This retreat is meant to open us to the wonders of the Dordogne, providing a beautiful vacation with the balance of learning, fun and discipline. Every morning, after a yoga session, a breakfast with local products is at your disposal. For excursions we prepare a lunch package to have a picnic on one of the beautiful sites. We will visit prehistoric sites, medieval castles, a buddhist monastery, enjoy a canoeing excursion, swim in the Dordogne river and dine or lunch at a gastronomic restaurant with the best local food. We will prepare our meals “at home” and discover the Perigord cuisine and wine tasting. The vineyard is surrounded by plenty of spectacular walking trails.

I enjoyed the wonderful time in the Dordogne at the yoga retreat. We were with a pleasant group in a wonderful house in the middle of a breathtaking landscape. Suzanna's lessons are the best I have ever experienced! After doing yoga twice a day, I was super fit and flexible again. The teaching schedule, which logically build up energy for the successive yoga postures, was really so fascinating and fantastic! The food was also delicious and healthy, we ate outside every day in a giant garden. In addition, there was also a cultural or sporting mindful outing every day! It was a really good time. I hope to be able to come again next time!

Do you want a real treat! Then go with Suzanna to the Dordogne for a wonderful week of yoga but also cultural and culinary experiences. The environment of the house where you stay is spectacular. Wonderful to do the morning yoga with all the natural beauty around you. After a Suzanna session you feel reborn. By the way, the entire area is grand represented with medieval castles and towns. Very nice and touring through the area is included. Suzanne knows all the beautiful places. You can also enjoy hiking here ... so bring shoes for this. The highlight was the canoe trip on the Dordogne. Totally awesome scenery and sounds. But also the yoga session at the river. It was a super nice week with nice company. Would do it again! And Suzanna is super host and yoga teacher.

A wonderful week for yourself! Relax in this beautiful area. Enjoy the great yoga classes in nature. The small setting is also pleasant. Stay in a unique place, a vineyard, far away from the hectic pace. Plenty to do and see in this area. Tip: rent a car.
