For our Italian Summer Retreat we will be staying in an 18th century "Masseria," (farmhouse) that has been completely restored, in the perfect time before the heat and the crowds get overwhelming. The 14 acre property is up on a hill half way between the Adriatic and Ionic Seas. This idyllic estate features incredible architecture, a beautiful pool, yoga space, and pathways to the neighboring forest. Along with exploring the grounds and visiting local markets, we will swim in both the Ionian and Adriatic seas! 

Prepare to immerse yourself in simple Italian pleasures, healthy and alkalizing food, and a yoga program designed to deepen your practice and transform your mind and body. We recommend renting a car so you have the freedom to explore this incredible area. Massages are available for booking upon arrival. One day. during the week, we’ll go to Ostuni for lunch, shopping and beaching in one of Puglia’s most picturesque towns.

Alex and Chrissy are not only dear friends but their teachings compliment one another's. Alex takes her love for neuroscience + coaching and interweaves it into her flow and Nidra practices. She offers tools to help relieve imposter syndrome and anxiety 

Chrissy's talent in body reading aids her in helping students not only get into poses they never thought they would, but also in discovering more about their physical, emotional, and mental health, and how they are all interconnected. 

Both Alex and Chrissy will be offering optional workshops involving Katonah Body readings, imposter syndrome, microbiome, and more.
