A Retreat In The Heart Of Puglia
18th - 23rd July 2024
Escape to Puglia for a deeply nourishing and energising retreat. Immerse yourself in the peace of the olive groves, with delicious homegrown food, inspiring activities and plenty of time. There will be time to think, time to move, time to rest, time to reconnect with yourself. Give yourself some time to be and invite more space, peace and balance into your life in a beautiful, natural setting.
Time to BE looked after, to BE nourished, to BE inspired, to BE re-energised.
Lose yourself in space and time...
This Retreat will be the perfect mix of guided mindful activities and rest. From freshly prepared meals with local produce to sunset movement sessions and daily group activities, Sophie and Audrey create the perfect space for you to focus on yourself in a breathtaking natural setting. Time to BE is the ideal way to reset, escape the hustle and bustle and remind yourself that sometimes less is more.
Terossa extends over 3 acres of land dotted with olive, walnut, fig, almond, apricot, peach and pomegranate trees, a gorgeous saltwater pool and plenty of terraces, hammocks and secluded nooks to retreat to.

TESTIMONIALS
Juliette G
Sophie and Audrey have encouraged and supported me in talking and moving on these retreats. Insights have grown and developed into a new relationship with myself. I have had my own, quiet, revolution.
Audrey and Sophie bring together a unique mix of personal experience with a range of complementary skills and professional expertise. They create a warm, empathetic and gently challenging environment with much fun and laughter along the way.
You both provide an exceptional retreat that does not have it’s equal in Europe as far as I know and I’ve been on many. Thank you for being so nurturing, loving and skilled to make a huge difference in my life and by giving me the tools to change. It’s refreshing to see how down to earth you are
