What people have to say
To take part in a 200 hours teacher training with Three Treasures Yoga was one of the best decisions in my life so far. The course was very well-balanced & complete with subjects like yoga philosophy, anatomy, asana study, pranayama, meditation, nutrition, music / mantra singing & healing techniques. The teachers Molly Cofman, Massimo Cantara & Wade Gotwals are experts in their field and all very helpful, lovely people with their hearts in the right place. The 2,5 hours yoga class each morning was one of my highlights, followed by Massimo's music sessions. This course has given me all the tools I need to start teaching yoga. I will never forget our teachers and my fellow students from all over the world and the great time we had at this beautiful place in Tuscany (Catabbio near Saturnia).

High Groves is a world class private country estate, as well as a stunning agricultural and wildlife preserve located in Peloponnese, Greece. Hight Groves sits on the mountains above the magical village of Ancient Epidavros. ‘Epidavros’ means center of the aura and is a powerful energetic location with a deep and rich history in healing and is the perfect place to go deeper in your practice. Nearby is the Sanctuary of Asklepios, the God of Medicine in Greek Mythology; an archeological site which once was a thriving integrative medical center.
Retreat Space & Accomodations
High above the valley of the Fiora River with its unrefined canyons and its copper gleaming Etruscan towns of Sovana, Pitigliano and Sorana and among the lush green olive groves lies the magnificent country estate and seminar house Catebbio.
With its beautiful secluded location at a height of 500 metres and its unique panoramic views, it is a treasure with the nobleness of old Tuscan manors. All the elegantly decorated rooms of the four houses of Catebbio with a total area of 600 square metres invite you to enjoy the breathtaking view of the Tyrrhenian coast and the islands Elba, Giglio, Monte Christo and the sophisticated Argentario. Yoga will be practiced on an outdoor wood yoga deck adjacent to La Villa. The deck provides breathtaking views of the surrounding valley and the Tuscan landscape. It is also a beautiful place to watch the sunset. After classes, you can refresh in the pool, or find a bench under a tree and take in the view of the valley while contemplating your journey.
