Our Breathers' Experiences

Attending Breathwork retreat has profoundly changed my life! I met the most amazing people, accepting every messy bit of me and showering me with love and support. The sessions and classes helped me to connect with my intuition on a very deep and safe level. I highly recommend the whole experience, it will push you forward in your processes in a way you wouldn't expect.

I'm quite new to breathwork. Breathing techniques that they use here are wow, so powerful. I literally connected with my ancestors and it was the most loving beautiful experience that I could have ever imagined. They brought me to tears, I got rid of so many things out of me that were in the body and then it just released me to this loving kind of happy place where I can see that the universe is actually not hostile.

Frequently Asked Questions

General

Yes! We are now offering monthly payment installments with a 20% up-front deposit. Please note that your balance must be fully paid 2 weeks prior to your arrival at Breathcamp. To take advantage of this offer, select ‘Deposit with installment payments’ from the dropdown at checkout.

If you can’t stay for the full 10 days, you are welcome to leave early. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer any refunds or discounts if you choose to leave early. Alchemy of Breath students attending BreathCamp to complete the Facilitator Training are required to stay for the full 10 days to be eligible to graduate.

Thank you for the question.  You are so very welcome, at exactly the stage you are at.  You’ll be surrounded by graduates of Breathwork, who’s speciality is people just like you, just where you’re at.  So, know the content and care is for two groups – both advanced (our graduates), and the general public, who are at varying stages of experience (many breathing for the first time).  Just know, you’ll be held and taken care of in a beautiful way from the very start of your breathwork journey! Exciting!

On this page, below the FAQ’s, please see the section “How To Get To ASHA” – for full travel info.

Check the bottom of this page for more details and resources on how to get to ASHA.

It’s about 1.5 kilometers or a 20 minute very beautiful walk along a vast massive view of the valley.  It’s up a big hill from ASHA, so it’s for the fit-minded.  Otherwise, it’s a 5 minute drive.

Yes, free wifi is available in the main house and Dharma Den, though not in the rooms, or around the property.

We suggest picking up a TIM or Wind SIM card when you arrive Italy. Because ASHA is half hour away from a major town, it’s important to pick it up before coming to ASHA.

At ASHA we have 7 cats, and 2 dogs.  Given the sensitive nature of cats (and previous not so great experiences with dogs chasing them) leashes are required – and strictly enforced.   And no, our dogs are not on leashes as they are integrated with our cats. They know who the boss is, and we know where they poo.  We are surrounded by endless woods where your dog can roam free, though please keep them on a leash while at ASHA.  Also, please be mindful of cleaning up poo so no one steps in it!  There’s a 40 euro donation fee per pet.

The nearest laundry mat is about 20 minutes away in Aquapendente.

Smoking is only permitted in the parking lot. Please do not smoke inside or outside of your room, in the common areas, or other areas of ASHA, and all camp locations.  And do consider that smoking isn’t a part of our culture, and not encouraged.

There are 2 restaurants in Castell’Azzara: La Tana d’Orso – which is a favorite, and a pizzeria called La Rosa dei Venti.  Also in nearby San Giovanni delle Contee(10 minutes drive away), there’s Osteria Maccalè – we love this place.  Also check out the nearby towns for more options (that are super beautiful) Pitigliano and Sorano.

Please keep in mind we are well-being center… this just isn’t the place for smoking, drugs, or alcohol. Like to have a glass of wine here and there?  Sure.  Though we trust you understand the nature of this work, and will not abuse the use of wine, just because it’s part of Italian culture (at ASHA, and in general while staying in the area).

There’s one grocery store – The Co-op – and veg store, and a Thursday morning produce/general stuff market as well. The Co-op does have some organic dry products.  We recommend bringing any speciality items. It’s basic in Castell’Azzara, not bad, though basic.

There are many hiking trails around ASHA! If you’re interested, we recommend checking with our community member Stuart, who knows pretty much all of them. Castell’Azzara is surrounded with beautiful villages, such as Pitigliano or Sorano. There are also many historical sites dating back to the Etruscan people, the ancestors whose spirits are still spreading blessings to the land around ASHA.

Kids are welcome at ASHA, and a huge part of our vision.  There’s plenty of space for them to roam around in a safe environment. Please be responsible for them at all times, including their clean up in communal spaces. Kids can only stay in private accommodation with their guardian (tent, glamping, camper, or private cottage) – not in shared accommodation with other students.  Kids under 10 eat and stay for free. Kids 11 and over are charged for food and accommodation at New Member pricing, with a 20% discount.  Attentive kids are welcome to join Breathcamp at the discretion of the trainer and facilitator of each session. Reach out to info@asha.global for more information, and to receive a special 20% coupon code.  This offer applies for each kid in a family.

Yes, you can arrive one day earlier.  Check-in is on the Thursday before Camp starts on Friday, after 3 pm.

You can also stay one day longer. Check-out is on the Monday, after your Camp ends on Sunday, by 3 pm.

Please book your extra nights when you sign up. The extra-night prices include breakfast, lunch and dinner.

If you already booked your breathcamp-spot and want to add an extra night before and/or after the breathcamp to your booking, please send your booking request to generalmanager@asha.global.

Yes! Please keep in mind that due to the nature of our work, intimacy is usually at an all time high. Please don’t mistake that as an emotional or sexual invitation. Be considerate of others personal space, and don’t assume anything.  And… please keep sexuality in general out of the equation unless you arrived as a couple. Together, let’s protect a safe space for everyone.

Absolutely. We suggest setting your own boundaries, and clearly communicating them as needed. You’re also welcome to reach out to the mentors and team if you need support.  Take your space as needed!

See above for a typical daily schedule. We will be sending a more detailed program guide and camp schedule soon, so watch your inbox as your camp date approaches.

We finish after lunch, around 2 pm on the final day.

Accommodation

  • Well-being/healing sessions (fees apply)
  • Pool
  • Complimentary coffee and tea table

Check-in is from 2:30pm on Friday. The orientation starts at 4:30pm. Please arrive in time for the orientation.

Check-out:
For the 10-day-camp the checkout is on Sunday until 3pm (program ends with the lunch at 2pm). For the 5-day-camp the check-out is on Tuesday until 5pm (the program ends with the integral music with Michael at 4pm).

No sorry, that option isn’t available.

Based on feedback from our students and guests, we have decided not to offer single-day passes this year. This change is intended to preserve and protect the container for everyone in attendance.

Potentially. Book together to stay together at the same time. If you’re booking last minute we may not be able to accommodate your reques. Be sure to submit your request on the intake form when you sign up – very important..

We’re sorry but due to high demand, your reservation is only confirmed once payment has been made and we cannot hold rooms for you.

During May and September, the weather can be variable, so use at your own risk as we don’t offer refunds.

If you want to bring your spouse to BreathCamp, we can offer them a 20% discount on a tent or camper. You and your spouse can also book the private cottage, but we cannot offer any discount on this accommodation. Your spouse is welcome to use our facilities, join meals, participate in classes and workshops, and book healing sessions. Please reach out directly to generalmanager@asha.global to organize. Availability is limited, so we recommend booking ASAP.

Well-Being Sessions

Contact info@asha.global… and our reservationist will help you.  You can also book at ASHA upon arrival.

Life Direction Coaching & Breathwork Private with Anthony, private Intuitive Readings with Amy, Sound Healing, Massage, and More.  If you’d like to book with Anthony and Amy, we suggest booking asap as space is limited.  Contact info: info@asha.global
