The Movement Approach & Yoga

HOLISTIC MOVEMENT, MINDFULNESS
is the best approach to wellbeing, breath and movement teachings that you can imagine for a retreat.

For this retreat, as the focus is to connect with the environment, the classes and workshop are designed to school your awareness and reconnect to the discovery of the feel-good feeling inside of you. This is a super powerful tool and guide you can foster, that also leads you to making great choices in life, such as choosing foods that nourish you, but also puts a lot of appreciation to the idea of joy and enjoyement - as one experiences with tasting great wine.

I will offer morning meditation sessions, and we will have 2 daily yoga sessions, consisting of classes and a workshop, Light Space Movement style. There will be extra time on Friday afternoon for an extra yoga session, Q&As, or a workshop on request, if questions or topics arrise throught this retreat.

Planeta Country House, Menfi

The retreat takes place at Planeta Country House, the newest hotel of Planeta Estate and Winery!

It focuses, next to the mindful movement sessions, on active relaxation and nature, such as wine making and growing food, and discovering the local environment. 

It is designed to be in an intimate and familiar environment. We will be a small group of people, where everyone can get to know each other, laugh a lot, have fun, and at the same time have the space to relax and retreat. There will also be enough time for you to deepen what we learn and discover.

Spend your stay combining the best of yoga and wine, food and nature -
connecting back with nature to relax, to enjoy

FAQs

  • Yes you can. You can also come with a friend, partner, child or alone. What ever feels best for you!

  • No, you don’t. Anyone can join, wether you are a total beginner (I love beginners mindsets) or a professional yogi. The yoga sessions and workshops are designed to include any level and experience and there is always enough spasce to find your own flow and feel great. I include a lot of my own approach and teachings, which offers learning opportunities and great experiences for everyone.

  • No. I highly recommend everyone to get their own travel insurance, because you never know what happens and there is always a possibility for you to not be able to make it. The retreats are not fully refundable, and 2 weeks before the start of the retreats not refundable at all. So to be on the safe side and stress free, I recommend you to have your own insurance. I have one as well!

  • Not really. If you are looking forward to it, this is a great preparation!

  • Comfortable clothes, that you feel good in and allow you to move well. It is also always good to bring a sweater and a pair of socks. especially when we are still in the spring or head towards the autumn time, it can be a bit colder in the mornings or evenings. Some people also just really enjoy to be cozy, especially when doing very gentle activities, such as slow classes or meditation sessions.Also, I can recommend to pack sunscreen, mosquito spray, and swim wear, incase you like to jump into the pool or ocean. If you like to dress elegant for dinner, La Foresteria Restaurant is a fine dining restaurant, you are welcome to do so.If you like, you can bring your own yoga mat, but it is not necessary, as they will be provided at all retreats.

  • Flights and airport trasnfers are not included.
    Only the transfer expenses during the retreat for activities that are part of the program, e.g. to go to sights or the wine tastings. I can always arrange for you an airport or city to retreat place transfer, but it is not included, as people arrive from different parts of the world at different times.

  • On all retreats we serve vegetarian and vegan friendly food. Sometimes there will be fish, as the retreats take place close to the ocean and it is a nice way to try culinary specialties from the regions. But in any case, I will ask for any dietary preferences and allergies before any retreat, so we can accomodate everyone, wether you have celiac disease, a lactose intolerance, religious dietary restrictions etc.

  • Part of the retreat package are only the dates announced. If you like to arrive earlier, or leave later, you will need to book your accomodation extra for those days. This can be at the same place, if there are availabilities. I can also always give you recommendations of places to stay at or things to see if you like to plan a longer travel.

  • The sessions will mostly be lead in English, as the group is international. Obviously I can always translate parts into German, my mother tongue and Italian, which I have learned.
