Join us for an amazing week long yoga retreat, where we will be staying at a beautiful Villa Solaria, a 12 bedroom Italian villa overlooking the stunning Tyrrhenian sea with views of Capri and Mount Vesuvius. You will have the priceless opportunity to experience the Amalfi Coast through the eyes of a local.
This retreat is the perfect blend of Italian Vacation, Yoga and Exploration.
If Positano, Sorrento, & Capri have been calling your name, this is the yoga retreat for you!

We will be provided with an amazing location, yoga classes, and be in the care of those who know the culture, food and history of the stunning Amalfi Coast. This is what sets this opportunity apart from other Italian vacations.
