Institut d'Études Politiques de Paris
Compassionate Communication is an approach to language that encourages openness to dialogue and cooperation, in oneself and in others. It takes its sources in the systemic psychology of Marshall Rosenberg (NVC), and joins the nonviolent root of yoga, "ahimsa" in Sanskrit. From exercises based on real situations, you connect to feelings to awaken our awareness of the deep human issues of the situation. Then, by practicing non-attachment, you approach the different possibilities of non-violent action. Hélène Pétry has been practicing Benevolent Communication since 2011.
Pily Zarate Tejeda
Pily is a psychologist and yoga teacher. Originally from Mexico, she has been living abroad for more than 12 years. In China, she was challenged with some health setbacks that made her set up a process of self -healing, changing habits, following a plant-based diet and living in yoga. She accomplished in total 500H-TTC in Mysore and Goa, India, followed by some different retreats and workshops in Asia. She enjoys transmitting to her students how to integrate the power of the heart and yoga in everyday life. She is a big fan of Eckart Tolle and her teachings are heavily influenced by him.

"Deep meditation and yoga lifestyle experience "
Not your usual Yoga retreat, Benoit and his team are delivering life changing experience through breathing workshop and great talks on the philosophy behind yoga, all of that in a magnificent village on the top of the hills yet super convenient to reach from Nice. It has been beyond my expectations !

Ein Wohlfühlort, mit viel Sorgfalt, Umsicht und Liebe geführt und mit wunderbarem Essen. Alleine schon die Lage unterhalb der Baous tut gut. Das Team rund um Benoît ist aussergewöhnlich, vielen Dank, dass ihr alle zu diesem wunderbaren Ort beitragt!

"Au delà de mes attentes"
Nous avons été accueillis dans un cadre magnifique par des personnes formidables et vraiment impliquées. Les cours de yoga et méditations sont variés, les activités dans la régions (rando et balade) intéressants, j'ai découvert la communication non violente que j'essaie maintenant d'appliquer au quotidien, nous avons mangé tous les jours des repas excellents... L'ambiance du groupe a rapidement été chaleureuse et bienveillante. Une semaine enrichissante a tous les points.

"Wundervolles, entspannendes Retreat mit herzlichem Gastgeber"
Direkt bei der Ankunft wurde man wahnsinnig herzlich empfangen. Benoit ist super nett und ruhig und gibt einem das Gefühl willkommen zu sein. Die Yoga Stunden mit ihm am Morgen waren eine Mischung aus leichten Übungen und viel Meditation. Das Essen ist frisch, selbst zubereitet, Bio und vegetarisch/vegan. Auf persönliche Unverträglichkeiten/Ernährungsweisen wird Rücksicht genommen. Alles ist super geplant und durchdacht. Die Ausflüge, z.B. Wandern auf den Berg oder zu einem Fluss wurden individuell bzw. nach Wetter und körperlichen Möglichkeiten abgesprochen. Es wurde Picknick mitgenommen und zwischendurch meditiert. Zwischen den Yoga Sessions, Ausflügen und Workshops war immer wieder Freizeit, sodass man auch eigene Dinge unternehmen konnte. Das Dorf ist sehr süß und das Frogs' Haus ist mitten im historischen Stadtkern. Es ist aber nicht überfüllt und generell ist das Dorf relativ ruhig.

This retreat touched my heart in every way. Delicious food, beautiful connections with warm people, spiritual reconnection in a stunning hillside village very convenient from Nice. I couldn’t have asked for a more fulfilling week with Benoit and his excellent team.

"A week at Frogs’ House is just what the soul needs!"
The staff works together so beautifully and all take turns teaching you their practice throughout the week to create the perfect variations of yoga classes - all suiting to your needs and skill level. Fresh delicious food served for every meal and accompanied for all diets and requests. A great balance of yoga, breath work, exploring St. Jeannett and learning about French culture. I had the best week quieting and connecting my mind. Made it hard to leave! 💕

"Enjoying the yogi life inside-out "
The frog's house team really delivers a unique experience bringing the yogi spirit of presence, connection and fun to all what they do.
I really enjoyed the yoga sessions with Pily and Benoit. I have never felt so relax and grounded.
I was surprised about the NVC workshops. I found it really insightful. So much I am considering further looking into it and of a course in my country.
The food, the surroundings, the city hopping and the people are the cherry on top.
Thanks!

"Amazing yoga retreat"
From the moment you are contacted on Whatsapp you feel the positivity and inclusiveness of the FrogS House team. They went out of their way to make you feel happy, comfortable and included. The setting is spectacular. The hiking day was fantastic with stunning views over the Cote d'Azur. The staff were very knowledgable and interesting. Everyone exudes happiness and it rubs off. The meals were delicious, amazing vegetarian and vegan dishes all made with ingredients from the local area. I have taken some recipes home. The outings to St Paul de Vance and Antibe were superb, Benoit is so kind to spend so much time and effort with the groups, giving us local knowledge and information which was brilliant. The room was very comfortable, with beautiful views again. I was very sad to leave and will return. Hugs to FrogS House and thank you, I needed your kindness, wisdom, happiness and zen.

