The Skyros Centre nestles at the edge of the village. Its courtyard, shaded by almond, fig and pomegranate trees, offers a panoramic view of the mountains and the sea. The courses, whether on novel writing, relationships or Greek cooking, focus on the development of the creative self.
People can choose three courses in the first week and, if they wish, another three in the second.
The early morning courses are designed to wake up body, mind and spirit, and the late morning ones offer the chance to dig deeper and more intensively into a chosen subject. The early evening courses always have an element of entertainment and fun. The Skyros Centre's community is small and intimate - up to fifty people. Life flows in and out between the Centre itself, the village, the beach and the island's beauty spots. Participants live independently in selected rooms, and can, thus, become integrated with village life.
