In a few words
Between sky and cliffs , this wellness retreat offers a soothing escape in the heart of the Hautes-Alpes , in an environment where every element invites you to let go. On the sunny heights of Orpierre , a typical southern village with peaceful streets and the benevolent shade of linden trees, you'll enjoy an inspiring natural setting to reconnect with yourself. Hatha and dynamic Yoga, meditation, and relaxation punctuate the days, in an atmosphere conducive to physical relaxation and mental clarity.
From the house, gentle walks lead you through hills fragrant with thyme and wild lavender , past sunlit cliffs , or even to the old village and its via ferrata . Nearby, the Méouge gorges offer their crystal-clear waters and smooth rocks for moments of swimming or contemplation.
Here, everything converges towards a single objective: slowing down, breathing, feeling . The stay becomes an invitation to reconnect with oneself , to savor the simple beauty of the elements and to rediscover a lasting serenity , carried by the quiet strength of the mountain.

Laetitia has been a dancer and dance teacher since 2004. Curious to explore the body in depth, she enriched her approach through various somatic practices, including yoga and the Feldenkrais Method. She then discovered Pilates and trained to become a certified instructor. In 2018, she traveled to Kerala, in southern India, the birthplace of Hatha yoga, where she completed the Teacher Training Course at the Sivananda school ashram and earned her yoga teacher certification. Today, Laetitia offers Hatha yoga sessions tailored to your needs and preferences, whether you prefer a gentle or more dynamic practice, depending on the energy and needs of the group.
I take care of all the logistics of the yoga and pilates stay: preparing delicious homemade brunches and snacks in a cheerful atmosphere, welcoming and attending to the participants, as well as providing advice and walks to discover Orpierre and its surroundings during their free time.