"Sehr gute Organisation mit vielseitigem Angebot "
Dieses Retreat und insbesondere das herzliche gastfreundliche Team des Frog‘s House ist wirklich etwas ganz Besonderes.
Die Unterkunft in diesem wunderbaren alten Hotel inmitten des charmanten mittelalterlichen Dorfes ist ein Traum. Einerseits befindet man sich in den mediterranen Alpen, gleichzeitig liegen einem die Strände der Côte d’Azur in Sichtweite zu Füßen. Große Erfüllung habe ich hier sicher in der Vereinigung zahlreicher Gegensätze gefunden. Ein vielseitiges Programm aus spannenden und entspannten gemeinsamen Unternehmungen, Yogasessions mit sehr guten Dozenten und einem wirklich phantastischen Essen waren ebenso geboten wie die Option, sich jederzeit zurückzuziehen bzw. selbstständig den Tag zu gestalten.
Einmal mehr ist mir klar geworden, wie wichtig gute Kommunikation für mich wirklich ist. Durch die warmherzige und offene Atmosphäre fühlt man sich wirklich als Teil der Gemeinschaft und sehr verbunden. Der in dieser Woche angebotene Schnupper-Workshop in NVC, dem ich anfangs etwas skeptisch gegenüber stand, hat meinen Horizont geistig und emotional erweitert und macht neugierig auf mehr.

"A beautiful yoga holiday"
The setting is stunning in a picturesque 13th century village. The accommodation was gorgeous, full of character but also new and clean. The food was delicious with lots of variety and as much as I could eat.
I really enjoyed the yoga which was quite slow paced with a focus on breathing through the poses. The additional activities were varied and this made it a real holiday, with a hike to swim in a river, a cookery workshop and non-violent communication workshop. We also hiked the "Baous" early one morning to see the sunrise. The limit of 12 people made for a nice cohesive group with a chance to talk to everyone throughout the week.
The booking process was seamless. As I had mentioned a friend might join me but was not ready to book, they even checked in with me as the course was filling up. I appreciated that the price was accessible for solo travellers and that I was not obliged to share a room. I highly recommend this retreat and hope to go back.

"Great experience, food and people"
I truly enjoyed yoga instructors, meditation sessions we had, food we ate and cooked together (can we have more such cooking classes please?:)
I also loved the experience with Non Violent Communication and hope to find out more about it in the future.
Amazing people gather at the retreat, friendly environment and a lot of laughs.
It was my first retreat and I can definitely recommend it to all newbies. Also I know they do separate retreats for couple only - I'd like to do it too next time.

"Inspiring experience at this beautiful little germ"
I had to realise that I had completely different expectations from what a Yoga retreat is. The combination of Yoga, meditation, and deep and meaningful conversations gave me a lot to think about for the future. I am glad to have had this wonderful experience.

"Beyond my expectations! "
One of the best experiences of my life! Safe for solo travellers!
The retret was located in St Jeannet a quiet village near Nice! Easy access to the beach and nearby villages.
The programme was well organised with a sense of flexibility, freedom and relaxation that allowed you to live the present moment without worrying what will happen the next day or even the next hour.
The food was plant based, lots of variety and delicious. Most of the products were local so was great to know that people from the village were also supported! Also wine, cheese and croissants!🍷🧀🥐
The yoga classes were great and the instractors experienced and friendly!
We also had the chance to have a tour on the village, hike in nature and swim in the river! We attented a Non Violence Communication seminar (NVC) which gave you a different perspective and had a 3 course cooking class with chef Noel!
Our group was amazing, great conversations and lots of laugh! Felt like family just in a couple of days!
Special thanks to Benoit and Pily for their positive energy and love!
Greatful and thankful for everything 🙏💙

"Authentic experience in a beautiful French village "
The most appropriate word to describe the FrogsHouse is authenticity. They offer authenticity, value, fun, and an educational experience in a beautiful French village. It’s the right balance of spirituality, exercise, and fun. The FrogsHouse team led by Benoit (Ali, Noel, Pily, Claudia and the other yoga instructors) goes above and beyond to make it enjoyable from yoga, chef prepared meals to activities like hiking and workshops. The hosts and our group gelled so well that I saw them as part of a whole collaborative experience.
It was fully worth taking a long haul flight from the US west coast to get to St. Jeannet and also experience French Rivera.

"Exceptional holiday to move, eat, sit and learn "
The little village of Saint Jeannet of were The Frog’s House is located is just magical. Every person who works at The Frog’s House are special souls who radiate joy and peace. Inclusive yoga classes for all levels. The hikes with Benoit that include swimming are a must. You will not feel like a tourist in France, but a true traveler, to experience this sweet village and all from The Frog’s House that allows all of your senses to explore.

"Beyond expectations…incredible experience"
I can’t say enough good things about Frog’s House. Benoit is a beautiful spirit, sharing yoga, light, French culture. All the instructors and staff are so thoughtful and kind. The food is delicious! I especially enjoyed the cooking class with Noel. The location is beautiful and peaceful. I arrived at Frogs House stressed from life and pain in my shoulders and sacrum. After a week…joy in my heart, pain free, relaxed. I appreciate the friendships made and laughter shared with other participants. Highly recommend this retreat.

