Pilates Reformer

Re:set & Re:store

All Level ✺ 29 October - 4 November 2026 ✺ Casa Erica, Málaga, Spain

As the year winds down, give yourself permission to pause, look inward, and rebuild from a place of intention.

This reformer retreat offers an immersive week of mindful movement, personalised sessions, and restorative rest by the Andalusian coast. We’ll run two reformer classes daily, mornings focus on strength, alignment, stability and power to energise you for the day ahead. Evening sessions shift to restoration, encouraging you to slow down, work on mobility and flexibility, release and calm. With 8 reformers available, we’ll split into two small groups based on experience level. This means beginners receive the support and clear instruction they need, while more experienced guests are challenged in ways that help them grow.

The pilates sessions will focus deeper than the exercises themselves. Deirdre will guide you to tune into how movement feels in your body, using the practice as a lens to reflect on how you’ve been moving through 2026. Expect full body flows, space to refine your technique, and a clearer understanding of how your unique body moves.

Deirdre

Deirdre is a clinical Pilates instructor and teacher trainer with over 15 years of experience across various movement modalities. Specializing in rehabilitation and functional strength, she possesses a deep expertise in reading bodies and adapting the classical Pilates framework to meet individual needs. Her teaching is defined by technical precision and clear, educational cueing, ensuring clients progress safely from foundational movements to advanced repertoire. Originally from Sydney and now based in London, Deirdre is the founder of Pilates & Pals, a community that bridges the gap between movement, good food, and genuine connection. Her mission is to empower you with a better understanding of your own body, building a level of strength and awareness that extends well beyond the Reformer and into your daily life.

Re:New

Re:New

Intermediate ✺ 7- 13 Mai 2026 ✺ Casa Erica, Málaga, Spain

Dieses Retreat ist deine Einladung, für einen Moment aus deinem Alltag – und aus dem Autopiloten – auszusteigen. Eine Woche, in der du dir erlaubst, dich wieder zu spüren, anzukommen und einfach nur zu sein. Wir schaffen Raum, um wahrzunehmen, was da ist, deine Mitte zu finden und dich neu auszurichten: den Fokus wieder bewusst auf das zu lenken, was dich wirklich nährt und was dir wichtig ist.
Gemeinsam als Gruppe gehen wir auf eine Reise des Wiederentdeckens – eine Reise, in der wir Altes loslassen dürfen und uns öffnen für das, was neu kommen will. Abseits des Gewohnten erleben wir Leichtigkeit, Freude und Präsenz wieder bewusster und lassen uns von der Kraft der Gemeinschaft tragen. Diese Mischung aus Zeit für dich und gemeinsamen Erlebnissen macht Re:New so besonders – damit du am Ende der Woche nicht nur erholt, sondern ganz re:newed in deinen Alltag zurückkehrst.
Unser Weg führt über die Praxis: Am Morgen erwarten dich kräftige, dynamische Jivamukti Klassen, die dich energetisieren, stärken und fokussieren. Am Nachmittag tauchen wir in den Gegenpol ein – regenerative Praktiken wie Yin, Yoga Nidra und meditative Formate, die dich entschleunigen lassen, dein System beruhigen und Integration möglich machen. So findest du zurück in deine Mitte – im Körper, im Geist und in deinem ganzen Sein.

Katharina Kozel

Katharina ist Advanced Certified Jivamukti Yogalehrerin und lebt in Wien und Berlin, wo sie ihre Leidenschaft für Jivamukti Yoga als ganzheitliche und heilsame Praxis entdeckte. Jivamukti Yoga half ihr Werkzeuge zu finden, Balance in ihrem Beruf und im Lebensalltag zu finden und ihren Alltag auch als wesentlichen Teil ihrer Yogapraxis zu verstehen. Denn Yoga geht für sie weit über die körperliche Praxis hinaus und das ist, was sie leidenschaftlich mit dir in ihren Yoga Einheiten teilt.

