Immersion
Five days of Rocket Yoga, focused workshops and island life in Favignana, Sicily.
Favignana, Italy
Practice deeper. Live the island.
Five days to step away from your usual routine and give your practice real time and space.
Every morning starts with Rocket Yoga. In the afternoons we slow down the pace and go into the details: technique, strength, transitions and everything that makes the practice your own.
Between sessions there is Favignana: time to swim, explore the island, rest and enjoy the Sicilian summer. Plus a cooking class, an apericena by the sea and plenty of time around the table.
Rocket. Workshops. Island days.
Intensity in the morning, details in the afternoon
Rocket Yoga
Five full Rocket practices to build strength, mobility, control and transitions. The part of the day that gets you sweating.
Focused workshops
Three workshops to break down the technique and understand what happens in your body, beyond the daily sequence.
Favignana
Swim, explore the island, rest. Then back to the table for good food and good company.
Dimora dell'Olivastro
An intimate boutique hotel surrounded by olive trees, Mediterranean nature and views of the sea. Every room has its own style and character, with Sicilian charm, comfort and privacy. A quiet place to slow down and make it your home for five days.
Favignana, the island that restores
Sea, light and stone. Favignana is more than a beautiful backdrop.
The clear light, the blue of the sea, the scent of the Mediterranean scrub and the slow rhythm of the island work together with the practice. You arrive, you slow down, and without really trying you find your balance again.
Every corner invites you to breathe deeper and let go a little. It's the kind of place where your body recovers from the work of the morning and your head gets some space.
A paradise if you love the sea
Transparent water, sea beds to explore and small coves where you can rest in total quiet. Some of the favourites:
- Cala Rossa
- Cala Azzurra
- Cala del Pozzo
- Bue Marino
- Preveto
- Cala Rotonda
The old tuff quarries
The island's landscape was carved by people and by time. The ancient tuff quarries form striking labyrinths of stone, perfect for meditating, taking photos or simply letting yourself be inspired. There is nothing quite like it.
A taste of Favignana
Food is a big part of this retreat. Every meal is vegetarian or vegan, made with seasonal and local ingredients.
Many of them come directly from Terre del Favonio, the farm connected to the Dimora, where vegetables, legumes, fruit, olive oil, grains and herbs are grown organically. From farm to table, simple and full of flavour.
Fresh ingredients. Sicilian flavours. Good company.
More than the mat
Workshops
More time to break down the details, ask questions and try things. Handstands, inversions, arm balances, transitions and technique.
Sicilian cooking class
We cook together with fresh ingredients, many straight from the garden, and discover local recipes and seasonal produce.
Apericena by the sea
A lunch or sunset apericena together: local food, a glass of wine, easy conversations and the sun going down over the island.

Caterina Raneri
I'm a 750+ hour RYT Vinyasa and Ashtanga teacher and a Rocket® Yoga mentor, with a degree in Exercise Science and a yoga studio in Italy.
After years as a competitive artistic gymnast I moved to yoga, bringing strength, control and movement awareness into my teaching.
My classes are dynamic, structured and practice oriented: we build strength, mobility and intelligent movement through progressive sequencing. Challenging, but sustainable. Working with the body, not against it.
