Acro FlowArt Retreats
We Are AcroFunkers
AcroFunkers (Zagreb) is a duo guided by a common purpose: to enjoy and have fun promoting acro yoga and a variety of skills, linking them together in an innovative way. Acro yoga is an art that combines yoga, acrobatics and therapeutic skills in a unique way, and it is also a dynamic, fun and interactive form of exercise, which deepens the trust and communication between the two (or more) people.
We gathered in 2012, having met in training, and we soon decided to combine our skills through a performance form. At our shows, you can see a blend of acro yoga, acrobalance, juggling with fire (poi, stuff, snakes), acrobatics and dance on silk. We have a lot of positive experience in performing (in clubs, street performances, theatre, festivals, and even a circus tent).
One of us has a certificate in thai massage, and in 2015 we both finished a yoga teacher training (RYS200).
In the past years we participated in various educational workshops through which we shaped our skills on different performative fields such as acro yoga, acro yoga Montreal, acrobalance, H2H, trio figures, acrobatic dance, clown theatre etc.

From an idea to retreats
Wanting to offer something more than indoor classes, we have started organizing acro yoga retreats in 2016. Inspired by nature, we picked Velebit mountain and the city of Rovinj to host our first retreats. After the break caused by the pandemics, in 2022 we decided to continue growing our retreats program and came up with a name: Acro FlowArts Retreats.
Mission
Our retreats will always be offering daily classes of yoga, acro yoga, acrobalance and restorative classes making sure you go home with new skills and knowledge.
We are choosing spacious and cozy venues close to the nature for our accommodation and workshops, picking local attractions and activities to give your free time the authentic vibe, making sure to serve well balanced vegetarian meals and to offer you enough free time and extracurricular activities for you to decide how your perfect acro vacation looks like.
Vision
We want Acro FlowArt Retreats to became a synonym for acrobatic vacations and getaways in Europe and offering a meeting platform for acrobats and circus artists from all over the world.
