Art & Yoga Retreat in France

MONDAY, 30 JANUARY 2006

If you love yoga and painting, you can now combine them with the perfect retreat in the perfect setting: Giverny, France. The retreat location is less than an hour outside of Paris where some of the greatest painters lived, breathed and most importantly, painted. The retreat will be held April 27 through May 5. However, there is a special price for those who register early.

Moreover, the retreat package includes comfortable accommodations, French cuisine, a full day guided/independent tour of the museums of Paris and more. Also, professional artist Charles Wildbank will guide the artist in you while yogini Mary McGuire will be there to help painters connect to their muses. In addition, the yoga exercises are for all levels and include Kundalini, Vinyassa, Meditation and Dance.

Highlights include:
  • Access to Monet's Gardens and historic Baudy Hotel for painting and photography
  • Other access to historic painting landmarks of the Impressionists within and outside Giverny that we've researched and discovered for the artist
  • Comfortable accomodations in a large rustic home in the heart of Giverny (two participants per room, each room with private bathroom)
  • Discounts for bicycles
  • Daily buffet breakfast. Traditional French cuisine dinners with wine prepared by the host on 6 nights including farewell banquet (remaining 2 nights are at everyone's liberty so they can explore the surprises Paris and the Normandy villages have to offer!)
  • Our handpicked self-guided Tour Maps of Paris Museums, cafes and haunts of Monet and the great Impressionists
  • Instruction in art and yoga integration at all levels by artist Charles Wildbank and yogini Mary McGuire
  • Wildbank's exercises on quick meditation and relaxation in between schedules
  • Canvas, acrylic paints and mediums (bring your brushes, and those who wish to paint in oils may bring their own paints)
  • Healing and Integrative Body work available
Cost of the retreat is $2400 before Jan. 31 and $2600 between Feb. 1 and Feb. 28. After March 1, tuition will be $2800. Tuition is inclusive of lodging for 8 nights, daily breakfast, dinner meals and farewell banquet. A deposit of $500 is required for reservations. Tuition does not include airfare.
