The Saparella Reserve is one of those unique places on earth which, once reached, shape the perception of happiness and leave an unforgettable memory…
Here, you will be connected to nature at every moment:
all your senses will resume their innate function to pass on forgotten sensations, from sunrise where we will indulge in the most beautiful of all Yoga practices, to sunset where we will retire to our tents installed under the trees.
Your body and your mind will be inhabited by a feeling of well-being, calm, relaxation and the happiness of finding back yourself …
Here, on this island, our aphorism: « Yoga is a journey which destination becomes the journey » takes on its full meaning.
With our team of teachers, instructors and providers, we spent several months developing this stay at the Saparella Natural Reserve, between an authentic practice of Yoga and the discovery of what we hold as the most beautiful of all the islands in the world: Corsica.
Our purpose is to offer you an unforgettable and exclusive experience, the one that our founder Antonina Rubina lives every day. Therefore, the teachers who ensure her progress as a practitioner and teacher will be here, with us, to train you during this special stay.
This retreat is conceived for both, beginners as well as experienced practitioners.
Patrick Frapeau is the founder of Mysore Practice in Paris, “Authorized Teacher Level 2” by the KPJAYI (Krishna Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute). First a student of the illustrious Pattabhi Jois then of R. Sharat Jois, he has been teaching Yoga since 2005.
Convinced of the immense power of resilience of Yoga, he has developed his teaching to touch many people, including in penitentiary centres in France. He also travelled to Iraq to train psychologists to accompany refugees through the various techniques of this age-old philosophy.
Patrick Frapeau is a great Master of Ashtanga Yoga. He is known for his pedagogy, in his way of sharing the techniques as well as the wisdom of Yoga.
During your stay, he will offer you an immersion in the Mysore Style, the traditional practice of Ashtanga Yoga, as it has been practiced since its origin in Southern India, in Mysore.
He will also lead thematic and practical workshops based on a series of postures, pranayama, meditation and philosophy.
As a certified Iyengar and Ashtanga Yoga teacher and Founder of Lemon & Love Yoga, Antonina Rubina will have the pleasure to assist Patrick Frapeau during this workshop, and to share this privileged moment of Yoga with you.

As Co-editor of the philosophical journal entitled “Namarupa, Categories of Indian Thought” he is also one of the creators of the anti-violence programme called “Urban Yogis”.
Eddie Stern learned Yoga under the guidance of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, from 1991 to 2009, and is still today a student of R. Sharath Jois, from Mysore, India.
Eddie has been travelling all over the world for many years to pass on his knowledge and vision of Yoga practice during dedicated workshops. For the first time, he will be teaching in Corsica, during our special Autumn long stays.

An extraordinary island of beauty, 100 hectares of Corsican land that the Saparella Reserve privatizes for our Yoga courses, teachers whose knowledge precedes their reputation, a general organization meeting various demanding criteria, exclusive activities for you to discover this Mediterranean land in the most authentic way… obviously, we had to build our “home”, our SHALA, to fully dedicate this place to Yoga and make our invitation an incomparable experience.
Once again, the owners of the Saparella Reserve make our dreams come true.
They have started the construction of a 200 m2 SHALA made of wood and stone, facing the Mediterranean Sea, thus open to nature, under the sunlight with an absolutely breath-taking view of the Gulf of Ajaccio.
We collaborated very closely in its conception and are present throughout its advancement. We shall put the images of this fascinating process online step by step and post them on all our communication media to celebrate this event together.
This will be the first SHALA ever built in Corsica. We shall have the immense pleasure of inaugurating it during our Spring training course, from 2 to 8 May 2021, with the participation of Patrick Frapeau.
Our gratitude to Laetitia, Julien and Marco is boundless.
Your stays at the Saparella Reserve are conceived for your greatest pleasure. In order to personalise your stay as best as possible, we have invited two renowned Yoga personalities: Patrick Frapeau and Eddie Stern, who will be working alongside Antonina Rubina to run their tailor-made courses, for short and long stays, in the Springtime and the Autumn season.
Committed to passing on their Art through their experience, the three of them will accompany you to share unforgettable moments in a magical place.
