We’re heading back to Puglia, Italy, to soak up the magic once again. Our retreat space is special for so many reasons - it’s beauty, it’s peaceful surrounds, and proximity to the beach.
This yoga retreat is for all levels, from beginners to experienced, and offers something for everyone - two yoga classes each day, optional meditation, delicious meals using local produce, and free time to….r e l a x.
The property is situated on 20 hectares of private land, just a 10 minute walk from the beach.
Puglia Retreat.
August 14-17th, 2026.
Earlybird on until December 25th.
This 4 day retreat includes a Vinyasa & Restorative practice each day, with pranayama, optional meditation, and optional journaling.
Perfect if you want to take a holiday and deepen your yoga, or establish a new rhythm with your practice.
Our historical, sustainably run farmhouse is situated in Puglia, Italy’s heel. It’s a peaceful and stunning place, with a very special feel to it.
Around us includes century old olives groves, the Ionian Sea, and whitewashed local villages.
Fly into Bari or Brindisi airport, and upon booking I can connect you with other attendees in case you would like to travel/transfer together. The property hosts will arrange transfers.
Puglia has so much to offer, I highly recommend combining the retreat with travel to places such as Gallipoli, Ostuni, and Polignano a Mare.

FAQ
How do I get to the accommodation?
In August there should be regular flights to Bari direct, or to Brindisi with a stop inbetween (often in Zurich, Munich, Dusseldorf). Brindisi is the closer airport, less than one hour away, Bari Airport is around two hours. Staff at our property will help you to arrange all transfers, both to, from and during the retreat if needed. Renting a car is a great option.
Once every one has signed up I will help link you all so you can arrange transfers, car share together if needed.

Absolutely!!!! This retreat is for all levels of yoga. No problem at all if you have never done yoga before - in fact what better way to begin.
How many people will be on the retreat?
I have a max of 14 spots available.
What should I bring?
Really anything you would take on vacation. A good book, swimsuit, hat, sunscreen, mosquito repellant, yoga wear, hiking/walking shoes, and clothes to lounge in. We have all the yoga props so no need to bring a mat unless you want to. We will also have organic handmade soaps and shampoos.
