May 16-22, 2015

Your retreat begins at our Villa in Monticiano in the Siena region of Tuscany. It is slow and quiet, giving you time and space to relax and immerse yourself in the experience. Your accommodations are in a traditional Italian villa with beautiful outdoor spaces. Arriving Saturday afternoon, you will be treated to a traditional Tuscan dinner and relaxing yoga class. Sunday morning, you will wake up to enjoy a refreshing yoga class, followed by breakfast and your first photography workshop. You will then have free time to relax by the pool, practice your new photography skills, or read that favorite book you never have time for. You’ll end the day with a home cooked meal and an evening yoga class. The rest of the week is similar with several excursions including a guided hike, a day trip to an Italian city, and a wine tour. Optional activities such as sailing trips, cooking classes, or shopping excursions to all of the designer outlets can also be coordinated for an additional fee. We will commence your retreat with a farewell dinner on Thursday evening with the shuttle leaving Friday morning.
