SUN Retreat 2026

October 18-23, 2026

________________________________________________

  Theme:

  The HeART of Coaching

  

    Italy is, among other things, a land rich in art.

    Many outstanding figures in all fields of art were born and

    created their masterpieces here: music, painting, science,

    philosophy, literature, mechanics, architecture, sculpture,

    engineering, navigation, geography, medicine, physics,

    teaching, cooking, ...

    Also Coaching is certainly an ART. But art (in English) also

    sounds like HEART, and there can be no art or coaching

    without putting your heart into it.

    In this Retreat we want to explore, among other things, the

    connection between Coaching, Art, and the Heart.


 

  Join the Retreat and let's PLURK this together!

    Ideas for what to do Before or After the Retreat

    These suggestions are meant to help you make the most of your time in the area before or after the Retreat. They are not part of the official retreat program, but can enrich your stay if you wish to explore the city and its surroundings.


    SAN LEO

    It is a small village with a glorious past that can be relived by visiting the main historical sites such as the Fort, with its exhibitions, the Parish Church of Santa Maria Assunta, one of the oldest religious buildings in the entire Montefeltro area, and the adjacent Medici Palace. We also recommend visiting the Cathedral of San Leone, a medieval church that is an important example of Romanesque-Lombard architecture.

    An interesting fact about the Fortress of San Leo is that it was the place of imprisonment, until his death, of Giuseppe Balsamo, known as the Count of Cagliostro, a mysterious character, alchemist, and esotericist around whom numerous legends circulate.


    SAN MARINO

    San Marino, officially the Most Serene Republic of San Marino, also known as the Republic of San Marino, is a landlocked country in southern Europe, located in the north-central part of the Italian peninsula, on the border between the regions of Emilia-Romagna and Marche, and constitutes an enclave within Italy.

    With an area of 61.19 km² and 34,132 residents, it is one of the least populous member states of the Council of Europe and the United Nations; it is also the fifth smallest state in the world in terms of area and is one of the so-called European microstates. The capital is the City of San Marino, the official language is Italian, and the San Marino dialect is also spoken. The inhabitants are called Sanmarinese. The most populous castle is Serravalle (240 inhabitants), while the least populous is Montegiardino (992 inhabitants).


    URBINO

    Urbino is an Italian municipality with 13,867 inhabitants, capital of the province of Pesaro and Urbino in the Marche region.

    It was one of the most important centers of the Italian Renaissance, whose architectural heritage it has fully preserved. Since 1998, its historic center has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Given its artistic importance, the city is commemorated in the series of sculptures in the Vittoriano, dedicated to the fourteen noble cities of united Italy.


    PARCO NATURALE REGIONALE DEL SASSO SIMONE E DEL SIMONCELLO 

    The Sasso Simone and Simoncello Interregional Nature Park is a protected natural area located in the heart of Montefeltro.

    The hilly landscape of Montefeltro is suddenly interrupted by the imposing peaks of Sasso Simone (in Tuscany) and Simoncello (in the Marche region). Starting from the village of Carpegna, there are trails for all levels of difficulty. Families can opt for a walk to the Hermitage of Carpegna, while more experienced hikers can tackle the climbs to the summits of the Sassi. The park protects a precious Turkey oak forest and the enchanting beech forest of Pianacquadio.
