SCULPT. STRETCH. SHINE: Iconic Wellness Awaits as SO/ Maldives and Anna Kanyuk Unite for World Wellness Weekend

This September, the Maldives’ most fashion-forward island escape, SO/ Maldives, invites guests to experience SCULPT. STRETCH. SHINE., a three-day wellness immersion curated in collaboration with international wellness muse and founder of Top Stretching, Anna Kanyuk. Set within the lush, cinematic surrounds of the Emboodhoo Lagoon, this exclusive journey is a celebration of movement, mindfulness, and modern beauty, effortlessly blending luxury and lifestyle for the contemporary traveler.
Spanning three idyllic days on a private island sanctuary, guests are invited to indulge in a transformative wellness experience where sculpted bodies, luminous skin, and elevated mindsets are crafted with meticulous detail. From sunrise rituals on floating decks to golden-hour sessions on silken sands, each moment is a vignette of inspired rejuvenation.
Each day of the retreat is intentionally designed to awaken both body and soul. Mornings begin with invigorating workouts on the ocean-facing yoga deck, from energizing full-body flows to posture enhancing core sessions and high-intensity cardio sculpting. As the sun rises over the turquoise horizon, movement becomes meditation, and energy begins to shift. Late mornings offer intimate wellness workshops in the resort’s serene Pavilion at Hadaba, ranging from Anna Kanyuk’s signature Facebuilding 101 to radiant skincare rituals and expert-led lifestyle talks focused on nutrition, motivation, and daily rituals of balance.
Evenings unfold at golden hour with gentle stretches on the powder-white sands of Lazuli Beach, weaving in breathwork, affirmations, and tranquil reflection as the Maldivian sun dips below the horizon.
This exclusive programme is not designed as a detox, but as a luxurious reawakening a conscious re-entry into your most radiant self. Whether sculpting your silhouette, revitalizing your skin, or recharging your mindset, each session is as aesthetically curated as it is soulfully intentional.

SO/ Maldives is a private-island fashion resort where avant-garde design meets untamed island freedom. Each villa is a private sanctuary, either floating above the crystal-clear lagoon or nestled among lush jungle palms, complete with minimalist architecture, private pools, and panoramic views. The island’s vibrant energy flows through Lazuli Beach Club, where Mediterranean flair meets Maldivian cool, and into Hadaba, the resort’s signature dining destination inspired by Middle Eastern elegance.
From its fashion-infused identity to its bold, wellness-forward philosophy, SO/ Maldives is redefining the luxury escape for the modern aesthete. Here, movement meets mood, rituals meet rhythm, and every moment is curated in style.
SCULPT. STRETCH. SHINE. is an invitation to reimagine your wellness journey not in a studio, but on a private island in the Indian Ocean. Limited spaces are available for this intimate retreat, where luxury meets self-love, and transformation is both tangible and exquisitely photogenic.
