Monte-Carlo’s first ever two-day wellness festival offers a unique experience, unlike any the French Riviera has hosted before. Focusing on the Elements Fire, Earth, Air and Water to help balance your mind, body and connection to the planet.
In Your Element Wellness Festival takes place on 6th & 7th July 2019 at the stylish boutique Columbus Hotel, and one of the best equipped fitness clubs in the French Riviera, World Class Gym. Outdoor classes and workshops will also be held in the stunning setting of Monte-Carlo, an ideal setting to experience all the elements.
FINDING BALANCE IN THE ELEMENTS
FIRE: your energy, action, strength and movement
EARTH: your body, our planet and nourishment
AIR: your life-force, faith and trust
WATER: your creativity, flow and imagination.
The four elements serve as powerful guides on how-to live-in synergy with nature. Every breath of air relaxes us. Fire gives us strength and energy. We learn to flow and be more fluid like water. The earth reminds us to heal and nourish ourselves. When we align with the four elements, we become more present and tap into the wisdom of life itself.
The festival has a local focus on Monaco’s principles of marine ecosystem preservation, as well as a more expansive look into awareness of waste, sustainability, and mindful eating, visitors will learn how to use the elements to elevate their lives but also how to preserve their rich natural state.
An exciting list of partners ensure guests are experiencing the excitement of Monaco as well as insight to the latest trends in health and fitness from visiting London experts. Football coaching with FMC Football Academy hosting kids of all ages; ICI Salad bars producing bespoke FIRE, EARTH, AIR &WATER salad boxes created by our nutritionists for the weekend. Practice some mindful movement at our Silent Disco on the terrace of Monaco’s iconic STARS’N BARS overlooking the world-famous port. Just some of the classes on offer over the weekend.
