We are delighted to officially announce the dates for our 2025 retreat to Italy. Our visit to YogApulia earlier this year was so successful that we’ve been invited back, and we couldn’t be happier!

Join us as we lead you through 7 days of practice from April 26th to May 2nd, 2025. The setting, YogApulia, is quite frankly gorgeous; something like heaven on earth. The food is beyond description, the atmosphere serene and the surrounding countryside exquisite.

Enjoy 6 mornings of Mysore-style practice, 4 afternoon workshops, and optional day excursions to nearby attractions including caves, beaches, towns and olive-groves. There will be options for on-site massages, as well as plenty of down-time to do whatever you want! Some of the most popular activities from our last visit included reading by the pool, impromptu gymnastics lessons at the beach and evening board games.

Please note, YogApulia has 6 rooms, all of which are twins. If you wish to come, you will be sharing with one of your fellow yogis. See this as an opportunity to strengthen existing friendships or the potential to create new ones! This worked particularly well during our last stay, with the group turning into one big family by the end of the week.

Finally, this retreat is focussed on Mysore-style practice. You will benefit the most if you already have a regular self-practice. If you don’t, you now have about 9 months to start! Come along to any of our Mysore classes (every day but Monday) or reach out to us if this is not possible and get advice on how to start at home.

What’s included:
⁃ 6 nights accommodation
⁃ 2 sumptuous plant-based meals per day
⁃ Snacks and refreshments
⁃ Wi-fi
⁃ 6 morning Mysore-style classes
⁃ 4 afternoon workshops

What is this word Sādhanā? As with most Sanskrit, the definition is mercurial but could perhaps be simply boiled down to “a daily devotional practice”. It requires a disciplined surrendering of ego, where one uses tools including asana, pranayama, meditation and chanting daily. This is why self-practice is so important for this week, as we help students one-on-one in the Mysore room as they work through their own sequence and discover new depths of the practice for themselves.
