Here you are entirely off-grid, with water straight from the mountains, no electricity cables or Wi-Fi.

This is a totally unique experience, in the incredible surroundings of our mountain hideaway, near Megève in the French Alps;
But our retreat offers more than the physical practice of yoga and hiking; it provides a space for self-enquiry and self-reflection. Uncover the depths of who you are as you delve into guided meditations, journaling, embodied yoga and somatic self-reflection exercises. Embrace the opportunity to disconnect from distractions and reconnect with your core essence, unraveling the layers that make you unique. With compassionate guidance, we encourage you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs, enabling you to make positive shifts in your life.
As you journey alongside 11 like-minded individuals, a sense of community and belonging will envelop you. Share your stories, laugh, and support one another as you navigate the winding paths of self-discovery. Be part of a community that forges profound, embodied connections.

- 2 daily yoga practices (dynamic in the morning and restorative late afternoon), a total of 4 hours each day, facilitated by Soraya and Mike Farr)
- Opportunity to start your day in silence
- Daily meditation

There is plenty of space in the day to hang out in the wood-fired hot tub, nestled in the mountainside. read in a hammock, hike, try some archery or our new cold outdoor nature shower!!Laughter usually filters out of the kitchen as folks sit around the kitchen table, helping to prepare meals (Our chefs love sharing their passion for plant-based cooking) Or you might be asked to help chop wood or tend the campfire whilst watching the kaleidoscope of light bathe the mountain tops. We find that Karma yoga helps to bring about grounding in practicality and to bond the group, giving you a chance to get to know everyone.
The highlight is, however, the luxury of living simply, in nature and being nurtured by sleeping close to the earth under canvas, lulled by the chorus of crickets and the nearby gorge. Embrace the adventure, feed your soul, and embark on a transformative journey unlike any other.
Book your retreat with us today and rediscover the magic hidden within you.
