Get in touch →Four ways in
The question is not whether we take small groups. It is which week is yours.
We build weeks around eight guests because at four an empty seat costs more than a third of what the week earns, and a group that size stops carrying itself. That is a reason, not a door policy. Below eight there is still a way in, and it is the first one here.
From one guest
Join a published departure
Dates already set, a programme already built, and other people at the table. Come alone, as a couple, or as a family of five. This is how we take everyone under eight, and it is what most guests would choose anyway.

Small groups, on application
Take a route that already exists
Six built journeys with no fixed date: Atlas bikes, a nomad trek, the roses, the Atlantic. You choose the route, we put your own people on it and build the dates around them.
You are here
Eight to twenty
Privatise a retreat, or start from a blank page
An existing Umnya week with nobody else on it, or a week that does not exist yet: your terrain, your rhythm, your reason for going. Written proposal within a week.

You already have the group
Bring the people who follow you
Studios, clinics, coaches, clubs and companies arrive with a community already formed. You bring the people and the teaching. We carry the ground: vehicles, permits, camps, food, guides, and the week itself.
How hosting works→
If you are not sure which of the four you are, say so in one line and we will tell you. It costs us an email and saves you a proposal built for the wrong week.
