The Breath Retreat Switzerland
Berglodge37 Uri
August 13 - 16, 2026
In stillness, the breath shows you
who you are
High in the mountains, surrounded by silence and sky, this retreat is a story of clarity — carried by the breath.
You arrive.
Mountain air fills the lungs differently, crisp, pure, honest.
You breathe deeper without trying, and something inside you shifts.
You settle.
Morning practices slow your system into coherence.
The exhale lengthens. The mind quiets.
Presence becomes the natural state.
You explore.
Deep breathwork journeys, slow breathing, fast breathing, breath-holds, mountain walks, expanded breath awareness.
You feel how altitude sharpens perception and how breath reveals what is usually hidden.
You rise.
The breath becomes spacious, steady, strong.
Moments of stillness open into clarity, the kind that only comes when the world falls away and you meet yourself fully.
You return.
Integrated, grounded, and a little more aligned with the person you are becoming.
The mountains stay with you,
in every breath.
Experience the transformative power of breath, movement practices, and stillness, cultivating a more centered and resilient version of yourself in a nurturing and restorative setting.

During the retreat, we will be practicing in a stunning, arched space at the heart of the house, fully equipped with all necessary props and mats. Each morning starts in silence with diverse practices like breathwork, meditation and dynamic movement flows. Evenings focus on calming activities like breathwork and yin + restorative yoga. Our sessions, blending stillness and lively music, aim to help you connect with yourself and grow.
Each day offers a balance of group classes and plentiful personal time for you to engage in what feels right – whether it’s enjoying the beauty of Casa Corvo, finding peace in stillness, reading in the garden or exploring the surroundings on a hike.
We teach mainly in English, but German guidance is also available.

Our retreat home is located in southern Switzerland, where we spend cozy spring days surrounded by the natural beauty of the Ticino region.
Casa Corvo is situated in the charming, car-free old town of Novaggio, a small village surrounded by the gentle hills of the wild Malcantone valley. This will be our seventh retreat in this oasis of calm and we are excited to return in 2026 for another unique retreat experience. At Casa Corvo, we will be treated with delicious meals prepared by Chef Mike Barton, featuring local, seasonal, and organic ingredients. The culinary experiences at the retreat are always a highlight.
