Beyond the Festival

Giocosamente Festival is our annual gathering. But the work of playfulness, personal growth, and authentic connection doesn’t stop there. Throughout the year, we offer retreats, workshops, and online experiences — deeper dives for those who want to live this philosophy beyond the festival.

Our retreats, workshops, and festivals share one conviction: your health and aliveness improve most through genuine connection and playfulness. If you’re searching for that – whether you’re a play enthusiast, an early retiree, or just tired of the hustle – we create spaces where you can find it.

Giocosamente - The Art of Living Playfully

This four-week live online journey takes the Giocosamente experience deeper — into your actual life.

You’ve felt playfulness in the field. Now discover it as an art you can cultivate every day — at home, in your relationships, in the choices you make. Through conversation, practice, and genuine connection with others on the same path, you’ll learn to bring this quality into every corner of your life. Whether you want to deepen Whether you want to deepen what you felt at Giocosamente — or explore this philosophy in real time for the first time — this is where the work becomes yours.

How the Coaching Works

Your Path Through Playfulness

The Playful Path is built on three pillars. We work through each one — not as separate topics, but as an integrated unfolding of your aliveness.

Through live sessions, playful practices, and real conversations, you move through this journey. Not in a straight line — playfulness has its own rhythm, its own logic. And you emerge on the other side knowing that aliveness was never something to chase. It was something to allow.

FREEDOM – FUN – FINDING YOUR CALLING

Pirates of Play: A 5-Day Reclamation

You’ve spent decades being sensible. Reliable. Measured. Now what?

This retreat is for people who can feel something stirring — a call to be bolder, jollier, more themselves — but haven’t given themselves permission to answer it yet. We’re using the pirate frame literally: you’re stepping into wild coastal landscapes, roaring ocean, tavern culture, and genuine adventure. But what you’re really doing is claiming back the playfulness you were taught to suppress. Sea salt. Stories. Movement. A crew ready to reclaim what matters. And the slow clarity of what’s calling you next.
