A 6-day journey into presence, nature, and conscious living in Tenerife, 1 - 7 November, 2026.

This retreat invites you to step away from the pace of everyday life and return to a more natural rhythm. Through movement, time in nature, nourishing food, and shared experiences, you are gently guided into rest, connection, and presence.

Created and held by Alice & Marco, this retreat is part of a growing project that will soon evolve into an association called ALMA.

Whether you feel called to slow down, recharge, or simply step out of your usual routine, this retreat offers a soft balance of movement, nature, and community. Through YogaQiFlow, massage, Qi Gong, time in nature, nourishing food, and meaningful connection, you are invited back into a grounded and natural way of being.

Come as you are. Leave feeling lighter, more connected, and deeply nourished.

A Gentle Introduction to Conscious Touch

During the retreat, you will be introduced to elements of the SOUL IN TOUCH approach in a simple and accessible way.

Rather than focusing on technique alone, the process begins with awareness — learning how to arrive, ground, and connect before offering touch. The quality of your presence shapes the experience you create.

Through guided sessions, you will explore:

how to center yourself and work from a place of awareness
the art of conscious, compassionate touch
simple Thai Yoga Bodywork techniques and assisted stretches
how to listen to the body and respond intuitively
basic principles of body mechanics for ease and sustainability

These sessions are designed as an introduction, offering the essence of the work without pressure or expectation.

Integrated into the Retreat Experience

Conscious touch is just one part of a wider retreat journey.

YogaQiFlow, Qi Gong, time in nature, nourishing food, and shared experiences all support you in slowing down, feeling more deeply, and reconnecting with yourself.

Instead of learning in isolation, everything is woven into the rhythm of the week, allowing space for integration, rest, and genuine connection.

Who is this retreat for?

This retreat is open to anyone who feels the need to slow down, reconnect, and step into a more natural rhythm of life.

It may resonate with you if you:

feel the need to pause, rest, and recharge
are drawn to movement, nature, and holistic practices
wish to reconnect with your body and inner balance
are curious to experience conscious touch in a gentle and accessible way

No experience needed

You do not need any prior experience to join. Come as you are — with curiosity, openness, and a willingness to slow down.

For those with experience

If you already work in yoga, bodywork, or other holistic fields, this retreat offers a chance to step out of “doing” and return to feeling.

Rather than adding more techniques, it invites you to deepen your presence, sensitivity, and connection — qualities that naturally enrich your work.

A note on learning and integration

This retreat is primarily an experience: a space to reconnect, slow down, and explore holistic practices in a natural and accessible way.

You will be introduced to elements of the SOUL IN TOUCH approach not as a formal training, but as an invitation to experience conscious touch through presence and connection.

For those already working in holistic fields, the retreat can offer inspiration and fresh perspectives to gently bring into your own practice.

Be in community

We are not meant to do life alone.

Throughout the retreat, you will experience the beauty of community — sharing movement, meals, conversations, and moments of stillness.

A space where you can feel supported, seen, and connected, just as you are.

Casa el Riego, Tenerife, Spain

Casa rural el Riego is a 120-year-old house on an ecological finca on the eastern side of Tenerife, an island that remains authentic and very calm.

The house offers 6 guestrooms with a private bathroom each, as well as a 4x12 meter salt-water pool for shared use, with splendid views of the mountains and the sea.

The finca and house are maintained in a sustainable and ecological way. We eat what we find in our gardens (and other ecological gardens), freshly prepared and with love.
