A cool morning mist lifts off Lake Como as the group gathers near Villa Melzi’s wrought-iron gates; the lake threads itself between mountains, daring you to slow your breath. This Bellagio experience pairs a 1.5-hour Kundalini yoga and meditation session with an Italian hilltop lunch and entry to Villa Melzi’s lakeside gardens, all guided by a qualified I.K.I.T.A. instructor in a small group of up to six.
