Movement, play
& dolce vita

A week of please and pasta, movement and meditation in Italy.
Join me in June 2024 for a movement retreat and an Italian cooking class.

Sunday, 23rd June, to Friday, 28th June 2024 (EN/DE)

Italy, Emilia-Romagna, close to Bologna

Katharina Dodel

We’ll come together in a wonderful place in the midst of nature of Emilia-Romagna (close to Bologna). I’ve chosen this place because it has stunning views, super good food, friendly atmosphere and owners and you can get there by train (Berlin - Munich - Bologna).

    • Morning Softness Practices (including breathing, meditating, lubricating the joints)

    • vegetarian Brunch

    • Free time for hiking, swimming, resting, reading, nothingness

    • Italian cooking class with Stefania (her husband Marco is supporting us with knowledge about wine)

    • alternately Movement Play or Handstand or Slow Yoga Flow

    • Dinner under the stars

  • I looked for suitable accommodations in Italy for a long time. I really wanted a place with the certain spirit. One that’s immediately saying and truly meaning „Welcome“. I virtually visited many options in Italy, but this place got my heart right from the beginning. Tiger and me then have visited the place in September – the way to get there is really beautiful, the place itself and the hosts are wonderful.

    Our venue is located in the Appenines that divide Tuscany from Emilia Romagna. The road to there is already pretty amazing, the view up there stunning. To get there you can either book a flight to Bologna or go by Flixbus (around 14h) or by (night) train (Berlin - Munich - Bologna, around 13h). Or you do a roadtrip :). To get to Bologna to our location (around 1,5h, with a cappuccino break) the best is to get a rental car and share it with other participants. There is also a public bus driving from Bologna to there – this might take a while.

How to book?

This will be an absolute movement fiesta together. My intention is to gather people who practice with me at this amazing space to have a nourishing, relaxing and at the same time energizing and recharging time together.

I’m happy to welcome you in Italy.
