KATRIN.FRANK. RETREAT.YOURSELF.RESET.

SWITCH OFF THE STRESS – SWITCH ON THE ALPS

Sometimes, all you need is a little distance from everyday life, fresh mountain air and time for yourself. Switch Off the Stress – Switch On the Alps invites you to slow down, recharge and bring body and mind back into balance.

Mindful yoga sessions for all levels combine gentle movements with powerful sequences, creating space for relaxation, inner clarity and renewed energy. Between the group sessions, there is plenty of time to discover the Gastein Valley at your own pace.

With the Almorama Card, there are plenty of ways to experience the impressive mountain scenery around Bad Hofgastein – whether on a relaxing panoramic walk, a hike or a cable car ride. Afterwards, the spacious wellness area with pool, saunas and relaxation zones is the perfect place to unwind and recharge.

A retreat for anyone looking to escape everyday stress, consciously slow down and return home with a sense of lightness, fresh energy and a clear mind.

RETREAT INSTRUCTOR: Katrin Frank

Katrin is the founder of Fit und Frei – Leben ist Bewegung and supports people with experience and enthusiasm on their journey towards greater physical and mental balance. She has been teaching various styles of yoga for many years and regularly leads workshops and yoga retreats.

Her classes combine precise alignment, mindful movement and conscious body awareness. The focus is not on the perfect asana, but on healthy, individually adapted yoga that promotes strength, mobility and inner calm in equal measure.

Regular advanced training and her passion for holistic movement shape her work. With warmth and joy, Katrin creates spaces where people can let go, recharge and move freely – true to her motto: Fit und Frei – Leben ist Bewegung.
