In the heart of Tuscany
Sat 25th - Thur 30th May 2024
Reconnect and enjoy the magic of yoga in Tuscan nature, a beautiful sanctuary near the town of Monte San Savino. Over the course of five nights and six days we’ll stay in a beautiful Tuscan farmhouse, practice in an open wooden yoga shala, eat the local produce, and swim in an infinity pool. We will be immersed in an olive grove surrounded by oak trees.
As with all my retreats, this is open to anyone. If you’re looking to dedicate time to yourself, your yoga practice and open to exploring, learning, and growing – this could be the one for you. You are welcome whatever your yoga experience, whether you come alone or with friends. You experience this special retreat with up to 10 other people.
Yoga, nature, peace, walks, connection, past, – does this sound very you? Carry on reading…

Daily vegetarian/vegan brunch, snacks and dinner — from the garden or locally sourced and cooked by the home chef at the Farmhouse – you won’t get hungry or be disappointed ✨

Freedom! Everything is optional and you’re encouraged to spend the time the way you wish to
Accommodation and retreat space
Set on a secluded hill amongst hectares of beautiful olive groves & organic garden and fields, we will be outside Monte San Savino. With the entire grounds to ourselves, this retreat will give us the perfect space to connect, delve, explore and just be with nature.
Each room is unique and beautiful, with an ensuite bathroom, bedding, towels and daily housekeeping. Double rooms can be arranged as two single beds, a double bed to share, or a private room.

The Yoga
This beautiful outdoor shala is a fully-equipped with mats, bolsters, blocks and blankets, and as you can see a couple of hammocks for post-practice relaxation!
We will start the day with an energetic practice (flow-like/vinyasa) and slow down for our evening practice (gentle and yin). These will include asana (posture/movement focused), pranayama (breathing techniques), and meditation – and if you know me well you know I love to weave in some yoga philosophy chat.
It’s important to me that you get the most you can from this experience, so I’m also very happy to take requests on what you’d like to practice or focus on.
My classes are designed so that everyone in the group will be able to join, whether new or experienced, it’s a practice for all to enjoy without the angst of having to do certain things or be a certain way. Do you!

Getting to Tuscany & logistics
Flights
Here are options for nearby airports…
Florence Amerigo Vespucci Airport
Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport
Pisa Galileo Galilei Airport
Rome Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci Airport
The recommendation is: fly into Florence! From there, if you want to go for the public transport option: take the Tram (you can easily buy the tickets on the spot) to Santa Maria Novella Train Station (the main train station in Florence) - 20 minutes approx.
The cost for a return flight is likely between £200 and £450.
More details with other routes can be shared once you get in touch. I imagine some of you will want to extend your trip and explore Florence, Bologna and other surrounding areas!
What’s not included
Flights and travel to and from the retreat (however there is complimentary escort to and from the nearby town on arrival and departure days)
Travel insurance – it is strongly advised that you have insurance before your departure
Alcohol – but you are welcome to enjoy a wine/beer in the evening as we wind down, and why not!
It goes without saying but any snacks/drinks/food you purchase outside is not covered in the cost of the retreat as well as massages or extra bits you choose to organise/book independently
