A week of yoga on Brač's waterfront
The Dalmatian Yoga Retreat brings Megan Bettis of Compass Yoga to Villa Mirca, a private beachfront villa in the seaside village of Mirca on Brač Island. Expect a shaded pergola terrace for morning practice, a private chef preparing fresh brunch overlooking the sea, and an easy island rhythm built around movement, good food and warm company.
Your week blends daily yoga with island life — a boat trip to Hvar, an olive oil tour and tasting, and a hike to the 16th-century Blaca Monastery — plus free time for the pool, direct beach access, sea kayaking or windsurfing. No experience is required; Megan's classes are built to meet every practitioner exactly where they are, whether you're joining solo, with a friend, or as a couple.

The people behind your retreat
Megan Bettis
Yoga Host · Founder, Compass Yoga · E-RYT 500 & RCYT, Yoga Alliance
Megan fell in love with travel the summer she was 13, on an exchange program in France — and has been chasing that same sense of discovery ever since. With over 20 years of experience teaching movement, a background in classical ballet, and an E-RYT 500 & RCYT certification through Yoga Alliance, she brings a refined understanding of the body and an intuitive approach to teaching that welcomes practitioners of every level.
In 2023 she founded Compass Yoga to close the gap between affordable and high-quality retreats — thoughtfully designed experiences without inflated price tags. Alongside her yoga training she has studied restorative practices and Ayurveda, and her retreats are built around intentional movement and genuine connection, open to every body, every background and every level.
