About the Practices

Pilates, Yin Yoga, meditation and breath work
The core of our retreat is built upon the practices of Yin Yoga and Pilates, meditation, and breath work. I have spent over 25 years exploring, learning, and integrating many practices and exercise modalities.
These key modalities I believe complement each other and serve us on many levels. They allow inner exploration; cultivating within us a set of tools to which we can turn when we need peace, restoration, strength, and vitality. Fundamentally we are nurturing a strong and robust base physically, mentally, and emotionally, and energetically.

I will draw upon Traditional Chinese Medicine, Myo-Fascial release, emotional well-being with flower essences and aromatherapy, Reiki and energy work. Integrating our awareness of our health and well-being physically, mentally, and emotionally is, I believe, the greatest gift we can give ourselves.

When you retreat with me, I will empower you; expanding your knowledge, awareness, and capacity to resourcefully nurture your Self.

Pilates cultivates physical strength, core stability and flexibility. Pilates addresses postural issues by working to correct muscular imbalances and heightens our level of body awareness.

Yin yoga is a quiet, still and grounding practice. It can be deeply challenging but will not drain or deplete you. It generates a profound sense of well-being as it reminds us to connect to ourselves; it can facilitate deep release of physical, mental, and emotional tension.

About Maison 10

Maison 10 is a beautiful French farmhouse renovated by Sarah and Simon Post who set about creating a purpose-built retreat space and home-from-home. Sarah and Simon reside at Maison 10 for part of the summer and the house has Sarah’s signature mix of modern and vintage. It is light and spacious.
Maison 10 front of the house
The main house has 6 rooms set up to share either as twin rooms or super kings; four bedrooms are en-suite whilst two have a basin in the room and share a bathroom. Our classes are held in the modern, glass fronted yoga Shala which overlooks the heated swimming pool and valley. This facilitates a practice with views of vineyards, orchards, olive groves and the wild, mountainous landscape of La Drome Provençale. Maison 10 has a tranquil massage treatment space, and a local masseuse can provide treatments.
It is a short walk into Nyon which has a weekly market, cafes, and boutique shops. The historic market town is famous for its Olive oil, Lavender, and vineyards. Local tours include cycling (electric or pedal bikes), hikes and wine tasting.

For our June retreat I am collaborating with chef Caroline Chilton-Bates.
