Yoga & Hiking Retreat in French Alps
Chamonix, June 22-29, 2024
Take a moment to picture yourself at the mountain lake surrounded by majestic peaks of French Alps. What would you feel? Is it joy filling your chest with every breath of crispy and fresh air? Or a touch of eternity from the mountains that have been here before us and will remain when we are gone?
Join me in Chamonix, France to immerse into the nature, experience high mountain yoga and unforgettable guided hikes, nourish your body and soul through spa time and massages, enjoy delicious food, mindfully prepared by our own private chef and, of course, deepen your yoga practice.
Looking forward to rise over the clouds?
Chamonix
Chamonix is a vibrant French town at the foot on Mont Blanc, the highest mountain of the Alps. It is known both as a world-class ski resort and hiking destination. Majestic mountains towering over the town make the scenery here arguably the most spectacular in the French Alps. The snow-capped peaks soar into the bright blue sky, ancient glaciers sweep down towards the valley floor and waterfalls cascade through pine-covered hillsides.
Make your dreams about mountains and nature come true in this replenishing retreat!
The Luxury Alpine Chalet
We will stay in the luxurious, cozy yet spacious chalet with our own outdoors jacuzzi and sauna. Each of 7 bedrooms offers modern alpine design and mountain view. Several living and dining areas will be a place to get together for authentic talks and a place for you to retire and reflect. Gorgeous yoga shall lit with light will be our place to explore and nourish the body and the mind.
Yoga
This yoga retreat is a perfect opportunity to deepen your practice and bring your body and mind to balance and harmony.
You will start your morning with pranayama practice to raise the energy and set intention for the day. 20-30 minutes of breathwork will be followed by creative vinyasa yoga to keep the body and mind flexible and strong. This class is challenging but accessible for everyone.
Later in the afternoon you will have a chance to relax and stretch during a restorative or yin class to wrap up the day and let your body relax and heal.
I also offer 1-2 workshops on groups’ request. Most popular are Alignment in Basic Asanas, Backbends and Arm Balances but I’m always open to build something different depending on your needs.
And a cherry on the pie…
If you haven’t been practicing with me before, I’m happy offer you a free private class once you sign up – online or in person ($100 value).
