"At the beginning of this year I did something completely out of my comfort zone. I signed up for a yoga and surf retreat, together with 10 other women. I hadn't had much experience with yoga before and I had never seen a surfboard up close. I started my week's holiday in Portugal with a little heart but a lot of enthusiasm. Little did I know, it was everything (and more) my body and head needed! Charlotte is a wonderful hostess and a super good teacher! The magical place where we stayed, the delicious food we were served every day, the relaxing yoga and meditation classes (for all levels), the challenging surfing lessons and the hot but beautiful walks. A good balance between relaxing and going all out, the overall picture was just right. I'm a fan, a nice gift for myself! I couldn't resist and registered again!"
- Nele, Belguim
"I joined the Yoga, Surf and Hike Retreat and absolutely loved it! Charlotte took the best care of us and made everyone feel welcome. The yoga was very well explained and easy to follow. There was no pressure in "mastering" anything. The food was amazing and they prepared everything gluten free for me and they were well educated on how to prepare celiac safe meals! My mind and my body were able to calm down during this week and even now I still implement certain things in my everyday life. Thank you!"
- Sarah, Switzerland
Over the last 8 years, our instructor has been sharing her knowledge and personal experiences as a yoga student and teacher in classes, workshops, as a primary teacher for YTTs in Bali, and during retreats in Spain and Portugal.
