Delicious meals made with love
Indulge in healthy, plant-based/vegetarian and organic food made with the freshest local ingredients
Lanzarote, with over its 200 volcanos, the vast ocean, sandy beaches and its incredible palette of colours, will be hosting us for this retreat.
This volcanic land is what will inspire our practices and guide us in our exploration.
You will be able to re-ignite your connection to your inner fire; explore where it wants to take you, re-awaken it if it’s dampened, tame it if it’s gotten out of hand.
Just like a volcano, you have a fire that burns deep into your belly. That is what drives you forward, your passions, your light, your determination.

Never practiced with me?
If you are a little worried about joining the retreat without knowing your teacher, that is totally understandable. So, if you are curious to see if you like my teaching style and my voice, you can click below to have access to a one hour vinyasa practice led by me. I hope you enjoy it!
The accommodation
Unwind in the lush gardens of Villa Amatista.
The Fire Within retreat will be hosted by Amatista, a beautiful villa nestled amongst vineyards and volcanoes in the picturesque heart of Lanzarote.
Eco-conscious and heart-centred, Amatista is the perfect venue for residential retreats. Designed as a place for relaxation and regeneration, the Villa, the apartments and the gardens are an oasis of light, tranquillity and healing. Amatista has six beautiful spaces, each totally unique, full of character, and furnished with love and a simple elegance. All the units have kitchens and most have private patios overlooking the gardens.
Villa Amatista has a solar-heated outdoor chlorine-free, salt water swimming pool and a spacious yoga studio with hardwood floor.
Your yoga teacher - Veronica:
In my yoga classes, all bodies and souls are welcome. I carefully design sequences that challenge the most experienced while allowing first time practitioners to understand the foundations of the practice and not be intimidated by it.
In this retreat our days will be framed by two yoga practices fusing movement with breath work and meditation: a morning vinyasa flow to awaken the body and a gentle evening practice (yin yoga, restorative or yoga Nidra) to prepare for the night.
The practices will be inspired by the volcanic land of Lanzarote and designed to especially contact the fire that lives deep within your belly, your power, your purpose and deepest calling.
Veronica Santini (RYT 500) has been teaching yoga internationally for about a decade. She is certified in Vinyasa yoga and Yin yoga and is specialised in Yoga for Female Health, Menopause Yoga and Pelvic Floor Yoga.
Her teaching style has been infused by amazing teachers (such as Janet Stone, Tiffany Cruishank, Shiva Rea, Leslie Howard and Petra Coveney) to whom she is very grateful.
Veronica firmly believes that each student needs to feel empowered to practice in a way that feels authentic and good to them. She is the guide for you to find your own ways to approach yoga. Her style, thoughtful and precise, always aims to be non-prescriptive, so that you can make each and every practice your own inner journey.
The food
A delicious feast
Ruth, La Cocinera Saludable, will be our chef for this retreat. She prepares her dishes with so much love and the results speak for themselves. All meals (brunch and dinner) will be vegan with some vegetarian options and mostly gluten free and always prepared with fresh and high quality products.
