Spring Balance Retreat with
Seraina Steinemann
18th - 24th April June 2026
Do you long for a place where you can embrace life in all its richness? A space where you feel free to open your heart, carried by the sun, nature, and the joy of Italian living?
This retreat in Apulia offers you the gift of true connection – with yourself, with others, and with the present moment. Surrounded by ancient olive trees and the turquoise sea, you will experience days filled with lightness and depth.
Each morning begins with intention: yoga, meditation, and journaling set the tone for the day. Afternoons invite you to explore the beauty of Apulia – hiking through Mediterranean landscapes, relaxing by the beach, or savoring the delights of Italian cuisine. There will be time for yourself, as well as mindfulness practices that deepen presence and balance.
A retreat that blends summer, joy, and inner transformation. For you. For life.
The Retreat is held in German.

I’m Seraina from Switzerland, and my deepest wish is that everyone can live a fulfilled and authentic life. Through my work as an Emotional Release and Yoga Teacher, I support my clients in coming closer to themselves and finding their own path. At the heart of my approach is always the regulation of the nervous system.
The nervous system and our emotions have fascinated me for as long as I can remember – two elements that play an essential role in all of my sessions. I draw on ancient practices while also being inspired by the latest scientific insights, creating a space where tradition and modern knowledge come together in service of healing and growth.
Accommodation and Facilities
Our retreat centre is set in 2.5 acres of grounds in a valley filled with olive and almond groves.
Accommodation consists of six twin rooms and one double room all with private ensuite bathroom. All rooms have been renovated to a high standard using locally sourced materials, to create a luxurious yet simple and understated feel. A large outdoor courtyard provides the main communal eating space, and several outdoor terraces offer a place to relax in the sun or the shade.
Situated at the heart of the complex, the swimming pool acts like a colourful meeting point – with the blue water combining with the green olive trees and the red soil.
Food plays a central role in both our yoga practice and life. We believe food should be varied, unprocessed and nourishing to promote energy and wellbeing. The food we serve is plant based. All produce we source and grow at YogApulia is local, seasonal and organic wherever possible.
Refreshments are also available throughout the day and include tea, coffee, water & fruit.
The international airport at Brindisi is approximately 40 minutes drive away and Bari is further to the north approximately 55 minutes drive. Hiring a car in Puglia is relatively inexpensive and provides a great way to explore the surrounding countryside, local historical towns and beaches. Both Bari and Brindisi airports have a large selection of hire car companies including Avis and Hertz. It is recommended to book a car before your arrival. Alternatively, we can arrange a taxi to collect you on your arrival.
