This retreat is designed for anyone who wants to push themselves physically while also longing for deep relaxation. In her RnB Yoga sessions, Anais combines dynamic, flowing Vinyasa flows with smooth RnB sounds, creating a truly unique atmosphere on the mat. The yoga sessions are as powerful as a full-body workout, with a strong focus on breath and a natural rhythm between activity and release. Variations of each pose are always offered, making the sessions suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners alike.
Alongside the physical practice, you will learn techniques such as shaking meditation, body scan, guided meditation, and tapping therapy (EFT), helping you to become more aware of your body and to better process thoughts and emotions.
In addition, you will enjoy breakfast and dinner at Luna Restaurant, a winery tour with wine tasting, and a pizza evening.
RnB Yoga
RnB Yoga is a modern Vinyasa style that combines movement, breath, and music, creating a new and more accessible approach to the practice. Many people need physical movement first to release tension before the mind can relax. This practice is designed exactly for that: through flowing movement, conscious breathing, and the support of music, you are guided more easily into a state of calm and clarity.
The retreat will be held in German.

Included Services
Anais has been teaching Power Yoga with R&B music in Munich for several years. She combines her favorite R&B tracks with challenging asanas, a unique approach that, to her own surprise, has been very popular. Originally from the hospitality industry, Anais studied Tourism and Travel Management and worked in hotel management in Munich before transitioning fully into yoga instruction. In addition to Power Yoga, Anais offers other classes such as Vinyasa and Yin Yoga combined with Yoga Nidra, a guided mindfulness technique and meditation.
Elemental Rest offers you a pause in an elegant, nature-inspired setting and invites you to immerse yourself in the world of Chinese Medicine, the Five Elements and Qi-based yoga. Four days to digest what has been and to surrender to what is yet to come. This retreat creates space away from the busyness of everyday life and gently guides you back to the quiet wisdom within.
After the dark winter months and at the beginning of spring, this retreat explores the balance between Being and Doing, woven into the theme Heaven on Earth. In Chinese Medicine and Taoist philosophy, humans stand between Heaven and Earth and are invited to choose in every moment: Do I act - or do I simply be? Do I think my decisions - or do I feel them?
Throughout the retreat, rituals, movement practices and Chinese self-care workshops support you in returning to your natural rhythm. You will relearn how to tune in, trust your inner wisdom and act from a grounded, clear intention. This is your invitation to come home to yourself nourished, spacious, clear and renewed.
The retreat will be held in english.
