Yoga & Fitness - (7 Day/6 Night)

This was my 2nd time at the retreat. I loved it as much as my first trip. It’s the perfect escape for a long weekend either alone or with friends. Alix, Dave and the team are all so helpful and friendly and organised lots of great activities. See you next year! X

Beautiful surroundings, lots to do, delicious food and wine tasting, scenic pool, incredible views, lovely teachers, guides and a great group of people to chat to.

I've been wanting to write a review for months - since my trip in early May of this year, but it's taken me a while to find the right words to describe what a beautiful and life changing experience my time at Tuscan Fitness was.

I solo travelled to Florence, Italy, and arrived at Tuscan Fitness, not really knowing what to expect. I was met with such warmth, generosity and kindness.

The schedule was packed with fun and exciting actives, such as hikes, yoga, fitness, horse riding, olive oil tasting and wine tasting. You could choose whatever you liked and there was never any pressure to do any of the activities. If you wanted to spend the afternoon relaxing by the pool, that was fine too!

I loved the actives so much. The horse riding was just bliss, roaming through the Tuscan mountains in the peace and quiet. I was prompted to write this review this week, whilst in my regular yoga class at home, as it reminded me of the gentleness that surrounded me on that trip. The teachers were all so brilliant and I felt that I advanced in practice in just the few days I was at the retreat.

The accommodation was beautiful - classic Tuscan villas and rooms, surrounded by the most magical landscape. On our hikes, our guide would stop to teach us about the local plants and vegetation, which I enjoyed immensely.

The whole week left me feeling nourished and comforted by the beautiful souls that I had met and I will forever remember my time there.

We’ve just come back from an incredible 3-night yoga retreat in Tuscany with Tuscan Fitness, and honestly, we couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

The accommodation was absolutely outstanding — beautiful, traditional Italian countryside surrounded by vineyards and the most incredible views. The rooms were huge, comfortable and full of character, and the whole setting was just perfect.

The food was another highlight. There was such a great variety of options, so there was something for everyone, and everything we had was delicious. The yoga classes were really well organised and varied, and it was lovely to have the perfect balance of yoga, relaxation and time to simply enjoy the surroundings.

The staff were all so lovely, welcoming and helpful, which made the whole experience even better.

We went as a group of five friends and had so much fun together. It was the perfect combination of beautiful surroundings, great food, fantastic yoga and plenty of laughs. We genuinely didn’t want to leave!

Thank you to everyone at Tuscan Fitness for such a special few days. We’ll definitely be back! 🇮🇹🧘‍♀️🍷

So, this was my second time to Tuscan Fitness yoga and fitness retreat. Alix, Levi, Adventure Dave, Elske and Olaf are truly amazing. From the moment Levi picks you up at the train station you are welcomed like family. The staff at La Forra are so kind and ready to help you with any need. Accommodations are wonderful, food outstanding and pace of activities perfect. This time I added horseback riding and a massage, I was in heaven. If you truly want a getaway that brings you back to fitness and grounding. This is your retreat. My day started with yoga followed by an amazing breakfast. Next a beautiful hike with Dave and a HITT class after with Alix or Elske. Lunch and time by the pool to regroup. The late afternoon was yoga with Olaf and dinner at 7pm. One hike was to the castle for olive oil tasting with Castello di Montegonzi family and one evening to the Tenuta San Jocopo Winery. Everyone at Tuscan Fitness truly would like you to have a relaxing and amazing time. You can do as much or as little as you want. I chose to do it all and live in the moment. I hope you do too! I will be back!