What a week I’ve had, it was everything I wanted and more. From the stunning train ride departing from Amsterdam all the way to the Côte d’Azur, to the daily yoga and meditation sessions guided by the talented Frogs House team. A big surprise were the non violent communication workshops, I was reluctant at first but now I just want to learn more! Everything was taught with humor and no pressure to participate if it didn’t feel right to you, my kind of retreat.
I met an amazing bunch of ladies from all over the world: Denmark, Norway, Germany, USA, Australia, UK and France, I haven’t laughed so much in a while, my stomach muscles got a true work out.
Not to forget the hikes and views around Saint-Jeannet overlooking the French Riviera. It’s such a stunning area, and the little beautiful sleepy town really added to the experience. It was hard being in busy Nice again after that.
We had a personal French chef making our daily meals, he also gave a cooking workshop so I have some recipes to try out at home. Oh and wine, loads of lovely local wines from a family run vinyard just down the road.
A true highlight was the chapel of Matisse in Vence, without Benoit’s knowledge about the history and build I don’t think I would have been so in awe.
I’ve come away from this week feeling centered, inspired and looking forward to the months ahead.

"What a lovely and relaxing Yoga- and Meditation Week!"
The frog´s house is exactly how it is described and the many good reviews speak for themselves! :) I really enjoyed the weekly program, which was well balanced with yoga- and meditation classes, hiking & cooking class activities (with the lovely Noel... amazing!!) and free time. The NVC-workshop was an interesting and very fitting addition as well! Benoit, Ali, Pily and everyone else from the team make you feel welcomed right from the start... they are experienced and knowledgeable instructors and super friendly with a great sense of humour! And Saint-Jeannet is a charming little mountain village where it´s really easy to take things slower and unwind. I also enjoyed for a nice change the coffee and delicious local wine with this retreat. All in all... highly recommended!! @ frog´s team... merci beacoup encore pour cette semaine magnifique! :)

"A gem of a retreat "
Perfect location and combination of yoga and other activities.
Fabulous hiking opportunities.
The non - violent communication workshops were well delivered and thought provoking. I will be exploring this topic further.
The medieval village of Saint Jeanette is beautiful, tranquil and fascinating. I loved the church bells in the morning.
Delicious breakfast outdoors - absolute heaven.
No pressure to do anything you didn’t wish to. As an exhausted special needs teacher, this was spot on for me.
Delicious local wine available with most meals !
Knowledgeable , experienced instructors with a great sense of humour. French cooking workshop with Noel.
Alors!
L’ équipe Grenouille,
Merci beaucoup pour toutes.

"An exceptionally approachable retreat "
The friendly welcome by all helped me to settle in very quickly. The pace of the retreat was perfect for me. I was recovering from a serious illness and was concerned about my ability to 'keep up'. No need. Your own ability is respected fully. The staff are kind, good humoured, engaging and approachable with a genuine and authentic passion for people. The region is beautiful and the village of Sainte Jeannet and it's people is gorgeous and peaceful. There are great options for exploring the surrounds. The food was really delicious, healthy and plentiful. The activities were varied and interesting and my yoga practice has been quite definitely enhanced. It was easy to 'belong' and to just 'be' at this retreat and I would return in a heartbeat.

Je remercie tout le monde de la Frog House, pour l’extrême gentillesse et bienveillance dont ils ont fait preuve, et pour avoir su faire passer un état de bien-être réconfortant, aussi bien par le yoga que par les échanges, les bains sonores, la cuisine,la danse avec Ali, les randonnées dans les Baous. Merci encore à eux tous, j’emporte avec moi cette sensation de sérénité, ainsi que les fous rire et complicités construits dans notre groupe. Namaste 🙏

"Great variety of experience "
Honestly it was even better than I expected. A real variety of activities at the intensity you prefer and a great bunch of people. It felt like a months break instead of a week and was deeply relaxing and insightful. The hikes to the river and mountains, swimming and picnicking and gazing at the beautiful scenery really restored my spirit. All participants and teachers were v open from day 1 so it was easy to share our pains and pleasures! The yoga was of different styles and included meditative sections, Highly recommend!

"Un stage très bien construit et une équipe adorable"
Je recherchais un stage axé sur la pratique, sans trop insister sur la spiritualité yoga, et empreint de bienveillance.
Ce stage est très bien équilibré. Les cours de yoga sont de très bonne qualité, variant les rythmes, les styles (différents professeurs se succèdent) et permettant à la fois une dépense physique et un vrai recentrage sur soi. Le cadre très authentique et apaisant du village de St-Jeannet facilite ce recentrage, et donne vraiment un côté "retraite" au stage.
Par ailleurs, le stage permet de comprendre le yoga au-delà de la pratique des asana, notamment grâce à l'initiation à la méditation ou à la communication non-violente. Cette compréhension se fait librement et naturellement au fur et à mesure du stage, sans obligation. Si on ne souhaite pas essayer, pas de soucis ! Par ailleurs, les professeurs sont tous très bienveillants et pédagogues, en particulier Benoit et Pili qui sont absolument charmants.
Le programme permet aussi d'autres activités, telle que de la marche jusqu'à la rivière (quel délice de s'y baigner en pleine vague de chaleur), mais aussi du temps pour visiter St-Jeannet, lire (belle découverte du livre Le pouvoir du moment présent), se reposer, discuter ou cuisiner (super cours avec Noël !).
La maison est très accueillante, on s'y sent comme chez soi, notamment grâce à toute l'équipe qui est adorable. Les repas sont très savoureux et gourmands, à l'opposé d'un jeun ! Enfin, le massage de Florence a été une vraie parenthèse bien-être.

