Yoga and Sound Retreat in Salento, Puglia
18th - 23rd September 2025 - 14 places available
Join me in the sun-drenched hills of Salento, Puglia for a soul-nourishing yoga and sound retreat where deep relaxation, revitalising movement, delicious food, and the magic of southern Italy come together to leave you feeling stronger, lighter, and more alive.
Retreat Location
In the heart of Salento, Masseria Torre Luciana is much more than a simple retreat center: it is a place born from the vision of the Sew Handpan group, which imagined a space in which Apulian culture, music and holistic well-being come together to create a unique experience.
Every element of the farmhouse reflects this vision: from the authentic beauty of the traditional Salento architecture, to the serenity of the spaces designed for meditation and relaxation, up to the constant presence of music, with the magical sound of the Handpan that accompanies every moment.
Designed to offer an unparalleled experience of tranquility and well-being, our farmhouse is the ideal place for those seeking a regenerating and inspiring retreat. Here, tradition meets innovation, creativity meets nature, and every guest is invited to rediscover joy in the present.

The Accommodation
Nestled in the heart of Salento’s breathtaking countryside, Masseria Torre Luciana offers a unique stay where tradition meets modern comfort. Immersed in the region’s enchanting landscapes, our retreat centre has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its historical charm while seamlessly integrating contemporary touches to ensure an unforgettable experience. Guests can choose between the privacy of their own room with a private bathroom, or opt to share — with rooms easily configured as comfortable doubles, perfect for friends or travel companions.
SPA & Swimming Pool
The retreat centre also features exceptional facilities, including a serene spa carved into a natural cave — a truly one-of-a-kind sanctuary where time slows down and deep relaxation begins. Just steps away, a panoramic swimming pool invites you to unwind under the Salento sun, surrounded by tranquil views and the gentle rhythm of the southern Italian landscape.
The Food
Each day of the retreat includes a nourishing brunch, thoughtfully prepared with locally sourced and organically grown ingredients — celebrating the very best of Italian cuisine. Expect vibrant seasonal produce, homemade pasta, fresh olive oil, and an array of delicious options to suit all dietary needs.
In the evenings, we’ll venture out to Lecce to dine at a curated selection of local restaurants, offering an unforgettable taste of southern Italy’s rich culinary heritage. From rustic trattorias to modern interpretations of classic dishes, every meal promises to be a beautiful, flavour-filled experience you’ll remember long after the retreat ends.
Classes & Workshops
Each day begins with a revitalizing morning yoga class designed to help you relax, reset, and prepare your body and mind for the day ahead. These sessions gently stretch, detoxify, and build strength and mobility, leaving you feeling refreshed and balanced.
In the evenings, you’ll enjoy a thoughtfully curated workshop—ranging from deeply soothing sound baths that transport you to a blissful state of relaxation, to focused yoga workshops tailored to deepen your personal practice.
To enrich your experience even further, we also offer engaging Italian cooking classes where you can discover the rich culinary heritage of Salento and bring a taste of Italy back home. Every element of the schedule is crafted to nurture your well-being, spark your curiosity, and create unforgettable memories.
Excursions & Activities
To complement your retreat experience, we offer a variety of optional excursions and activities tailored to your interests. Explore the charming city of Lecce, immerse yourself in the rich local culture, or discover traditional crafts like mozzarella-making. For the adventurous, there’s the thrill of horseback riding on the beach, or you can try your hand at an authentic Italian cooking class.
If you’re in the mood to dance, private dance lessons are also available. Whether you prefer to unwind peacefully at the villa or dive into the vibrant cultural heritage of the region, there’s something for everyone.
I have attached a brochure of all the available excursions for you to look through.
