Transformation Retreat in Greece
18th - 25th May 2025
If you feel like treating yourself to a fully-inclusive Pilates and Mindfulness Retreat in a luxurious villa, with stunning views across the ocean then this is the trip for you.
Imagine staying up in the hills, enveloped by the sound of nature, enjoying exquisite Mediterranean food without having to organise a thing. Well except whether to have a massage or write in your journal or take a day trip somewhere beautiful.
I have been running exclusive, small group retreats for nine years now and our aim is to offer a transformational experience to our guests.

Testimonials
Hello beautiful Lindy, what a lovely message to get and hold on to. I had 4 private clients cancel today 🤬 so I kept thinking of the retreat and all the wisdom you gave us and tried not to let it get to me 😬
This last retreat was very special. It’s always a lottery who is going to be there and how we come together, but although we were all so different it worked, and that’s all because of you. I’ve never met someone who can so gently and beautifully bring out the best in everyone. There was so much laughter (you dancing at Amente was THE BEST), but the tears we had were also so valuable and important. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this week. In the last retreat I sorted a big thing out in my head although I didn’t open up as much as I did this time. This time I felt all the anxiety I’d been feeling and all the emotion being coaxed out of me and calm and peace replacing it. I feel that I don’t have the words to express enough how wonderful you were to all of us. I saw in the week how everyone slowly peeled away layers (even the one that seemed to be sorted 😬) and we became our true selves…. It’s not easy to expose who we really are! You are so much fun too and we all aspire to be a little bit like you.
I can see how your retreat is more about mindfulness and exploration of ourselves than it was a few years ago. You were made for this. I think we all secretly wanted to be better because of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me come back and be more grateful for my family and my life 🙏🏻😘😘

Coming on this retreat has been the most compassionate gift
of headspace to myself. Everythig has been expertly considered to create a
tranquil, blissful experience with space for both fun as a group and powerful personal
growth.
Lindy is the ideal retreat hostell and I feel very blessed to have found my way here.
I'm returning refreshed and re-energised and probably fitter!

Dear Lindy,
Having been home a couple of weeks and reflected on our trip I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful week it was. It was so well organised, varied and relaxing and I know you put a lot of work into making it a special week for us all.
I still feel an inner peace and when I get the monkey brain remember the breathing and mindfulness!
I learnt so much about myself and can see a clearer path forward now.
Thank you for making it such a wonderful week - the memories will always be with me.
Mandy, May 2022
