TUSCANY
WOMEN'S WELLBEING & PILATES RETREAT
22 - 28 June 2026 - Chianti, Italy
Do you feel the need to slow down, to reconnect with yourself and to fully immerse in a place where life feels gentle and abundant?
Then join us in the heart of Tuscany, where rolling vineyards, sunkissed hills and an 11th-century estate create the perfect setting to savor the sweet taste of Italy.
Imagine mornings begin with a gentle pilates class and a deeply grounding meditation, while the day unfolds with new adventures, like long wine walks, a creative workshop, learning the secrets of the Italian cuisine or a horse riding tour through the vineyards of Chianti.
From shared stories over long dinners, to quiet moments in the garden - all these experiences will not only give you a sense of belonging, but so much joy, that you will return home feeling deeply recharged, inspired and overflowing with gratitude and feminine energy.
THE EXPERIENCE
THE INTENTION
The intention of this retreat is to guide you into reconnecting with the art of slow and intentional living.
Inspired by Italy's culture, beauty and the meaning of la dolce vita, we invite you to remember how nourishing it is to surround yourself with beautiful things like breathtaking landscapes, outstanding architecture, good food and warm human connection.
It's about being present with all your senses. About slowing down enough to truly taste, feel, see and experience life in its full spectrum. About enjoying long meals with the girls, moving your body gently, exploring art and history and letting life unfold without rushing.
This space will help you living life more consciously - where you feel deeply nourished by the simplicity and richness of each moment.
