DOLCE VITA
At last…. we shall expand our horizons with Shine On Tour! The word is out and
yes we are headed to Puglia as our first-ever European retreat destination!
Imagine embarking on a magical journey to the pearl of Italy, Puglia famous for its baroque architecture and olive oil production and has fast become one of the most popular places to travel to in Italy.
Puglia is located in the southern region forming the heel of Italy’s “boot” with whitewashed towns, dreamy Mediterranean coastline, Trulli houses and the food….oh me oh my, we shall dine in food heaven.

daily yoga
Dynamic Flow
Our morning practices will be challenging and awakening, yet accessible for all levels with familiar structuring within the flow such that students can fully immerse and reap the benefits of the practices.
Pranayama & Meditation
The asana daily practices will include breath work (pranayama} and guided meditations which help to bring harmony to the nervous system and ease to the mind.
Yin Yoga
These practices are our way to slow down the day. With time to rest and digest, landing in a state of deep relaxation.
Reiki Healing
Danielle is a certified Reiki Healer and can provide personal sessions but we will have a very special Yin + Reiki session included.
Taste the Rainbow
We will celebrate with a modern adaptogenic cocoa to conclude our final practice and commune by sharing the highlights of our retreat.
Gimme More
Throughout the week we will include special yoga workshops with Janet and Dani as well as sprinkle in pranayama and meditation experiences for a wholesome retreat style of practice.
daily nourishment
Food heaven awaits! A retreat is only as good as the food!
I seriously had food withdrawals after my return from Sicily, so I simply had to return for Italian cuisine, fresh from farm to table, it just doesn’t get any better.
Culture
You will experience a healthy food journey through the Italian culinary culture and heritage; traditional recipes and contemporary cuisine combined with lots of vegan, raw and gluten & dairy-free dishes.
Farm to Table
Many fresh fruits and vegetables are picked straight from the kitchen garden and the menu changes according to the seasonality of products, bringing different tasteful delights to the table.
Vitality
Your health and vitality depend on the food you eat every day. It is often said that we are what we eat. The choice of food, cooking methods, and proper combinations can have a remarkable effect on how we feel.
Celebration
It also becomes the hub for connection as meals are served around a communal table, it becomes a feast for the senses as it is all about nourishing the soul!
Join us on a journey where every bite is a celebration of self-care and conscious living.
Join us in the most rustic and sumptuously serene setting.
Enjoy 7 days of rejuvenation with yoga, meditation, organic cuisine, breathtaking nature, ancient architecture, beaches and adventures.
Let us embrace the ‘good life’ as we unplug from the day-to-day hustle and dive into the #eatpraylove yoga life.
I have been searching for the perfect “first-ever” retreat location and at long last, I believe this will be THE one to remember.
I cannot wait to embrace this adventure with you. Let our spirits be free and our cups overflow with joy and vitality.
Join me on the “retreat” to make memories that last a lifetime.
