🤸♀️ What? A workshop: yoga and meditation in Southern Italy! That’s right – La dolce yoga!
⏰ When? June 18–22, 2025 (4 nights – Wednesday to Sunday – with direct, affordable flights from Kraków, Warsaw, and Katowice!)
🌍 Where? At a small yoga retreat centre in Sicily, close to the beach and nature.
🌴 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, go for a hike on Mount Etna, and spend an afternoon in Taormina – often called the "pearl of Italy." There will also be time to relax at the beach and enjoy the famous Italian pastime of dolce far niente (sweet doing nothing)! 🙂
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!

This is a general outline – the order of activities may change depending on the weather.
We'll stay in a charming B&B on the edge of Letojanni (just 10 minutes from Taormina), surrounded by olive trees and a 15-minute walk from the beach and town centre.
The building dates back to the mid-19th century and includes a beautiful yoga room and a terrace with green views. The retreat is less than an hour from Catania Airport.
Rooms available: single, double, and triple.
You can arrive earlier or stay longer after the retreat if you'd like – just let us know!
Included in the retreat are vegetarian, fresh, local, Italian, and Sicilian meals. (Even Italians say the best food is in Sicily!) Included: 4 breakfasts, 1 brunch, and 4 dinners.
A shared shuttle from the airport to the B&B will be organised on arrival day – €25/person (min. 6 participants).
A group transfer by train or bus will be arranged after breakfast, approximately €17/person. You’re welcome to stay longer (either at the B&B or elsewhere) and return on a different flight. Getting from the B&B to Catania Airport is very easy.
We'll practice twice a day – about 4/5 morning sessions and 4 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!
