Events & Retreats · 2026–28
Gather close. Or go far.
An evening, a day, two nights away — or a full journey abroad. Movement in the morning, then the thing each place does best: a long table, a flower market, a castle, a vineyard, a lake. Small circles, everything arranged, hosted start to finish.
Events

Open to everyone.

The Year-End Gathering
The Minneapolis Club · MinneapolisEveryone welcomeSunday, December 20, 2026
A night to close the year together. Not a launch, not a pitch — a warm room in deep winter with the people who got us here: friends, family, guests, the makers and hosts we work with. Something in your hand at the door, food worth staying for, a short session from our founder on being your own personal assistant, a toast, and the first look at where we're going in 2027.
- Welcome drink and passed hors d'oeuvres
- A short session on being your own personal assistant
- A seated moment and a shared toast
- Wine and a considered non-alcoholic list
- The first look at the 2027 calendar
- Photographs, shared the next morning
Fleurs & Saint-Honoré
Le Marais · 1er arrondissementOpen to allLate spring 2027
A flower-market morning with a Parisian florist — you build the arrangement, we carry it — then a reformer class in a Marais studio, lunch in a courtyard nobody walks past twice, and an afternoon on the rue Saint-Honoré by appointment: outfitting, a fragrance fitting, a spa hour.
Falls in the same season as our Italian journey — several guests will make one trip of it.
- Market morning & florist-led arrangement
- Reformer class, all levels
- Courtyard lunch, wine included
- By-appointment outfitting on Saint-Honoré
- Spa hour or fragrance fitting
- A Paris gift edit to take home
Retreats · Weekends · 2027
Weekends away.
Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. Considered lodging, mornings of movement, and everything arranged. Solo guests are paired thoughtfully, and your own room is always an option.
Pilates in a Castle
A castle in the hills between Siena & Florence · announcing soonOpen to allMay 2027
Two nights as the only guests of a house with turrets. Reformer classes in the great hall with the windows open, a winery afternoon in the valley, an evening of florals cut from the walled garden, and one candlelit long table under a ceiling older than your country.

Vines & Florals
A farmhouse inn among the vines · announcing soonOpen to allHarvest 2027
Two nights at a farmhouse inn in the weeks the valley smells like crushed grapes. Movement in the vines at first light, a flower-arranging afternoon under a florist's eye with what the garden gives that week, a cellar tasting nobody books online, and a long table set between the rows as the light goes.
- Two nights, farmhouse inn
- Two morning sessions in the vines
- Florist-led arranging afternoon
- Private cellar tasting
- Long table dinner between the rows
- Our founder & a guest facilitator
The North Shore Weekend
Cabins on Lake Superior · announcing soonOpen to allAutumn 2027
Two nights in cabins on the biggest lake in the world, at the week the maples turn. Mat classes on the rocks at sunrise, a forest walk to a waterfall, a proper Finnish sauna and cold plunge, a fire-cooked dinner, and the kind of stars you forgot were up there.

- Two shoreline movement sessions
- Guided forest & waterfall walk
- Sauna & cold-plunge evening

2027
Four journeys · open now · more announcing at the Year-End Gathering
Scottsdale
Arizona, USARetreatWomen's Journey
Four nights at the foot of Camelback Mountain in the desert's kindest season — sunrise hikes, spa mornings, a private golf lesson for those who want one, and golden-hour dinners under an open sky. No long flight, no jet lag, all of the care.
The Tuscan Journey
Tuscany, ItalyRetreatOpen to all
Five nights in the hills between Siena and Florence, in the fortnight the poppies come up. Movement in an olive grove, a pasta lesson with the family who has cooked in that kitchen for forty years, a slow day among the vines, and a long table under a pergola every night.
Runs directly after Pilates in a Castle in the same region — book both for seven continuous nights in Italy, one flight, one transfer, at a combined rate.
Bali — Lodge in the Woods
Kaba-Kaba, Bali, IndonesiaRetreatOpen to all
Five nights at a six-room property in Kaba-Kaba village, about fifteen minutes from Canggu. Simple, but luxurious living, surrounded by nature, water, animals and trees. Reserve a conversation to walk through the stay.
Tokyo & the Mountains
JapanEscapeOpen to all
Seven nights, two chapters, in Japan's red-and-gold season. Tokyo first — gardens in crimson, a guided day through doors you'd never find, the quietest bathhouse in the city. Then one bullet train to Kanazawa, the old samurai city, for a sword lesson with a master, tea houses, gold leaf, and an onsen evening under the maples. With a guest co-host.
St. Moritz
Engadin, SwitzerlandEscapeWomen's Journey
Five nights in the Engadin at the fortnight the whole alpine calendar points to — White Turf race days on the frozen lake, blue-sky mornings on the Corviglia pistes, a sleigh into the Roseg valley, and fondue in a chalet with a very low ceiling. We stay a little up the valley, where the rooms are handsome and the views are better, and spend the difference on the days.
Cape Town
South AfricaRetreatWaitlist
Two oceans, one mountain, and the light everyone talks about — Table Mountain at dawn, the Clifton beaches, a full winelands day, and dinners that run until the stars come out. Our founder has traveled here and knows it well. Planned for the Cape's midsummer.
Reserving a journey
A conversation, then a deposit. That's it.
No booking engine, no instant checkout. Every journey is arranged personally — because the right circle matters more than a fast transaction.
01
Reserve a conversation
Send the form below. Our founder replies personally within two days to set up a short call — twenty minutes, no pitch.
02
The call
What you're hoping for, who you'd travel with, which room, which register. Everything answered, nothing assumed.
03
The deposit
A deposit holds your place. Non-refundable, but transferable to another guest — and refunded in full if we ever cancel a journey.
04
The balance
Set out plainly in writing at reservation, usually in two instalments — the last one well before departure.
05
Everything handled
A personal itinerary, packing notes, transfers, the table, the people — and your host at the door when you land.
Good to know
Small print, said plainly.
Everything on this page is a single ticket — no deposit schedule, no membership, no application. Journeys are the only thing we arrange by conversation.
01
Dates
Each is shown by season until the venue is signed. Request a seat and you're first to hear the date — no commitment until you confirm.
02
Reserving
One ticket holds your seat. Transferable any time; refundable up to fourteen days before a weekend, seven before an evening or day.
03
Getting there
Minneapolis events and weekends meet at the venue; we share car-pool and arrival notes. Travel to Paris, Italy and beyond is yours to arrange — we'll help.
04
Movement
Every class is all-levels and invitational. Never done Pilates? You're exactly who it's for.
05
Rooms & tables
Retreat rooms are shared by default, with your own room on request. Solo guests are paired thoughtfully, and seats at every table are placed by hand.
Private
Just for your circle.
Any event, retreat or journey can be held for your own group of eight to fourteen, on your dates. A milestone birthday, a company offsite that isn't one, or a family that travels well together.
Request a seat
Tell us which one. We'll hold a place.
Choose an event or a retreat and we'll hold a seat while dates and venues are confirmed — you hear first, and decide then. Our founder replies personally within two days.