"Une semaine qui fait du bien et réconcilie avec soi"
Le professionnalisme et la posture ultra bienveillante & pédagogique des intervenants (a commencer par Benoît, excellent prof de yoga), la simplicité et la générosité de l’hospitalité de nos hôtes (nourriture abondante, accueil attentionné et personnalisé, attitudes prévenantes au quotidien et jusqu’au bout…), le rythme de la session (idéal pour tous les niveaux de pratique de yoga/ médiation, les âges et les niveaux de forme physique) qui laisse la place à des moments pour soi, du temps libre de repos (ce sont de vraies vacances), l’atelier CNV d’Helene, la baignade dans l’Esteron, la dimension internationale des intervenants et participants (venant du Mexique, de l’Iran, de Grande-Bretagne, d’Allemagne, des Pays-Bas…), la qualité des échanges entre participants (empathie, respect, légèreté, profondeur..), les rigolades entre participants
IMPORTANT:
1) d’habitude durant les séances de yoga, je peine dans certaines postures à cause de tensions ou des limites de mon corps manquant de souplesse ou trop corpulent…et avec les cours de Benoît, je ne voyais pas le temps passer, toutes les postures s’enchaînent de manière hyperfine et intelligente grâce à son écoute très attentive du groupe et de chacun des participants…au final, beaucoup d’aisance et de bienfaits personnels …
2) n’ayant pas un très bon niveau d’anglais, j’appréhendais le groupe international mais tout s’est très bien passé grâce aux traductions et soutien des uns et des autres

"Simply delightful"
The Frog's House was truly a peaceful and grounding experience for my husband and I. From the moment you enter the space, you feel the love and thoughtfulness that has gone into the setup. Our room was clean and simple and had an amazing view of the surrounding Cote d'Azur. The yoga sessions were nice and varied. The food was extremely clean and healthy. And the outings provided a chance to get to know everyone in the group a little better. Perhaps my favorite thing was the international nature of the group (both the Frog's house staff and the retreat participants) and the dynamic that it provided for personal growth and stimulating conversation.

Magnifique séjour dans cette très belle région de la PACA. St Jeannet est un village vivant et rempli de solidarité.
La Frog house en est l’exemple éloquent, Je me suis sentie comme à la maison.
Je conseille à tous les internautes de rejoindre cette maison de famille où règne la douceur et la joie j’ai tellement avancé sur moi en 7 jours avec eux, physiquement et psychiquement ! Le massage de Myriam aussi formidable. Un grand merci à tous

"Great week in stunning location!"
I had a great week at Frog's House. There was a lovely friendly and sincere vibe, my room and the whole building was very comfortable and inviting in a beautiful village location with stunning views. The team were super friendly and helpful and there was a nice mix of activities and pace to the week. It was great to try out the different styles of yoga with the different teachers who were all excellent in their own way and it gave me new ideas for my own practice going forward. All in all I would highly recommend Frog's House!

"Great retreat in a beautiful location!"
I had a wonderful week here. I really enjoyed the yoga classes and also the variety of the different teachers and approaches. Everyone that works here was great, and overall there's a very kind and positive vibe. I loved the beautiful location and hearing the frogs at night from my balcony! Activities were also really good, from the hike in the mountains, to visits to nearby medieval villages to the very useful and cathartic non-violent communication sessions and vegan cookery. Highly recommended.

Une équipe d'encadrement très attentive, une chambre claire et confortable avec une salle de bains moderne, une belle vue sur la mer depuis un petit balcon. Un charmant village qui a su garder son charactère authentique. Des cours de yoga variés correspondant à tous les niveaux. Une délicieuse nourriture végétarienne grâce au chef Noël qui a même pris le temps de nous envoyer ses recettes ! Une initiation réussie à la méditation et de superbes excursions dans les baous.

The yoga, the hiking, the reflections, the massages were all geared to who we were and where we were in our lives. The invitation to share or not lead us to being honest and authentic. Our ages ranged from 83, me, to a twenty-something. All of our joy and peace was a reflection of our leaders.

