Workshops & Retreats
A place to work, to teach, to recharge
La Ferrière welcomes workshop and retreat organisers: yoga and meditation teachers, artists and instructors, music ensembles, schools and associations. The house and its grounds offer what cities lack — space, silence, light — with a single point of contact, the family, to prepare your stay.

Who is it for?
Every discipline finds its place at La Ferrière. Indicative formats, to be shaped together around your project.
Painting & visual-arts workshops
Painting in the countryside, en plein air or in the studio: the grounds, the house and the changing light offer endless subjects, and the indoor spaces let you work in any weather.
Indicative format : Residential workshop of 3 to 7 days, for a group of [TODO: capacity] participants with one or two instructors.
Music courses & ensemble residencies
Make music without time limits or neighbours to disturb: the house suits chamber-music rehearsals, masterclasses and creative residencies.
Indicative format : Residency of 2 to 10 days for an ensemble of [TODO: capacity] musicians. [TODO: piano / instruments on site?]
Meditation & yoga retreats
A nature meditation retreat asks for few things, but demands them all: calm, simplicity, a room to practise in and grounds to walk in. La Ferrière brings them together.
Indicative format : Retreat of 2 to 7 days, group of [TODO: capacity] participants, practising indoors and in the grounds.
School stays & countryside discovery
Introducing city children to the countryside: for a school trip or an association stay, La Ferrière becomes a life-size ground for observing and learning.
Indicative format : Stay of 2 to 5 days for a school or association group of [TODO: capacity] children and their chaperones. [TODO: conditions for hosting minors — supervision, applicable regulations.]
