🇮🇹 

Join Tony and Kyle for a week in sun soaked Sicily!  The landscape is ancient, arid, and endlessly inspiring. We’ll gather at La Masseria, a restored 19th-century farmhouse nestled among olive groves and rolling hills for a retreat filled with breath, movement, and Mediterranean magic.  The beautiful historic town of Noto is a 15 minute drive from the retreat center, full of shopping, eating and the most delicious Sicilian pastries.  Marzamemi, a picturesque coastal village with stunning beaches is also 15 minutes away as is the Vendicari nature preserve with its stunning beaches.  This retreat is about exploring this beautiful corner of Sicily, swimming in the Mediterranean Sea + our fresh water pool and slowing down to the sun soaked pace of Sicily in the Summer.  We'll have an optional boat day (weather permitting) and an optional group wine tasting experience at a fabulous villa.

The Practice

Our days begin with vigorous morning sessions, designed to expand your physical fluency and deepen your embodied awareness. These intelligently sequenced practices, enriched by mantra and breathwork, will challenge and refine your form, guiding you toward greater complexity with clarity and grace.

In the evenings, we’ll settle into a gentler, restorative practice, making space to reflect, breathe, and integrate.

Our practice space is a beautiful, pitch-roofed barn, fully equipped with all props and basking in the golden Sicilian light.
