Fitness Fun and More with Jenny McClendon

April 23-May 2, 2025 (departing May 3rd)

This workshop is FULL. Wait-listed Only. 

YES!!! We can finally announce that Jenny McClendon is coming back to Tuscany in 2025!

If you have worked out with Jenny, either online or in person, you know how FUN she is, and how knowledgeable. Now you will have an opportunity to work directly with her in Italy, because she is coming back!!!

That’s right! Jenny will be back for another 10-day retreat in Tuscany that will include everything you could ask for in an active holiday: fitness, education, meditation, fun, food, adventure and new friends. Oh yes, and incredible Italian food and wines!

But if you don’t know her, let me share a bit about this amazing instructor…

Jenny is a licensed Physical Therapist with over 20 years’ experience in Outpatient Orthopedics and 30 years teaching. The creator of Jenny Fit Start, a booming YouTube channel for active seniors with many different and fun videos that have amassed over 10 million views collectively, Jenny has been recognized by both Glamour magazine and Oprah Winfrey Magazine as the best You Tube Fitness Workout Video for 2021!

Being a physical therapist and movement coach, with a passion for active seniors, Jenny is a powerhouse of knowledge, experience and inspiration. This workshop will get you moving in a gentle, but effective manner, based on your level of ability. You will share days with like-minded women who want to be physically fit and healthy, while eating a balanced and locally-sourced diet in our area well-known for its healthy, fresh food.

This retreat is designed to inspire you and revitalize you. (What a gift to give yourself, or someone you love!)

During your 10-day retreat in our UNESCO World Heritage Site villa, if you are an early riser, you’ll be able to participate in dynamic morning stretches with Jenny or possibly a meander up the lane flanked by some of the farm’s olive trees, and likely accompanied by some of the neighboring sheep dogs, who will ensure that you do not “stray.” After a buffet breakfast, Jenny will lead the group in 1-2 hours of classes which can include low impact aerobics, senior boot camp, boxing, line dancing, yoga, meditation, and more.

Later, after a nutritious lunch prepared with fresh, local produce, we often explore the beautiful sights, surroundings and villages. We may wander some of the charming shops or artists’ studios or tour a local abbey.  Or perhaps we will visit the famous Bagni San Filippo for a dip in the thermal hot springs. There will be opportunities to taste and savor the cheeses and sausages prepared in our local cheese factory and macelleria (butcher).

And one day we will have a personal tour of the owner’s private cantina in our walled village along with a brief history (in English!). You may have a chance to greet his 103-year-old mom!

Even though this is Jenny’s third visit with us here, we are selecting some new locations to visit…so if you are one of the previous participants, know that you will be seeing places that likely will be new to you. And yes, of course, some of the favorite standards will still be included.

This is an all-inclusive* workshop, with just a few exceptions. For instance, there are 4 meals that are not included, when we are out for the entire day sight-seeing. This allows people to choose when and where to have their lunch or dinner (depending on the outing) or not.
