Tenerife is the largest of Spain’s Canary Islands, a 3-4 hour flight from most destinations. Everyday life makes it difficult to dedicate enough time and concentration to look after yourself. Make us your next trip and kick start a new you, ideal for solo travelers who would like to meet like minded individuals and make an investment in your mind and body.

In Tenerife, you will be free from your everyday distractions to focus purely on yourself. The best investment you can ever make is investing in your health and fitness!!

Our Fitness retreats are a carefully designed exercise program, set in the beautiful countryside of the stunning Canary Islands.  Tenerife has a fantastic climate allowing us to train outdoors all year round. The island has spectacular views and some of the most beautiful scenery in europe including but not limited to the volcano Mount Teide, Anaga National Park, and the cliffs of Los Gigantes.  All of this plus the stunning beaches of the south of the island.
Book your next trip with us and at the end of your holiday you will leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated with a new group of friends.

Do we offer weight loss holidays?

If you are looking to get fit and lose weight then our program is ideal for you. We don’t focus specifically on weight loss – it’s more the result of everything that you do during your time here.

Here we do our Bootcamp Holidays differently. Our focus is on high intensity training that is enjoyable, mixed with a healthy eating program that you can easily maintain when you go home. We take some measurements on arrival so you can see your improvements.

What hours do we train? Will I get any free time?

Most of our clients arrive here in sunny Tenerife on either Saturday or Sunday. Whatever day you arrive you will have the weekend to relax. There is a swimming pool at the accommodation or the beach is just a 10 minutes walk away. Training starts Monday morning 07:30. The Program runs Monday to Friday with 3 to 5 sessions per day including  yoga classes, which will work your full body and calm your mind.  If you are looking for a specific variation of workout we can offer you personal training with our professional fitness instructors at an additional cost.

Each day you will finish by 1:00 pm or 2:00 pm at the latest.  This means you have all afternoon as downtime or for the hardcore elite this is when we can provide you with personal training classes or additional yoga sessions. In your downtime you can sunbathe, enjoy some of Tenerife’s spectacular excursions, go shopping or just sleep! More info on local trips, excursions, massages & Spa treatments is available on request. Or if you are a Digital Nomad or an online worker this fitness vacation would be perfect for you as you can train in the morning and work in the afternoon.

Real people. Real results.

We are not a fitness group of supermodels photo shopped to look perfect for Instagram. Our clients are everyday people exactly like you. We believe that under the correct circumstances and with the right support from our personal trainers that people are capable of much more then they believe. Once you break through that limiting mindset you will open yourself up to a more positive and fulfilling life.

The majority of our clients come to us believing they want to “lose Weight or Get Fitter”. In reality they want to change something about themselves or their lives… we give them the tools to do it! . Which is proven by the huge percentage of our clients who book their next trip with us time and time again.

Private apartment accommodation:

Having a private apartment allows you the space you need to relax after your fitness classes. You can set your timetable for eating, sleeping, or just chilling out.

"My second boot camp in Tenerife. One of the best holidays I have had. Steve and the rest of the team are really friendly. The beach boot camps were really good fun and suitable for all fitness levels. The pad training is great for general fitness and technique training. All facilities are clean and well-equipped. I am already planning my next trip."

"I love the Bootcamp! I just spent 2 weeks there, it was my second time at the camp and I am now even more enthusiastic about it! The workouts, the food, the accomodation, everything is great - and of course the people. It's a lot of training but the mood is so good that you just want to attend all the classes! I have achieved great results in 2 weeks and I'm sure I'm gonna visit again the camp."

Itinerary

Daily training schedule

Beach boot camp - Meet like-minded individuals out in the fresh air on the beautiful beaches of south Tenerife. High Intensity Interval Training which guarantees a full body workout. After a ten-minute warm-up to gently get the body moving, we start our fitness routine using bodyweight exercises. Such as squats, press ups, lunges, mountain climbers, and burpees, all of which are designed to push your heart rate up to a fat-burning level. These are group fitness classes that also have the added benefit of creating great camaraderie in a fun-hearted environment. This beach class is a great way to kick-start your day with like-minded people. Friday morning is our most popular of all the fitness classes as it's Navy Seals Training in the ocean.

Pad work - These are gym-based fitness classes, offering a mixture of High Intensity Interval Training and fight-based boxing/kickboxing style sessions. Generally, the work is done with a partner, you will learn all different types of striking and posture. This is designed to give you better body awareness, and more confidence to deal with an attack situation. This style of training also helps to improve your fitness levels and general well-being. You will learn combinations from fighting styles such as different punches and how to use your elbows and knees, you will also learn how to move the pads for your partner giving you better focus and coordination.

Krav Maga - Krav Maga is a self defense system, designed and used by the Israeli Military. It is made up of the most effective points of various fighting styles from all around the world. The concept is to teach people how to deal with violent attacks in a variety of circumstances and to do the maximum damage in the minimum time. These classes start with a 15 minute full body warm up given by our expert team of instructors, to create core strength and improved fitness levels. You do not have to be super fit to do this kind of training, but over time it will greatly improve your fitness levels. You will learn to deal with situations such as street attacks, grabs and strangles, various weapon attacks such as knives, bottles and sticks. You will also learn how to put this training into real life situations during sparring sessions and ground fighting scenarios. This training will give you increased confidence to deal with violent situations should they ever arise in your every day life.

Circuits - Our fitness instructors will design different circuits to work your full body. This is High Intensity Interval Training, using free weights, Kettle Bells, medicine balls, TRX, battle ropes, to give you a superb range of fitness classes. A typical example is 30 seconds on one station done at maximum velocity with a 15 second rest before moving to the next station. This kind of fitness routine has been proven to be extremely beneficial not only to your physical health but also to your mental well being. During this class we also do a lot of stomach work such as various types of sit ups to help strengthen the core.

Yoga classes - We offer Yoga Sessions on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons in the gym. Vanessa our fully qualified yoga instructor will help you stretch off and release the tensions following your fitness classes. This is a great way to relax the mind and body and help give you balance. These two sessions are suitable for people of any ability and with any type of injury and can be adapted to suit every client. This is a gentle form of exercise to allow you to relax and recuperate after all of the High Intensity Interval training that you will have completed during your fitness classes every day. We offer yoga mats so it is not necessary to bring your own, this is done in a quiet relaxing comfortable environment.
