Meet Bianka

Bianka Duka is a passionate Amsterdam based yoga guide dedicated to helping individuals embark on their journey inward through mindful movement, breathwork, and meditation. With deep influences from Hinduism, Buddhism, and other spiritual traditions, Bianka creates an inclusive and nurturing space where everyone can explore their inner selves and connect with others. Her teaching philosophy emphasizes “working in” rather than “working out,” encouraging students to cultivate self-awareness and inner peace.
Bianka is known for her thoughtful integration of narrative and storytelling in her sessions, drawing inspiration from the likes of Ram Dass to enrich the yoga experience. The retreat includes a ceremonial cacao celebration, where participants come together to honour their journey and embrace newfound connections. Bianka’s inclusive method ensures that every participant feels welcomed and empowered, fostering a supportive environment for personal growth and transformation.

All levels are welcome. Bianka ensures that each session is adaptable, creating an inclusive atmosphere where everyone can feel comfortable and supported. Breathwork – your vital force
Breathing is not an intellectual activity. It is something that is happening by itself. The way we breathe is the way we live. And the way we live is the way we breathe. By regulating your breath you will be able to calm the ever-noisy and wavering mind and be here and now. Because at the end of the day all you have is this inhale and this exhale. Explore Asana, a state of unity
The human body is the highest expression of consciousness. You are an embodied spirit and an ensouled body. The ego is constantly separating, comparing, and chasing to get somewhere rather than celebrating where you are right now. Unite the body, mind, and consciousness and let the wisdom of your being bring more ease, vitality, and alignment to your life. Find harmony with the outer world within, through a dance between controlling and letting go. Enjoy a cacao ceremony
A time to open your heart and mind to the deep inner peace and wisdom that lies within. The invitation is to come as you are and just be. There will be sharing, movement, relaxation, and contemplation. It is a moment to relax, release and experience the freedom of letting go. In other words, a ceremony of freedom and inner peace. Throughout the retreat, Bianka’s teachings will be framed by narratives and themes that provide a cohesive and reflective experience, drawing on her rich spiritual influences to create a holistic and enriching journey.