Katharina hat 2023 ihrer Passion einen Raum und Namen gegeben: Sie ist Co-Founder von Mynd Yoga, dem ersten Yogastudio in Wien, das sich auf Jivamukti Yoga spezialisiert hat. Mit Mynd Yoga und in ihren Klassen möchte Katharina als Gemeinschaft Raum für eine Reise des Wachstums, des Erlebens und der Freude an Yoga „on-and-off the mat“ schaffen.

Gentle English October Vinyasa Flow Fleur van Hille All Level Yin Casa Erica, Spain Restorative Nidra Spain

Last days of Summer

Last days of Summer

All Level ✺ 15- 21 October 2026 ✺ Casa Erica, Málaga, Spain

Set in the late-October sun of southern Spain, this retreat offers a chance to extend the feeling of summer just a little longer. While autumn settles in across northern Europe, the climate here remains mild, creating the perfect space to rest, recharge, and slow down.

Each morning begins with grounding breathwork and guided meditation, followed by a gentle vinyasa flow to awaken the body and move with the warmth of the season. Afternoons are reserved for deep rest through restorative yoga or yoga nidra, supported by the calming rhythm of the ocean. Along the way, we’ll explore yoga philosophy, mantra, and mythology as gentle tools for reflection and connection.

This retreat is an invitation to digest what has been, reset, and ease into the changing season with clarity, calm, and renewed balance.

Fleur van Hille

I’m often described as a warm and intuitive teacher, and what I love most about yoga is the sense of connection it brings — with yourself, with others, and with the world around you. A retreat offers the perfect space for this connection to unfold more deeply. Surrounded by nature and like-minded people, conversations open naturally, emotions find expression, and new insights arise.

Each morning begins in stillness with guided breathwork, meditation, or visualisation, followed by a gentle yet energising vinyasa flow, drawing on the calm and energy of a fresh new day. In the afternoons, the pace slows, allowing time to explore practices more deeply and to rest through restorative or yin yoga, or yoga nidra — sometimes enriched with mantras, music, or stories from mythology. This rhythm of movement, reflection, and rest creates a space for balance, clarity, and a renewed sense of presence throughout the retreat.

German October Vinyasa Flow All Level Dynamic Olea, Italy Yin Restorative Denise Bürlein

Wild Roots

Wild Roots

All Level ✺ 11 - 17 Oct 2026 ✺ Olea, Rieti, Italy

Kennst du dieses Gefühl der Überforderung, wenn alles zu viel, zu laut, zu schnell ist? Wenn du im Alltag funktionierst und tust, dich dabei aber Stück für Stück ein bisschen verlierst?

In diesem Retreat richten wir den Fokus zurück auf unsere Roots, unsere Wurzeln. Wir nutzen unsere Kraft und innere Stärke, um Stabilität zu finden: Starke Wurzeln, die uns halten und tragen. Ein Gefühl von Erdung, das uns zurück in die eigene Mitte führt.

Und wo könnte man das besser spüren als in der wilden italienischen Natur? Im Herbst, wenn die Blätter bunter werden, ein Zyklus sich schließt und das Jahr langsam zur Ruhe kommt. Eine Zeit, in der Loslassen leichter fällt und Leichtigkeit wieder spürbar wird. Gut geerdet, und gleichzeitig leicht und frei.

Durch dynamische Vinyasa-Flow-Klassen kommst du wieder tiefer bei dir an. Du spürst dein wildes, freies Ich und findest gleichzeitig diese stille, kraftvolle Mitte in dir. Ergänzend zur aktiven Yogapraxis schaffen wir ruhige Räume des Loslassens: Yin Yoga, Mantra Circles und Breathwork, die dich verbinden und tragen.

Das Ziel ist, Schwere abzulegen, in deiner Mitte und deiner Kraft anzukommen und deine Stabilität und innere Stärke wiederzufinden – wild, frei, lebendig und geerdet.

 

Denise Bürlein

Denise ist Yogalehrerin in Wien und bietet dort regelmäßig Klassen sowie Workshops an und unterrichtet bei Teacher Trainings. Seit fast acht Jahren teilt sie ihre Leidenschaft für Yoga und hatte das Glück, von verschiedenen internationalen Lehrer:innen zu lernen.
Ihre 300h Ausbildung absolvierte sie 2020 bei Mathieu Boldron, was sie tief inspiriert hat.

