Détails de l'événement
Welcome
For the 4thᵉ year running at Beau-Site, join Laurence Chehab-Fabry & Estelle Hartwig for a yoga retreat weekend in the Valais under the sign of balance.
Their Yin & Yang signature is evolving again this year: a subtle alchemy of exploration, deepening and regeneration.
Following the great response to the previous edition, we’re keeping the same format, starting on Friday at 2:30 p.m., so that you can fully immerse yourself in the experience as soon as you arrive.
Two teachers, two complementary sensibilities, to guide you towards a deep re-centering, in an authentic natural setting.
Your Retreat Weekend
Each day is structured around complementary highlights:
- Long Yang practices guided by Estelle Yoga:
meditation, pranayama, Hatha flow, relaxation and visualization
- Thematic workshops to explore certain approaches in depth
- Slow, regenerating Yin practices with Laurence Nest:
Yin yoga, restorative yoga, yoga nidra, myofascial self-massage, sound baths
- 🍽️ Home-cooked, plant-based, seasonal cuisine
- 🌿 Free time to recharge your batteries at your own pace: rest, nature, gentle or dynamic activities
Where is the Retreat Held?
LaPension Beau-Site
Located in the village of Chemin, above Martigny, Pension Beau-Site overlooks the Rhône and Dranse valleys.
This place steeped in history seduced us from the very first visit: characterful architecture, generous light, warm wood, and verandas opening onto a soothing alpine panorama.
