Ti Amo Tuscany: A Soulful Yoga Retreat in the Heart of Italy

I still remember the first time I went to take a class at Mimi Yoga. I was already an experienced yogi—one who needed her mat to be more than a workout. Yoga was my therapy, my steam valve, my sanctuary. So yes, I had high standards. I was curious about this new studio and craving something that could challenge me physically and help me breathe again.

My first class was with Ewa. I remember thinking, Oh, this is good. Her sequencing was thoughtful, the flow felt intuitive, but what really struck me was the way she brought me back to my breath. The asana was beautiful, but I was breathinglisteningconnecting. I didn’t want the class to end. I knew I’d found someone special.

That same week, I took a class with Janet—because let’s be real, I was trying to vet the whole studio. I needed consistency, and I wanted to know that every instructor brought their A-game. Her class was hot, Baptiste-style, and physically it was everything I craved. But then—she started chanting. And I thought, wait… is she secretly a recording artist? Her voice was so soulful, so clear, so moving. She cracked me open in the most unexpected way.

Fast forward more than two years later, and I can tell you: these two women aren’t just brilliant instructors—they’ve become dear friends, trusted collaborators, and women I admire deeply. I’ve practiced with them religiously, shared stories, swapped DMs, followed each other’s journeys. And when I launched Sol Kiss Escapes with the dream of curating soulful, luxurious retreats, I told Ewa. Wouldn’t you know it—her next retreat was forming, and she invited me to help bring their vision to life.

Which brings us to Ti Amo Tuscany.

What is Ti Amo Tuscany?

It’s a yoga retreat, yes—but more than that, it’s an intentional pause. A sacred exhale. A chance to come home to yourself, in a setting so beautiful it almost feels unreal.

Hosted in a stunning private villa just outside of Lucca, this retreat is for anyone who are ready to slow down, soften up, and stretch—on and off the mat. The name, Ti Amo Tuscany, says it all: a love letter to yourself, to the land, and to the practice.

Meet Your Guides: Ewa & Janet

If you’ve never practiced with Ewa and Janet, you’re in for something special. These two instructors are the soul of Mimi Yoga, a Miami-based studio with a fiercely loyal community, thanks to the powerful way they guide their students.

  • Ewa Josefsson is grounding and graceful. Her classes help you slow down, tune in, and remember that your breath is your superpower. She’ll hold space for whatever you bring, and somehow make you feel stronger and softer at the same time.
  • Janet Isabelli is fire and heart. She’ll challenge you in the best way physically, but it’s her voice—her singing, her chanting—that opens something deeper. Her classes are like soul medicine. I’ve felt it myself, many times.

Together, they’ve created a retreat experience rooted in connection, authenticity, and love.

Why Tuscany? Why This Villa?

When we found the villa outside Lucca, we knew instantly—this is it. The retreat had found its home.

Imagine:

  • Morning practice as the sun rises over the hills
  • Long, lingering meals made with local ingredients
  • Olive groves, vineyards, and views for days
  • A saltwater pool, lounging under the trees, and plenty of space to simply be

There’s something magical about Tuscany—it slows you down. It makes beauty feel easy. And it’s the perfect backdrop for a retreat that’s meant to be both grounding and luxurious.

What You’ll Experience

This retreat is built with intention—every breath, every meal, every moment.

You can expect:

  • Twice-daily yoga (vinyasa, meditation, restorative practices)
  • Workshops that invite reflection and growth
  • Local excursions for a taste of Tuscan culture
  • Time to rest, journal, swim, nap, sip wine… and just be

Whether you’re craving connection, expansion, or simply time to tune out the noise—this space is designed to hold you.

A Personal Note From Me

When I launched Sol Kiss Escapes just a year ago, I knew I wanted to create more than just trips—I wanted to design experiences that felt deeply personal, soulful, and restorative. This retreat is exactly that.

To be collaborating with Ewa and Janet—two teachers who have shaped my own yoga journey so profoundly—is such a full-circle moment. What started as me stepping into their classes, just hoping to catch my breath, has evolved into something really special. And now, we get to bring that energy to one of the most beautiful corners of the world.

This retreat isn’t just for seasoned yogis or a specific type of traveler. We’ve designed it to be inclusive, welcoming, and transformative—whether you’re solo, traveling with a partner, or just in need of a reset that includes connection, movement, and seriously good food and wine.

I can’t wait to see what unfolds in Tuscany—for you, for all of us.
