About this trip

  

Join us for 7 nights of rest and relaxation in the beautiful Tuscan countryside.

 
 

      Spend a week surrounded by the unparalleled beauty of the Tuscan countryside, nourishing body, mind, and spirit. Slow down and take a break from stress and every day pressures, and experience life as the Italians do.


      Awaken daily with yoga, meditation and mindfulness. Enjoy delicious vegan meals made on site with mouthwatering fresh, local produce, and take a cooking class to learn how to make them for yourself! Our guests from previous trips to this venue are STILL raving about the quality and variety provided by the chef!


      Our venue, Il Grandeprato located in Castelfiorentino, Italy is ideally situated between the cities of Florence, Pisa and Sienna. We highly suggest using one of our open schedule days to hop on a train and explore this beautiful country! You will be at most of them within an hour. A balance between free time and scheduled group activities means there will be plenty of opportunity to make this retreat your own. 




A yoga retreat like none you’ve ever attended:


      It is our understanding that the practice of Yoga goes far beyond exercise. It is a guide for living a meaningful and purpose filled life. Asana (the physical postures) are only 1 of the Eight Limbs of yoga. Our retreats offer a beautiful opportunity to stretch the mind, looking inward to see how our outer experiences stimulate our minds. 


      We encourage you to be flexible on our yoga retreats. Challenge yourself by being an adventurer and traveling to see nearby sights on a whim. Or maybe your challenge is learning to slow down and go with the flow, allowing yourself to rest surrounded by the beauty of nature around you. Our work is done both inside and out, and sometimes you will only discover what yours is in the moment. 


      Be open, be flexible, and be free!

My ultimate goal is to reach peace and assist others in doing the same. I believe it is important to understand and take responsibility for our emotions, and always treat others with the same kindness and compassion we desire for ourselves. Looking at the world in a positive light is a powerful choice- one that can transform our lives. For years it has been my honor to teach others these same principals and techniques, both at home and abroad, in hopes that they will in turn spread that love and understanding wherever their lives take them.

We had an awesome time! Once again Roni delivered another memorable week. We learned to surf, did yoga everyday, ate awesome food. Hiked and saw beautiful places. Experienced sound healing, breath work and fell asleep on a hammock. Thank you Roni

A well-planned trip that was absolutely amazing, beautiful, peaceful and delicious ! Words cannot describe all of the goodness that happened, but here goes: From the start, Roni Yaari and Inner Spirit Yoga planned a well thought out retreat that focused on health and inner growth with amazing vegan food, in a rustic Italian farmhouse in Tuscany. The schedule was fluid and allowed for lots of time to sightsee, hike, swim in the pool, and go on the group activities leaving enough time for quiet and reflection. The group bonded in the deep and moving yoga led by Roni. She is talented at understanding people's needs and guiding us to personal growth. Her talents are many and she is an inspiration and great yogi. It all seemed so effortless but I know that its Roni and her teams style to think of everything to make the trip meaningful and great. They found real gem at Grande Prato with Chef Patrizia making wonderful vegan options for breakfast and dinner. We ate not only pasta, vegetables and fruits, but different homemade cakes each morning and a very varied and fresh 5 course dinner each night with the best wine I've ever tasted. I learned about myself on many levels and brought home so many health practices. What an inspirational trip! Thank you Roni! Namaste

I had a great time. Wonderfully flexible arrangements that managed to squeeze in a cooking class, yoga, city visits, excursions, & leisurely family dinners - all luxuriously paced. As a seasoned traveller it was a joy to relax and let Roni and Stefy, also seasoned travelers take over.

This was the trip of a lifetime. The retreat center was beautiful, clean, and the staff was extremely accommodating. The retreat center was right on Lake Atitlan, providing 24/7 breathtaking views. The food at Villa Sumaya was among the best food I’ve ever had. Everything was delicious and freshly made with local ingredients. I enjoyed every excursion we made to surrounding villages, and encountered nothing but kindness from the locals living there. Our leader, Roni, organized an exciting trip filled with surprises. She organized it in such a way that we were able to experience the Mayan culture, as well as spend some time relaxing at Villa Sumaya. This retreat was honestly perfect and I will never forget the time I spent at Lake Atitlan.

This was a fantastic trip! Villa Sumaya was very beautiful and clean. The food was amazing. They have a variety of massage therapists available for treatments. The two that I utilized were highly skilled. The trip was well planned by Roni and Stephanie. We had an opportunity to connect with the Mayan people in the water taxi's, in the local villages and at a school. We went kayaking, hiking, sightseeing and shopping. And of course we meditated and did yoga daily. I am excited to attend the next trip! Kate
