A Sacred Pause
A journey designed with you in mind. Create time to return to your intuitive inner wisdom and reconnect with your wild spirit.
Unhurried Mornings
Mornings wrapped in the gentle hug of the island's peaceful energy. Seaside yoga, followed by a walk in nature. The smells of a homemade brunch back at the estate await.
Afternoons to explore
Afternoons afloat in the sea. Explore the island's beaches, swim in its waters, and breathe in a sense of freedom. Discover the island's seaside delights, countryside wine tasting, or visit a local village.
Deep Connection
Nourishing yin yoga practices in our cozy yoga shala, as the dinner a table is set for you under the stars. Healthy vegetarian dinner and local wines await. Laughter can be heard around the table. Connection that speaks to the spirit.
This is a sacred pause — a return to your wild, rooted self.
Let's gather. Let's root down. Let's retreat.

What Retreaters Say
"I'm a huge fan of Jennison's yoga retreats. Jennison clearly puts so much thought and care into creating these retreats. When that is combined with the wonderful groups of women who attend, the gorgeous destinations, and the fact that literally everything is taken care of for retreaters, the result is always a really relaxing, enjoyable trip with plenty of laughter, delicious food and reliably fantastic yoga classes!"
"Amazing, in every way possible. You feel like you are part of a family/community as soon as you start the trip. Everyone has this amazing energy within them and makes you feel supported and understood. The yoga workshops and journaling also challenge you to step out of your comfort zone and have a deeper connection with yourself. As I said, amazing."
"Jennison brings together a perfect package for a yoga retreat. Yoga, location, food and fun. I love that you can also spend time with your fellow retreaters or just do your own thing, these retreats give you the time to reflect, plan or just relax."
"I loved the experience. It was a mini holiday in Italy, with a lot of lovely ladies, good food, good wine and relaxing yoga classes. I forgot how beautiful Italy is. The combination of Italy, the connection with the ladies, the fun activities, yoga classes and Jennison made the perfect retreat for me. I loved it."
"Although the yoga is very meditative and deep I loved the sense of playfulness in all of the sessions and group dinners which made everything so fun as well as very uplifting."
"Jennison, I was really moved by this retreat and you reminded me and gave me many tools to develop some things about myself. Thank you! You are such a unique person and make such special experiences."
"This was a sublime retreat in a stunning location with delicious food! I can't wait to go back."
"In a nutshell; a wonderful chance to experience yoga, meditation and intention setting with friendly, like-minded people in a beautiful location. Lots of attention to detail and extra treats woven in to the experience make Jennison´s retreats special."

Yoga Sessions
Your yoga sessions while on retreat are a light-hearted, spirit nourishing experience. All levels of yoga practitioners are welcome to join us.
Jennison will provide modifications and variations for all participants to make the most of their movement experience. Typically, we enjoy an energizing vinyasa practice in the morning (never too early!), and nourishing yin yoga in the evenings.
This retreat invites you to gently peel back the layers of stress and external expectation, as you re-discover the quiet truth at the center of your being. Through movement, stillness, breath, exploration, and nature, we create space to return—not to something new, but to what has always been within: our essence.
Flexibility & Choice: Although the retreat is designed for you to experience each of the movement and organized group activities, you are always welcome to opt-out of a session if you need extra rest, alone time, or something else that honors your energy that day.
Hi, I'm Jennison
I am so excited to share this retreat with you. As a seasoned yoga teacher of 15 years and having run over 45 retreats, I am passionate about creating meaningful and memorable yoga experiences.
You can expect a light-hearted, spirit-nourishing retreat that leaves you feeling connected, appreciated and loved.
All levels of practitioners are always welcome. Remember, "yoga is not about touching your toes, but what you learn on the way down."
See you on the mat, my friend 🙂
