About The Retreat
Experience the beauty of the Atlantic ocean and the serenity of 275 acres of farmland, just a short flight to Lisbon or Faro followed by a 2 hour drive. During the day you’ll have space to relax, explore, wander, bike, swim, windsurf, hike, read… whatever your soul needs. A typical day will include a beautiful Vinyasa class to wake you up each morning, followed by a refreshing dip in the freshwater lake. We’ll also hold a yoga clinic for keen beans who want extra attention, so you can get practical hands-on help with a posture and deepen your practice. We’ll finish up the evening with a restorative Yin class (made even more dreamy by Siew Yue Rivaux, adjustment and massage master). There will also be a pizza party thanks to the next-level woodfired pizza oven, plus an outdoor movie night!

Frequently Asked Questions
I get hangry - is it all juices and salads?
Um no. I like food. Really good delicious food. This is a farm to fork. So if you're after fasting/juice retreat this won't be for you.
Is it ok to have a lie in and skip a yoga session if I want?
Our pet hate is being told what to do and when. So, if you want to lie in and skip a practice that is absolutely fine. It's your retreat to enjoy exactly as you want.
Do you have to be more than a beginner to come on your retreat?
Absolutely not. Come exactly as you are. The retreat will have a mixture of women of all levels from those who have never stepped on a mat before to those who practice more frequently.
Is it weird if I come on retreat alone? (Will it be awkward?)
No. Not at all. Many women come alone. What I can tell you is you'll meet some incredible women and make some good friends.
Do I need to be in really good shape to come?
No. You can decide to be a Sweaty Betty or take it easy. You do you. I give so many options that you can make things as challenging or as chilled as you like.

A memorable, life changing experience. It would be an understatement to say that it’s been an incredible week– it’s been that and so much more! Thank you so much for an amazing week of yoga in this incredible location with the most beautiful, authentic and diverse group of women.

I get a lot out of Steph’s classes and enjoy them so much that I attend a minimum of three times a week. Do you realise what an amazing week you gave us? I will cherish it for a long time! Thank you so much for making this happen. The yoga was as usual amazing (having such an impact on our lives). This place is magic and the group that you assembled is unique. We had fun, we met amazing people and we now all feel amazingly well.

What can I say other than AWESOME. I did my first headstand, my first handstand and I made some amazing friends! Will I be back? Without hesitation.
