Yoga and meditation workshops
Villa Rosy, Assisi
Focus on your duty, but do not concern yourself with the results. The fruits of your actions may not be your motive, and neither your attachment to inaction. In the path of Yoga, free from selfish desire, you may not be attracted to success nor distanced from failure. Yoga is the serene of the mind, a peace equal only to itself. […] Yoga is wisdom in the field of action.
From Bhagavad Gita – Il canto del Divino Signore ed. De Vecchi (2019)
In harmony with one of Corinna’s passions, 2017 saw the launch of our Yoga Retreats at Villa Rosy. The huge consensus from our guests has turned this initial trial experiment into one of the most sought-after events of our summers. Below you will find a selection of past events.

Our instructors:
CRISTINA BUCCI
Cristina trained as a dancer in the ‘Atelier di Teatro Danza’ at the Scuola Civica d’Arte Drammatica Paolo Grassi of Milan and she graduated in Philosophy. Cristina worked with various Italian contemporary dance companies and danced in prestigious Italian Opera Houses such as La Scala in Milan, Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza and Teatro Comunale in Florence. She trained at Anusara School to become a Hatha Yoga instructor. She has been teaching contemporary dance, Pilates and Yoga for several years. As an artist and a teacher Cristina is committed to investigating the poetic side of movement and by combining different styles she aims at revisiting the body as a metaphor for life.
VIRGINIA TUCCI
Always attracted by the transformative power of gesture and body expression, Virginia studied classical, modern and contemporary dance. A Pilates instructor for almost 20 years, Virginia’s discovery of Yoga reignited the ancient passion she had experienced through dance. For Virginia Yoga represents a huge opportunity to return to the origin, her own origin, where with effort, sweat, liberation and grace, step after step, breath after breath, she can find herself and loose herself again within her inner space.
MARIARITA SOMASCHINI
Graduated at the Satyananda Ahram school of Milan, Mariarita attended a three-year classical training programme following the path of Patanjali: yama, nyama, asana, pranayama, concentration and meditation techniques, as well as the in-depth study of the sacred texts. Mariarita spent a period in an ashram retreat aimed at enriching her knowledge and experience of the material world as well of the subtler world. As part of the yoga retreat Mariarita will lead you in the millenary practice of the Sun Salutation as described in the most ancient Hindu scriptures, the Veda, and she will guide you in the celebration of this ritual that has continued unchanged for millennia.
She is a Yoga Satyananda certified instructor and has taught courses of integral yoga, pranayama, concentration and meditation techniques, pregnancy and postnatal yoga, residential workshops. She is also a Riza naturopath, specialised in Ayurveda and ayurvedic massage.
MARIELLA CARBONE
Mariella is an art therapist and social theatre practitioner. Her creative workshops are based on different styles and use various artistic materials. Her method is mostly centred on the experiential and therapeutic asset brought by the techniques and languages of puppetry (masks, shadows, objects, modern puppets) which she applies, among others, to education and social settings.
