Marie is a highly qualified holistic yoga therapist with over 500 hours of training and 13 years of teaching practice running back-to-back weekly retreat events who is able to adapt to and challenge varying levels of experience.
Stipe (Steve) is Suncokret's Co-Founder, Head Chef, and Island Host.

Tanja is a traveling international yoga teacher with a background in the fitness and wellness industry. She completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Ashtanga Vinyasa & Yin Yoga studies at "Bend it Like Buddha Yoga Algarve" in Portugal; and her Advance Yoga Teacher Training in Hatha Yoga at "Yoga Skyros Academy" in Athens, Greece. After experiencing a personal evolution through her yoga practice, she believes that the heart is the most powerful element in the human body and she invites her students to take a journey into the heart-opening practice of yoga.
Certified Yoga, Meditation, and Flow Dance Meditation Instructor Bethany started practicing yoga nearly 7 years ago when she had just had a baby and needed something to feel restored after sleepless nights. But it was when she began to experience a difficult time in her life through loss and trauma that the true benefits of yoga really shone through. Yoga became a channel to connect to herself, to come home to her body, and to set herself free. She knew then that she needed to share this healing technology with others and this is when she enrolled in a yoga teacher training course in 2019.
A Certified +500h Hatha and Ashtanga Advanced Yoga Teacher Marija is an experienced senior teacher from IndeaYoga in Mysore, India, trained under the guidance of Yogacharya Bharat Shetty. She teaches Mysore Style classes, Pranayama, beginner as well as advanced Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. Marija is partially based in her prestigious school in India, when she is not home in Macedonia and Serbia. Marija devotes attention to not only designing a personalized practice that encourages overall health and prevention of disease but also considers the safest approach towards it.
Certified Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Ever since her first Vinyasa yoga class, yoga has fascinated her with its unique blend of breath and movement. It doesn't matter whether she wants to relax or needs more energy, she feels completely in good hands when she practices. Yoga is now an integral part of her life and is always an exciting path to her center, which gives her strength and peace at the same time. As a yoga teacher, Mona aims to accompany her students to be loving and careful with themselves and to get to know and expand their own limits again and again.
Martyna Szczabel is a Certified 500-hour Hatha and Ashtanga Advanced Yoga Teacher and a Yoga Therapist in training. A profound belief in the therapeutic powers of yoga drives her practice. Her journey has been marked by continual learning and growth. In her teaching, Martyna emphasizes that yoga is more than physical exercise. While she pays significant attention to alignment on a physical level, her classes also include meditation, mantra chanting, philosophy, and pranayama to harmonize the body, mind, and spirit. Martyna’s classes are open to all levels, genders, and beings.

"Beautiful experience in a beautiful place! :)"
This is such a beautiful and homely place to be! 🤗I'm so grateful for the experience. The morning yoga was revitalising and the meditation and journaling before bed was a nourishing and meaningful chance to connect with ourselves and our group.
The accommodation is homely and I loved the little walking tours of the area to learn about the plants nearby. Also loved seeing the animals so happy.
Our hosts Evening and Stipe were wonderful and we had everything we needed. Evening was responsive and understanding of something I had been upset about and she kindly helped me through a reiki treatment! Which I loved. This is an additional optional extra which I thoroughly recommend!

"A truly magical place"
I was in need of doing something for myself to regain balance, and was drawn to Suncokrets energy while doing research. I am so happy that I went there. The location of the retreat is very cosy and authentic, and holds a special energy. The island of Hvar is beautiful, with amazing beaches with crystal clear water, and its the perfect place if you need a break. The food prepped by Stipe is healthy and full of fresh produce. Evening Marie is a very powerful yoga teacher, and I am full of honor to have recieved her guidance. The yoga sessions and meditations were really special and is designed to help you reconnect to your heart and soul. It was hard to leave this place, but I left feeling more rooted than in a long time - and I am so grateful for this experience. I aim to be back in the future.
I would highly recommend coming here if you feel lost, tired, disconnected, or just want to treat yourself to a wonderful break. Bring an open heart and soul, and you will not be disappointed.
Thank you, namaste!

