4-Days Pilates Retreat in Tuscany

Would you like to upgrade your Pilates practice, get stronger, leaner, more flexible and release built-up tension that has accumulated over time? Located amongst the Tuscan hilltops in Italy, I’ll be hosting a four-day Pilates retreat together with my dear friend and pilates pro Kerstin Jacot from Zürich. We will exercise Pilates intensively, have time for nature walks, relax and enjoy fresh Mediterranean food. It’s time to start feeling gorgeous!

 

 

Pilates

In seven sessions, we will walk you through the classic Pilates movements that will allow you to gain control over your body so you can feel energised, stronger and full of life. This is the foundation for your continued Pilates routine. If you already are a Pilates enthusiast, going back to the essentials of this sophisticated method is always a good idea. Be prepared to challenge yourself and discover how wonderful you are made.

 

Tuscan experiences

You will discover a beautiful corner of Tuscany in the region of Arezzo. Belonging to the Chianti area, we are surrounded by vineyards and olive trees. If you fancy a shopping trip, there is the large Prada outlet space not far from the venue.

Cuisine: The gourmet restaurant Cucina Donnaluisa is run by Marialuisa Lovari, who led the team that won the prestigious Campionati della Cucina Italiana 2017 and is now part of the National Italian team. The food is amazing with seasonal, healthy ingredients.
