Deepen Your Practice in Italy – A Movement Retreat Like No Other
Escape to the rolling hills of Italy for four nights and immerse yourself in movement, breath, and restoration. This retreat is designed for those who move—dancers, aerialists, yogis, and pilates practitioners—seeking to refine their practice, reconnect with their bodies, and explore new depths of strength and fluidity.
Mornings begin with invigorating Pilates. Afternoons invite rest, open training, or aerial exploration. Evenings unfold in connection through exquisite meals, deep conversations, and gentle somatic practices. Personalised Pilates sessions on reformers and chairs allow for tailored growth, while Vayu Aerial Yoga offers a playful and expansive release.
Come move, breathe, and realign in this all-inclusive retreat. A space to explore, refine, and recharge.