"Unvergessliche Woche"
ALLES :-) Ich kam ohne Erwartungen dort an und das war auch gut so, denn es hätte wirklich alle Erwartungen übertroffen. Das Frog's House liegt in einem wunderschönen kleinen Bergdorf mit Blick auf die Berge und das Meer im Hintergrund. Ich hatte ein schönes gemütliches Zimmer mit Balkon mit herrlichem Ausblick. Die Menschen, die ich dort kennengelernt habe, waren alle sympatisch und obwohl wir alle unterschiedlich sind und einen anderen Hintergrund haben, hat uns doch irgendetwas miteinander verbunden und wir waren eine harmonische Gruppe und haben viele witzige und tiefgründige Gespräche geführt. Mir haben die Yoga-Einheiten 2mal am Tag auch sehr gefallen; ich habe unterschiedliche Techniken kennengelernt/praktiziert, teilweise enthielten sie auch verschiedene Atemtechniken, auch Meditationseinheiten waren vorhanden. Für mich was das eine sehr gute Mischung und ich habe mich dabei sehr wohlgefühlt. Das täglich Yoga wurde sehr gut durch die angebotenen Aktivitäten wie wandern, baden im Fluss mit anschließendem Picknick, super schönem Ausflug nach Antibes, lustigem Kochkurs mit Noel, Klangbad usw. ergänzt. Und nicht zu vergessen das so unglaublich leckere Essen, sei es beim Picknick oder das exzellente Frühstück auf der Terrasse. Für mich war es insgesamt eine perfekte, einzigartige, wunderschöne Woche, für die ich sehr dankbar bin. Vielen Dank nochmal an Benoit, Pily und das komplette Team!!!!!!

Benoît, Corinne, Pily et Antoine vous partagent avec tout leur coeur leur cocon de bien-être dans tous les détails!
Il s'agit d'une véritable retraite holistique absolument cohérente dans un profond respect de chacun et du groupe, des valeurs philosophiques du Yoga et en connexion avec la nature.
Les ateliers de communication non violente sont d'une richesse incroyable et sont soutenus par la connaissance de soi-même à laquelle le yoga nous amène doucement.
Il nous est offert la chance de partager des pratiques avec des personnes toutes aussi intéressantes les unes que les autres...
N'hésitez en aucun cas à prévoir un peu de temps pour vous offrir un soin personnel :-)
Le rythme de la semaine est très bien équilibré entre activités en groupe et possibilités de prendre un peu de temps pour soi-même!
Les repas proposés sont absolument de qualité et délicieux!
Tout cela en bonne humeur, en plaisir et en joie!
Il se fait que j'ai eu, en prime, une semaine en immersion en anglais :-) ( par choix de ma part)
Merci à toute l'équipe du fond du coeur pour ce partage sincère et profond; merci pour ces enseignements de sagesse distillés au fur et à mesure!

Avant tout, un énorme merci à nos hôtes du Frogs House (Corinne, Antoine et Benoît, sans oublier Elise) ils sont un concentré de gentillesse, ils se mettent en quatre pour vous rendre le séjour des plus agréable.
Merci également à Pily et Claudia qui ont une gentillesse, une bienveillance et douceur à la fois contagieuse et apaisante.
Je remercie le hasard de m'avoir fait découvrir cette retraite de yoga
au cours de laquelle j'ai rencontré des personnes toutes plus attachantes les unes que les autres.

Ce séjour à la FrogS’ House a été, dans tous ses aspects, une expérience très enrichissante.
Benoît, l’hôte bienveillant et, dans son sillage, Claudia, portent une attention discrète et efficace aux besoins de chacun.
Yoga matin et soir (sur place), petits déjeuners (en terrasse) pleins de couleurs et d’énergie, bain en rivière dans un décor enchanteur, ateliers, randonnées … tout était parfait.
L’excellent massage de Claudia, pour enrichir encore ce séjour, a été un vrai moment de détente et de bien-être.
Il est appréciable également de ressentir que tous les professeurs et intervenants transmettent avec naturel et engagement leurs pratiques et connaissances.
Et puis, il y a la situation de la Frogs’ House dans ce village tellement charmant et la proximité de Benoît avec les habitants qui donne le sentiment de faire partie, durant quelques jours, de cette harmonie hors du temps.
Un grand merci à tous ceux qui ont fait de ce séjour une merveilleuse parenthèse !

"Une retraite paisible et enrichissante"
Je vais essayer de parler avec mon coeur, en tout cas c’est ce que j’ai appris à la Frog’S… Il s’agissait de ma première retraite de Yoga même si j’avais déjà pratiqué… Si vous hésitez encore… et bien j’espère qu’en lisant mon commentaire vous n’aurez plus de doute…
Cette retraite m’a apportée tout ce que je pouvais désirer… retrouver mon équilibre… apprendre à se faire confiance, à s’aimer un peu plus…
Benoit est un hôte tellement attentif à ses guests…
Vous verrez la Frog’s est une bulle d’énergie où gravite de belles personnes.. Claudia, la gentillesse incarnée et son sourire est tellement apaisant, c’est avec elle que vous échangez pour les réservations. Anthony l’herboriste, qui vous fait partager avec tellement de passion ses connaissances sur les plantes et aussi vous fait toucher du doigt la méditation vipassana… Maria et Florence qui vous concoctent de délicieux plats vegan… Et j’en passe… le programme est tel, que vous découvrez plein de Yoga différents avec des profs passionnés… Bref une expérience marquante… Personnellement là-bas j’ai grandi et je me suis libérer… Quelque chose à changer… Et sans oublier mes nouvelles amies que j’ai rencontré là-bas et que je compte bien revoir….
J’allais oublié les Baou qui ont une force d’attraction folle, laissez vous guider sur leurs flans.. ils vous tendent les bras… Namasté

