2008 Dates: May 24th - 31st, August 21st - 28th.
This is the place where dreams and yogi's are born! We retreat to a converted monastery in the magical region of Puglia, on Italy's heel. Nestled in the Itria valley, near Martina Franca where traditional trulli houses make up part of the accommodation we are hosting a traditional hatha yoga retreat.
Spending time in Puglia is like turning back the clock, food is straight from the ground and onto the table then generously dribbled with olive oil the vegetarians have never had it better! Vineyards, forest and olive groves make up the landscape while we engage in a deeper understanding of our yoga practice at this very special destination.