Zum Yoga ist Denise damals gekommen, als sie sich überwältigt gefühlt hat. Alles war zu viel, zu laut, zu schnell.
Yoga hat ihr vor allem beigebracht, Ruhe zu finden – vor allem in stressigen Zeiten.
Es hat ihr geholfen, eine neue Verbindung zu ihr selbst aufzubauen und das Loslassen zu lernen, anstatt krampfhaft festzuhalten.

Ihre Einheiten sind kraftvolle Vinyasa-Flows, die dazu einladen, eine Verbindung zu dir selbst und deiner Umgebung herzustellen.
Sie kräftigen den Körper, aber noch wichtiger: sie stärken den Geist. Das Ziel ist, loszulassen und nicht an Dingen festzuhalten.

about the place
It doesn’t seem possible that OLEA is less than an hour’s drive from the crowded streets of Rome. With lush, abundant grounds of its own, along with a natural spring and a magnificent wooden yoga platform which overlooks the valley below, this is a truly magical place that’s ideal for spiritual practice, slowing down, and plunging oneself into nature.

Autumn

Autumn

Intermediate ✺ 6- 11 October 2026 ✺ La Viñuela, Andalusia, Spain

Autumn marks the threshold between heady saturation of summer and the stillness of winter, a time to begin slowing down as we turn our attention from outer radiance towards inner luminosity. Aligning with nature’s rhythm of letting go, honouring the harvest of experiences and insights from the past months, and preparing the ground for the fertile ground of the magic dark of winter.

Each day unfolds through the arc of the season: morning practices to awaken, clarify and inspire, afternoon sessions for contemplation, inspiration and somatic release, and evenings for rest, reflection, and regeneration.

The retreat serves as a passage—out of excess, into essence.

Rowena Johnson

Rowena is an Advanced Certified Jivamukti Yoga teacher, and a 200hr & 300hr teacher trainer, who has been practicing yoga since 2008.

With a personal practice of Ashtanga and Jivamukti, Rowena’s classes are strong, purposeful and interspersed with personal insights, spoken word and uplifting music. The alchemy created is inspiring and potent, far beyond the mat.

Whilst based in Berlin, Rowena teaches internationally on yoga teacher trainings, workshops and retreats.

If you want to take a class with Rowena you can find her at Three Boons Yoga in Berlin (also online classes) or try the yoga video we’ve  recorded with her last year.

Unfold within

Unfold Within

All Level ✺ 8-14 Oktober 2026 ✺ Casa Erica, Málaga, Spain

Dieses Retreat lädt dich ein, dich selbst mit neuen Augen zu sehen. Durch kraftvolle Yoga-Praxis am Morgen, beruhigende Yoga Sequenzen am Abend und Momente stiller Reflexion entsteht Raum, in dem du loslassen darfst – von Erwartungen, Rollenbildern und all dem, was du glaubst sein zu müssen.

Am Morgen erwarten dich dynamische, kraftvolle Jivamukti-Flows, die Körper und Geist aktivieren, das Herz öffnen und dich mit deinem Atem verbinden. Abends begleiten dich sanfte, erdende Sequenzen – Restorative und Yoga Nidra – zurück in Ruhe und Balance. Musik und bewusste Stille schaffen dabei Momente tiefer Verbindung. Kirtan und gemeinsames Mantrasingen lassen dich die Kraft der Gemeinschaft spüren – eine Erinnerung daran, dass Liebe und Akzeptanz in jedem von uns wohnen. Wer seine Praxis vertiefen möchte, kann am Nachmittag individuelle 1:1 Asana Labs mit Nils nutzen, um persönliche Fragen, Ausrichtung oder Herausforderungen auf der Matte zu erforschen.

