Spring Awakening Yoga Retreat
- May 1 - 8
- whole day program
- from 1850 euro
- in English
On the southern coast of Sardinia, during the awakening energy of Spring, we invite you to a retreat designed to cleanse, reset, and reconnect.
Spring is nature’s season of renewal — a time when the body instinctively seeks lightness, movement, and change after the heaviness of winter. As the days grow warmer and brighter, it becomes the perfect moment to release old patterns, create space for new intentions, and reconnect with yourself more consciously.
Your reset begins here — a gentle detox for body, mind and emotions
Mornings start in gentle silence, creating space to settle, soften, and arrive fully in the day.
We then move into strong, embodied Hatha yoga — an energizing and cleansing practice designed to awaken the body, stimulate circulation and digestion, releasing both physical and emotional tension.
Throughout the week, Heidi integrates breathwork and practical breathing techniques to support the nervous system and offer simple tools you can take home into daily life.
Between practices, gather at the sea-view veranda restaurant for colorful vegetarian meals made with fresh seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. Each meal is thoughtfully designed to support the body’s natural detoxification processes while leaving you nourished, satisfied, and energized. These are slow moments shared in the sun, with space to pause, connect, and simply be.
Afternoons are yours to enjoy at your own pace. Explore the stunning Sardinian surroundings as spring comes into bloom, discover nearby pristine beaches, hike panoramic hills, unwind in the sauna or steam baths, or simply rest and embrace the slower rhythm of retreat life.
In the evenings, Kate guides a deeply restorative Yin practice focused on the body’s organs and meridian lines - supporting emotional awareness, release, nervous system regulation, and energetic balance. This grounding practice beautifully complements the more dynamic morning sessions.

Retreat host

Heidi Ulrich
Heidi is a Swiss-Australian yoga teacher, former professional ballet dancer, and co-founder of Yoga Moves Nyon, established in 2012. With over 16 years of yoga teaching experience, Heidi’s approach is rooted in our innate wisdom of the body and mindful awareness. She teaches from an authentic and intuitive place, offering clear guidance while creating space for students to explore their practice without feeling overwhelmed by too much instruction. Her classes blend functional mobility, strength, and mindful awareness, and include Vinyasa, Hot Yoga, Hatha and Yin Yoga. She is also a teacher trainer, having led three Hot Yoga teacher trainings. Influenced by the teachings of Jimmy Barkan, Max Strom, Josh Summers, Bernie Clark and Jason Crandell, her classes are designed to help students build intention, curiosity, resilience, and the skills to find balance and more joy in each moment.

Kate Novel Jaquier
My journey into Yin Yoga began with encouragement from Heidi, learning with Josh Summers, and has since deepened my perspective on healing, resilience, and self-awareness. Alongside my work as a psychosocial counselor at the Swiss invalidity insurance, I have been teaching yoga, warm yoga, and yin yoga since 2017 at Yoga Moves Nyon. I hold this work close to my heart as a path toward prevention and well-being. I create each class with care around a theme, supported by selected scents and music, to offer a space where you can pause, breathe and reconnect. Through Yin Yoga, we gently guide the body into a restorative state where healing can begin. Long-held poses, conscious breathing, and subtle acupressure points may support relaxation, energy flow, and the body’s natural cleansing processes. The practice can also invite emotional release, mental clarity, and renewed vitality. Rather than forcing, we slow down, listen and allow the body to restore itself.

Retreat into nature
Situated in a small private valley with stunning views over the nearby azure blue Mediterranean Sea and surrounding mountains. Enjoy true silence, clean air and starry nights to recharge from your busy daily life. Discover the walking trails around the property and the panoramic meditation spots uphill.

Silent Retreat
Apr 3 - 10•private/shared room•from € 980
Experience the power of silence during this transformational retreat. A unique opportunity to reduce the continuous flow of thoughts, to calm your mind and to give space to your inner voice. This retreat is a combination of meditations, yoga, breath work and self-knowledge activities.
Perfect for all levels: it’s not necessary that you practiced meditation, yoga or silence before. Instructions are in English.
During this retreat you will discover what really matters for you in life. If we take the step into silence, life rewards us with insights and we can let go of things that no longer serve us. You will receive practical guidelines on how to maintain a soul state of being when returning to your daily life.
The silence will be from Sunday lunch until Friday lunch. During the week, there are yoga sessions, self-knowledge activities, a sound healing, guided meditations, a beach session and more. Many participants in our Silent Retreats experience the silence for the first time. It’s not a vipassana retreat with long meditations. It’s gentle and recharging: all go home with new inspiration and insights.
To benefit the most of the silence, it's strongly recommended to hand in your phone. Although it seems almost impossible nowadays to survive without phone for a few days, all former participants described being offline as a profound and precious gift.
The supporting activities will help you to really connect with your body again and to increase your understanding of what's limiting your joy and fulfillment in life. This retreat is above all a deep recharge and inner exploration.
Soul Valley offers magical surroundings and facilities. You will be staying in a boutique room with en-suite bathroom. There is lots of free time to enjoy the sea view pool, delicious healthy food, and cleanse your body in the sauna and steam bath. You will be amazed by the surrounding hills, starry nights and ancient Sardinian vibe.
If you travel solo, you have two options:
- share a twin room with two separate single beds with another participant of your gender, price 980 euro
- a private single room with queen-size bed, price 1.400 euro
If you book together with someone else, it's not possible to share a room together. You will both receive a private single room with queen-size bed for a reduced price of 1.200 euro per person or you can share a room with another participant (980 euro). We do this because staying in silence in the room with a relative, friend or partner is almost impossible, and breaking the silence would reduce your individual journey significantly.
Everything is included: seven nights in a boutique room with supersized beds and en-suite bathroom, incredible food, drinks (we serve no alcohol during the retreat) and access to the wellness and sea-view pool.
This retreat takes also place from November 14 - 21, 2026.

Slow Down Yoga Retreat
May 29 - Jun 5•boutique room•from € 1760
Slow down. Breathe deep. Move a little more gently. And give yourself permission to simply be. This retreat is an invitation to step out of the rush of everyday life and into a slower, softer rhythm. A week to reconnect with your body, soften the mind and create space for the things that often get pushed to the bottom of the list: rest, stillness, nature, pleasure and simply enjoying the moment.
Our practices will focus on slowing down and tuning in. Expect strong but gentle yoga, yin, restorative movement, breath work and meditation, with enough variety to keep your energy flowing while never feeling like another thing you have to do.
We’ll start our mornings slowly, with a strong and grounding practice, designed to wake up the body without rushing it into the day. After breakfast we have a little break and then we’ll come together for gentle activities that invite connection and presence. Think nature walks, journaling, breath work, meditation, ceremony, or creative practices.
After a deliciously nourishing lunch, there’s space for anything you feel at that moment. This is your time to rest, explore the island’s beautiful beaches or indulge in some serious “dolce far niente”.
As the day comes to a close, we’ll return to the mat for a deeply soothing evening practice. Expect slower movement, longer holds and plenty of stillness. The intention for these practices is to leave you feeling grounded, relaxed and deliciously sleepy.
If you travel solo, you have two options:
- share a twin room with two separate single beds with another participant of your gender, price 1.760 euro
- a private single room with queen-size bed, price 2.200 euro
If you come together with someone else, you can choose between:
- double room with king-size bed, price 1.760 euro per person
- twin room with two separate single beds, price 1.760 euro per person

Everything is included: seven nights in a boutique room with supersized beds and en-suite bathroom, incredible food, drinks (we serve no alcohol during the retreat) and access to the wellness and sea-view pool.