"Great retreat to recharge on the beautiful island Hvar"
The location is a charming house in a small village on the island Hvar. We had a wonderful retreat with very insightful Yoga classes with Marija. For me the personal guidance from Evening were the highlights of the week. It helped me to find a new perspective and ideas for my way forward. I am ever so grateful to have had such a experienced coach through this process. I also would like to thank the other ladies of the retreat. It was truly a delight to meet them all and I hope we will stay in touch.

"Two weeks vacation in just five days"
This five day custom made retreat was just what I needed. After a couple of days of sightseeing I arrived in this warm bath that Evening and Stipe so carefully provide. The accomodation was as idyllic as peaceful and gave the perfect retreat factor after yoga, meditation and the excursions. Evening is a born yoga teacher and Stipe (who worked as a chef) makes the best healthy breakfasts and dinners. They make sure you have everything you need and want. When I'm considering a yoga retreat in the future, I will definitely think about returning to Suncokret.

"Wonderful retreat week and great experience"
This was my first yoga retreat and I am so thankful I chose this one.
The accommodation is situated in a beautiful peaceful village. The room is very clean and lovingly furnished. Every meal was freshly prepared using local ingredients and was delicious.
Evening and Stipe have put a lot of effort into making us all feel comfortable and allowing us to get to know the area. Various activities were organized such as SUP, kayaking, olive oil tasting…
Every yoga class with Tanja was varied and adapted to our level. I was able to learn a lot and, above all, find my inner peace and serenity.
I am so grateful for this wonderful experience and I highly recommend it I wish I could have stayed longer. Thank you again.

"Wonderful retreat! I highly recommend "
Thank you so much Evening and Stipe for this wonderful and magic week. Yoga with Evening was an unique experience and I am very grateful for the holistic and deep practice in a small group of two. Stipe provided us with incredibly delicious Croation food. An amazing retreat that I highly recommend.

"Sunny and rejuvenating retreat"
Thank you Evening, Stipe and Tanja for a wonderful retreat under the sun☀️
The program was very versatile containing different yoga styles: vinyasa, hatha, kundalini, chakra, faceyoga. And we also had a chance to try this ”danceyoga” verve, which I liked a lot.
Daily outings to the beaches and villages nearby were really lovely and relaxing. It was great to see the surroundings and not to stay at the same place all the time.
The food was amazing, thank you Stipe! Thanks also to Coco, the ”yoga dog” providing us animal therapy. And of course to Gina, who lightened up our days with her cute bunnies. Namaste🙏

"The Perfect Retreat"
As a psychologist from the states, I was burnt out post COVID and desperately needing to recharge. We had yoga every morning at 8:30 (not too early!), brunch around 11, several hours each day to adventure at various locations on the island, wonderful dinners prepared by Stipe, and review of self-reflection exercises after dinner. Evening is so passionate about her work, and Stipe is an excellent chef! Evening helped me to develop my yoga practice, let go of past concerns that were no longer serving me, and develop a specific wellness plan for various aspects of my life going forward. I can’t say enough good things about this retreat! I wish all mental health professionals could take advantage of this fantastic opportunity :) As a result of the retreat, I feel like a better ME which translates into being a better wife, mother, friend, and psychologist.

"Excellent "
In liked everything! From the room to the yoga sessions to the company. This place was faultless as far as I was concerned.
I would highly recommend Suncrocket as a great balance between all the aspects that you would hope for in a retreat. From the mind and head space that the premises at Suncrocket allowed particularly, to Hvar Island and the day trips more generally. These combined allowed me to have a very focused, spiritual week that was absolutely in the moment and I am wholeheartedly greatful for this.
Thank you so much to our host Stipe & Evening and our instructor Anita. You were all great

"Excellent holistic retreat"
This retreat is unique. I really liked the combination of yoga practice, meditation and theory units with the exploration of the island. A perfect mix to transfer the experience of relaxation and holistic connection into your everyday thoughts and experiences. I take home a impressive trip to my spiritual self and many nice experiences on the beautiful island of Hvar.

The environment, the feeling of the place. The aim to share their place, love and know-how. I valued how they made sure we had the opportunity to see other parts of Hvar, how they took us places and brought us back.