Für viele von uns war es nicht immer selbstverständlich, sich weich, offen oder verletzlich zu zeigen. Wir haben gelernt, stark zu sein, uns zu beweisen, dazuzugehören. Doch wahre Stärke liegt nicht in Kontrolle – sie liegt im Mut, loszulassen und sich zu zeigen, so wie man wirklich ist. Hier geht es nicht darum, etwas zu leisten, sondern darum, dich zu spüren.

Dieses Retreat lädt dich ein, Mauern zu lösen, dich mit Sanftheit zu sehen und anzunehmen – jenseits von Rollen, Erwartungen oder alten Geschichten. Ein Weg, der dich zurückführt zu innerem Frieden – und zu echter Verbindung mit anderen.

Nils Schäfer

Das Gefühl von Balance und Gleichgewicht in unserer Verbindung zur Welt und all ihren BewohnernInnen steht für Nils als Yoga-Lehrer, als auch in seiner eigenen Yogapraxis, im Mittelpunkt. Seit 2021 lehrt er Jivamukti Yoga, um seinen SchülerInnen dabei zu helfen, sich selbst und den eigenen Körper zu schätzen und bewusst wahrzunehmen, welche Gedanken der Geist erzeugt. Yoga bedeutet für Nils zu fühlen, nicht zu überwinden.

Nils ist zertifizierter Jivamukti Yoga (300Std.) und Yoga Nidra (50Std.) Lehrer. Er unterrichtet u.a. im Jivamukti Yoga Roots Hamburg.

English All Level Dynamic Jivamukti Casa Erica, Spain June Spain Katharina Seeger

Inner Voice

Inner Voice

All Level ✺ 4- 10 June 2026 ✺ Casa Erica, Málaga, Spain

The Inner Voice is an invitation to sense rather than think. To move with awareness. To meet yourself beyond the stories and connect to your intuition.

Most of us are so busy and distracted that we’ve become disconnected from our inner voice – our gut feeling. During this retreat we will rediscover the whisper beneath the thoughts and connect to the subtle intelligence within.

As we journey inward through the practices of yoga and breathwork, we open the space where intuition, clarity and creativity flow naturally — guided not by doing, but by being.

We’ll start the mornings in silence, moving into meditation, pranayama and a Jivamukti asana practice. Classes will be fuelled by carefully curated playlists, chanting and reflection to energize and strengthen. Our afternoon practice will focus on breathing, moving, softening. We will explore breathwork and movement techniques, allowing us to experience and understand both our bodies as well as our inner landscape in new ways.

Katharina Seeger

Katharina is curious, creative and always interested in building connection. In her classes, you can expect dynamic asana, carefully curated music, along with mantra, breathing exercises, and hands-on assists. Throughout, there is a focus on connecting to the breath, exploring alignment, and diving into meditation techniques. Her classes blend challenging asana practice with spirituality, helping people reconnect with their essence. Katharina discovered Jivamukti Yoga in 2011, has been studying the method ever since and teaching for more than ten years. She completed her INTESOMA breathwork certification in 2023 and lives in Cologne with her son and husband.

Shifting Perspectives

Shifting Perspectives

All Level ✺ 2- 8 Juli 2026 ✺ Casa Erica, Málaga, Spain

Was passiert, wenn du den Blickwinkel änderst? Dieses Retreat ist ein Experiment, ein Raum, um das Vertraute zu hinterfragen und mutig neue Perspektiven einzunehmen. Es geht darum, Gewohnheiten auf den Prüfstand zu stellen, Bewegung anders zu denken und Klarheit zu finden – in dir selbst und im Umgang mit deiner Umwelt.

Mit einer Kombination aus Yoga, Meditation und Journaling erforschen wir, wie du durch kleine Veränderungen Raum für Neues schaffen kannst. Fließende Sequenzen bringen dich ins Spüren, kreative Reflexion gibt dir die Möglichkeit, Altes loszulassen, und Meditation schafft den Raum, um dich neu auszurichten.

In diesem Retreat geht es nicht um Perfektion, sondern um Exploration. Was passiert, wenn du loslässt, was dich festhält? Wenn du offen wirst für neue Gedanken, für Unbekanntes, für Wandel? In einer klaren und unterstützenden Umgebung wirst du eingeladen, mutig zu sein – Schritt für Schritt, in deinem Tempo.

