Meet our in-house yogi Polly! Polly's Yoga is teaching on our March ski and yoga retreat and we took 5 minutes to chat about her ethos and what guests can expect from the week to give you a little taste of what's to come. We still have two rooms left on the retreat so if you're interested in coming along get in touch!

S N O W G A
The creation of combining skiing and yoga.

You would be forgiven for never having heard of this concept before, but Snowga is actually a great way of getting in tune with yourself and the world around you. By taking your yoga outside, you're not only opening up your mind and appreciating the natural phenomena surrounding you, but also enjoying the benefits of fresh air, sunshine, and hopefully some serenity.

Snowga is also used by many to improve their skills on the slopes by incorporating the yoga principles of meditation, breathing techniques and stretching poses. The US ski team freestyle mogul skier, Heather McPhie, is reported to practise yoga every day she skis:

"It is so helpful in keeping my body more physically prepared and is a wonderful pause in my day where I get away from everything else and just centre," she told FoxNews.

Join us, Mountain Therapy, with our friends, Polly's Yoga, from January 8th - January 15th for our very own Ski X Yoga retreat at our eco-chalet, Chalet Sterwen in Les Arcs, for an unforgettable week.

Traditional ski holidays normally mean one thing: over-indulgence. Yes, we work hard on the slopes all day, but exertion is generally counter-balanced by a chocolat chaud here, a tartiflette there, and lots and lots of booze. From beers on the mountain to chalet wine at dinner to a local digestif to...

Eggs with a splash of Mexico for breakfast this morning. We love Huevos Rancheros at Mountain Therapy - warming, filling and perfect for fuelling a day on the mountain

There's one fork for a reason 😄
Delicious chocolate and orange torte - perhaps the only thing that will get you out of the hot tub?
Gluten and refined sugar free

Spotted: our wood-fired hot tub hiding under inches of fresh snow. Sure, it's August, but we can still dream of post-ski soaking under blue skies

Funnily enough, we're early risers at Mountain Therapy. Breakfasts are a hearty, homemade affair with this cinnamon and pecan granola just one of the tasty things on offer
