@La Selva, Amalfi Coast, Italy
We have designed this Yoga Retreat at the idyllic La Selva for those who need recharge and restore their body and mind, and to have the space and time to listen and communicate with their soul. La Selva is situated on a hill overlooking the Positano sea and surrounded by nature; it is truly a place of outstanding natural beauty. Nestled among olive and lemon trees, La Selva is a healing sanctuary of calm, quietness, and beauty.
For the practice of Yoga, La Selva has two purpose built large wooden platforms, one sheltered, one open, with a sweeping vista across the sea between Positano and Montepertuso.
For the meals, La Selva offer creative vegetarian Mediterranean cooking using their fresh and organic ingredients cultivated in their own gardens. They also produce their own organic and home-made extra virgin olive oil, honey, oranges, lemons, tangerines, fig jam, marmalades and natural cosmetics.
This retreat included 2 sessions of yoga practice daily, meditation, and evening chanting. During your free time, you can visit the numerous beaches along the Amalfi Coast, and there are many possibilities for hiking and urban walks in the area.

With about 20~30 minutes’ walk across a panoramic path you arrive to the centre of Positano and the beach. We also suggest you pack lightly and wear comfortable hiking shoes or sneakers as you arrive. Luggage will be load on the zipline lift at Vallone Porto, on the main road of Positano.
