Autumn in the Dolomites Yoga Retreat
Retreat for a moment from your daily life to relax, nourish yourself and learn more about your body, heart, mind & spirit!
Come with us to the sunny mountain village of St. Lorenzo, South Tyrol in Northern Italy 16-19 October 2025.
We will stay at Saalerwirt Hotel, a 4 star family run hotel right in the middle of nature. We will have morning and afternoon yoga sessions followed by delicious vegetarian/vegan or non-veg Tyrolean specialities. There will plenty of time in between our yoga sessions to go for a hike or bike ride, or simply to relax at the hotel spa.
The yoga classes include Meditation, Customized Therapeutics, Vinyasa Yoga, Yoga Philosophy, Pranayama and Mudra.
Franzi & Bryce met in India in January of 2022 & fell in love some months later while exploring their mutual fascination with the mystical island of Crete. Franzi’s background is in Jivamukti Yoga & Bryce with Ashtanga & Yoga Therapy.
These two lovers enjoy spending their time in nature, making art, taking long walks, doing their practices & holding space for people to cultivate their self care and self love.
Franzi specializes in creating intuitive & intelligent flows based on the capabilities of the people she is surrounded with, while integrating pranayama, bandha & alignment principles all together into a moving meditation. She is also an avid runner, chef, artist, clothing designer and butterfly in disguise.
Bryce specializes in creating therapeutic practices based on individual’s needs. Having prevented a full spinal fusion for severe scoliosis, he is known world wide for getting people out of pain, laying the foundation for superhuman qualities to be developed & providing a safe space for people to cultivate expanded states of consciousness & compassion.
