A truly authentic Italian experience in the heart of Tuscany 🌱💚🌱
Spend 5 days experiencing daily yoga practices, meditation, emotions, healing thai yoga massage, local vegetarian cuisine, nature, culture and more!
The retreat will be held at an 800 year old classic Tuscan farmhouse converted into a stylish yoga retreat, the ambience offering a one-of-a-kind experience. The large farmhouse has spacious airy rooms, a magical shala to practice (mats/props included) and it’s the perfect place for walking and exploring or staying peaceful and still. This gorgeously refurbished rustic farmhouse is an amazing place surrounded by forest, located in the breathtaking countryside of Tuscany (Italy) - it is only 60 km. from Florence, 25 km. from Siena and a 20 min walk from Monteriggioni, a little medieval jewel. You will be captivated by the undulating hills swept with thriving vineyards, orchards, olive trees and enchanting evergreen forest.
✅ Be ready! To breathe deeply, feel, open, connect, twist, invert, stretch, rejuvenate and restore during the yoga classes.
✅ Be ready! To work with chakra energy, spiritual energy and the energies of love, support and freedom during the healing thai classes.
