If you’re looking for a holiday that combines wellness, self-care and relaxation along with great food and lots of fun, then this is the trip for you!
I had only done a little bit of yoga before attending the retreat, had never heard of Ashtanga, did zero exercise and am generally quite inflexible and stiff, so when Candy and Claudio say it’s for all abilities, they really mean it. Over the week they introduced me to the daily yoga practice with patience and compassion and helped me achieve things I never thought I was capable of.
I left the retreat feeling well-rested, empowered, motivated to continue learning yoga, and with a wonderful new group of friends!
Come along, you won’t regret it.

Could not recommend this retreat enough. Ischia is as stunning as the photos
Candy and Claudio are masterful teachers. Endlessly knowledgable, passionate and compassionate. As trained Yoga Teacher myself and a student of Candy and Claudio for years, I am still learning from them in every class. They combine their knowledge in other disciplines such and breath work and functional training to challenge and grow your practice regardless of where you are at in your yoga journey,.
I have attended this retreat twice already and come home with life long new friends whilst feeling stronger and rejuvenated.
The accommodation and food is delicious, and just a short walk to the port for gelato, overlooking crystal blue waters to die for! The thermal baths are a treat in the cooler evenings, a really special experience.
The retreat is fuelled with heart and generosity. So grateful for this community.
but please be warned, if you leave you cake unaccompanied, claudio will eat it.

My husband Matt and I went on Candy & Claudio’s yoga retreat to Ischia. The retreat provided the calm we needed after a busy few months, the other guests were great fun and the yoga practise advanced us both to new levels. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
