"I participated in the “Hrdayam: The Heart of Healing Yoga Retreat” in April 2025 at Basaletto, during a period of personal change and challenge. Immersed in the Umbrian countryside and surrounded by people with different life experiences, yet united through the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram practice — which Viviane, Sandeep, and André teach from the heart — I found support in reconnecting with myself and moving forward into a new phase of life."

Five days of radiance, restoration, and inner unfolding.

Each morning unfolds with a mindful asana practice to awaken the body, followed by a nourishing breakfast shared in a relaxed setting. The rhythm continues with a gentle nature walk and focused study, intentionally curated to set a clear tone for the day.

Midday — Pause & Restore

After a delicious lunch, find space for rest, reflection, and personal integration. Choose to unwind by the serene outdoor pool, settle into a quiet corner for journaling, or explore what feels light or heavy as you release what no longer serves you.

Afternoon — Study & Connect

Chanting, guided studies, and satsang weave together as a sacred space for deepening understanding. Through sound, inquiry, and heartfelt dialogue, these sessions invite collective exploration of wisdom—ancient and alive in the present moment.

Evening — Unwind & Nourish

A rich, thoughtfully prepared dinner is shared in a relaxed, nourishing atmosphere. This offers a gentle close to the day and space to integrate the experiences and insights that have unfolded before you retreat for a restful night.

Schedule may adapt to group needs; flexibility is part of the experience.

Alessandra - Italy

The retreat was a transformative journey into peace. The immersion in nature is so profound that you truly become one with your surroundings, finding harmony in the woodland sounds, the colors of the sunset and even the rhythm of the rain. The teachings delivered with a rare blend of rigor and generosity that invites deep personal growth. Beyond the practice, the evenings and communal moments were filled with warmth and genuine connection.

Daniela - Italy

It was a truly special yoga retreat. Three teachers very different in background, path, and sensitivity, yet able to create a harmonious group where differences naturally integrate and support each other, with lightness. Viniyoga practices, breathwork, chanting, and reflections on philosophy created a deep atmosphere that never felt heavy. The farmhouse surrounded by nature, the silence, good food, and the authentic connections within the group made the experience deeply regenerating, human, and meaningful.

Anita - England

A dream-like, safe exploration of Self and Other, in a warm and inviting, nature-based setting with excellent, nourishing food and passionate teachers.

Adriana - Italy

E’ passato quasi un anno dal ritiro yoga a Basaletto, ma il ricordo di quell’esperienza è ancora vivo in me. In quell’occasione, persone diverse, alcune delle quali non si conoscevano neppure, sono state accomunate dal desiderio di approfondire il proprio rapporto con lo yoga e con loro stesse... Il risultato di questi giorni di ritiro ancora mi accompagna, in una crescente consapevolezza del mio corpo, della mia mente e delle loro possibilità.

Ana - Italy

Una immersione in un mondo condiviso di riflessione, yoga e connessione con il tutto. Attraverso una straordinaria organizzazione abbiamo vissuto un’esperienza che ci ha restituito vita, respiro e gioia. Ottimo cibo vegetariano. Grazie Viviane!🙏

The Practice

SAVYOGA’s sincere belief is that it’s important to work on the body, but one must not stay fixed endlessly with merely the physical practice of asanas. In fact, the teacher needs to expose the practitioner to a diverse range of subtler techniques of Ashtanga yoga.

In “Prana: Celebrating Energy,” we intend to take you on a dynamic five-day yoga journey to make you experience that through subtle work on breath and appropriate movement, it’s possible to experience freedom in the body and lightness of mind.
