Denise hatch and Paulette Bodeman are long studied, E-RYT 500 yoga teachers as well as teachers of meditation and ceremonial practices. Through their intentional collaboration, home in the mystic heart, the school of mystery and manifestation has been born.

The sacred land of Umbria continues to call them back because of its healing nature and the transformations that await those who visit. Their initial connection to Lex Ulibarri, another studied yoga teacher, who teaches and runs retreats in Umbria, has become a heart connection.

Join us for a special eight-day retreat and immerse in the mystic nature of Umbria. This is magical yoga Experience in the Italian countryside, much more than a yoga retreat or an Italian vacation, in the sacred hills of Umbria, we will not only be deeply supported in the yoga practice, but we will immerse ourselves in local culture, food, wine, and history.

From the moment you are picked up at the train station in the nearby medieval town of Spoleto, you will be taken back in time, and pampered with all the generosity of the Italian provinces. The resort where we hold the retreat is a renovated 14th century olive oil mill and village, nestled under the watchful eye of an 11th century castle, the practice spaces and rooms are rustic and elegant. Service and food are done in the tradition of Umbrian Natural slow food, the local olive oil and wines are part of that tradition. This is a popular retreat, so sign up early!