Après un confinement compliqué avec mes deux enfants en bas âge, cette expérience avec l'équipe de Benoît a répondu exactement à mes attentes: Recentrage sur moi-même, déconnection des réseaux sociaux, me vider la tête et l'esprit, découvrir de nouvelles choses (CNV), faire du sport (super rando), cuisiner avec un très bon chef, ne penser qu'à moi, lire, écrire, prendre le temps...
Je suis repartie reboostée, ressourcée, nourrie à tous les niveaux!
Un grand merci à Benoît, une personne cultivée, généreuse, dévouée, sincère, sans qui mon séjour n'aurait pas eu la même saveur :)
Une belle ambiance de groupe également, qui a rendu les choses naturelles et authentiques!

"Fabulous Frog’s House & around"
La Frog’s House est merveilleusement placée, à St Jeannet, un village riche d’histoire, perché sur la roche, entre la vallée et les Baous. Vue à couper le souffle. Ruelles étroites et fleuries. Mais surtout accueil hyper chaleureux de ceux qui y habitent. C’est vivant et paisible, vous serez tout de suite sous le charme.
Et à la Frog’s House tout est pensé pour que vous vous sentiez tout de suite à l’aise :
- les chambres sont claires et équipées de sdb privatives
- la nourriture est locale, saine et très gourmande. Et les chefs sont excellents ! Myriam, Sarah, Benoit et chef Marco : merci 🙏
- La salle de yoga offre une vue magnifique sur les Baous. Du coup, tous les éléments sont réunis pour que vous puissiez vous épanouir pleinement dans la maison et que vous puissiez vous concentrer sur votre pratique du yoga lors des 2 cours quotidiens.
Mais si ce n’est pas le cas, ce n’est pas grave.
Vous pourrez vous rafraîchir d’une baignade dans la mer d’Antibes, traîner sur les marchés de petits producteurs et vous régalez d’une glace artisanale en visitant la ville.
Ou vous dépensez en marchant depuis St Jeannet jusqu’au 2 Baous qui surplombent le village : là haut, au sommet du 1er Baou, vue époustouflante à 360 degrés. Et sur le Baou de la Gaude, vous pourrez vous poser sous un chêne magistral vieux de plus de 600 ans, pour un moment magique.
- Randonner aussi le long de la rivière et baignade fraîche dans les cascades.
Bref, vive la Frog’s House & sa team 💙

This is a really friendly, intimate retreat based in a lovely old house at the heart of a lively village in the hills. Benoit was a thoughtful and accommodating host, and the food was delicious too (especially the varied, shared breakfasts). This retreat nicely balances asanas and gentle physical yoga, with an introduction to meditation, Tibetan bowls and other aspects of the yogic way of life. There’s also plenty of activities to opt into - the wild swimming and picnic by a nearby river was particularly lovely.

Corrine and Benoit have created a unique yet simple retreat for the mind, body, and soul, set in the beautiful hillside looking out over Nice. If you love yoga, good food, stimulating conversation, climbing hills, swimming in rivers - getting covered in regenerating mud & the exhilaration & adrenaline of leaping off high rocks into turquoise pools - trying absinthe, swimming in the sea - then this is the holiday for you. I hope I can carry my experience for as long as possible then return periodically to top up.

"A Wonderful and Personalized Experience"
I really liked the accommodations and the attention to each person. My group was relatively small and it worked out very well. Since the size of the place isn't huge there is a natural limit. The view from my room was divine and the cooking class was so much fun. Our day-trip to the other small towns near St. Jeannet and to the Chapelle du Rosaire de Matisse in Vence were also a highlight. I should also mention the fantastic local wine which we tasted at the actual vineyard and enjoyed at the local restaurant in St. Jeannet village. There are only a restaurants in the village but they are terrific and are worthy of multiple visits during your stay.
I am not an "outdoorsy" hiker but I managed my way up the baou with the help and encouragement of Benoît and my fellow yogis. I can't say that I liked hiking but I did appreciate the challenge and the lovely picnic and conversation we had at the top of the baou.
The entire group at Frogs'House works very hard to make a lovely experience with a beautiful ease of spirit. THANK YOU!

The mix of yoga and activities is a super idea. Some people do not like the yoga, but love activities and cooking, so its a great balance for a group with different requirements.

"je recommande à 100%"
Ce n'est pas seulement un simple stage de Yoga. Benoit et toute l'équipe vous transmet toute la philosophie de vie qu'il y a derrière. Parfait pour s'évader du stress de la vie quotidienne. Ce n'est pas seulement un voyage dans la région de saint-Jeannet, c'est aussi un voyage en nous même. J'ai trouvé ce que je cherchais et plus encore. Le lieu est magique. Petit village perchée dans la montagne. Le programme est top et nous laisse également pas mal de temps libre pour pouvoir découvrir les alentours, aller faire des randonnées ou autres. Les cours de yoga sont accessible à tous (je n'en avais jamais fais avant), diversifiés et les professeurs au top. Je recommanderai vivement à ma famille et mes amis.

