Guitar Retreat 17 to 19 of April 2026

A guitar retreat focused on medicine music and mantras

This retreat is a guided journey into your musical expression. Together, we explore where you are right now, what you truly want to create with music, and what might be holding you back.

Through singing circles, collaborative practice, and dedicated time to work on a song or piece, you’ll receive personal guidance and support. We’ll help you design a clear, step-by-step roadmap so you can continue growing after the retreat.

Alongside the music, you’ll experience meditation, yoga, breathwork, and sound healing — creating a space for connection, creativity, and inspiration, with nourishing, healthy meals throughout the day.

We’ll be held by the beautiful surroundings of Casa Prema Retreat — a peaceful sanctuary in nature. You can cool off in the natural pool, relax and connect by the water, or find quiet moments to meditate in the open fields or inside the dome. It’s a space that naturally invites you to slow down, recharge, and go deeper into your experience.

Greg with peace (Gergely Szabados)

is the founder of PlayMusicPeople! and the creator of "The Chords of Love" guitar courses, where he emphasizes a heart-centered approach to music. He has been playing guitar for 30 years, with the first 20 years spent playing in rock and electronic bands as a singer, songwriter, and guitarist. Over time, his focus shifted toward "music beyond performing art."

Greg now creates immersive, inclusive, and interactive musical experiences such as medicine song circles, kirtan, music meditation, sound journeys, music jams, and workshops, helping people build an intimate relationship with music and integrate music into their lives. He emphasizes that music is a skill anyone can learn, not just a talent for performers.

Facilitator

Renato Koch (Casa Prema host, Sound healing, Breathwork, Meditation, Yoga)

With over 25 years dedicated to the exploration of consciousness, Renato has immersed himself in the study and practice of meditation, energy healing, bioenergetic work, and ancient philosophies. His journey has been guided by a deep curiosity to understand the nature of existence and to embody awareness beyond the mind.

Over the years, this path naturally evolved into working with powerful transformational tools such as sound healing, Reiki, breathwork, and yoga. Through direct experience and integration, Renato developed a grounded and intuitive approach to facilitating inner transformation.

He is the founder of Casa Prema Retreat, a sacred space in nature created to support deep reconnection, healing, and awakening. His work invites others into profound states of presence, balance, and alignment with their true essence.
