CHOIX D'UN SÉJOUR AVEC NOUS
THE BENEFITS OF A PROVENCE YOGA RETREAT
Provence is one of the most sought-after destinations for wellness retreats in France. With its exceptional sunshine, lavender fields, olive groves, Mediterranean landscapes, and gentle way of life, it offers the perfect natural setting to truly recharge.
Choosing a yoga and Pilates retreat in Provence means slowing down and reconnecting with yourself in an environment that naturally invites relaxation. Away from the demands of everyday life, each day unfolds through mindful practices, shared meals, and precious moments of stillness.
With Daphné, a certified teacher in Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, Pilates, and sophrology, each retreat is designed to welcome all levels — even if you have never practised yoga or Pilates before. The atmosphere is warm, supportive, and free from any pressure to perform.

PROGRAMME
What a Typical Day Looks Like
Each day flows naturally between practice, rest, and discovery, with a deliberately gentle pace.
8:00 AM – 9:00 AM
Yoga or Pilates Sunrise Class
The day begins gently with an outdoor morning movement session, weather permitting. Deep strengthening Pilates or a flowing Vinyasa yoga practice — depending on the weekend programme. The perfect way to awaken the body before breakfast.
9:00 AM – 10:00 AM
A warm and welcoming moment around a delicious homemade breakfast. A time to connect, share, and enjoy a gentle start to the morning.
10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Themed workshop or free time
Depending on the session: a guided ceramics workshop with Sonia, a walk through the Provençal garrigue, a visit to a charming Provençal village, or simply some free time to read, swim, or relax.
1:00 PM – 6:00 PM
A homemade vegetarian or Mediterranean meal. The afternoon is entirely yours: a nap, a swim in the pool, reading in the shade, or a gentle walk nearby. Rest is an essential part of the retreat experience.
Lunch and free time
6:00 PM – 7:30 PM
Gentle Yoga or Yin Yoga
At the end of the day, enjoy a slower and more introspective practice to release built-up tension. Yin Yoga, deep stretching, or a pranayama (breathing) session — the perfect way to prepare for a restful night.
8:00 PM
Outdoor dinner whenever the weather allows — a warm atmosphere and local flavours. A moment of connection, sharing, and joy to end the day.
A shared evening meal

TESTIMONIALS
Words from our guests
“I don’t know the studio, but I had the chance to take part in a yoga, Pilates, and ceramics retreat, and I truly appreciated the kindness, care, and attention to detail.
The chosen location was beautiful, the balance between yoga and Pilates was perfect, and everything was offered without any pressure. The meals were healthy, generous, and delicious. Daphné and Lucile prepare wonderful homemade, organic dishes, all within a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Thank you for this beautiful wellness escape! I would love to do it again!”

Angélique B.
“I took part in two retreats organised by Lucile and Daphné, and both were wonderful experiences. The locations they choose are always true hidden gems. The classes are complete, varied, and accessible, even for those who do not practise yoga or Pilates regularly.
A special mention goes to the homemade meals, which are balanced yet always delicious, both savoury and sweet. Finally, the Lucile–Daphné duo is wonderfully complementary, caring, and full of energy, bringing real added value to these retreats.
Thank you both!”
