A week of yoga, connection and inner steadiness in motion
Life is always moving; through seasons, through shifts in our minds and bodies, through the different roles and rhythms we find ourselves in. Practicing yoga in flow is a powerful way to reflect and embody how we move through life itself: adjusting, responding, staying open, and finding steadiness within change.
This retreat is an invitation to explore what it means to flow, both on the mat and in your daily life. Through dynamic vinyasa yoga sessions, partner practices, mantra singing, and calmer afternoon sessions, we’ll explore the different layers of flow: physical, emotional, and energetic.
Rather than resisting change or holding tension, we learn to meet each moment with presence and flexibility. We’ll use yoga as a practical tool to reconnect to the part of us that remains steady, even when life feels fast, full or uncertain.
There will be space for reflection and sharing, to move forward in life with more ease, trust, and a sense of freedom.
This retreat is for anyone who wants to reconnect with themselves, build resilience, and rediscover the natural rhythm between effort and ease — between structure and flow.
Fleur van Hille
People often describe me as a warm and sunny person with an intuitive approach to teaching yoga. I like hearing this description because it shows that I’ve made a real connection with my students. And if there’s one thing about yoga that I love the most and which characterises my classes, workshops and retreats, it’s the feeling of being connected.
A retreat offers us the possibility of a truly profound experience of yoga. Surrounded by nature and among like-minded people from every corner of the world, a unique journey unfolds. Conversations open up, emotions are untapped, and discoveries are made…
In the quiet of each morning, we begin our yoga practice in stillness, taking time to anchor our awareness in the present moment through a guided breathing exercise, a meditation or visualisation. Then, drawing on the energy of the rising sun and the freshness of a brand-new day, I lead you through a vinyasa flow that is both gentle and energising.
During the dip in energy that tends to follow lunchtime, the sessions slow down, allowing for a deeper exploration of the techniques and practices encountered earlier in the day. There’s also plenty of time for sinking into a profound state of relaxation with restorative or yin yoga, or even yoga nidra (yogic sleep) – sometimes accompanied by mantras, music, or myths.

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.
