MOVE to Shine - Summer Retreat
with Ulrike & Lenka
Join us for a nourishing summer escape where movement, yoga and nature come together to help you shine from the inside out. At the beautiful Naturbauernhof Pöltl in the heart of Pöllau, we invite you to slow down, recharge and reconnect with yourself, with others and with the rhythm of the season.
Together with my dear friend Lenka, we’ll guide you through a blend of yoga, mindful movement and restorative practices designed to bring balance, strength and ease. Whether flowing through energizing sessions in the morning sun, or unwinding with calming practices at dusk, every moment is created to help you feel grounded and radiant.
Between sessions, enjoy the peaceful surroundings of the organic farm, wholesome seasonal meals and the simplicity of being in nature. There will be space for laughter, stillness, creativity, and connection - a true retreat for body, mind and soul.
Our days start with the morning practice that includes meditation, pranayama, journaling and yoga. In the afternoons and evenings we will head into more restorative practices like yin yoga, restorative and yoga nidra; there will also be two (optional) workshops happening that you can find out more about in the program below.
In between classes and workshops there will be enough free time to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

ABOUT YOUR HOSTS
Ulrike Atzmueller, based in Vienna, Austria is a Yoga and Pilates teacher, Thai Nuad practitioner, Reiki master, Sound Scapeist and TCM nutritionist.
After spending most of her adult working life coordinating international medical conferences and gala events around Austria, Ulrike discovered Yoga and Breathwork as the most beneficial combination to reduce stress and foster wellbeing for herself.
After a few years of self practice, discovering all the beautiful benefits of movement in accordance with breath, she was longing to pass this knowledge on to other people, helping them to understand their bodies better.
Her teaching style best describes as a dynamic, creative vinyasa flow with a therapeutic approach. In her classes Ulrike wants you to move with joy, discovering poses and motion you might have not experienced in a Yoga class before. Always with focussing on strengthening the body, allowing the breath to guide and brain mapping to happen.
During the pandemic Ulrike used the time to build up her own online Yoga Studio where she teaches Yin Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Meditation, creates Sound Journeys and Yoga Nidra. Additional to that she loves to treat her Yogis to Thai Yoga Bodywork in her own small studio in the heart of Vienna, organizing Ecstatic Dance Events and playing the harmonium, singing her heart out.
