he decided to travel the world to study various Eastern practices
Integration of Old Oriental Traditions:
Over time, it became clear to Alex that despite many contradictions, all ancient Eastern philosophical teachings and physical practices have many common principles. As a result of the unification of such principles, the Synergy was born. An important element of this system is the principle of reverse biological feedback, or somopsychics β where through certain physical practices we affect our psyche, allowing us to quickly relieve stress, achieve harmony, and increase the energy level of the body.
My mission:
To travel, spread knowledge, help people!
Invitation to Transformation:
I invite everyone to join me in exciting transformational journeys to various corners of our amazing Planet. Let's open the doors to a new state of happiness and harmony together!
Details of this retreat
Join us on the sun-kissed island of Cyprus for a 5-day immersive retreat designed to reset your body, mind, and nervous system. Surrounded by Mediterranean beauty and silence, this program combines ancient wisdom and modern wellness practices to help you reconnect with your essence.
Each day begins with revitalizing morning sessions rooted in yoga, qigong, breathwork, and neuro-gymnastics β a biohacking practice that stimulates new neural pathways through mindful movement, guided meditations. Evenings culminate in serene sunset meditations and moments of integration.
Between sessions, explore Cyprus like a local β from secret beaches to panoramic mountain trails and charming stone-built villages. Optional excursions include visits to family-owned wineries and nature hikes to the islandβs hidden gems.
Evenings at the villa are a sensory delight. You'll enjoy cooking classes in modern Mediterranean cuisine as part of the "Simpler is Better" culinary project β where taste, health, and creativity meet.
This is more than a retreat β itβs a reset for your entire system.

I highly recommend this course. As someone drawn to sound meditation and hoping to become a practitioner, Alex provided exactly the foundation I needed. His instrument collection is incredible, and we had lots of hands-on practice with gongs, singing bowls, and many other instruments. The balance between theory, practice, and morning movement (yoga, qigong) was perfect. There was also enough of time to relax, enjoy my own space, and really integrate everything I was learning. The food was fresh, healthy, and veggie-friendly - Alex is a fantastic cook. The accommodation was cozy, and the whole space felt calm and welcoming. I got everything I was looking for and more! Thank you Alex for the wonderful experience.

One of the most unforgettable retreats I've ever experienced!
This journey became a true and profound reset for me. The location was simply perfect β stunningly beautiful and far removed from the noise of everyday life. I'm deeply grateful for the breathwork practices β they helped me reconnect with myself and stay fully present in each moment of the journey. The sound meditations gifted me a silence so deep that my thoughts melted away, allowing me to immerse myself completely in the now. A unique experience that brought back my sense of peace and harmony.
