About the centre
Soul Agenda was the very first yoga studio to experience Zensi Retreat!
This is where luxury meets mindful living.Where nature is a lifestyle, and the agenda is to give yourself what you need.
Get ready for high end architectural design with the concept and ethos of mindful living, carefully considered design to evoke your senses with every detail having an intention, creating the foundation for your mind and body to be able to relax and unravel, whilst enjoying the amenities such as custom sauna, custom spa, pool, fire-pit, beautiful back roads to wander. All amongst vast open views that give you the sense of breathing freely, spaciousness.
Sometimes the biggest challenge is to allow ourselves to have a break, to prioritise rest and play, and to invest into our overall well-being.
Zensi Retreat is a 33 acre property nestled within the award winning Mudgee wine region. The bustling town is only 15 minutes away if you do want to venture out, though we encourage guests to fully immerse within the sacred retreat experience!
The only task we require of you is to relax and relish in the slower pace whilst we take care of the rest.. If we can ask of anything though, it is to say hello to the miniature horses and animals on the land!
The whole property is yours to have you space to breathe, and the long quiet back roads are great for a wander.

Teachers
– Christina & Nell –
Nell Wengert
Yoga Instructor | Meditation | Body worker
Nell as the owner of Soul Agenda Yoga is a heart-led, community-minded Inner West local, as well as Mum to joyous 5-year-old boy Vinny.
“Teaching and sharing my love of Yoga is a blessing, one that began after a truly inspiring 1000km trek I undertook in Spain (Camino de Santiago). I am a full-time practitioner and teacher of yoga, specialising in Hatha, Vinyasa, Prenatal Yoga, Postnatal Yoga, Mums and Bubs, Bikram Yoga, Yin Yoga, Kids Yoga, Inferno Pilates, Breath-work, Yoga Massage, Sound Healing and Animal-Flow.”
Christina Ahmnos
Yoga Instructor
Christina is a student, practitioner, teacher of Yoga and mum to 2 year old Alex. After developing a personal practice over 10 years, Christina decided she wanted to share her love of yoga and embarked on her first teacher training in Sydney. Studying under the Jivamukti lineage, she completed her 200HR TT. She then returned to London to work as a karma yogi at TriYoga – one of the largest yoga schools in the world. Here, she was fortunate enough to study under the care of incredible teachers and to immerse herself in as many styles of yoga as she could find! From London she journeyed to Seattle and dove into an Ashtanga practice. From Seattle she travelled to Los Angeles and took classes at every studio she came by. It was in LA that her love for Tantra and Kirtan really blossomed. From Los Angeles, she travelled to the source, India and completed her 500HR TT in Vinyasa Flow.
Christina’s classes are uplifting, passionate and joyful and come from a place of personal spiritual exploration, creative expression and the constant (often challenging) lessons of daily life.
Her classes bind thoughtful and creative sequencing, philosophy and mantra, some seriously good tunes, physical and emotional exploration as well as a good dose of humour to create a challenging experience that provokes and acquaints us with our truest nature; one of joy, compassion and kindness.
Christina hopes that by creating and sharing this sacred space, we will together be equipped to take the lessons of yoga off the mat and out into the world.
May we be healthy, may we be happy, may we be kind.
Our Chef
– Alex –
Alexander Barthelmae
Chef and Vinnys stepdad
We suspect that Alexander feeds mainly on stress-reducing St. John’s wort and spends his free time in deep meditation. There is no other way to explain his enormous composure. This man cannot be brought out of his calmness. Even in the most hectic situations, he doesn’t let anything go to waste and masters challenges precisely and refreshingly creatively.
Since his early youth, Alexander has preferred to live out his creativity in the culinary world. While still at school, he got a taste of the world of upscale gastronomy, then completed his chef’s training in a gourmet temple, and later deepened his knowledge during an employment in India. After his return, he worked as a private chef for the hotel owner “Les Trois Rois” and continued his education to become a “Specialist in dietetics”.
