Restore, Renew, Replenish Women’s Retreat*

Puglia, Italy

6th-13th July, 2024

Join me for a week of restoring and replenishing mind and body in beautiful Puglia. La Rosa dei 4 Venti, our home for the week, offers an exquisite converted 16th century farmhouse settled in a valley which boasts vistas replete with olive trees and vineyards for you to explore. The experienced chefs at La Rosa will provide us with nourishing and delicious meals made from the freshest local ingredients (genuinely some of the best food I have ever had!).

Each day will begin with a meditation practice, appropriate for any level – even if meditation is brand new to you. We will flow through a movement class in the earlier part of the day and delve deeper into specific topics, including luxurious restorative yoga sessions, in late afternoon workshops. The flow classes will be creative, relaxing, fun, and sequenced throughout the week in such a way to help you progress in your practice, wherever you may be starting from. The middle portion of the day is yours to relax in the sun by the pool, seek a shady corner with a book, explore charming villages, such as nearby Martina Franca, or wander the gardens by foot. Multiple styles of massage are available upon request for those wanting a bit of pampering. 

On Wednesday, we will have an optional group day trip to explore the beauty of Puglia, take a dip in the sea, indulge in some exquisite gelato, and gain a greater appreciation for this incredible corner of the world.

This retreat is open to experienced and newer yogis alike, however it is advised that participants have had some introductory yoga experience. If you're at all in doubt, please do get in touch!
