welcome
La Dolce Vita retreat is an invitation to immerse yourself in your yoga and movement practice, breathe deeply and find the beauty in life’s simple moments. Located in the Italian countryside north of Rome, this experience offers a peaceful escape from the rush of daily life. Here, you can allow time to slow down as you nourish your body, mind and soul through mindful movement, locally grown food and authentic human connection.
This is a welcoming to grow, learn, and cultivate daily rituals that will carry you beyond the mat & retreat.
the retreat
July 20 - 26, 2025
Say yes to a serene 7-day, 6-night stay in the Sabine hills, where you can recharge and rejuvenate in an intentional way. This retreat is all about creating space within, listening to your intuition, and enjoying a relaxing summer holiday in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Through mindful movement on the mat, time spent in nature, grounding meditations, and friendships with new friends, you’ll find a rhythm that nourishes you from the inside out.
We'll move in sync with the land, rising with the sun and resting during darkness. The new moon falls on the fifth day of the retreat —an ideal time for dreaming up new ideas and setting intentions for the future. By the end of the week, you’ll feel lighter, more balanced, and full of new energy to bring back to your everyday life.
