Yoga & Nature
Nourishment . Connection . Nature and Community
A deep dive in nature and connection to nourish the body, mind and soul.
Yoga Gathering at the high-energized EcoVillageSanctuary
25-27 September 2026, Bordei, Switzerland
A weekend designed to awaken the deep nourishment that arises when body, mind, and spirit are aligned.
We rekindle the inspiration to care for ourselves and our whole Beings — not only physically and mentally, but also through ancient practices, nature connection and rituals that energize our lives and support a more vibrant, conscious way of being as well as a deeper and more joyful steadiness of self-connection.
A Sacred Invitation
We are filled with joy to invite you to a late summer weekend immersion
in the high-energised nature of Bordei.
Bordei is a place where the energy of the land, the wisdom of nature,
and our shared group intention come together to create a powerful field for awakening.
In this sacred space, we don’t just restore — we expand.
Beatrice, Renée & Stanislav
The Sarva OM Community
Lovingly called SOM Circle, our Community is an evolving circle of dedicate seekers and practitioners who meet for immersive weekends of practice, inner exploration, nature immersion and connection in Oneness.
Our gatherings are a living container to nurture our energy, deepen our connection, and keep our practice vibrant — together.
More than a retreat, we intend them as a way of being, to live life fully, inviting wisdom, grace and joy.
A WEEKEND GATHERING TO NOURISH AND CONNECT
In the context of our weekend, our shared practices will be enhanced by the energy of the group, the sacred space we will create. Beyond the practices, the weekend offers the chance to connect deeply with nature and like-hearted people in an intimate, supportive space.
Guiding you through the weekend
Beatrice Iulini
Leading theacher of the weekend, Beatrice has over 30 years of abundant experience in wellness and spirituality. She has extensively studied the wisdom and practice of yoga and meditation with many leading teachers, deepening their own experience and finding her own style and truths. She lives in a dedicated and joyful way what she teaches and shares.
“Subtle body and energetic alignment remain the heart of my personal practice and the foundation of my offerings as a path of integration for spiritual growth anchored in practical and fulfilling life.” – Beatrice
Renée Schibler-Crowley
Renée has been a longtime yoga and pilates enthusiast as well as a lifelong mover in water, on snow, and in fields and forests. Sharing from her small home-based studio near Lake Zurich for over twenty years, she first found her way into yoga through movement. That path quickly deepened into a study of that which moves us, and how we live, breathe and meet ourselves on and off the mat.
“My aim is to allow students to find their breath, become present, and experience their inner stillness.” – Renée
Stanislav Iatsevich
Stanislav comes from a background in technology and analytical thinking, balanced by a lifelong passion for music. A yoga teacher sharing yoga with his office colleagues, he found in Mantra and Kirtan practice a deep connection to music of different cultures — and to the joy of uniting with people through chanting and sound.
“Mantras help us become quiet and stay alert and aware. They guide us to the realms where logic and words lose their strength. They have the power to connect us on a deeper level: to each other, to nature, to ourselves.” – Stanislav

““The river that flows in you also flows in me.”
— Kabir
A poetic reminder of the interconnectedness between all beings and the natural world, reflecting the unity that yoga seeks to cultivate.
We are going to stay at
EcoVillage Bordei
The Bordei EcoVillage is a mountain “sanctuary” designed for restorative stays and retreats, immersed in nature and in the regenerative power of beauty, simplicity, and authenticity.
In this majestic setting, we practice in one of two geodesic domes nestled in the heart of nature.
A beautiful wood-fired sauna by the river is available to guests. After a sauna session, you can refresh yourself by dipping into the cool river waters, flowing just behind the meadow where the sauna stands. Completely surrounded by forests and mountains, it’s a wonderful place to restore both body and mind.
The organic farm and gardens supply part of the produce for the outstanding vegetarian restaurant, Osteria Giardino Bordei, led by renowned chef Pietro Leemann.
Bordei is about a 45-minute drive from Locarno, and there is ample parking available.
