Overview
Relax and unwind during yoga lessons then go discover yoga philosophy, nature and gastronomy in Provence on this fantastic activity filled break based in Saint-Jeannet; arrival is on Sunday evening and departure on Saturday morning (6 nights / 7 days).
2025 Dates – this experience week starts on Sundays each month between April and November – please see the calendar.
This wonderful yoga, nature and personal development holiday is based in a small village on the border of Provence and the Cote D’Azur, regions renowned for panoramic landscapes, coastal and mountain views and rich history.
You’ll stay in the medieval village of Saint-Jeannet for your 6 night / 7 day yoga holiday combined with guided activities and workshops. This tranquil location sets the scene for your twice daily yoga lessons designed to energise you in the morning and unwind and relax in the evening.
Through daily yoga and meditation practice, as well as outdoor activities and workshops, you will be able to reconnect with your body and mind. Every session is an opportunity to practise being mindful: to come back to yourself, connect to the here and now, become more present… and discover who you truly are and what you really want in life. We hope you will take the retreat with you and use the tools you’ve gathered here to stay connected to your own inner sense of peace, joy, and love, which are always there, because they are you. Our retreats are suitable for all abilities, and our teachers are experts at delivering sessions suited to the needs and abilities of the guests of each week, who come with a variety of age and experience.
During the week, there will be two communication workshops, one shared plant-based French gastronomy workshop with a professional chef and meditation sessions. You will also be able to enjoy a cooking class followed by dinner with a professional French chef. There is a weekly set schedule which will bring you new experiences and exploration, with everything from hiking to shared cooking and food, you’ll have yoga as well as free time to take part in massage treatments or simply explore the region.
Typical activities include a wonderful hike to get a 360 degree panoramic view over the Mediterranean sea, the French Riviera, and even stopping for a refreshing swim in the local waterfalls and freshwater ponds! On another day, you will end up off the beaten track on a meditation walk.
In your free time you can enjoy walking toward a 1000 year old oak tree, or perhaps finishing the day rambling to a local vineyard to enjoy some wine tastings.
During your wellness holiday, stay in a bright, renovated 19th century guest house. Three of the rooms boast balconies with stunning sea views. The other three have views of the majestic cliffs that give Saint-Jeannet its fame amongst the hilltop villages of the Cote d’Azur. Each room has a private ensuite bathroom, WiFi and various other modern amenities.
There is free WIFI throughout the house, as well as a fully equipped kitchen, a meditation and massage room, a sunny terrace, and of course a yoga studio, all at your disposal throughout your stay. Off-road parking in the village car park is possible free of charge with a token that you’ll be given for the week. Have an after dinner wander down the medieval cobbles and see where you end up for the sunset.
