The FLEX&FLOW® Retreat x Hotel Schwarzschmied
November 8th - November 12th, 2026 • Hotel Schwarzschmied • South Tirol, Italy
Imagine stepping into a space where design meets soul, where movement is art, and where you can reconnect deeply to your body in a season of golden transformation.
With Jessica Klimach as your guide, the founder of the FLEX&FLOW® method, you’re invited to stay at the serene and architecturally stunning Hotel Schwarzschmied for a four-night immersive retreat that elevates strength, mobility, and presence.
The students who experience this kind of immersive retreat all have one thing in common: They’re done settling. Done guessing. And once they fully engage with FLEX&FLOW®, everything shifts.
They leave feeling stronger, lighter, more confident, and finally in sync with their body again. This retreat isn’t just a moment — it’s a turning point.
Sculpted strength. Fluid Mobility. Deep Reconnection.
What to expect
Eight Curated Sessions · Five Transformative Days
Sculpted Strength. Fluid Mobility. Intelligent, Elevated Movement.
Your FLEX&FLOW® Retreat unfolds as a thoughtfully designed journey combining science-based movement, mindful recovery, curated experiences, and deep reconnection. Each of the eight sessions has been intentionally sequenced to build upon the day before—creating measurable breakthroughs in strength, mobility, and body awareness.
Every morning awakens you into clarity and energy.
Every evening grounds you into strength and integration.
Every day invites you deeper into yourself.
Beyond the mat, you’ll experience the refined calm of Hotel Schwarzschmied: nourishing slow-food meals, serene spa rituals, panoramic views, and the quiet luxury of a place where design, lifestyle, and nature seamlessly intertwine.
This retreat is about movement—but it’s also so much more.
What makes this retreat unique
✓ Science-Based Sessions That Transform How You Move Each FLEX&FLOW® class blends resistance training, dynamic mobility, strength, breath, and nervous-system regulation. Expect intentional progressions that build daily and breakthroughs you can truly feel.
✓ Genuine community with like-minded movers who value intention over intensity and depth over distraction.
✓ Morning Activation, Evening Integration Morning sessions ignite energy, clarity, and alignment. Evening sessions invite grounding, control, and softness.
✓ A Space Designed for Restoration Between sessions, enjoy nourishing meals at Schwarzschmied’s slow-food restaurant, unwind in the Susanne Kaufmann Spa, and immerse yourself in the quiet elegance of minimalist architecture surrounded by vineyards and autumn colors.
The Magic of November
November at Schwarzschmied is a season of quiet transformation. Vineyards and orchards glow in amber and ochre — a reminder of nature’s cycles and the beauty of letting go. Crisp mornings give way to warm low-sun light as you move outdoors or explore the grounds. The spa’s saunas and steam rooms offer a cocooning counterbalance to your FLEX&FLOW® sessions.
This isn’t just about finding time for a retreat — it’s about choosing the right time.
November 8–12 is your window: the last warmth before winter, the quiet before the holiday rush. Step away, move with intention, and invest in yourself before everything else takes over.
The question isn’t whether you need this reset. The question is: will you take it?
The FLEX&FLOW® Method
Created by Jessica Klimach, FLEX&FLOW® is a powerful, science-backed movement system that blends functional strength, fluid mobility, and nervous system support into a method that works for real life.
It's not yoga. Not Pilates. Not barre. It's the evolution beyond them.
This method:
Builds lean strength without creating stiffness
Unlocks mobility through strength
Enhances posture, joint control, and balance
Feels both energizing and restorative - within the same session
Born out of Jessica's own journey overcoming injury, chronic stiffness, and plateaus from traditional training, FLEX&FLOW® helps you move better, feel stronger, and live with more physical freedom.
“Attending Jessica's FLEX&FLOW® classes has been a transformative experience for me. Not only do I feel more attuned to my body during class, but I've noticed significant positive changes since I started. The progress has been quick, and Jessica's unique teaching method sets her classes apart. What I appreciate the most is her effectiveness as a teacher and the positive impact it has had on my overall well-being.”

Meet your Teacher
Jessica Klimach
After years of nagging back pain, unstable hips, and trying every “right” method—from yoga to gym workouts—Jessica still felt stuck and inconsistent. She craved strength and mobility, but everything seemed like a trade-off.
So, she created what she couldn’t find herself.
FLEX&FLOW® is the method Jessica wishes had existed when she felt depleted, unmotivated, and held back. It’s designed for people who are done wasting time on routines that don’t deliver—or that they can’t stick to—and who are ready for a smarter way to move: one that gets real results without the rigidity.
With just two intentional sessions a week, her clients build lean, sculpted strength, unlock lasting mobility, and feel energized—not drained. If someone has hit a wall in their practice or can’t seem to stay consistent, FLEX&FLOW® offers the shift they’ve been waiting for.
Jessica is passionate about empowering others to move stronger, freer, and more confidently—through every phase of life.
