THIS RETREAT IS NOW POSTPONED!

In May 2020, I am very happy to host a 5-day Yoga retreat in Italy, in the magical Monferrato region, close to Milan, precisely at La Fortunata, a beautiful property immersed in nature, nestled in the Monferrato hills of Piedmont.

We will practise Yoga twice a day: asanas, pranayama, and meditation practices. Practitioners of all levels are welcome to join.

There will be some challenging Dharma Yoga and Vinyasa practices, but variations will be offered for students who are more new to the practice. It is the perfect opportunity to deepen your Yoga practice: make some progress in your asana practice but also delve into pranayama/breathing practices and meditation. The goal will be to promote a sense of wellbeing, to recharge but also to learn, reflect, discuss a bit of philosophy, but always in a playful environment, as those of you who know me are aware!

For your time off the mat, you will be able to relax and enjoy some stillness in nature or in the lounges and verandas of the property. If you wish to be active, you will be able to use the garden areas for running, cycling or walking; to play tennis or football, or use the gym. There is a swimming pool area, which we will be able to use to swim if the weather allows it, or to rest in the sun. There is also a steam room.

La Fortunata is minutes away from natural, historical and artistic treasures, so you will be able to visit the region, to enjoy the famous Piedmontese wines or even some good shopping deals as the house is just 11 kms away from the Serravalle Designer Outlet.
