The French Yoga Retreat

29/05/2026

When the daily CLASSES & movement tuition take centre stage...

I'm a firm believer that if you come on a RETREAT (Yoga, Pilates, Barre, Fitness, whatever!) you should leave having learnt something new, deepened your practice, tried a different approach or style, been corrected & been guided within a small group where you are FULLY SEEN, cared for & INDIVIDUALLY supported on the mat towards something that hits the spot 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼- The QUALITY of the yoga or movement elements come first! After all it's a YOGA (or pilates, fitness, barre) retreat & not a holiday with a few classes chucked in! 🙄

To us, the other bits are delicious, fun, cultural, relaxing, refreshing & wonderful but they're secondary & complimentary to the quality daily movement tuition we provide...

The movement practise will always take centre stage here & I couldn't be happier to be collaborating with the some of the BEST movement specialists I know in our sell out '26 retreats, '27 offerings (more info coming) & far beyond!

No trends, no fads just long established independent females in the industry working together, supporting each other to make magical things happen that benefit us all. Full circle moments & an honest, authentic offering in an oversaturated market ✨

Sound like your vibe? Drop us a ❤️ in comments so we feel the love ...




Just for starters ;)

Beautiful BERGERAC 🌸

It's changed a lot in the 9 years we've lived here & all for the better... Lots of new restaurants,cafes, shops, bars & the wonderful refurbished interior food halle 🙏

Coming from the UK we used to think it was sleepy & now we're on a different frequency of daily life we love a Saturday morning nip to the vibrant weekly market for local, fresh & reasonably priced goods & a mooch around the old town.
Having recently visited the UK countryside we couldn't believe how busy it was everywhere - here even on a more vibrant market day, the pace & vibe isn't overwhelming - FRENCH RURAL pace hits different ✌️

We often take our UK retreat guests for a little spin here just before departure from Bergerac airport.

A great addition to soak up simple french culture, yummy food & chilled vibes at the end of a peaceful week of countryside retreating ... Bliss 🙏

Watch out for our town on the - they'll be speeding through Bergerac 11th July 🚴
