SEMINARS
About our seminars
We offer two types of seminars:​
Short-Term Seminars
These one-week artistic retreats provide a taste of our communal life and an opportunity to explore learning through dance, theater, art, writing, nature, and more.
Long-Term Seminars
Lasting from one to three months, these seminars offer a deeper connection with the community, providing the full experience of living as part of it and engaging in all its aspects.

Long term seminars
Olive Pruning and Community Seminar
12-30 of April
Experience the quiet magic of Tuscany as we gather for a unique pruning seminar where nature and inner reflection intertwine. Here, beneath the olive branches, you’ll learn the art of pruning—choosing which branches to trim so sunlight reaches the heart of the tree.
It’s a mindful practice that mirrors how we can invite clarity and growth into our lives. With every cut, there’s a chance to pause, reflect, and connect. Spend time immersed in nature, connect with like-minded people, and experience life in a learning community dedicated to exploration and self-discovery, where reflection and simple, shared moments matter.
Building a Theater
19.6-16.8
Step into an extraordinary two-month journey where art and nature meet. At the edge of a spring-fed lake, we’ll build a Roman-style theater using sustainable materials—crafting a structure and a space for stories and connection.
This is more than a building project; it’s an immersive experience of theater-making, where daily sessions spark laughter, creativity, and self-discovery. Whether you’re drawn to performing or working with your hands, this seminar offers an immersive way to experience life in a learning community, blending creativity, collaboration, and connection to nature.
Olive harvest and dance Seminar
18.10-1.11
Discover the magic of the olive harvest season at Villa Sentire—a hands-on, heart-opening experience of connection, shared meals, and time spent in our olive groves. You’ll join a unique gathering combining meaningful work, guided reflection, and joyful community building. Whether you’re new to olive picking or seeking a deeper connection to nature and yourself, this event invites you to slow down, engage with others, and immerse yourself in the rhythms of the land.
