Retreat in Apulia

KEEP MOVING TOWARD THE SUN! 🌴

🤸‍♀️ What? A workshop: yoga and meditation in Southern Italy! That’s right – La dolce yoga!

⏰ When? October 16–19, 2025 (3 nights – Thursday to Sunday – with direct and affordable flights from Warsaw, Kraków, and other Polish cities!)

🌍 Where? At a villa with a pool, on the outskirts of a charming Apulian town, surrounded by olive trees and palms, just 30 minutes from Apulia’s gems like Alberobello and Monopoli!

🌴 Dear ones, I warmly invite you to join me on a journey to the south, where time flows differently than in Poland, where the sun shines all year long, and where the view and sound of the sea soothe the soul. Here, syncing with the surroundings, we slow down and gently return to ourselves…
This trip is for those who want to immerse themselves in an Italian adventure – soaking up the sun, tasting the flavors of Italian cuisine, and practising yoga and meditation outdoors, surrounded by greenery and the beach!
We’ll spend lots of time in nature, practice yoga in the mornings and evenings, bask in the Italian sun, and indulge in local culinary delights. There will be time for beach lounging and exploring the gems of Apulia – Alberobello, Ostuni, Monopoli, Polignano a Mare, Brindisi, or Bari! 🙂
I’ll show you Southern Italy through my eyes, as someone living here with my family, working and teaching yoga. For anyone interested, I’ll also share stories about the colours and challenges of life in the South.
Whether you're just starting your yoga journey or already have experience, this intimate retreat is for women – all levels are welcome!

How to get from Bari Airport to the B&B:
It’s easy, quick, and affordable! From Bari Airport, take a bus to Bari Centrale station. From there, catch a train to Fasano (trains every hour, ~40 min ride, ticket ~€5). From Fasano station, walk 2 km to the B&B or request a car pickup from the B&B owner. 🙂

🧘 Yoga & Meditation:

We'll practice twice a day – with 3 morning yoga classes and 3 evening sessions.
The style I teach is Vinyasa Yoga – often associated with dynamic flow, but I favour slower sequences. The actual sessions will adapt to how you feel and what the group needs.
Whether you’re new to yoga or experienced, you’re welcome. The lessons will be adjusted to the group. We'll also explore different meditation methods.
I’m Iga, a certified Vinyasa Yoga teacher. For the past 4 years, I taught in Prague, Czech Republic, and now I live, teach, and organise retreats in Southern Italy – and I’d love to create a new yoga story here with you!