"Wonderful experience"
I liked the beautiful location, the very tasty home made breakfast, the sunny weather, how welcomed and relaxed I felt while I was there, the daily trips, the good vibe amongst Benoit and the other staff, the accommodation, and the peaceful yoga lessons in the church.

"Perfect yoga break outside Nice"
Benoit and his team were warm, friendly and welcoming. Located in a lovely village outside Nice, the views from the Frogshouse were fantastic and the accommodation was clean and comfortable. Being used to Iyengar yoga, I found Benoit and Jean's practice very different (more meditative and flowing) and this was a major positive for me. The sight-seeing trips were varied and fascinating and Benoit was an excellent guide. As a dietitian I was particularly pleased that good food was a focus every day.

"Excellent meditative yoga experience in incredible location"
Benoit uses a mindfulness approach to his yoga and meditation which I found to be very warm, relaxing, healing. His use of mantra during some of the morning sessions was very nice to experience. The atmosphere for the yoga was always very comfortable. Benoit was enthusiastic to talk about his own experience which gave a very personal feel to the retreat.
Benoit gave so much of himself during my stay. The excursions were very enjoyable, and he is well versed in the culture and history of the area. He has many local friends and would always introduce us to his friends, again, making it a warm, personable experience.
Jean’s yoga technique was more of a flow. He was warm, friendly and inviting.
It was lovely to meet Corrine and taste her delicious food! The kitchen in which she cooked was well appointed and they were so gracious in letting the guests use it at any time. Coffee and breakfast were great and the picnic lunch was fresh, homemade, organic......so delicious!
The village of St. Jeannet was incredibly quaint; a historic medieval village with cobblestone streets, lovely views of the valley below and the Mediterranean Sea in the far distance. I felt like I was living in a fairytale.
I highly recommend this yoga retreat experience!!!!

"A piece of french paradise"
The Frogs' House is a small and well-run place situated in a charming old mountain village (with the most beautiful baou) and I felt relaxed and welcome from the moment I arrived till the au-revoir-hugs at the airport. The yoga in the local church, the home-made food and the fun and diverse trips to the local areas were great. Benoit, thank you so much for being such a warm, open and funny host :-)

"Great week of yoga"
I have been to other yoga retreats in Asia but found this one at the FrogS House to be quite different. The chance to spend a week in an idyllic French village such as St Jeannet, in the company of Corinne, Benoit and the rest of their team, and the opportunity to talk on many interesting life relevant topics with fellow yogis was wonderful. For me the retreat was more about gaining further insight into your inner being than mastering complex physical asanas. Plenty to experience

"Happiness in Provence "
This is one of the most well rounded travel experiences I have ever had, and so much fun!! From the yoga to the culinary delights and the opportunities made available to explore the local villages & surrounds. This was complimented by the extensive range of local knowledge shared by Benoit & Corrine. I must add that the group of international travelers of varying ages that had booked into the retreat at the same time were equally impressed. I had never met these people before but now consider them to be friends.

Je n'oublierai donc jamais le village Provençal de St Jeannet avec Mr Jules qui y vit depuis 90 ans, Benoit et Corinne qui nous ont accueilli avec une sincérité hors du commun, des repas faits maison qui font du bien au corps et aux papilles, la découverte d'une région magnifique tellement bien incarnée par Benoit :) Et puis, la chance ou le hasard a fait que le groupe n'était composé que de belles personnes, tellement différentes mais qui se sont accordées si naturellement ! Je suis reconnaissante d'avoir fait partie du voyage :)

"With the Frogs !"
Everything, except the fact that I was not staying at the Frogs'house but rather 15 minutes (walk) from there. The path to the Frogs'house is Uphill, which was a bit ... challenging. The rest was very good, The Yoga lessons in the Open-Air over an elevated platform on a hill give a wonderful view of the area, the breakfast are copious, delicious, really nice sharing moments, the Hiking (with the Picnic, wonderful!) and tours around the area were very nice, at last not least the Discussions (on awareness, meditation,..) and exchange with Benoît and the other participants coming from all over the world .. short but really nice experience.

Benoit has such a positive angle to the people he hosts and is very accomodating. He prepares the time spent at FrogsHouse with challenge and excitement (maybe a little too much for people who'd like more systematic information and/or control :-)). Benoit is always there and willing to give good advice or find solution. He's an excellent guide of the area and is very present towards the people he relates to. The area is stunning. The guided hiking trips were wonderful and authentic. The sound bath was awesome too.

