Yoga in the Alps
May 31 - June 7, 2026
All inclusive journey to serenity
May 31 – June 7, 2026
Step out of your daily routine and immerse yourself in the beauty of a place that feels far away. Breathe in the fresh alpine air, admire the awe-inspiring mountains, enjoy the pristine lake, and take walks in this beautiful setting surrounded by apple orchards, vineyards, and chestnut trees. With plenty of time and space to relax, rest and take care of yourself, you will feel renewed, inspired and recharged. Two daily yoga sessions with Rubén Vásquez will guide you to release stress while effectively increasing flexibility, improving circulation, and feeling a deep sense of serenity.
Wonderful Location: South Tyrolean Mountains Italy.
Everybody loved this place so much that we are returning in 2026!!
Our nature retreat is a private paradise located in the heart of the Isarco Valley, just a few miles from Bressanone in the Alto Adige region of Northern Italy. Surrounded by a pine forest and designed to be a cocoon of peace, our Nature Retreat is an oasis of deep relaxation where everything supports your tranquility.
Nestled in this peaceful environment, you will find all the amenities you need to feel pampered: stylish rooms, very comfortable beds with top quality linens, gourmet food that combines local traditional flavors with the lightness of Mediterranean cuisine.
Our hosts have made every effort to create a destination for peace and relaxation, including an inviting garden, many lounge areas for relaxation, a heated infinity pool that takes you from inside to the garden. In addition to a Finnish sauna, bio sauna and Roman bath, you can enjoy spa treatments to rejuvenate and you can jump in the crystal clear lake to feel energized! There are plenty of opportunities for hiking in the area. You can also enjoy a walk to the nearby villages of Naz, Sciaves and Rasa.

This is the Retreat for You
A yoga retreat is a powerful journey to discover your internal source of deep peace, balance and joy. I know that it can be daunting to navigate all the details of traveling to another country. No need to worry. I will take care of all of the in-country arrangements to ensure that you have a smooth and enjoyable experience.
With many years of traveling and teaching yoga in Latin America, Europe, and the U.S., I am skilled at providing a worry-free, distraction-free retreat. I have crafted a fulfilling, enriching and rewarding experience for you, and I will ensure that you will get the most out of your retreat. My main goal is for you to enjoy your retreat thoroughly.
If you have practiced yoga with me, then you already know that I tailor each practice specifically for our group. This means that even if you don’t practice yoga regularly, you will be able to enjoy the yoga practice and savor the benefits of my unique approach, Simple Yoga, which has been tested for more than 20 years. During this week I design a progressive practice that enhances flexibility, circulation, balance and coordination. In addition, breathing practices, exercises for contemplation and guided meditations help you feel a deep sense of peace, relaxation and well-being.
