BACK TO ALL RETREATS.
Yoga with Kavita
Cultivating Creative Expression through Yoga and Art.
May 8 – 15, 2027
Kavita invite you to join her in Sicily to reclaim space for joy and creative expression through embodied movement and visual art. We spend much of lives managing the practical aspects of living. This is a week to remember the joy of being playful, curious and present.
Spend a week at Salinara, a Historic Art Farm and Retreat Center near the ancient city of Marsala and walking distance from the Mediterranean Sea.
Wake to the warmth of the Sicilian sun in your charming apartment with lime-stone walls and tilework dating back to the 17th century. Take in the view of the Mediterranean Sea, the salt flats and vineyards stretching out before you.
Begin the day with an Embodied Yoga practice led by Kavita. Practice dynamic, playful movement to connect with your innate sense of self and the joy of living in a body. In the evening, take time for intentional rest with gentle movement, a restorative asana practice and yoga nidra.
Nourish your soul with Farm to Table Mediterranean meals lovingly prepared by the talented Chefs at Salinara.
Ignite your creative expression through ceramic workshops and cooking classes taught by locals professionals.
Walk or bike to the Mediterranean Sea to witness spectacular sunsets.
This is a week to slow down and savor time to move freely, to create art, to savor every meal, to rest… You can choose to venture out to explore nearby villages, hilltop towns and ancient ruins or spend relaxed afternoons in the gardens and terraces of Salinara. May this week give you space to cultivate practices that bring the creative spirit into your everyday life.
