Over the past few years, I’ve had the unmitigated pleasure of living along the “Côte d’Azur” (The Azure Coast), aka the French Riviera. And like the name suggests perhaps the most beautiful part of living in this breathtaking part of the world is the tranquil blue oceans. 

Few things would give me greater pleasure to share this dreamy oceanscape with you. 

So naturally I jumped at the chance when fellow teachers and friends Kim Dastrup and Katie Schiffgen asked me if I wanted to join them for an opportunity to lead my own yacht with a small group of students on a sailing and mindfulness retreat in Sardinia, Italy, only a stone’s throw from where I’ve been living and in the same beautiful ocean I’ve come to love. 

What could be better than a mindful week of sailing the Mediterranean off the peaceful shores of Sardinia, Italy with me and a very small group of people?

Short answer: Nothing.

This unique and unforgettable retreat will be hosted by me and my fellow teachers Kim Dastrup and Katie Schiffgen, each with our own private yacht and small group (8 people max). We are partnering with Yoga Sailing Holidays who provide the yacht and crew to pilot and manage the boat. 

Sardinia is a picturesque playground for quiet sailing with numerous world-class moorings sheltered from all winds. Whether you are looking for vibrant coastal cities, authentic archaeological sites, or quaint villages, Sardinia has something to offer to all sailing enthusiasts. With our highly experienced skipper at the helm, you can sit back and savor the varied delights of this beautiful island and its famous “Emerald Coast.”

What You Can Expect

We’ll start with a morning meditation with perhaps just a little bit of gentle, mindful movement each day taught by one of the teachers. 

Next, we eat a delicious breakfast prepared on board by our hostess. 

Then we’ll set sail for our daily swim stop, which includes some of the bluest, clearest water you've ever seen with magical caves, mountainsides, and cliffs towering over the water.

As we sail through the Mediterranean on our private yacht, you’ll have the freedom to relax as you please with a book, sunbathe, chat with your fellow retreat guests, or learn to sail with your skipper. 

This will be an unforgettable experience!
