Fire Retreat

Our retreat home in southern Switzerland is an oasis of calm. It’s a place we felt in love with straight away. The house and all the surroundings have all the charm of the beautiful Ticino area. The retreat house is in a little village called Novaggio that faces the lake Lugano and the little lake of Ponte Tresa. Its geographical position makes it one of the most beautiful villages in southern Switzerland.

In this specific retreat, we will be offering classes, workshops and ceremonies that are rooted in the science of breathwork, traditional yoga, kundalini yoga, movement, meditation and herbalism. The beautiful nature surrounding our Ticino location will be enhancing our group experience. The fire element represents passion, purification as well as rejuvenation and will be the theme of the retreat.

We have been designing this retreat for a very small group of people. We will be curating a safe place for self exploration, stillness and healing.

keur Philosophy

The word keur refers to the french word coeur, which means heart. keur is all about creating an experience that will not leave your heart untouched. Aristotle once said, “educating the mind without educating the heart is not education at all.” We couldn't agree more. We live in a time where science and ancient wisdom meet. This is at the very core of our teachings and curations. We are choosing all teachings, workshops and ceremonies very carefully to stay close to the powerful keur philosophy to be providing a heart expanding group experience that will not only make us stronger mentally and physically, but offers an opportunity to be still, heal and enjoy. Together.

Please keep in mind that the daily schedule is subject to change.
