SUMMER GLOW YOGA RETREAT IN SICILY
4 – 11 JULY 2026
A sun-soaked, soul-nourishing escape to the south-eastern corner of Sicily.
This retreat is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with your body and breath, and move gently with the rhythm of summer. Expect deeply held yoga practices, beautiful food, open skies, and time to truly exhale.
Why join?
-
• A nourishing pause •
Set in a restored 19th-century farmhouse nestled in 80 acres of olive and almond groves, this retreat offers a blend of comfort, nature and stillness.
-
• Held by experienced, heart-led teachers •
Margherita and Michaela share a combined 30+ years of experience in yoga, meditation and holistic wellbeing, offering both structure and spaciousness in their teaching.
-
• Balance of practice + play •
Morning and evening yoga, delicious Sicilian food, white-sand beaches, and a mid-week boat trip to swim in crystal-clear waters. This is summer, softened.
A Rhythm to Return to
Each day begins with a dynamic, alignment-based practice to awaken the body and breath. Afternoons are yours to enjoy. Rest by the pool, explore the surrounding countryside, or dive into a good book. Evening sessions are gentle, restorative, and grounding, helping you unwind into rest.
Mid-week we’ll take a boat trip along the coast, time to swim, snorkel and soak up the beauty of the sea.

Please note: Double room rates apply only when the room is shared by two people. If you're booking solo and would like to share, we’ll do our best to pair you with another guest of the same gender. If we’re unable to match you, a single supplement will apply and must be paid prior to the retreat.
Getting There
Several airlines offer direct flights to Catania Fontanarossa Airport (CTA), the closest airport to the retreat. You can fly from London Gatwick with EasyJet or British Airways, or from Stansted with Ryanair or Jet2.
The retreat venue is around 75 minutes by car from Catania. We recommend hiring a car - especially if you’d like to explore the region during your stay. Sharing a hire car with other guests can be a great option, but airport transfers can also be arranged if you prefer not to drive.
Please plan to arrive at the venue between 3pm and 5pm on Saturday, in time to settle in before our welcome dinner and opening circle. Departure will be on the final Saturday by 10am.
Why not make a longer trip of it? Sicily is full of beauty. You might choose to visit Ortigia (a romantic peninsula near Syracuse), Noto (a UNESCO Baroque town), Taormina (a chic hilltop town with sea views), or even hike Mount Etna, Europe’s highest active volcano.
About Margherita
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.
About Michaela
A guide of grace, creativity and compassion, Michaela teaches from the heart, offering movement and stillness as gateways to inner clarity and joy. Her path has been shaped by life’s rawness as much as its beauty, and she brings that lived wisdom into every space she holds. With a deep belief in the unique light within each person, Michaela invites you to return to your body, your breath, and your innate capacity to feel, heal, and move with life. Her teaching is intuitive, soulful, and attuned to the rhythms of the present moment.
FAQs
-
Not at all. Margherita’s teaching is supportive, inclusive, and adaptable—whether you're new to the practice or have been on the mat for years.
-
Absolutely. Many guests come alone and often leave with lifelong friends. If you'd like to share a room, we’ll do our best to match you with another solo guest, though this can’t be guaranteed.
