Welcome to your haven of peace. We will be waiting for you at the private retreat center for the group from 4 PM.
The center is composed of two beautifully renovated 18th-century buildings (formerly a wine storehouse and a stable), which were once outbuildings of the main house, whose history dates back to the 12th century.
Meals (vegetarian, focusing on local products) will be served in the large communal dining room, with its original exposed beams and magnificent wooden pillars.
The practice area is sure to delight you: designed by architect Alain Gabrielli, it’s a wooden and glass building overlooking a pond, situated in a clearing. This exceptional dojo was created for martial arts but is perfect for yoga, Pilates, and meditation.
The estate is calm and serene; the pond near the dojo offers incredible tranquility, and the surrounding forest allows for reconnection with nature. Spending four days in this environment will do you a world of good.
Upon arrival, Aurélie will welcome you, and you’ll have the chance to connect with the rest of the group during an opening circle.
From 5:30 to 7 PM, there will be a first Pilates session for those who have already arrived.
At 8 PM, everyone will come together for a healthy vegetarian dinner featuring local products.
The evening will be a time for group sharing.
We start the day at 8 AM with a light morning snack before heading to the dojo for a meditation session.
The morning continues with a 1.5-hour yoga session.
After lunch, you’ll explore the surrounding forest during an afternoon of forest bathing (sylvotherapy). Anthony will guide you to connect with the trees and benefit from their restorative properties. Sylvotherapy is an ancient Japanese practice (known as shinrin yoku), which activates physiological processes to boost energy and strengthen the immune system.
At 6 PM, we gather for a Pilates session.
After dinner, we will conclude the day with a sound bath. This harmonizing experience will be perfect for a restful night’s sleep.
We will follow a similar schedule today, beginning with meditation followed by a Pilates session.
After lunch, you’ll have free time to relax, take a walk, write, or simply unwind.
At 6 PM, we return to the dojo for a viny yin session.
On our final day together, we will begin with a yogilates session.
We will then enjoy one last lunch as a group, followed by a closing circle.
The retreat ends at 3 PM.
As all good things must come to an end, we’re certain that the connections you’ve made during this retreat will be unbreakable. You’ll return home feeling peaceful and full of wonderful memories.
See you again very soon!
*Please bring your yoga mat and other equipment. On-site, only a tatami mat will be provided.
