Matt began practicing yoga during his time training as an actor. After graduating, he couldn’t give it up so he continued to practice daily and seven years later he decided to train as a teacher in Morocco. The benefits were so huge that Matt is compelled to share these ancient teachings that have transformed his life, not only physically but emotionally and mentally. Yoga is not just a great workout but also a deeply spiritual practice which is unique to everyone. In Matt’s classes expect a challenge as well as relaxation but no strict rules. Just play and explore!
About Matt Penman
Jill was first introduced to yoga in 2003 in the Pure Yoga studios in Hong Kong. The journey began and she has never looked back!
Jill teaches classical hatha, holding the poses long enough to observe the body, the thoughts and most importantly our connection to our breath. She teaches her students in a relaxed atmosphere with gentle encouragement, kindness and humor. Jill’s overall intention is to help her students to be the best they can be and most importantly, to always be grateful
About Jill Hui
The villas are immersed within a 50 ha estate of rolling hills, vineyards, groves and woodlands. Having no immediate neighbours means we have total privacy, and no noise restrictions or curfew; making it an ideal venue for a retreat or a special celebration such as a wedding or birthday. The gardens are a playground for adults and children alike: lime, oak and cherry trees provide shade, while lavender and thyme, roses, jasmine and broom perfume and enliven the landscape. Dip into our swimming pool for respite from the midday heat and enjoy lounging on the deck chairs until sunset, watching the sky turn red and feeling the cool evening air descend.
We have been hosting retreats and providing support to teachers and workshop leaders for more than a decade. Many of our clients return year after year, becoming friends along the way. We feel that teamwork is key to creating extraordinary experiences and we will help you craft a unique and inspiring program: from planning your menu and tailoring activities to making you and your guests feel at home in our home.
A multifunctional studio with plenty of natural light, it is generously equipped with yoga and tatami mats, tables, chairs and blankets as well as a sound system. For those wishing to practice immersed in nature, there is a large sundeck and a shaded porch adjacent to the studio. In the cooler months the space is kept warm and cosy by a wood burning stove.
Includes daily breakfast and dinner.
An amazing week - trip of a lifetime!
amazing
I am in love with Tuscany, thanks to this retreat! Can't wait to return!
I had a really great trip!
The trip to Le Pianore was incredible! What a fantastic magical place for a yoga retreat! We felt like part of the family, from the delicious and lovingly prepared food, to the care and concern for anything we needed, everyone at this family owned and operated resort are some of the kindest folks you will ever meet!
Le Pianore, located in Monticello Amiata, was one of the most incredible places I have ever travelled to. It is hard to describe in words the beauty and sacredness of this land and these mountains, the retreat space and facilities, the food (!!), the farm, their mission and values, and the family that owns and operates it. Enrica, Phillipe, Laura, Marcello, and the entire family and staff were so open, warm, friendly and immediately made you feel not just at home, but a true part of their family. Every request was accommodated with a smile - they went above and beyond several times throughout the week. I could not recommend this retreat venue more and I cannot wait to return!
I had the pleasure of spending a week at Le Pianore for a yoga retreat. It was a magical, one of a kind place with awe-inspiring mountain vistas, historic stone buildings dating back centuries, inviting reading spots with hammocks and easy chairs that called out to you to relax, take a moment, and be inspired by the nature and history. The resort is owned and run by a family who loves Mother Earth and takes extra care in the organic produce, olive oil and wine that they produce. This beautiful property with babbling brooks, hiking, vineyards, swimming pool and historic stone buildings makes you wish you could stay forever. Meals were unique, healthy and delicious and we loved our wine tasting and pasta cooking class. The family is delightful and you know that they love what they do and pour their hearts into it. I left a piece of my heart in heavenly Le Pianore and hope to return.
Phenomenal! This was my very first yoga retreat out of the country and I experienced so much from the venue, the practice, food, people, etc. This was a very magical and sacred land, the yoga teachers were wonderful and the hosts were so warm and welcoming. The yoga studio was the perfect space to practice, the accommodations were comfortable and cozy, food was stellar! There is a lot of history surrounding this farm and land. I would love to return again one day. Grateful for this opportunity!
This retreat did not disappoint! The resort was the perfect back drop for unplugging and unwinding with a 360 degree breathtaking view of the Tuscan country side. We felt like family the minute we arrived. I have been on 5 retreats through Trip Tribe and this was by far THE best place for our yoga retreat.
My trip to Cinigiano, Italy was fabulous! Such amazing food, lots of site-seeing. The yoga studio was so amazing. Highly recommend the Tuscany area. It was so beautiful and relaxing and the natives are all so welcoming. I didn't initially know anyone that was attending the trip, but everyone was very nice and made me feel welcome.
The Italian Adventure with Suzanne Hauserman was every thing I needed; yoga, hiking, cooking class, great food, great wine, fantastic excursions and meeting like minded people, I did not want to leave.
What an amazing experience. I cannot day enough about Elana and her fabulous staff! Very serene location and the food was unbelievable! Everything is done with love and it shows!
Le Pianore can not be explained with words. I will try- amazing, breathtaking, spiritual. The food was delicious and the hospitality was amazing. I fall in love with Le Pianore.
The trip was fantastic
Very enjoyable!
So good! The whole thing from start to finish was perfection.
Well, whenever I think about Le Pianore and the time spent with my best friends, I start to well up. The land was magical, literally. Obviously Caitlin is my friend but she’s an incredible teacher. Between yoga (when I could do it), meditation, and silent walks my soul is so full. My love is a natural and I’ll keep going on her retreats. I’ll also be going back to Le Pianore. Home away from home.
Amazing!
Amazing! Beautiful landscapes, awesome people and inspiring yoga
Amazing classes, beautiful location, just perfect!
Cinigiano was truly amazing! Le Pianore was beautiful and the food was perfect. I would recommend this trip to any and everyone.
The trip was beyond my expectations and Le Pianore was the perfect, quaint, BEAUTIFUL spot for the retreat. From waking up each morning to the sound of chirping birds, practicing yoga in a studio with the most spectacular views imaginable to the tasty, healthy, fresh meals each day and fantastic off-site excursions that were planned. And the Micillo family (proprietors) were so lovely and accommodating to all of our needs and requests. Kudos, also, to Julie and Jana for all of their hard work and planning that went into putting together this wonderful trip!
Perfect trip from beginning to end. Breathtaking Tuscan views from your comfy room. Delicious, fresh cheeses, vegetables, breads and regional dishes prepared and served with love. So enjoyed roaming the countryside, exploring flora and fauna, tasting the fruits of the land...all with the brightest of blue skies. Day trips to Siena, private wine tastings, charming towns and villages put you right inside the heart and soul of the region. Hosts Elena and Enrica charmed us from our first hello-hug to our last kisses goodbye and our drivers proved fun and engaging. Give yourself this trip; you will be glad you did!
