Lockdown life got you feeling caged, purposeless, disconnected? What day is it anyway..? Is it 11 am yet? Have you explored every walking path in your 5km radius or, you don’t even know how to interact with people anymore? I have experienced pretty much all of the above, you’re not alone! This is why I have teamed up with an amazing crew to bring you a day to remember.
If you're craving a bit of an escape, looking to unplug from this lockdown, recharge your batteries and have a bit of fun trying new things, we have put together the perfect day for you!
Join Amber Gouzy, Marine Geraud, and Danilo Bueno on a 1-day retreat to tease your adventurous side and fill your cup. We offer you a balanced mix of playful and grounding activities accessible from the comfort of your home or in your favourite outdoor spot!
Hint: Think mindfulness techniques, playful inversions, solo or partner workouts and more!
Do the full day or do each class at your convenience
Been feeling a bit stressed, restless, uneasy and lost in those times of uncertainty? So have we.
Imagine waking up on the day of our virtual retreat, it will be a beautiful sunny day and after your flavoursome morning coffee you login to find a bunch of other cool cats on the private facebook group, all pumped and ready to share a beautiful day together.
We are meeting for a grounding and energising morning priming meditation which will be hosted in nature to help you feel like you’re evading. This is going to be a good day!
You already feel re-energised and ready to tackle the next workshop, a hot bootey workout to make these activewear we now live in hit different! ;)
All fired up from the bootey camp, you feel more ready than ever to learn to see things from a different angle… The upside-down angle to be exact! This playful class has you in full excitement and disbelief that you were able to achieve so much so quickly. You’re an inversion superstar!! By now.. You are mastering that retreat dance too!
Time for a well-deserved lunch break, maybe in the sun if you are able to go to an outside area, your retreat hosts have shared some yummy recipes to nourish those muscles you didn’t even know you had!
Let the afternoon kick-off. You’re now invited to join the mindful Tantra circle to learn and discuss the art of connecting to yourself more deeply than ever before.
Finally, to wind down the day before hitting the bottle of cool wine (because it is all about balance ;) You welcome the gentle Yin practice with a closing meditation specifically designed to help you balance your inner emotional world.
As the retreat closes and you go on with your Sunday afternoon, you can hardly believe you had such a great day in lockdown and are now part of such a nice online community.
You can’t wait to meet some of them in real life once allowed!
Our Day Together
Journey to ReConnect...
How great would it be to be able to maintain a productive day whilst cultivating a healthy body and mind in lockdown?
Pretty amazing right!
With a wide range of both energy building and grounding movement practices, you’ll reconnect with your body like you haven't in a while!
In only a couple of hours, you’ll feel re-energised and ready to reboot your lockdown life so you can keep being as busy WFH, Banana bread Baking or Netflix binging as you like without having to worry about burning out!
How good would it be to be able to take a break from lockdown, whilst staying active and without "essential walks" FOMO?
Oh-So-Freaking-Good!
Sure, you’ll get to chill this Sunday, but we will also “get physical” with a mix of fun sporting activities, you will get to not only deeply de-stress but also have a lot of fun!
Helping you find your right balance so you never get FOMO again for the rest of this lockdown!

Stay Yin (1H)
A gentle Yin class to finish the day and wind down before we open some wine to celebrate the end of the retreat!
