Join us to celebrate the Spring Equinox 🌞 with an evening of movement, stillness, heat, and nourishment at Hot & Bothy Community Sauna.
Tickets now available at links in our bio & under ‘Special Events’ on our website.
What is Ecstatic Dance?
Ecstatic dance is a conscious and sober movement practice where you are encouraged to let go and express yourself through your movement, guided by Anthony through a journey of music. The idea is to let the music and the sounds move you.
What is a Sound Bath?
A sound bath is a meditative experience immersed in the live vibrations and frequencies of various instruments. Led by Eniko, the main instruments used in your experience will be Tibetan singing bowls. The vibrations are deeply restorative for the physical and mental-emotional body, helping to shift stress and tension and bring a sense of calm and quiet - guiding you into a deeply meditative state between wakefulness and sleep.
Afterwards, we transition into the warmth of the wood-fired saunas. The heat invites a deeper release physically and emotionally - offering space to soften, sweat, and integrate the journey of the evening within a held, communal setting.
We’ll close our celebration of light gathered by the open fire with nourishing daal prepared by @thedaaler - heartwarming, grounding food shared in good company.
As we gather around the Spring Equinox - a moment of balance between light and dark - this evening offers a space to reset and renew. A time to shed the heaviness of winter, awaken the body, and welcome the energy of the season ahead.
We can’t wait for this, it will be an evening to remember! 🌞

👋 Hi, I’m Anthony, a holistic physiotherapist and co-faciliator of the Sicily yoga retreat!
🌊 I am an Australian with roots in Calabria (a stone's throw from Sicily) so this retreat is a very special opportunity for me. I am very excited to bring my passion for movement, nature and connection together with the culture and land through food, language and adventures!
☀️I have a Bachelor of Physiotherapy from the University of South Australia. I really enjoyed my physio sessions as a semi injured teenager and quickly grew a passion and inspiration for helping others in a similar way.
🧘My journey of practicing Ashtanga yoga only began recently and has been incredibly beneficial for my overall wellbeing, body awareness, movement quality and focus. I am really excited to create an experience that brings all of this together- through the lens of a physiotherapist, yoga practitioner and day-today movement geek.
💥 I also love to DJ and dance, any outdoor adventures, thought provoking books and spending time in the sea or the sauna to help the body recover and feel energised to do what I love!
Sun, sea, adventure and yoga. Just a little taste of what to expect ☀️🌊
From partner yoga to individual meditation and 1:1 physiotherapy sessions. Whether you’re flying solo or bringing a friend, you’ll find movement, connection and an amazing group of likeminded people on our Sicily yoga retreat.
All levels are welcome- come as you are ✨
Sicily Yoga Retreat
24 Sept - 1 Oct 2025
Letojanni, Sicily
In the coming weeks we will share more information about our retreat offerings ✨
This week we share details about our planned group sessions and the importance of practicing as a group 🫂
Why do we practice in a group?
We practice in a group setting because there is something very special about sharing the experience of practice. Being in community helps us show up for ourselves and this retreat is all about that shared experience! 💕
The yoga retreat involves daily assisted yoga Asana in vinyasa and yin styles, as well as pranayama (breathwork) and meditation practice 🪷
Vinyasa is a dynamic style of practice. We move with the inhale and the exhale. Expect invigorating morning practice in this style. Yin yoga is a Chinese medicine inspired practice and focuses on deeper tissues (fascia, joints, tendons). We keep the muscles cool and do long, supported holds of postures.This will be our main evening practice. We will also facilitate a couple of sound journeys with Tibetan singing bowls that help move tensions and stress from the physical, mental-emotional and energetic body.
These group classes will also inform your 1:1 physio session and the workshop sessions that will be targeted to the needs of the group 🤓
Scroll through the carousel for a little summary on the benefits of practicing together as a group and about the breakdown of the retreat offerings 🌞
