DAY 4

Cooking class

We will continue with our empowering morning movement routine on day four, and then we begin to step into the Italian mindset as we learn how they grow and prepare their food. Italy is famous for its organic everything, from the produce you cook with to the wine you drink, and with our inclusive cooking class with an Italian chef, we can learn how we can take a piece of Tuscany back to our home kitchens. If all goes well, we will use the truffles we gathered earlier in the retreat to experience the true meaning of farm-to-table.

Fattoria Lavacchio

We do not remember days, we remember moments”, said the Italian writer Cesare Pavese. And so… let us savour moments of Chianti, of flavours, of joy, poetry and freedom! Eternal moments so fleeting that they leave their mark forever engraved upon our hearts !

At la Fattoria, we are forerunners in organic farming methods and producing sulfite-free wine.

We were also the first of the Chianti Rufina winegrowers to cultivate the land according to these principles. We have always strived to promote biodiversity and sustainable development. These principles are found in our motto: “Organic Lifestyle”.In keeping with this approach, Faye is turning her attention to the dictates of biodynamics, laid down by Rudolf Steiner, and is slowly beginning to apply their rules.

Outrun Gravity outdid itself at the Italy Retreat. OMG what an experience! From the yoga, to the hikes, to the wine tasting, it was all top notch. The location in Tuscany was to die for. The views from every angle was amazing. I couldn’t stop taking pictures. The most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen. Thanks Courtney and Elise for the trip of a lifetime!
