Yoga is a process of awakening the body, breath and mind.
Our retreats offer you the ability to deepen your practice without the distractions of daily life.
Perhaps you’re new to yoga – no problem! Our retreats cater to all abilities including beginners.
Around the villa there are plenty of places to just chill, relax and unwind, whether it’s sunbathing, reading or stargazing and meditation reflection, you will feel completely immersed.
The top floor of Villa Rosmarino provides a huge, bright, airy, dedicated yoga studio space. Outdoors, an open Shala space located behind the swimming pool area provides another wonderful location under the dappled light of the surrounding trees and views across the vineyard and mountain range to hold the yoga sessions.
The vibe is laid back, rustic, but with attention to detail, to ensure our guests have an immersive and really comfortable experience with incredible yoga, hiking & ‘Ottolenghi style’ plant based food from our onsite chef.
Founder of Rosmarino Retreats, Jules is a passionate Vinyasa yoga teacher, trained through the Yoga Alliance, with additional specialist training in Yoga for Cancer. She founded Jules Yoga Studio in her home village of Great Milton, Oxfordshire, in 2025 where she shares her love of mindful movement and connection with her community. Jules believes in creating a nurturing space where students can build strength, balance, and inner calm. Beyond the mat, she’s inspired by all things interior design, gut health, and, most of all, her kids.
This will be Julie’s 3rd consecutive year running a retreat at Rosmarino!!! Julie lives in Hong Kong. She’s a keen runner (with 10 half marathons under her belt), mum to 2 (now adult) children and an all-round gorgeous human. Her yoga journey began with a 250hr Yoga Teacher Training course via the world accredited Yoga Alliance over 15 years ago. Since then, she’s further developed her teaching skills completing 300hrs in YIN/TCM training in India.
Recognising the ever-increasing demand for a more holistic approach to wellness, Julie recently completed an MBSR (Mindful based Stress Reduction) and a CEMB (Cultivating Mental and Emotional Balance) course. Continuously learning, she is currently studying Women’s Health using Yoga to maintain Hormonal Balance and Lymphatics.
She runs regular classes as well as day retreats in Hong Kong and we can’t wait to welcome her back to Italy to run a very memorable retreat for us in 2026.