Elke Waibel
Seit über zehn Jahren teilt Elke ihre Leidenschaft für Bewegung als diplomierte Tänzerin und Yogalehrerin. Ihre Arbeit vereint all ihre Erfahrungen und Ausbildungen und spiegelt ihren neugierigen Weg durch die Welt wider.

In ihren Stunden möchte Elke dazu inspirieren, den Körper als mehr als nur ein Werkzeug zu betrachten. Durch die Kombination verschiedener Techniken schafft sie einen Raum, in dem spielerisch zwischen analytischem Denken und intuitivem Fühlen gewechselt werden kann. Auf diese Weise fördert sie eine tiefere Verbindung zu sich selbst und zu ihrer Umgebung, die über die körperliche Erfahrung hinausgeht.

Ihre Motivation entspringt dem tiefen Wunsch, ein erfülltes und bedeutungsvolles Leben zu führen. Bewegung ist für Elke der wichtigste Wegbegleiter, und diese Leidenschaft bringt sie in jede Klasse und jede Begegnung ein.

August Gentle English All Level Dynamic Vinyasa Flow Olea, Italy Yin Restorative Vera Bettiol

Inner Glow

Inner Glow

All Level ✺ 16- 22 August 2026 ✺ Olea, Rieti, Italy

The height of summer invites us to slow down and soak in its golden warmth. Under the season of Leo — the sign of heart, radiance, courage and self-expression — nature reaches its fullest bloom, and so can we. August becomes an invitation to expand, reconnect with our inner light, and shine with ease.

This retreat offers a pause from daily rush, nestled among rolling hills, ancient olive trees, and the quiet beauty of the Italian countryside. If you’ve been carrying too much or moving too fast, consider this your call to rest — to return to yourself, rediscover your inner glow, and restore balance between energy and stillness.

Through mindful practice, rest, and connection, we’ll explore how to live from our centre, cultivating a steady radiance within and around us. Mornings will open with vibrant vinyasa; afternoons will soften into Yin, restorative yoga, and Yoga Nidra. Meditation and breathwork will guide you toward clarity and calm. Between sessions, there’s time to simply be — wander the olive groves, rest in the shade, sunbathe by the pool, write, dream, and watch the light shift across the landscape.

Come exactly as you are — a place of warmth, ease, and heartfelt connection awaits you.

Vera Bettiol Vera is an E-RYT 500 YA certified yoga instructor & former YTT lead. Vera is specialized in Vinyasa, Yin Yoga, Hormone Yoga Therapy (HYT), Meditation, EFT and crystal bowl sound-healing.

She was born and raised in Italy, lived for many years in California and has studied with several international teachers, each of whom has taught her the infinite possibilities of yoga practice and this ever-evolving path. Currently she teaches yoga at numerous studios in Italy, and travels the world leading yoga workshops and 200hrs Yoga Teacher Trainings. She continues her journey driven by love for this discipline and for knowledge and these are the same drives she brings to teaching.

When not teaching, Vera is passionate about lunar astrology, watching sunsets, sunrises, spending time with family & exploring every corner of the planet.

Amisha Desai

Our chef Amisha will host a traditional Masala Chai & Ladoo making workshop during the retreat.
Learn the magic of crafting your own authentic chai, blending warming spices with care and intention, and discover the joy of preparing homemade ladoos together.

A beautiful moment to slow down, connect, and experience the richness of traditional flavors — guided by our lovely chef.

“Cooking isn’t just a job – it’s my love language & a spiritual practice. When food is created from the heart, people can taste it, feel it & remember it long after the retreat ends. Just like my mum’s cooking still does for me, I aim to make every meal a special memory that brings people together.”

about the place
It doesn’t seem possible that OLEA is less than an hour’s drive from the crowded streets of Rome. With lush, abundant grounds of its own, along with a natural spring and a magnificent wooden yoga platform which overlooks the valley below, this is a truly magical place that’s ideal for spiritual practice, slowing down, and plunging oneself into nature.
