A Stinging Retreat

Submitted by Christina Valhouli on Mon, 2007-05-14 06:03.

If you can't make it to a Police reunion concert this summer, another way to get a piece of Sting is to book a stay at his family's Tuscan retreat, Il Palagio. This 16th century villa is located in Chianti, and also operates as an organic farm with both livestock and agricultural produce. (The estate produces honey and extra virgin olive oil). Il Palagio (or Estate di Sumner) has just announced it will start hosting week-long yoga retreats through out the year, and teachers include Ashtanga yoga devotee Chuck Miller and Maty Ezraty, who founded the Original Yoga Works in Santa Monica, California.
