Join Emily Burian from September 18–23, 2027, along Portugal’s beautiful Alentejo Coast for six days of discovery and adventure. A Certified Functional Nutritionist and experienced Yoga Instructor, Emily blends traditional yoga practices with modern science, creative movement, and a sense of play. Through daily practices and interactive workshops, we’ll explore the foundations of sustainable health, nervous system regulation, and the importance of curiosity, creativity, and joy in our everyday lives.
Our home for the week is nestled in the Portuguese countryside, surrounded by over 270 acres of nature, roaming horses, gardens, and peaceful trails winding through pine and cork oak forests. Beyond the property, we’ll explore the charming coastal villages of Vila Nova de Milfontes and Porto Covo, enjoy a laid-back picnic along the golden sands of Praia do Malhão, and visit a family-owned winery where generations of winemaking traditions continue with a focus on sustainability and respect for the land.
Designed for those seeking more than an escape, this retreat offers space to slow down, deepen your awareness, and find a balance between movement and rest, learning and exploration, and personal growth and simply having fun.
