Question 1

Can you teach yoga at my hotel, villa, or Airbnb?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I offer private and group yoga sessions at your accommodation throughout Tuscany, including Pisa, Lucca, Versilia, and the surrounding areas. I bring all necessary equipment — yoga mats, blocks, and straps — so you just need to provide a quiet space, whether it's a terrace, garden, living room, or poolside.

Question 2

What styles of yoga do you teach?

Accepted Answer

I teach four main styles: Vinyasa (flowing sequences synchronized with breath), Hatha (gentle, foundational practice with longer holds), Ashtanga (dynamic, structured sequences for those seeking challenge), and Yoga Nidra (guided deep relaxation, perfect for recovery or stress relief). I'll recommend the best style based on your experience level and what you're looking for.

Question 3

Do I need yoga experience to book a session?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! I welcome complete beginners and experienced practitioners alike. Each session is tailored to your level, whether you've never stepped on a yoga mat or have years of practice. I'll guide you through every pose with clear instructions and modifications as needed.

Question 4

What languages do you teach in?

Accepted Answer

I teach fluently in Italian, English, and Spanish. I can easily accommodate groups with mixed language preferences, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and can follow along during the practice.

Question 5

How far in advance should I book?

Accepted Answer

I recommend booking at least 48-72 hours in advance to ensure availability, especially during peak tourist season (May-October). However, I understand travel plans can be spontaneous — feel free to reach out even for last-minute requests, and I'll do my best to accommodate you.

Question 6

What should I wear and bring to a yoga session?

Accepted Answer

Wear comfortable, stretchy clothing that allows you to move freely. I provide all the equipment (mats, blocks, straps), so you don't need to bring anything. Just have some water nearby and avoid eating a heavy meal 1-2 hours before practice.

Question 7

What is the Yoga & Wine Experience?

Accepted Answer

It's a unique combination of a yoga session followed by a guided wine tasting. As a certified AIS sommelier and yoga instructor, I offer this special experience perfect for hen parties, milestone birthdays, or groups wanting something memorable. The yoga practice sets the mood, and then I guide you through a curated selection of Tuscan wines.

Question 8

What areas in Tuscany do you serve?

Accepted Answer

I'm based in San Giuliano Terme (near Pisa) and serve the greater Pisa area, Lucca, the entire Versilia coast (including Viareggio, Forte dei Marmi, and Pietrasanta), Livorno, and surrounding Tuscan countryside. For locations further afield, please contact me to discuss travel arrangements.

Question 9

What is your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

I understand travel plans change. Cancellations made more than 24 hours before your scheduled session receive a full refund. For cancellations within 24 hours, I ask for 50% of the session fee. No-shows are charged the full amount. Rescheduling is always free when possible.

Question 10

How do I pay for a session?

Accepted Answer

I accept cash (Euros), bank transfer, and major credit cards. Payment is typically made after the session. For group bookings or retreats, I may request a deposit in advance to secure your booking.