"Couldn't have been happier with the experience"
This was quite possibly one of the most amazing experiences of my life so far. Benoit was an absolutely incredible host and tour guide, taking our group of 6-9 people out on daily excursions all around the South of France. There is no way I could have experienced the countryside of France in this way without Benoit/the FrogSHouse! He was very knowledgable about everywhere he took us and incredibly funny and endearing. He takes very good care of his guests, making sure everyone is comfortable and happy. By the end of Day 1, our group became family. The breakfast every morning is delicious and I looked forward to it every day. The view from my balcony room overlooking the Mediterranean and the hills was ASTOUNDING. Every morning I woke up feeling like I was in a fairy tale. This trip was worth every single penny. Do yourself a favor and don't hesitate any longer to book it! I know I'll be back!!
The yoga was different from what I was used to. Benoit's style is more meditative. It focuses more on the mind and breathing. I appreciated the fact that he used other instructors so guests could experience other forms of yoga. Our days were so packed that I found it hard to wake up early the next day to get to the morning yoga, but I understand why yoga is scheduled so early- if it wasn't, we wouldn't be able to go to all the places we went to! So I don't think there was anything I didn't like- it was overall a very positive experience. Thank you, Benoit!!

"This is so much more than a yoga break "
Just back from a really fabulous 4 night stay at the Frogs House which far exceeded my expectations. Benoit and Corinne are lovely, welcoming hosts. The groups are of smallish size meaning that the yoga classes are adjusted to the group and combine all aspects of yoga including meditations. In addition - and what makes this perhaps different to other yoga trips - are the excursions into this beautiful part of France. We hiked into the surrounding hills and visited the beautiful villages perches nearby.
Benoit and Corinne share a great deal of knowledge about the history of the area and aspects of local life as they really are part of the community. I also picked this trip to enjoy fresh and local produce - Corinne makes delicious salads, jams, and yoghurts, salads which can all be enjoyed the village rose wine - which is equally good. I hope to return !

I liked the day trips and the people I met there. I was very lucky to meet very nice people on that week who made me forget why I was there; yoga.
I was lucky to have 1 hour yoga with another teacher who comes once a week, he was great.
I liked the view of my room.

The FrogsHouse has a feeling of warmth and positive energy that generates from Corinne and Benoit. Benoit is an informative guide with a quirky sense of humor, yet also a reflective yoga teacher.

The activities were great fun also and Benoit really knew his stuff! We particularly enjoyed the goats farm, Eze and the singing on the bus :)

This was a wonderful week of meditation and yoga in the most spectacular setting- a quaint village above the Côte d'Azur. I loved my accommodations at The Frog's House. Corinne and Benoit are warm and gracious hosts. I liked sitting at the breakfast table with people from around the globe.
Benoit guides the yoga and cultural experiences from a desire to share what's beautiful in us and in the world around us. I enjoyed the places he took us to that included the traditional sites and the unusual (like the picnic at the end of the mountain road at the goat cheese farm).
I loved the culinary lesson with Corinne. She provides delicious food and an atmosphere of welcome. The Frogs House is your home away from home.
I feel renewed.

"Hiking and yoga heaven in the hills of Nice"
This yoga retreat was exactly what my 23 year old daughter and I needed! I'm 59 and love yoga of all kinds, but mostly vinyasa. I have just started meditating and found that this retreat was even more helpful for that practice! There was an AMAZING hike to a waterfall with homemade lunch and local wine that was just perfect, so beautiful and idyllic. We also had a very nice tour of just a few important parts of old-Antibes, not touristy, and a great vegetarian lunch. Benoit is more than a yoga teacher, he's an extraordinary guide and historian of the area. Also very flexible in timing and offerings. I just can't say enough about Benoit, Corinne, St. Jeannet, and our lovely trip.

"FrogS' House, I'm coming back!"
I stayed at FrogS' House for 4 days after a 6 day whirlwind French Riviera sightseeing trip. This was just what I needed. Tucked far away in the beautiful mountains, with spectacular views over the whole Cote d'Azur, the charming village of St. Jeannet is an amazing location for this retreat. We started the mornings with a 7am 1.5 hour yoga session with Benoit and returned to find the most delicious breakfast spread you can imagine (my mouth is watering as I type this...). After this, we get 1-2 hours to freshen up before the daily activities start - we went to a trip to Antibes and Benoit was such a fun travel guide as well. Yoga time again at 7pm, after we hike up the steep streets of the village to get to the top of a water reservoir with sweeping views of the coast. The yoga is very relaxing so if you are expecting to sweat and do a lot of flows, beware. Although you will sweat on the way to the yoga place :) This was exactly the kind of yoga I was expecting and I loved it. I wasn't expecting though that this will be such a fun experience altogether, with all the fun trips and getting to know all the other travelers. I was expecting a few yoga sessions here and there in the beautiful French countryside, but it was so much more. Benoit and Corinne are so friendly and helpful that even if you barely speak a common language, they will make you feel at home (this last sentence to summarize my mom's experience!)

Corrine and Benoit combine their expertise and warmth in food, the local area, history, and yoga. More than a retreat, they had an itinerary for each day! Travels up and down serpentine roads to villages, Nice, the beach, even including a wonderfully prepared picnic in a special setting with spectacular view. After a full day, left to wander St. Jeanette and be part of a lived village, it was complete with what could be a Michelin rated restaurant. Truly a unique experience!
