Yoga Retreats with Margherita Dal Pra
We travel not to escape life but for life not to escape us
That’s how I feel about retreat. It’s not about running away, it’s about creating space to remember what matters. To be in your body, in your breath, in rhythm with the land and the season. A place where time stretches, the nervous system softens, and you begin to hear yourself again.
I create these retreats as spaces of presence, beauty, and deep restoration, where we move with intention, eat with reverence, and rest without guilt. Where you can show up exactly as you are, and be met with warmth, quiet, and community.
Why join?
-
• A Sacred Pause •
These retreats go beyond asana. Each day we weave together movement, breath, mantra, meditation, and self-inquiry. Practices that meet you where you are and support you on every level: physical, emotional, energetic.
-
• Rooted in Ayurveda •
From the rhythms of the day to the food we share, everything is infused with Ayurvedic wisdom. Seasonal meals, daily routines, and the overall flow of the retreat are designed to bring balance so you leave feeling nourished, steady, and more yourself.
-
• Connection •
These retreats are intentionally intimate, warm, and welcoming. You’ll have time to rest, explore, or do absolutely nothing as well as moments to connect, reflect, and feel held in community.
I offer a collection of annual retreats in locations worldwide that I have returned to for many years, each shaped with care and intention. These spaces weave together movement, rest, wholesome food and the simple joy of being held by a beautiful place. Explore the retreats below to find the one that speaks to you.

Nourishing Yoga
Open to all ages and levels of fitness and experience. Every session will have attention to detail (alignment), awareness of breath (pranayama), openness to grace (attitude) and intelligent sequencing (vinyasa krama). The morning yoga classes will be more upbeat and energizing, and the afternoon classes more relaxed.
All sessions will be adapted to the group and modifications of the poses will be offered to cater for all participants and to ensure that everyone is receiving the benefits of the practice and individual attention.
Nourishment guided by the seasons
Health and nourishment are a gentle thread woven through my retreats. The way we eat, move, rest, and share time together is guided by seasonal wisdom, simplicity, and care. Rather than following strict rules or prescriptive approaches, the emphasis is on food that is wholesome, delicious, and prepared with attention to balance and flavour. Daily rhythms are unhurried and spacious, honouring natural cycles and allowing time to settle, digest, and listen inward. This creates a supportive backdrop for the retreat experience, inviting reconnection, vitality, and a deeper sense of wellbeing.
A teacher of depth, warmth and soul, Margherita weaves together asana, mantra, mudra, pranayama, and Tantric philosophy into transformative, heart-led practices. Her teaching is intuitive, grounded, and rooted in lived experience. Fire & Nectar is an invitation to come home to yourself, held in the elements.
