We are so excited to announce our second Italy Yoga retreat to the idyllic and enchanting Casavecchia, a 12th century olive oil vineyard situated just 20 minutes from the heart of Florence. Casavecchia is managed by the most hospitable people, offers a stunning and serene setting surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, and has a private swimming pool and yoga studio. Close by in one direction is the charming and authentic Italian town of San Casciano in Val di Pesa, renowned as the home of Machiavelli, and close in the other direction is Villa Vrindavan, a beautiful Vaisnava temple that offers spiritual programs, events and retreats, as well as houses the Museum of Sacred Art. We will have opportunities to explore both!! 

Days will vary but will consist of such things as: day excursions to historical and natural sights unique to this region of Italy, yoga sessions that will consist of physical and spiritual deep dives, communal vegetarian meals prepared with love and devotion by a private chef, and plenty of free time to explore or relax. 

You will come home from this journey rejuvenated, inspired, and filled with beautiful memories with beautiful people that will last a lifetime.
