      About this trip

      Ignite your personal creativity through yoga and painting on a week-long retreat with acclaimed yoga teacher and visual artist Estelle Thomson at Yogababa Lounge in South of France

      Estelle believes that connecting with your creative self leads to empowerment, mindfulness and joy. This retreat is for you if you know you are a creative being and need a space to begin that journey. 

      By the end of your week you will be revitalized in body, mind and soul.

      Yoga & Creativity

      Each day will consist of sunrise meditation and sweaty morning yoga practice in the incredible Yoga Shala that faces morning sunrays. Through intuitive painting techniques, writing, collage and her playful, high vibe style Estelle will guide you to reconnect and strengthen your personal creativity through her morning 'CREATE' session. In the afternoon, you will have ample time to explore the charms of South of France by taking the many optional excursions available or just relax at the Lounge. Our sunset yoga class of the day will be music-filled and brings in the elements of restorative yoga. 

      This is not a training, this is a vacation. You do not need experience in either art or yoga. Estelle pride herself in being accessible to all.

      Estelle really out did herself, taking us through a beautiful, insightful curated journey within a dreamy Italian setting. The daily practices were a great balance of contemplation, exploration and alignment within a supportive environment. I couldn't have asked for better company during this retreat, everyone in attendance was truly wonderful.

      This adventure was amazing. From meeting beautiful ladies, touring the beauty of Tuscany, and experiencing a very well organized retreat.

      I had a wonderful time on the France Retreat with Estelle. It surpassed my wildest dreams of what a Yoga and Creativity Retreat could be. Beautiful atmosphere, amazing food, and an incredible teacher in Estelle. The days were a magical balance of activity and creativity and of course relaxation. A beautiful group of women gathered together and were held and supported in their journey by Estelle, who is a skilled facilitator and phenomenal guide.

      Under the mindful and soulful direction and teachings of Estelle and along with 12 other beautiful soulful women I was able to: BE present - “FEEL” every part of the week- “THINK” about my intentions and actions in order to go forward to “DO” small daily acts of bravery in my life” - .... This was not a week-long journey to be “fixed” or “mended” but instead to be mindful through art- yoga -journaling -and music to search within for the tools we use and require in our own life toolbox per se. This was an amazing week.
