About the venue- this a family run guest house, not a purpose built yoga venue.

Casa Benedetto is situated in a cobbled side street in charming Succhivo, a small village. It is close to famous St’Angelo with its picturesque narrow streets and lanes.

It is also close to the Thermal Gardens (5 – 10 minutes walk) where you can relax in the hot thermal springs and have beauty treatments and massages.

Casa Benedetto has a small garden with kiwi vines, flowers and lemon trees. To one side is a small vineyard. The upstairs terrace looks out across the roof-tops to the sea

Five minutes walk downhill is the small beach ‘Cava Grado’. Like the majority of beaches on the island it is at the bottom of the cliff, with steps leading down. Please talk to us if you have mobility issues.

All bedrooms are en-suite

There are six rooms each with a double bed – sold as single rooms unless requested by a couple.

and three rooms with both a double bed and a single bed – normally sold as shared rooms.

Three rooms have air conditioning available at 6 euros a day (payable locally) they are the two rooms at the top of the building (both with a double and a single bed) and the room next door to the teacher’s room in the hotel alley.

Food is simple, home cooked and vegetarian. Dinner is normally a salad/soup followed by risotto/pasta and then a vegetarian dish. The vegetables and salad are grown on the owners small-holding nearby.

If you have a special diet please talk to us before booking as these can be difficult to cater for because items we are used to in the UK are not always easily available. We may ask you take some items with you, or suggest an alternative venue. A fish option can be offered on request.

Yoga

Noemi’s teaching is deeply influenced by traditional Hatha Yoga and Krinamachary’s tradition of Ashatanga and Vinyasa Krama. Noemi teaches a modality of Vinyasa Flow known as Prana Vinyasa (Shiva Rea) which combines elements of all the above and also teaches Viniyoga and Restorative.

Yoga will take place twice a day, 7 am and 6 pm. Morning practice will consist of Solar (dynamic) Vinyasa, pranayama and brief meditation to leave you uplifted through the rest of the day.

Evening practice will be Lunar (slow flow, classic Hatha Yoga postures and restorative) pranayama, meditation chanting and Sahaja prana flow (spontaneous flow meditation) to allow you to deepen, restore and nourish yourself.

A beautiful opportunity to immerse yourself into the practice of Vinyasa and traditional Hatha Yoga tuning into the rhythms of nature.

The open yoga shala overlooks the pomegranate field and has 25 mats and props. The shade provided by the bamboo screening in both yoga shalas allows the air to circulate whilst keeping out the heat of the sun.

Practice will be open for all levels and modifications / adaptations will be offered accordingly.
