About this Retreat
During this weekend we will offer plenty of workshops, giving you the opportunity to discover the practice of AcroYoga and related disciplines like Handstands, Contact Games, Partner Exercises and Thai Massage. Our experienced teachers team is here to create a safe environment where playful and sustainable learning can flourish.
This is an all levels retreat, suitable for total beginners as well as AcroYogis who recently started or want to refresh their skills. We will be running two levels (beginner & intermediate) simultaneously which will give you the freedom to choose what you would like to learn.
Guest Teacher
We have a very special guest teacher with us in October and we are so excited! It’s Dasha Kalinikina from Russia, a very talented and known acrobat who loves to teach at festivals all around the globe. She loves flows, slacro, hand2hand, and above all, icarian! We are very excited to have such a strong and inspiring acrobat with us.
Location
We are happy to host you again at the wonderful Sentupada Lumnezia in Vignogn. The house, which we’ll have all to ourselves, is located in a stunningly beautiful valley, the so-called ‹Valley of Light›. It is home to many mythological places and stories, but what we love most is the surrounding nature and the breathtaking views. Our house for the weekend also has its own gym as well as a community room where we can hang out and play games. We can’t wait to share this place with you again!
Schedule
The retreat will be from Thursday 2pm to Sunday 1pm. In the mornings we dedicate ourselves to the practice of AcroYoga, learning exciting postures, flows and inversions. The afternoons are about playtime, group activities and being in nature. After a full day of movement we will round off the day by focusing on relaxing elements like Massage or Yin Yoga.

We also hired a private sauna for the retreat, wheere you can relax your body after a long day of training.
