About the Retreat
Eat, Yoga & Love… Under the Tuscan Sun is a week-long invitation to slow down, move your body with intention, and reconnect with yourself through the rhythms of Italian life.
This retreat blends mindful yoga practice, nourishing food, and the simple joy of being present — set in one of Tuscany’s best-kept secrets. Hosted and led by Dagmar, this experience is designed to feel grounded, spacious, and deeply human. Designed for those who value presence, beauty, and meaningful connection.
Your days begin with yoga and breath, unfold into free time and exploration, and end with shared meals and conversation.
This is not about doing more.
It’s about arriving — fully.
The Venue
Borgo Belsedere
Our venue, Borgo Belsedere, is a hidden gem — a place where time seems to soften. Nestled among rolling hills, olive groves, and vineyards, it offers tranquility, beauty, and just enough structure to support rest, exploration, and connection without feeling rushed or over-programmed.
This is not a tourist trip. It’s a lived experience of Tuscany.
Borgo Belsedere is a journey through time and tranquility. Located in the rolling countryside of Tuscany, the estate offers uninterrupted views of vineyards, grain fields, and olive groves — an ideal backdrop for yoga, reflection, and meaningful connection.
Less than an hour from Siena and close to Pienza, Montepulciano, and Montalcino, the location balances peaceful seclusion with access to some of Tuscany’s most beloved regions.
