Rooted in Nature: A Pilates and Yoga Retreat - For Women

August 25 - August 27, 2023

Lia Masciulli

In today's busy world, losing sight of who we are and how to care for ourselves can be easy. Join Pilates Master Trainer and Yoga Therapist Lia Masciulli for a unique opportunity to reconnect to your soul through movement, learn to rest in stillness, and explore self-expression. Over the course of three days, you'll return to your roots so you can come home to yourself with a sense of inner peace. Enroll today in this deeply restorative nature-based program—just for women.Imagine waking up to the calming sounds of nature, savoring healthy meals prepared just for you, and moving your body in a nourishing, supportive way while still having time in the day to connect with yourself. That's a glimpse into what you can expect in this women's retreat.Over the weekend, you'll be exposed to so much more than just Pilates; it's an integrative experience where you will:
  • Utilize various props that support and meet your individual needs through blended Pilates & yoga movement, mindfulness, and meditation.
    •
  • Eliminate muscular tension as well as mental and emotional stress.
    •
  • Experience deep peace through soothing self-care, relaxation, and self-expression techniques.
    •
  • Learn sequences that can increase breathing capacity and calm your nervous system.
    •
  • Strengthen the relationship you have with yourself.
The remote location of this retreat allows you to be secluded and surrounded by trees, mountains, and rivers as you dive into the weekend and your practice. Throughout the retreat, you'll be treated to healthy, comforting meals and have the option to indulge in a massage, explore the nature trails, or simply relax by the pool. By the end of the retreat, you'll return home feeling grounded with renewed energy, inspiration for the future, and a deeper connection to yourself and those around you.

I just returned from an over-night stay at the Menia Retreat Center.  During that time, I was very fortunate to have had four services at the beautiful Dewa Spa.All of them were amazing, but I really have to take a few minutes to write about Sarite Sanders who did Craniosacral Therapy and Nicole Bernhardt who provided Extended KuNye Massage.

Both of these women are gifted practitioners who clearly are dedicated to their healing modalities.  Sarite is not just a healer but a teacher–a very powerful combination for a true wellness practitioner. She even suggested movement exercises that I could do at home to help with an old injury–one I had not told her about, but that she “felt” as she worked on my body. Both of these women took time to explain what and why they were doing certain things and thus were able to create a very safe environment for healing. Thank you for a truly lovely experience.
