Tuscany yoga retreats
A place for peace, to take a break from our busy lives, to retreat…
The yoga retreats
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.

A dedicated yoga studio space
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.
Our yoga teachers
Claire Hickson
Claire, based in Oxfordshire, is a Vinyasa yoga teacher, energy healer, poet and author, dedicated to creating a healing space for her students to show up and connect on a deeper level. Passionate about the energetics of yoga, meditation and breathwork, she takes her students on a journey of releasing and shifting energy and emotions from the body to clear space and make room for their true spirit to shine through.
Poetry is her creative outlet, and she has just released her first book “In Light’ which charts 49 soul guiding poems to celebrate her 49th year.
Claire finds hosting retreats in the UK and abroad are a fantastic opportunity for her to create a longer period of time to work with people on a deeper level, to make meaningful change and facilitate growth through the various modalities she teaches. Her retreat at Villa Rosmarino promises to be very special!
Julie Dixon
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 to Italy to run a very memorable retreat for us in 2024.
